I will say I have no idea night to night which team will show up: the one that waxed SCSU or the one that got shuffled in Buffalo. That's on the players. This is where this team is tricky, honestly, I think they bring it every night (Canisius included). The better question is will the puck go in the net. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJS Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 UND has played 33 games this year and has given up more than 3 goals only 5 times (7,6,5,4,4) this year. What could have been if this team had any resemblance of a consistent offense or half way decent special teams (Power Play - 50th / Penalty Kill - 37th). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of offense and bad PP are really not separate problems. They are both driven by lack of talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yzerman19 Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 6 losses or ties giving up 2 or less 11 giving up 3 or less. should win at least 4 of the first 6, and half of the incremental 5. an average offense and pp and we have 6/7 more wins and are sitting pretty. Reality sinks in...you are what your record says you are, and we have zero offense 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it is entirely lack of talent. The last 2 years our best hope of scoring has been either Wolanin or this year one of our other defensemen. Since Boeser left none of our forwards have been able to be a consistent threat. Some of it has to be scheme. NHL scouts didn’t pick Mismash as high as they did because they thought he had no talent. None of the other draft picks on the team can score on a consistent basis either. Last year I expected more scoring out of Gersich. To have as pathetic of power play that we have had the last 2 years ,I refuse to believe we are in the bottom 10% in talent. Have to look at scheme and what they are doing is not working. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJS Posted March 3, 2019 Share Posted March 3, 2019 There's two guaranteed weekend left in the year, for someone who not only enjoys watching the games, but also likes looking ahead, there's still a lot to dissect coming up. Each weekend is important to me as there are things we can carry into the off season speculation. Although it potentially (most likely) won't matter once selection Sunday comes, where they finish in the standings / pairwise, how they end all can lead to conversation going into next year. Looking at Omaha I'm most interested in two things (1) Thome's play - I thought last weekend might have been his best overall weekend at UND. He's had great performances in the past, but for the first time I thought he truly looked in control. It just might be his style (?), but even looking back to the Duluth Friday night game where he made the saves, there are so many times he looks out of position. Not last weekend. Looking forward to next year, these next two weekends can help him continue to build and gain confidence, putting UND in great position with the Scheel / Thome goalie combo. (2) JBD - I still don't know what to make of the healthy scratch yesterday. I know I initially overreacted, I hope, but am anxious to get the next weekend going.

Didn't we used to be a team that could sweep SOMEONE? I mean, we used to be good. Yes, we have beat some dam good teams this season, but we can't sweep anybody. This team has some good players but is no where close to a good team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duluth is out of the picture for a first round matchup anyway. Not sure if it is still possible to get in by winning that first round against a high pairwise team then win one at the Frozen faceoff against another team high in the pairwise.

Western struggling mightily at the moment.....could even catch a huge break and play them at the Ralph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The worse part is we either want Western to get swept by Miami, or sweep Miami, there isn’t any in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
