Injuries considered, 2 points isn't the worst outcome. Better than being swept, less than a split. 8 games left, 24 big points to go. Let's heal up a week and then go after 'em! Think we do use 2 forwards a lot of times but the 2 D thing was just matchup wise with Denver. Trying to limit any chance of a clean break or odd man rush for Borgstrom, Gambrell, and Terry. Quote
bcblues Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Horses for courses. Especially with our "offensive minded" defense-men that makes sense to me. Quote
Wilbur Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Ill agree that the guys in suits probably hurt line set up in the three on three. Bast, Jones, and Rhett probably all see the ice 3-3. You could go 14-8-6, then 19-24-2, and then 4-22-9. On a separate note, how is Borgstrom not on team Sweden in Korea? Quote

Actually he is right. I was thinking the same thing last week when the Vikings lost .... it was obviously Cam’s, and only Cam’s, fault. Quote

Keep drinking the Kool-aid, The kid has had one good year. And that year he had an all world team in front of him. I know, it's crazy how much worse his numbers are than Thome's on conference play! Oh wait..... Quote
Oxbow6 Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Last 35 minutes of regulation and 5 minute OT were some on the best "compete"/effort stretches I've seen in a long time from this team. Build on that please! 2 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 Cam's gaff cost this team 2 points tonight. He didn't need to stand on his head. He made some good saves but there were a lot less Grade A chances by DU tonight. The first goal he let in was unexcusable. This team has a razor thin margin of error from loss to tie to win. That was evident tonight. With everyone out of the lineup this team played as solid of a game as could be expected. They deserved a better fate tonight. 3 Quote

Well, to be fair, if Cam had only tackled Diggs, the Saints would have been playing against the Eagles last weekend. 1 1 Quote

Build on that please! Yes. Denver’s coaches are going to have fun showing their team clips of their better players getting out worked at times by no name UND guys later in the game. Bowen was on the ice a few shifts Borgstrom’s line was and he was the hardest working guy out there. I think Poolman was tremendous this weekend. Matched up constantly against guys who will be in the NHL next year and he was rock solid. Team gives up 4 goals in 130 minutes against that team and less than 50 shots on goal total for the weekend. Now if we could score.... Quote

Denver could have had 2-3 more goals tonight. I just think tying Denver 1-1....could never really be the goalies fault. Quote

I think the problem is our lack of offensive firepower amplifies any mistake Cam makes. Our goalies are going to have to be really good from here on out along with the team defense. 3 Quote

brianvf Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 3-way tie for 3rd now between UND, UMD, and WMU. All teams played 16 games except 2nd SCSU and last Miami (both at 14 games). UND's best shot for home ice would probably be to beat WMU, which has been struggling after losing a couple players to season-ending injuries. Then they'd probably see WMU at home for first round. Need to take this week off and hopefully get healthy. With how offensively challenged this team is, we need Jones, Gardner, and Bast. Quote

Yeah, I meant to pass them in the standings...it could shape up to be something like DU, SCSU, UMD, UND, WMU or similar and then UND gets WMU for first round. We'll see, still a lot of hockey to be played. Quote

Oxbow6 Posted January 28, 2018 Posted January 28, 2018 2 ties vaulted UND all the way up to #12 in the Pairwise. ...........oh wait that's where they were sitting at this past Friday at 737 pm. Quote
