Fought it defensively all night. In the NCAA tournament he wouldn't have played another shift after the first period. The coaches stuck with him as long as they could, but after the 10 minute mark of the third, they just couldn't play him any more and rolled four. If JBD can't go in Fargo they've got some decisions to make. Obviously all the d will dress, but how they use them...... My pairings 3-25 15-26 Then spot Moore and Bast in there where you can. Bast was put with Kiersted a lot when he was fighting it and still couldn't correct himself playing with the best d man on the team. Quote

I will agree that he doesn't have the talent of a JBD or a Sanderson. JBD rightfully the NCHC defensive defenseman of the year, but Kiersted finished second I believe. 1 Quote

Expand ...and as Tim Hennessey says quite often, "the other team is trying too". Sometimes I think our fans are way too simplistic, thinking if a team keeps pressure on us for any extended period of time it's because we weren't trying, or our effort was lacking. If we play well for 2 periods, we only played 40 minutes, not 60. So does that mean the other team only played 20 minutes of hockey? 1 6 Quote

Sweethockey Posted March 17, 2021 Posted March 17, 2021 A couple observations..... When we played Miami, the disparity between the 2 teams skill level was quite large. We rolled Miami because of it. Denver and St. Cloud played their game well and had more skill than Miami. At times we looked like we were stuck in the mud. It had more to do with a more even match up than that we weren't trying to control the game. Thank God #2 is a senior and will not be back next year. I like our team's leadership a lot. They know what to expect out of each other. They are a band of brothers. Quote
