Pretty limp If we keep playing like we did in the 2nd and 3rd things could turn around for us. The line of Gaber Mac and Blake were beasts. I think the 2nd and 3rd peiods of this game will be pivotal to us turning things around. Karl must have put these lines together for this game love the lines. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have some line combos now that show chemistry if Berry doesn't put the forwards names in the hat again to draw lines. Bast looked good along with most of the rest of the defense excluding a couple D. Think the Beaver gets pounded tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxbow6 Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Until this team can keep the puck out of its own net consistently not much will change. Give up an early goal 4 minutes in. Then go down 0-2. Then give up goal 30 seconds after scoring one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might be the only one who thinks this but I think we turned the corner in our season in the 2nd period last night. Just don't mess with these line and D pairings barring injury and we should get the ship righted soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m on pins and needles as we get to less than 2:00 left in the period because you can pretty much count on someone falling asleep and an opposing goal being scored.

jk Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I don't think it was a second period last night thing. I think they bottomed out against Denver and have been slowly improving since. Last year they struggled in the first half, getting dominated Friday and scrounging out miraculous close wins Saturday. Driscoll struggled. In the second half, Driscoll found his game and they went on their run. They're getting close to going on a run now, but it won't happen without better goaltending. I still think DeRidder is the most likely to find that level of play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

siouxweet Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 11 hours ago, brianvf said: Yep. UNO moves up to #22 with their win (DU slips to #4)...which moves UND to #26. UND can sure look dominant at times (2nd period tonight), but certainly can't string that into a consistent level of play for a full weekend. Will we see another UND weekend sweep this season? Holy Cross on opening weekend was one. Hopefully Lindenwood in early Jan. Not sure on any others. Just imagine where UND would be if they would have played a real team that first weekend instead of Holy Cross. Low 30's in the pairwise??

I may be overly optimistic but I really like these line combinations and D pairs. We will need goaltending to come around but I thought Helsten was very solid once he settled in in the 2nd and 3rd. We overcame two 2 goal deficits and Blakes goal should have counted as how the rule reads. Berry needs to stick with last night's lineup barring injuries imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shutdown line just works and the Gaber/Blake/OMc line could put up a ton of points if they stay together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
