It's honestly hard to expect more from this team though.
At this point in the season, they are who they are.

If you had one guarantee of the year, it was Duluth tonight. Next two weekends don’t matter, its win the NCHC tourney or Berry misses two in a row.

Wasn't a death blow. Held UMD to 3 total goals for the game, but unfortunately UND had 3 SOG for the first half the game.

You're right that they didn't generate offense the first half, but those two goals did make the difference.   And their captain put them in that position both times.  

[Sioux1988]

Well it's 1-1 in Denver let's hope Miami can pull this one off and CC can win on Tuesday. Pretty sure we're going to Denver for the 3 game playoff though. If that's the case does anyone know if a TV affiliate will pick it up or is it nchc.tv or radio

You're right.  They played a superior team very well this weekend.

In a 3-2 game, two 5x3 PPG's weren't the death blow?

You can say one of them was the game winner.

Duluth didn't build any momentum off of them.

I agree two stupid penalties that create 5x3s shows lack of discipline and leadership. This should not happen. Some people need to sit but at this point what is it going to do. 

[George M. Bluth]

Overall  a pretty decent weekend. Too many penalties to start this one, but good late 2nd and 3rd. They can hang with anyone and the effort was obvious all weekend (a rarity this year).  If they can somehow, someway make the tourney, they could be dangerous.

Nick Wolff is a piece of sh*t.

dahlooth always seems to culture up a tremendous piece of !@#$ 

[AJS]

I just don’t understand how a Senior captain plays like he did tonight. This team would be better off if 22 signed last year. Kudos though to 28 for not only look like you care, but not hand the game to Duluth like your roommate.

Agree on Wolff, hope him nothing but the worst

I have no doubt Gardner is a hard worker and a good teammate, but I'd wager he's just not real smart.

People have called Gardner the captain so much, I some times forget Poolman is the Captain. 

[cberkas]

Could have won the game but a senior captain had to take two dumb penalties.

Is there anyone at the Ralph ... its so quiet.

The Ralph crowd is never that loud the last few years.

Yes.  Totally.  Just wanted it on the record.

[burd]

If this were golf, our guys would be good off the tee and decent with the long to mid range irons but terrible in the short game, where it counts. 

Where you put the goalie in that lame analogy, I don't know.

[AJS]

Giving this team credit, they find unique ways to lose, you don’t often see a team take two 5 on 3s! Thanks Rhett!

Are these games even that important?  I mean we get the autobid to Fargo right?

Perhaps mediocre product. Just a guess.

Plus you are waived in for 5 years after winning a natty.   Easy peasy.
