Beavers won 5-1. Lots of ejections....late hits.....reffs lost control early. Quote

Goon Posted January 13, 2019 Posted January 13, 2019 Here are a few images from game two. I was able to capture a few of former UND forward Chris Wilkie. Quote

I was wondering the same thing. Kind of sounded like a duo like DJ Khalid or something showing the season highlights at the 8 minute mark for only about a minute before the teams come out for introductions. Probably just a saturday night thing. If anyone knows let us know! Quote

bigmackattack Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 Needed wins by the Sioux. But I hate to be the potential black cloud, in order to get back to NCAA tourney we will either need to 1) win the NCHC tourney; or 2) sweep our remaining 4 games with UNO, sweep CC in CC, and then win 6 of 8 against SCSU, Denver, UMD, and UWM. As Schloss pointed out, the Cansasius losses killed this team. Any wins against UNO and CC will barely move us in the PW (as demonstrated over the weekend). Quote

In other words, this UND needs a finish similar to what strong teams accomplished in 2007, 2009, 2011, 2015, and 2016. While not impossible, certainly highly improbable. 1 Quote

As Schloss pointed out, the Cansasius losses killed this team. Any wins against UNO and CC will barely move us in the PW (as demonstrated over the weekend). That might be slightly overstating it. I plugged in your results into the CHN customization feature for the Pairwise. Because you didn't state which 6 we would win against UMD, SCSU, WMU and DU, I just went with sweeps at home and splits on the road. With the results as you suggested, we'd be sitting at the #3 overall seed heading into the playoffs. It's actually a kind of fun tool to play around with, in your spare time. Of course it assumes certain results elsewhere. I believe it bases those results on KRACH ratings. While they can be wrong, keep in mind they can be wrong in both directions (that is, to UND's benefit or detriment). If you play around with the customization feature, what you'll see is that in the absence of some absurd outcomes elsewhere in college hockey, what UND really needs is to sweep two remaining series and split the rest. If it does that it's most likely spot in the pairwise will be around #10 heading into the playoffs. Only one sweep and the rest of the series split will put us on the bubble, at around #15. 2 Quote

franchise Posted January 14, 2019 Posted January 14, 2019 I don't get all of the doom and gloom. If you head over to CHN and sort by shots, we are currently sitting 12th. Most years that's good enough to get in. 1 Quote

Godsmack Posted January 16, 2019 Posted January 16, 2019 I’m listening to the Mike Haviland Coaches Show with Ken Landau and after listening to this, they oughta rename it, The Mike Haviland Excuses Show. My god, he’s still whining about the no goal on Saturday. Quote

Isn't it tough to argue a call nowadays when the ref actually goes and watches the play multiple times from multiple angles before making the call? 1 Quote

I could still argue the off-sides call against us overturning the goal against Boston in Fargo.... But yeah, those CC no-goals were obvious. 1 Quote
