Way way way too many indirect passes on the PP once they have gained the zone (if that even successfully happens...). Once they gain the zone they almost always ring it behind the net, other team attacks because it's a great time to take a risk on a PK, and boom we get to do our crappy zone entry again! We do a great job of letting the opposing goalie see the puck too. Where is Brad Malone when you need him? Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 On a positive note I did like the play from 10, 14 and 24. Quote

The success rate chipping it in was ZERO! 1 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 I feel I need to dye my hair pink and purple after being at both FB and hockey today. Quote

Irish Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Turns out that you can talk team unity in the off season, send out letters about how each game and each period starts at zero, have a coach say your defense is the best he's ever seen, and if you don't have enough talent to gain the offensive zone or even get a decent shot off during a power play you will play unwatchable games and have Bemidji State kick your a**. Come on Bubba - at least watch PP film and do anything but what we are doing. Quote

Think the whole team can play a lot better if they play with some passion and urgency. My biggest concern is that after all the talk about getting back to the NCAA tournament, they played with neither this weekend. If every game counts, they sure don't seem to understand it. Quote

Come on Bubba - at least watch PP film and do anything but what we are doing. If Shaw was serious about his comments about the defense and such, his inability to utilize their talents on the power play looks even worse. Finishing with 19 percent with the likes of Schmaltz, Boeser, Caggiula, Stecher, Poolman and LaDue doesn't inspire my confidence in the scheme. 1 Quote

DrunkHockeyGuy Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 This jerseys though! They need to get rid of them. Players can’t handle being Hawks. 1 1 Quote
SIOUX92 Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Honestly, this weekends performance is embarrassing.this team clearly wants to take low percentage shots for rebound opportunities. However, you will not get rebound opportunities unless you adequately screen the goalie. This did not happen this weekend. Furthermore, if your seeking rebound opportunities you have to crash the net. Unfortunately, we did not crash the net in a compretive format compared to the opponent. Quote
darell1976 Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 This team needs to get some high scoring games. They can’t play 1 or 2 goals and expect a win all the time. It’s like having a good pitcher but no offense. When was the last time a UND team scored only 2 goals on BSU for an entire weekend? Where’s the 5 or 6 goal games we used to see on a regular basis, just no fire power out there. People already calling for Berry’s head, something may be looked at if UND misses the playoffs for a second straight year. Quote
John W. Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Some of you are correct.....the reason for this team's faults is a nickname!!!!...the ice hockey 'culture ' at UND is the only sport that hasn't embraced the new name/logo fully....stop referring to them as 'Siou-sies'....and good karma will follow.....I know it's hard for some to join the 21st Century...(and you're still hoping for a return of women's hockey.....poor babies) 4 Quote
George M. Bluth Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Alex did say during the game that Berry liked his team and that they worked very hard this off-season. But worked hard on what???? Judging by this weekend, he must have meant their school work, because it couldn't have been hockey related. Quote

UND won 2 national titles when the Blackhawk logo was dropped, they won one national title after the Sioux name was dropped. So if the team wins it’s because of the Sioux name but if they lose it’s because of the Hawks name/logo. Too much Tide Pod eating going on. 1 1 Quote

Woof!! Just brutal. Nothing in 2 games gave a glimpse hope offensively from them....minus Jones. Gooch Adams and Mismash will need to be 3 of the top 5 forward point scorers from here on out for this team to be relevant in the conference and Pairwise. Quote

Haven't totally lost hope for the year but football and basketball will have to fill the void if something doesn't change. Quote
SIOUXELEVENS Posted October 14, 2018 Posted October 14, 2018 Only way berry loses his job is last place league finish, doable, no home ice for playoffs and no ncaa’s , which will be in Fargo. If we go two in a row out of the ncaa’s they will not be bidding on regionals just to lose money. Quote
