We can only hope that once he get's going, he doesn't disappear when we need him.  They need to figure out how to press his buttons so we can get him to be more consistent, something you shouldn't have to say about a Senior.  Hope he figures out that besides playing for his hometown team, he is playing for a future contract. 

Kid has every bit of skill, power, speed, effort .... just hasn't put it all together consistently. Not sure if he ever will. We've all seen how dominant he can be in flashes. Doesn't feel like it's lack of effort. Not sure what it is.

At this point in his college career he is what he is. He’ll probably end the season with 7-10 goals and 7-10 assists. Anyone expecting more will likely be disappointed.  He’ll show flashes from time to time that give you hope, then disappear for long stretches. No reason to expect anything more based on his first three plus seasons.

Frankly, six games into the season, I would be more than o.k. with those numbers from here on out.

I’ve looked on their games and noticed Cole Spicer hasn’t been on the score sheet. 

No one has been on the score sheet. Isaac Howard is a first rounder who has one more point and is dash 100

For all of you obsessed about Spicer and his lack of productivity how about looking at Judd. Zero points so far and a minus 2.

Can’t figure it out. Most folks just don’t understand.

I'm fine with Judd in the lineup. But he should be a 4th liner/bottom 6 every night. No more trying to force him into a top 6 role, he just isn't meant for that type of offensive role.

I always found Judd to be the guy we had play top 6 because there weren’t other good options. Serviceable but not consistent enough to be there if there are better options. I know he pretty much starts every season rather slow so I’m almost expecting some big games from him in November/December. But so far this season I’m just not sure where to put him.

Haven't kept up with much news lately.  I'm gathering that Spicer wanted to come this yr, was told no and then bailed to UMD?

Correct. UND wanted him to come next year.

Start at the 1 hour mark of the Has-Beens podcast to hear what current & former players think of this site, it's pretty damn funny and spot on

Includes Keaton Thompson throwing his phone across the room in the 2013-14 season

Thompson? He was a hack that should've never seen the ice again after that!

That Gaber episode was a good listen

Ha nice, I can only imagine. 
I've never listed to a podcast before (how old am I?)...what was the gist?

[AlphaMikeFoxtrot]

Was it Gersich who called out a specific poster on here?

Sounds like the 13-14 team got a little deep into SS.com(probably too deep), reading comments and stuff after games of players getting ripped.  Just commenting on all the hot takes about guys on here watching from the stands saying this player should have done this or that & they have no idea what it's like on the ice at the speed the game moves.  Gage also commented how much pressure players at UND face because of how passionate our fanbase is.

"For Da Oxbow" was the chant, I believe.

Ha, got it, thanks for the rundown.  Yeah, I can only imagine how much pressure these kids are under to perform well.  Just from themselves, coaching staff, etc...let alone us idiots on the keyboards.   

I had a computer class with Matt Jones when I was at UND...was probably 2003 (?) or so right after I had joined ss.com, and I sat directly behind him.
He was on siouxsports literally every day looking on the forum.

Grand forks may not have a media like big cities but SS takes care of that

I guess that shouldn't surprise from a guy who hustled into every corner.

Jandric becomes first Dman in UND history to get 10 or more points in the month of October. Good stuff.
