He doesn’t seem to concerned about laying a body on anyone. If a stick check doesn’t work, the goalies is going to have to come through with a key save.

That'll work about 85% of the time with our goalies.

Ralph was maybe 70 percent full tonight.  Why?

Wasted time and money attending that game tonight.  Next time, I will save that money and choose something else.  Vikes game sounding great!

Been traveling to see games since ‘Sandy’s’ playing days……where are you GF, need a welfare check? Many ups & downs but still excited to be going to Burrmidji Friday. Go Sioux!

Oh man trusting the vikings is asking for pain

Now it has become necessary to win 5 of the next 6.  Four wins would be a minimum to keep our head above water.

True.  But when folks have decisions to make about where to spend their hard earned money and better yet, time, what I witnessed tonight at the REA wasn’t remotely close to worth my investment and not comparable to what I experience in the cities.

yeah, that's not happening, unfortunately.  We were supposed to sweep this weekend against a "bottom-feeder" to get the confidence to go on a run.

5 of 6 def. is def not happening. This looks like a .500 club, maybe a click better. We’ll need to win our way though the nchcs to get in.

Boo berry?

[Bleedn Green]

another EGG! right out of the gate..

 

[Bleedn Green]

If we truly look at this team compared to any of our other championship teams,  This team is nowhere close.  Mediocre at best.

Again.....just have @Wilbur post Berry's post-game comments at the 10 minute mark of the 3rd. It would save us all a few minutes once the final horn sounds.

They could get some more ad reads on the Nodak Insurance post game show brought to you by Home of Economy

People said the same thing last year after the New Year.  Still a little early to say what we are going to be.

Probably - but according to the "Bubba Extension Factor" put forward by our AD there is absolutely no pressure to produce a winner.  Look at the overall state of UND athletics and I can't remember a time when things were worse overall.

That was a split if I recall… and if we are thinking of the same season.

Server at Red Robin felt sorry for us tonight and not only did he say he’d request an extra dose of sympathy, he comp’d us on our fries!

People won't show up if team isn't winning. No one want's to watch ugly hockey.

How far does this program sink before changes are made

It’s cheaper and easier watching the game at home or the bar. The atmosphere at the Ralph has changed a lot too. Student section should be behind and corner to the away goalie, so they can stand and be noisy. A la the gophers student section.

You would think Berry could get his team to perform better for his old coach when he is celebrating a National Championship reunion.  Performance ruined the reunion of many people in Vegas and now this reunion.

 

Ever think UND and the Ralph put a LOT of pressure on these players to "PERFORM" when there's a big "reunion" of alums or destination fans?  That undermines the program or at least the future of it imo 

SO SORRY you went to Nashville or Vegas - spent a lot of money and the team "RUINED IT" when they lost after you partied your drunk ass-off and had "slightly" less than a great time.  F*ck you? YES - Blame the team?  okay...they had the skates on and lost - ask them.

It's great to recognize old players and teams.  EXPECTING the current team will RISE to the occasion and WIN just for the alums and (again) the drunk fans also doesn't help the bigger picture of why we don't have a better hockey team.  It's just more sh*t they have to deal with rather than trying to better HOCKEY players.

On the positive side, you don’t have to worry about being shot going to an event here.

Maybe we should get a team of hockey players who do care about these things. Tradition and carrying on the lineage of the past players have built.

It certainly wasn’t from pressure when the coaches say they came out sleepy.  And you obviously don’t know me if you think that is the case, but your language and attitude sure give a window into your world.
