The Sicatoka Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 Takeaway from this: Don't believe the goalie when you ask them "are you good" for the Nth overtime; instead, have a quick arbitrary check on them before they go out. Make them "tennis ball" the wall or some other response quickness test. The cramping and subsequent pull of the UMD goalie should've been a bigger red flag.

nd jg Posted March 30, 2021 Share Posted March 30, 2021 1 hour ago, siouxkid12 said: let me ask this question. Peter Thome is avery capable goalie, should we have done the same? I know Scheel has been good and Thome was cold but like you said, fatigue is/was setting in and 9/10 Scheel stops that shot. Had the same conversation, you could see that at the end of the 3rd OT that the Duluth goalie was already struggling to stand up. At the beginning of the 4th OT, it was apparent the first time he went down that he could not go on so they replaced the goalie. Fanti made saves that Stejskal would not have because he was fresh. I am certain UND would have won in the 4th OT if the goalie was not replaced. Looking at the UND situation, Scheel showed now signs of slowing down even in the 4th OT, He was getting up and down on the ice as normal. You cant fault them for keeping him in. My only thought is Fresh goalie of the bench would have faster reflexes against players that were dog tired and moving slower than normal, Advantage Goalie.

If they three-peat next week, it becomes a pattern. One that makes us look stuck in the mud by comparison. People can talk all they want about "puck luck" and "parity", but one team three-peating disproves both of those ideas. Nobody wins three straight titles by being lucky. And nobody wins three straight titles if there is true parity. Those words are what people tell themselves to make failure more palatable. I would rather face the truth: We are playing second banana to someone else.....again. It was Boston College (and I am so glad they got knocked off last week), now it is Duluth (Go UMass). Sooner or later, we will start losing recruiting battles over it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UMD got lucky when they played us in the 5 OT game. Heck if we would've won it, we would've got lucky. OT 1 and 2 you still have skill going but I believe once you get deeper it takes luck to win the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't matter how it happens; in the end, we come off looking like a program that underachieves when the chips are down. And that is what people remember.

You'll never convince me 2011 wasn't. UND was 2-1 against Duluth that year, outscoring them 11-5. Shawn Hunwick played the game of his life to keep Duluth from having to face UND again.

And that is what people remember. And that is not good. An under-achieving 8-time national title hockey program? Think of our run from 1980-1987...three titles in those years, similar to the run that Duluth is on right now. Every high end program goes through those ebbs and flows, and yes...it takes a bit of puck luck to end the season with a title banner. UMD got lucky this year having a first round bye as a lower seed a day after UND played the late game. And they got lucky that any one of the several OT post shots by UND didn't go in. But that's hockey. I certainly don't view our program as "underachieving". That's not what I remember. But, hey, to each their own. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Duluth has done what they needed to do to win, which is all they can do, but making the tournament by some miniscule decimal point the first year, having to play Air Force rather than St. Cloud, and then having that same St. Cloud team blow a tire against AIC, not to mention getting a bye then playing a 5 overtime game against a team that played the late game the night before sure helped in those runs. We have seen teams that repeat in the past go on long droughts because it is hard to do, but then you will just move on to the next team that is doing well, and ask why can't UND be more like them. Our titles will come, but I sure don't mind winning league championships in the meantime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Duluth also was moments away from first round elimination when Bowling Green had an own goal to tie it up late in the 3rd in 2018. Sandelin coaching had nothing to do with that. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All in all, I would say that Berry had the far superior year with two trophies compared to Sandelin's zero. He just got out-coached tonight...UMass coach had his players let UMD control play so that they could crush their souls in OT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Berry easily had the better season. No one will remember in a couple years who finished 3rd/4th in the 2021 F4. UMD wasn't a fluke F4 team, but UND certainly was the better team throughout the entire season and earned two trophies because of it. Don't get me wrong, I'd gladly trade both those trophies for another national title, but it just wasn't to be this year. Maybe next year... 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think UMD hangs participation banners. Better season? They won nothing. Overall, UND had the much better season. That isn’t even a debate. Winning the regular season, conference tournament, or national championship isn’t easy. UND won 2 out of 3 and while I certainly wish a national title was part of that number instead of either the penrose or conference championship, it was still a better season than UMD. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
