Bets on the BSU series?  Can we at least get a split?

I want to take the under in both games because of Bemedji’s system and always low scoring games against us. But we just gave up 4 goals on 16 shots and our save percentage is under %900 so who knows. But not a good match up next weekend, that’s for sure.

Yeah losing that exhibition to that Canadian team or getting swept by Canisius was pretty bad

Or getting swept at home by st Lawrence over thanksgiving.

Does Berry just let Johnson and Moore do Rock Paper Scissors to see who plays?

I’d probably bench both right now if that was an option.

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

Is Draft Kings reaching out to you yet to bet on UND next week?

Two penalties apiece from your fifth year senior forwards is not leadership. 

The reason you bring guys like that back is for leadership and hopefully getting the guys to understand that even if you drill a team one night it will be much different the second night.  The leadership group was a big part of the problem in that regard.  Better get things rolling the rest of the games before Christmas or bringing back guys rather develop future talent looks like what St. Cloud did.  Looks very much to me like this team has taken for granted that they would be winning and not put in the work and discipline necessary to make that happen.  Still time to right the ship, but regional sales could be pretty weak.  Poor timing to send out an email on that by UND.

Miami is way worse that SL or Canisius

Somebody needs to start that fire Berry thread ASAP. I know they're not going to make a change but good gosh, It's bad in siouxville

Yeah, a lot of the defense seem to be playing shinny hockey without regard to their own end of the rink.

Moore is out injured so half of that is already taken care of for you.

 Miami is 31st in the PWR. So not too far behind UND.

I’m aware. But we don’t have enough healthy D to bench the other one so… that’s too bad.

This is probably the lowest point in Sioux hockey in 20 years. Don't know what to say anymore, but the rest of the season looks like a wash

2018-2019 team was really bad. And was a second straight year not making tourney. Senden was a freshman that season and is now a second year captain. Hopefully he can impact this team from a leadership standpoint and turn this around. 
 

As frustrating as this season has been, that team was way worse. IMO.

Are we sure that team was worse at this point? That team just couldn’t score. This team can’t defend.

UND didn’t show up tonight.  Why?

Does he take his +/- with him?

Would be a Bush League move.

Jake said it in the second period, something along the lines of “hard to be a goalie at UND, they don’t face many shots and also face power plays because of penalties and some break aways because of the defenseman looking to score”.

So apparently we should just accept a save percentage below 900. 

His comment made zero sense. Goalie play (overall) has been iffy, D play isn’t good at all, F D zone coverage is really bad, undisciplined play has cost us a few games. This is not the UND squad we’re used to, it’s a really average team at the moment.

Is Gino available?

Naw, you have to play all the most skilled guys who had the highest expectations. Can’t bury next year trying to save this year. It’s either going to work itself out or not. This wholesale change approach isn’t working at all. Leave the lines as is for awhile.

To go to the coast?

I’m sure it’s about keeping a calm demeanor, but I wish Berry would be very upset in an interview instead of talk about the positives and others have said, same old talking points.

Bye. I’d be okay with that.
