Lose and we still live for another day. lose a game in the NCAA you are done - that I stress over more Expand Not only that. Losing a game at this point can be a lesson and a motivator. As long as it's not a goalie confidence thing. For instance, you beat the other guy to the puck not only are you likely to gain possession, you're probably not going to commit a penalty. I like the way these boys are coached, but they were getting beat to pucks in the third, whether they were playing conservative hockey or they just didn't have the urgency Omaha did. 1 Quote

Expand I think when they got into some penalty trouble, that by itself resulted in a shortened bench and therefore the penalty killers probably didn’t have a whole lot in the tank. At least this is my impression from Coach Berry’s post game comments with Hennessy. Quote

Anyone have any thoughts on anything UND can shore up for tonight’s game? Did UND play pretty well over all last night? Anything that they could change up? Just curious to get everyone’s thoughts on how the team performed. Thanks. Expand The NCHC officials. The call on Jackson Kunz was horrendous and led to UND giving up a two-goal lead. They ran out of gas. 1 Quote

Expand I think Miami has better goaltending despite thinking Basse is a more than capable goaltender. CC’s play in the defensive zone is not good. CC is a small team and they don’t do well with regards to board work, which is one of UND’s specialties. Quote
SiouxFan100 Posted March 5, 2022 Posted March 5, 2022 Either way we will get a hot goalie- always do Quote

NCAA circle jerk imo Expand Go back, way back in time, to the NHL in the 60’s. 2 for a win, 1 for a tie. Overtime only in playoffs. 20 minute, 5x5, sudden death. NCAA wide. Back to you… Quote
Wilbur Posted March 5, 2022 Posted March 5, 2022 Absolutely zero gas at the end for our guys. Lucky to not have lost it in regulation with the way Omaha was rolling. Our gap play at the end was the worst its been all season long. Yet you were having to play certain guys heavy minutes and poor gaps is a direct result of tired guys. As a whole I didn't think our d zone was that great last night. Maybe that's a credit to the Mavs buzzing around too. Quote
siouxfaninseattle Posted March 5, 2022 Posted March 5, 2022 I think more a case of having to kill penalties. Defense needs to tighten up. Forwards need to help out more in the D zone. Quote

NCHC gotta be different and have 3 points so they can go to this lame overtime system where both teams get participation points for a tie. Quote

For reference that 1997 WCHA regular season banner in REA was shared. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted March 6, 2022 Posted March 6, 2022 Strategically, things played out well: Won the league regular season title (x3) Driscoll didn't get run twice on the weekend (just once, ) Gaber and Frisch got a full rest weekend 1 Quote
