Quote College hockey statistics have been compiled and maintained online for the last two decades by collegehockeystats.net. The best power play on record is the 2015-16 Michigan team. That top power-play unit featured Kyle Connor and Zach Werenski, who will both play in the NHL All-Star Game next week, as well as Hobey Baker finalists Tyler Motte and J.T. Compher, and forward Alex Kile. The Wolverines converted at 32.0 percent that season. This year's St. Cloud State team is currently converting at 38.1 percent. Yes, the Huskies are on pace to obliterate the best power play mark on record in college hockey as they head to Grand Forks for a two-game series against UND at 7:07 p.m. Friday and 6:07 p.m. Saturday. They're almost a full 10 percent ahead of the next closest team in the country. The nation's second best power play, Providence, is at 28.3 percent. Third-place Michigan Tech is at 27 percent. This is interesting: Quote NCAA men's top power plays of last 20 years 38.1 percent — St. Cloud State 2021-22** (Zach Okabe, Kevin Fitzgerald, Easton Brodzinski) 32.0 percent — Michigan 2015-16 (Kyle Connor, Zach Werenski, Tyler Motte) 31.6 percent — Wisconsin 2020-21 (Cole Caufield, Dylan Holloway, Ty Pelton-Byce) 31.6 percent — Ohio State 2016-17 (Nick Schilkey, David Gust, Mason Jobst) 31.1. percent — St. Cloud State 2001-02 (Ryan Malone, Mark Hartigan, Mike Doyle) 30.8 percent — Colorado College 2002-03 (Tom Preissing, Peter Sejna, Brett Sterling) Quote

This is interesting: A friend who went to St Cloud said Doyle had a huge year as a freshman and got consistently worse every year. Quote
GoalieMask Posted January 28, 2022 Author Posted January 28, 2022 Friday: 2-2 tie, Clown gets the extra pt Saturday: 3-2 UND let’s score some goals! Quote
UND WFO78 Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 Important weekend! Maybe we start becoming a more cohesive unit and "putting it all together"? I am going to say this is a turning point for our squad - In the correct direction. Go Sioux! Friday - SCSU 2 UND 6 Saturday - SCSU 3 UND 4 OT 1 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 UND will get punched in the face tonight. I except it to be ugly. Saturday will be different. Quote
AJS Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 Excited for this series. I'm putting a lot of stock in tonight's game. This team is wounded, no doubt, but ultimately, all it takes is potentially one game to stop the bleeding. Win tonight. Offensively, they'll come around eventually. I'm not saying this is some high powered offensive team, but they aren't as bad as they've shown over the last two weekends either. Really concentrating and hoping for (1) Good performance from Hellsten (2) Defensively be solid. Do those two things and win a close one type of game (3-2) tonight. Quote
AJS Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 % chance that Hellsten starts tonight? There's no way that he goes back to Driscoll is there? Quote

I think that Driscoll played well enough on Friday of last week to get a start, but I think they go Hellsten tonight. If we win, he starts both. 1 Quote
SuhakiYeahYeah Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 Whats the phrase? "An animal is most dangerous when wounded"? Friday: 2-1 UND Saturday: 3-0 UND Hellsten gets the nod and solidifies himself as the starter. Call me foolishly optimistic, but this team is so Jekyll and Hyde that you don't know what you'll get. 1 Quote
gfhockey Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 I’m a realist split we get shiwsckked tonight and win tomorrow Quote
Blackheart Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 Sioux are going to need to score more than 1 goal to get a win this weekend. 1 Quote

AJS Posted January 28, 2022 Posted January 28, 2022 My school of thought is, a team can't lose (virtually) every single Friday, right? Eventually, they'll get one. Seems like the moment most (me included) really start to get frustrated, that's when they'll do a 180. Note: Or this could be 2017 (or 2018?) all over again. Where you wait and wait and next thing season is over getting swept on the road. Quote

Also... Quote Losing streaks haven't been common at UND. The Fighting Hawks haven't lost five in a row since January/February 1995. They haven't lost six in a row since January 1994. There have been longer winless streaks, but ties were mixed in. Quote
