ajries18 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 I'm all for trying new line combinations, but at what point will the guys be allowed to develop some chemistry? Injuries aside, our lineup should be set by the last three weeks of the season. Hoping for some consistency this weekend. Quote

It would be easier to keep the same lines if they, ya know... showed any sign of chemistry. I'd expect to see similar lines to Saturday. Helps when your forwards actually put the puck in the net.

Because that’s pretty much what had been happening... 2 Quote

GoalieMask Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Brad and Dane need to invite Blaiser over for some late night film sessions breaking down ways to exploit some of these guys. UND’s top lines had a field day in the 7-0 win at home in January vs. the Red Cows. It was pretty similar to what we saw in the final period last Saturday, in fact. Realistically, it’s hard not to call a split. If this team truly is a NCAA Tournament contender, I think the sweep could (should) could come the following weekend in Miami. 2 Quote
rhenry8439 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Every guy needs to wear bubble wrap in practice so that we get no more injuries. how do we get more injuries in practice than we do in games??? 1 Quote
AJS Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 After seeing every NCHC team play UND, I thought Omaha was the least impressive. That being said, Omaha is a much better home team than road. Still think UND is the better team. Friday night, on CBS Sports Network, I can't picture UND winning. With that in mind, I'd go with a split (the usual, Lose on Friday, Win Saturday). If any team sweeps I'd predict it to be Omaha. I really, really want this team to prove me wrong and actually win a game on Friday. 1 Quote
siouxforce19 Posted February 13, 2018 Posted February 13, 2018 Since Baxter Arena has been our 2nd home since it opened, I predict more good results. Quote

Remember when we were the king of Prime Time? Quote

Cratter Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 UND 13th in the Pairwise. Games a cointoss. Should be entertaining. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 Schloss calling for a split...no shock there...with a loss tonight. I agree a split is the most likely outcome this series but if Thome starts and loses tonight this goalie situation is just a complete mess heading down the stretch. Quote

If this later part happens, we'll be in a real struggle to get home playoffs. Quote

You hate putting so much on the goalies, but UND needs a series where either Thome / Johnson actually outplay the Omaha goalie, both nights. Quote
UNDColorado Posted February 16, 2018 Posted February 16, 2018 I didn't watch last Saturday and we won so today I'm going to listen on the radio on my drive out west after work. #whateverittakes Quote

Hate to say it, but if UND doesn't win tonight, I don't think they win on Saturday either, as you can only go to the well so many times. They can use the character phrase all they want about rebounding, but at some point that character has to be there on the Friday game so they don't put themselves in that position all the time. Hope that tonight is the night they do that. Quote
