NORTH DAKOTA VS purple cows GAMEDAY THREAD (FRIDAY)

[UNDMOORHEAD]

Hopefully they can figure out how to turn it around. It's only three games, but it might be a long year.

You lose when you don’t play a full 60. 

[George M. Bluth]

Liked the effort overall tonight.  Would love to see Hain back in the lineup.  Good possession time, just need to make some saves.  I am more positive after a 3 goal loss than I would have expected.  Hopefully Rhett can sit out the rest of the games.  I am happy Simo & Olson are gone, but Rhett just won't learn and his stupid penalties are getting ridiculous.

Berry post game show:

-Effort was there.

-Finally found some offense.

-Gotta clean things up defensively.

-We will get back to work tomorrow

Let's see how close I am....

My percentage was better than our save percentage tonight.  Not bad! 

[Siouxpoib]

This doesn't look ljme the North Dakota hockey team I'm used to seeing.  A few yaers ago this would have been unacceptable, but now people on the board are celebrating moral victories.  0-2-1 against Bemidji and Mankato.  When do we get our first win? Canisius?

[SiouxVolley]

The team just likes March NCAA playoff drama.  I.e Fans sweating whether they get in.

I completely agree with this, but I’d add Smith in on it too.

Was surprised Hain was out of the lineup but after watching the Berry mic'd up thing during intermission I'm thinking he might be hurt. He was in a white jersey while everyone else was green or black.
Mankato has good speed and skill throughout and is very opportunistic. Good offensive team but can be taken advantage of in the D Zone at times.
Too many defensive miscues from UND tonight.
Thome struggled. Scheel came up with some big saves should be in net tomorrow.
Better offensively tonight but should've finished with at least a couple more goals with the chances that were there.
Powerplay looked alright at times. Much better movement than last weekend.
Can't have that play from Gardner. Misses majority of game and hard to replace him.
I knew Mankato would be a very solid team and that is one of the biggest reasons I was so disappointed with the way we started the season against Bemidji. It isn't that we can't beat Mankato or Minnesota but those were games I expected to be pretty tough and could be losses. The BSU games were 2 I thought had to be wins and we didn't even get a win out of the series.

UND hasn’t been winless through 4 games since 1994, that’s what’s on the line tomorrow. Berry is really doubling down after missing the tournament last year.

I've wanted to like him for hustle and grit, but you're totally right.  I did forget to include him.

[Rebel_Sioux]

The offense was there. Poor defense and goaltending though. 

[Wilbur]

How many stupid things have we seen 22 do over the years and how many times has he gotten a suit the next game for his actions?

So why are we surprised it still happens?

[SiouxFan100]

So would you trade mankato’s players for ours?

Would you trade Mankato’s coaches for ours?

Hastings is really good. Shaw blows. Berry is still on a championship hangover.

I'd trade some of Mankato's players for ours. Not the entire rosters.

I'd trade at least one of our coaches to get one of Mankato's.

I said this after both BSU games. I say it again tonight.  YUCK.

Kato is very solid.  Great coaching, great team vibe.  UND is lost.

[Boogieman]

3 and 7 were good.  Best I've seen Yon so far.  But I have absolutely no idea how Kawaguchi wasn't in the player of the game conversation.  Complete beast mode making things happen in all three zones in all three periods.  Time for Berry to take the A off of Gardner's sweater.

Until the University and REA step up and show they want to back this program the way it should be, this is the best we can expect.

MSUM has 6 goals on 14 shots?  C'mon.  This game is on the goalies.

Thank you, was wondering what game some were watching.

[siouxfaninseattle]

So a few years ago our top line was CBS, now it's..........? BIG drop off in talent.

[MafiaMan]

It's only 3 games into the season...

Remain calm and please disperse...
