No. Two different games, on different ice. Bad defense and no sustained forecheck. 

My bad. I thought it was a weird continuation game. Against a different opponent. At a different location.

Brutal brutal loss…that was the game. Tomorrow will be tough. Mn way more skilled 

Yah, it felt like we were hanging on for dear life through much of the second half of the game. Didn’t seem like we generated any sustain O zone pressure. Minnesota have better skaters?

We are getting out recruited by a lot of teams.  Starting to show. Got outplayed badly by a much younger team tonight. Our puck control and breakout is gawdawful. Because we couldn’t skate or compete for the puck with Minn.

Thought we were gonna hang on and steal a W

DeRidder was really solid but I think he'd want that tying goal back

Took advantage of opportunities but have to generate more, at times it felt like we'd have the puck in O zone with room to operate and we were almost more worried about just getting back to play D instead of looking to make a play. You have the puck look for offense!

Too many careless plays just getting rid of the puck, Minnesota's D is the best in the country you have to make things harder on them too many easy retrievals

Minnesota's offensive depth is much better than ours but I thought we did a decent job limiting chances from prime scoring areas. A much better job in coverage away from the puck as well as getting sticks on pucks/guys

After really sitting back in the 2nd I thought we came out decently aggressive in the 3rd but then about halfway through it is like a switch flipped and we went back to sitting back and chipping pucks in with really no purpose or even forecheck, Minnesota is too good of team to allow easy uncontested outs and think you can just win playing defense. The best defense against them is some o zone time and making their forwards play in the d zone.

Minnesota has better skaters than any team in college hockey. I'd put their d group at the top of the list as well. Part of the lack of o zone pressure was us as well though, seemed like at times they were so focused on playing defense they just pointlessly gave up the puck instead of looking to create and make plays offensively.
