NORTH DAKOTA VS miami GAMEDAY THREAD ( SATURDAY)

[06 Sioux]

Hold on to your butts.  We got a hockey game here.

[TrueSioux2000]

Well that was a joke

[SiouxFanatic]

Miami scores 3-1. That probably does it.

How unlucky is that, win a draw so clean that they get a break from it.  Boys need to start burying, this is a game they should have won.

I didn’t like how they lined up for it.

Not going to win when you got players who can not put the puck on the net.

[SiouxFanatic]

Disappointing result. Lack of finishing hurts them tonight. Crappy.  

Gotta learn from it and move on though. 

[cberkas]

Put a right handed player on the left side

[bcblues]

Simply outskated.

[SiouxFanatic]

UND gets one back, Kawaguchi gets his second goal of the night. 3-2 Miami. 22 secs left.

[AJS]

Awful split, can't drop games to teams like Miami. 

[FGHTNSX Hawkey14]

Guch with his 2nd goal in the the night

[SiouxFanatic]

Game over. Miami wins 3-2. 

[cberkas]

The better team didn’t win, need to work on the little things. 

Miami isn’t a good team.

Need to spend the week working on board battles, puck support, and the dumpster fire that is the power play. 

 

[06 Sioux]

Great chance in the final 24 seconds

[runaroundsioux]

We missed Jones.

[Oxbow6]

Next 4 games at home are big for this team.

[SiouxScore]

Didn't get to watch either one this weekend but from following online it seemed like the guys played pretty well but the couldn't convert on opportunities again. That has to get better or no matter how well the guys play there will continue to be games like tonight where you drop one you shouldn't here and there.

They need to figure out a better way to compensate for his loss because it does not sound like he’ll be back next week. 

[bcblues]

A valiant, but losing effort against a team we should have swept.

[06 Sioux]

Can't say I am going to miss Joe "Hold your butts" Gehringer.

[Frozen4sioux]

That wasnt good. The choices made in the offensive zone were poor. Way to many low angle long shots, breakout shots.

when was the last time someone drove hard to the net....... they allowed themselves to be pushed wide when speed could have beaten the d, same with the trap. 

Yet again with a "gotta play 60 min" lesson game.

Game wasn’t pretty, boys looked a lot better in the 3rd.  The last two periods yesterday into the 1-2 periods today was pretty boring hockey.  Very bland.  But the fact jones, Hoff and a guy like Hain was out of the lineup....whatever I guess.  Should have won though.

Only time the PP gets a decent chance is when they have it down low and the dman creeps down and tries to set up back door. It's like a 2 min game of keep away.

It's like the guy with the puck is waiting for someone else to do something. Very easy to defend that on the power play.
