You just know if there's any way he can get out on the ice he will be there.  Tape that shoulder back in place, I'm good to go Coach!

No doubt. Kid is all frickin' heart. Definition of what we look for in our players.

I don't understand why people think Denver should be in the tournament. Shouldn't you have to win games to make it? Their record is their record. We wouldn't even be having this conversation if not for the waiving of the Wisconsin rule.

Berry fired up in the post-game talk with TH.  Didn't want to talk 2nd period.  

He didn’t looked pleased on the bench after that game winner....

So does that end DUs season or does the committee throw a curveball?

I’m assuming it is down to either DU or UNO for one of the last spots. 

Could see the ncaa putting them in just so they don't have to fly someone to Loveland.

Man Riese Gaber needs a goal

Denver is 4 games below .500 why are they even being considered for the tourney.  Their body of work cannot only consist of their last few games.  If I'm on committee Denver stays home.

UND committed a month worth of turnovers in our own zone.  With clear possession, and sometimes pressure but often not, we sent the puck to a DU player who kept us bottled up or got a scoring chance.   All those turnovers have to stop.  More poise with the puck please.

If I’m on the committee any team below a .600 win percentage is staying home.

I’m so mean.

I miss the pairwise as the bleeding heart has no say.  Just the facts mam.

To be honest, I don't think that UNO, DU, PSU or Notre Dame deserve to be in the tourney.

There's a good chance to get 4 WCHA teams in

Love seeing Thome's reaction.  Skates immediately out to meet Scheel.
Also...you can't see it well, but that puck has some serious velocity out of the net...makes it all the way out to center ice before the players even get across the ice to celebrate.  Wowzers.

[ND_Texan]

Denver missed an open netter by two inches just before we tied it up.

The shot was ripped. Was one of those where live you couldn't follow the puck it was hit so hard, just saw the net move and pandemonium ensued.

Not to be overly dramatic, but losing Senden would be very tough.  No one else on the roster plays like he does.

What did he say? 

Berry talked about having to shuffle lines in the 2nd period after "we lost Senden" or words to that effect. He emphasized that it wasn't just any player. 

Avoided being negative about that period, and thought they had good chances in the 1st. 

Obviously liked the outcome but is expecting a better game tonight.

How good of a teammate is Thome?  I've said it before, but it takes me back to the days of Tobey K, and Blaiser saying that the team would not have won the national championship without Tobey being a positive influence on the group.

You're very much welcome! I will fire up another stream tomorrow.

I have access to all the games but SiouxFanatic, you are the real MVP. Thanks for hooking up all of our fans with a chance to watch the best team in college hockey.

Thome is a fantastic teammate and wonderful person. I am glad he is on our team.

Thoughts:

- Show up like that against anyone again and you'll be scheduling tee times at Ray and King's. 

- Looked like 19 had a shoulder issue. Griffin Ness needs to become an immediate graduate of the Senden School of playing hockey. We'll need that. 

- 4 in the defensive zone needs more work. Give him the puck and one stride of open space he's fine. 

- Radio said Budy was a healthy scratch. I'm thinking they held him out because DU gets in his head because his Miami game was fine. 

- 15 and 26 were on for Hain's winner. That same pair was on against Omaha in OT. Good recovery. 

- Who was on with Hain? 15, 26, 14, and 28. What I see there is the next generation taking ownership and responsibility.

Hope it’s a stinger or bruise and not cartilage. Before Senden I was thinking we can’t afford another 

[ND_Texan]

Lost in all the post game discussion...how good was Weatherby’s feed to Hain from the corner? Right on the tape in stride between two DU defenders. And then the laser.
