Purely conjecture.....but we will see about his recruiting skills next year. Good teams reload...and reload which we had done in a 10 year span despite early departure to the pros.  Hopefully we'll see a much-improved product next year

I have a hard time believing that next year could be worse than this one.

Is there a Juco in the hockey world, like football?  Get a older player who is ready?

Yeah, it’s called the USHL, AJHL, BCHL and they have already got a few overages coming in.

I run a better power play with my peewee team. Pathetic. Feel bad for Rieger. Happened right in front of us. I’m yelling ring the boards as I saw the SCSU player coming down on him. Lot of blame to go around besides him. 

Your fault. Distracted him!

[SIOUXELEVENS]

This year was bad, depending on who we lose next year could very very bad.

[siouxfan512]

Anyone remember SCSU last year? Losing record and didn’t make the frozen Faceoff. Things can change quick.

I didn’t realize this year was over.

If I'm Pogo I'm truly embarrassed. 

[SIOUXELEVENS]

Coaches responsibility if a player is coasting and not giving it all such as #16 he should ride the pine until he skates like he cares.

It’s not over just on life support.

[Walsh Hall]

Rieger caught an edge and panicked.

With a hand on the plug ready to yank it out.

He panics a lot. Shouldn't be on the ice especially in an OT game that you need to win if he can't be more composed than that.

[Oxbow6]

If Berry is shortening the forward lines why not stick Casey back there if you're going to go with 6 D-man

Because you got worse at hockey since your soph season?

Exactly

I don’t know how you can’t question Berry’s line up decision making. This loss is on him. No way they are a better team w/ Johnson at Forward, Rieger on D and Adams / Hoff in the stands. 

[UND1983]

Cant fault the effort.  Energy was there and Cam was great but a couple mistakes and a couple missed breakaways were the difference.

If Peski couldn’t go, they should’ve just put Casey back on D and inserted Hoff or Adams or even Yon.

[Frozen4sioux]

Im not goingg to rag bad on reiger... it was a stupid mistake but.... 

I just think the overall effort and giveashit factor this year left a situation that one mistake could kill em

Thats on leadership.

 

[Wilbur]

Goals two and three are guys attempting blind backhand plays out of the zone.

I'm about done with sports - Any & mostly all teams I want to win usually end up losing & I care too much & my happiness is terribly affected  - I need to find pleasure in finding teams I can make lose - So I'm going to become a NDSU Fan & a Goofer Fan

[fsioux]

I don't think it was lack of effort.  This team just does not have enough finishers.  Team skated with SCSU but passing was erratic and players were never seldom in position to get off a decent shot when pass was either behind them or they had to stretch to bring it in.

Berry is a good coach and he shouldn’t go anywhere.  Shaw on the other hand has been shown to be a liability and should be shown the door.  It’s a shame that UND could have had a very good chance at beating a more skilled clown team but one brain fart (putting it lightly) by Reiger sank the ship.  I still am in awe why he would make such a stupid no look pass in that situation. 

More then one brain fart sank the ship. And if you look at the season as a whole we left a lot on the table. This team didn't seem to get better as the season went along and to still be making rookie mistakes at this point of the season is unacceptable. I feel bad for Cam he did everything he could to steal a game and we couldn't get out of our own way.

[siouxweet]

If I am Notre Dame, OSU or Cornell I hope UND does make it as they will be an easier out than some other that earned their way in.

There was a clear lack of effort and desire from a few players. Others lacked skill. Overall they lacked chemistry.... all year. It’s not a recipe for success.
