stoneySIOUX Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 Can't believe it's the playoffs. What a ride we've taken this year, eh? Feeling confident we have everyone back next on Friday. Maybe not Sandy, but we could. Gaber and Frisch shouldn't have too much rust, and everything I've heard about Sandy in practice is that he's not missed a beat and actually looks better and more confident than he did before Bejing. Take it in two and see ya at the X. Get it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
siouxfaninseattle Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 I would really like to see this be over in two games but it seems like it goes to three with CC most of the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pandemic won in 19-20. We swept them 15-16, 14-15, won in 3 in 13-14. Went back all the way to 05-06 before I stopped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godsmack Posted March 7, 2022 Share Posted March 7, 2022 We should win this in two when comparing talent and skill on offense, defense, and goaltending. However, in two of the four games played against them this season, CC has really pressed. I thought they really pressured UND in the 3rd period of the Saturday night game at Robson and of course they came back from a 3-0 deficit to make things interesting in the Friday game at the Ralph. Don’t take CC lightly as despite their talent discrepancy, the players have and continue to play hard for their new coach, I saw that this past weekend against DU. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think this ideas is in this current team's DNA. They know they have to win with effort regardless of who they play. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just know that unlike the past few years under Haviland, this year’s CC squad has been putting in maximum effort under coach Mayotte. I don’t think UND will take the foot off the pedal but hopefully they know CC will leave everything out on the ice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But my point was, down 5-0 in the third I witnessed a hustle and compete level I wouldn’t have seen under the previous coaching staff. It was pleasantly surprising really.

They’ve always been a class act, often playing over their heads. I enjoy watching them play. Gonna be a good series. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it could have been drugs and booze and STIGA hockey. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCsiouxfan1733 Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 This weekend has 3 games written all over it sadly. I think it’ll come to Sunday night and Sanderson and Gaber will make their returns then to lead us to St Paul! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t so long ago that UND swept them playing 5 on the blue line the entire weekend. UND will sweep, but very interested on who will return to the lineup this weekend.

brianvf Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 Will it be like last week where Berry will tell us that Gaber and Frisch will for sure play, and then they won’t at all? Also…if Gaber and Frisch would have played last weekend…would UND be sole NCHC champs rather than co-champs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
