Wilbur Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I'm a bit baffled that we have been as poor defensively as we have been. Pretty decent top four that a lot of teams would like to have. Our d zone at times.....ufff. Great time to give the Swede a start in the net. Ja???? Ja??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guessing if the defense was as bad as people have said, they stick with their guy and commit to be better defensively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defense has been the most disappointing thing to me so far this season. Thought that would be a strength and keep us afloat while we figure out forwards and offense. But it’s just been bad. I feel like they’ll get it together eventually but it’s pretty painful right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t imagine he was very happy with that performance. Yah I listened to it. Basically, that QU is a very good team but several of the goals were a result of self-inflicted mistakes. For instance, the goal off the D zone faceoff where we won the puck back to our D and he ringed the puck around the boards and that the forward should know this play but he didn’t get to the rail on time, resulting in the QU player intercepting the puck and setting up a goal. Berry also talked about the penalty trouble we got into and how our PK wasn’t sharp tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if, at times, Sanderson is trying to do too much? Did anyone see the no look backhand pass he tried to make to his D partner at the top of the QU offensive zone? -It led to an odd man rush and scoring opportunity for Quinnipiac.

It kinda seems like he doesn't respect his opponents at this level. Yes, he's figured out the college game and has a step on almost everyone, but they are still elite athletes at the 99th percentile in their trade. They've also got him circled so they can one day say "I burned Jake Sanderson!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought that the first few games…even though his statistics popped out if you watched shift to shift, especially in the ozone, he didn’t really take what the D was giving him. He missed to many passing opportunities. The last theee games, other than the third last night, I haven’t noticed him whatsoever, other than a handful of mistakes. His d partner hasn’t been doing him any favors either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SIOUXELEVENS Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Kleven is a more stay at home D so let’s give it a shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kleven his been playing quite a bit on his off side. I think the problem right now is that we trust Sanderson, Kleven, Frisch, and Jandric. We try and not put 2 of the following 3 on the ice at the same time..Johnson, Moore, and Ferner which unfortunately leads to some miscommunication problems and lack of continuity.

He was our best defenseman in both ends last night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Jandric but its going to be a bit of a curve for him. I think Johnson has Peski written all over him. Struggle, but turn into a really solid guy when things slow down and he figures out you can't just ring the wall in the college game and expect your wing to make the play on the wall. Playing a big, physical, well coached team like the Q will give our guys plenty of film to look at. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Playing a big, physical, well coached team like the Q will give our guys plenty of film to look at. On the post game interview with Hennessy, Berry kinda called out our winger for not getting over to the wall fast enough to get between the puck and the Q defender on that ring around the wall clearing attempt.

scpa0305 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Huge question marks with the Saturday lineup…there’s some guys (who aren’t the most skilled) that have the longest of leashes and others that are so short. Not the most skilled lineup tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bcblues Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Hopefully we got their number last night and can clean up our defense. And hopefully we found some chinks in their defense and can capitalize on them tonight. 3-2 UND?? [big question mark] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like to see the backup goalie play, they aren’t winning either way. Good call 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
