Frozen4sioux Posted September 19, 2019 Author Share Posted September 19, 2019 It is quite possible Jdubs is in fact GFhockey's grandfather. His much much more senile grandfather. or another parody handle from the same dude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UND moving hockey practices to mornings this season https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/hockey/4666229-UND-moving-hockey-practices-to-mornings-this-season SCSU for the past several years has been practicing the morning too. Worked well for them as one player told me, "kind of forces you to get to bed at a good time." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cratter Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 For comparisons sake, last year UND was picked to finish 3rd in the NCHC. They finished 5th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 What's funny is he usually starts with an objective observation, and then his train of thought derails once his hatred of Sioux hockey takes over. Meth....not even once. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Irish Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 According to the Heraldo, Karl will have responsibility for the power play. That can only be a good thing. A frustrating year last year, but it looks like Berry is making some changes that should show positive results. If our returning forwards can take a positive step in development we should be back in the thick of things. Can't wait until the season starts.

Godsmack Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 Anyone know where I can find a recording of the rink live NCHC staff reporters from the other day? There’s a link in the Herald but when you click on it, it says it’s offline. I’d love to hear the discussion among Schlossman and the other beat writers.

It’s available on the bulldog insider podcast feed also if that works better. I listen to podcasts on Apple podcasts and I found it there. Warning: shades of arrogance can be found while listening.

Thanks for the suggestion! I found it and just listened to it. I got some nuggets of information but any talk about Duluth kinda bored me; maybe out of petty jealousy, maybe just tired of Duluth winning. I wish we could’ve gotten a broader conversation about all 8 members. Not once did I even hear Omaha or Miami mentioned in the pod cast. Was hoping to hear some pros and cons for each of the 8 member programs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the exact same thing. Hopefully the tide turns in the one goal games, which is what Duluth has been exceptional at. They are hardly the dominant team that you think are unbeatable, but you can’t beat yourself like we did with a chance to sweep them with Gardner giving them a 5 on 3 power play. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know off hand where UND ranked in the conference in penalties? Just my off the cuff impression was that we had to have been among the leaders in PIMS.

Schlossman’s comment about UMD’s lack of offense wasn’t well received by the UMD beat writer. (I saw the video version so I saw his facial expression). I think that while they’ve been able to win those low scoring games the last couple years, I feel like lack of offense could come back to bite them unless they start scoring more. Which is valid. 2014-15 UND team was masterful at winning those close games, didn’t always score a lot, came back to bite them in the Frozen Four when Zane has a bad game and we couldn’t score enough to come back. (Just as an example) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there might also be a little old school hockey culture at UND that doesn't fit so well with modern rules enforcement. That may well be BS. I'm sure I'll hear about it.
