Wilbur Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 Okay. Miami. They've scored one more goal in their last four games than I have this year and are losers of 8 of their last ten games. Swept recently at Denver (probably us soon too), and swept by Stu at Baxter last weekend. This has all the makings of a Ludvig sensational NCHC goaltender of the week Friday night performance 2-0 loss before a closed door meeting and a 6-1 win on Saturday night. Thoughts? Prayers? I see a split in Ohio. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 DeRidder provided some hope vs UMD. Needs to hold form. I'm gonna say sweep. 10 hatty Friday. 19 hatty Saturday and some lobby here for bringing them back for a 6th year. 26 sits Friday then will get at least 6 minutes total ice Saturday. 6 is extra Friday due to the CBS broadcast and a commercial timeout every other whistle but sits Saturday. 29 plays one night and promptly scores. 13 plays one night and leads team in xG opportunities. 25 gets a penalty for tripping Friday.....it's reviewed and is somehow deemed contact to the head. 5 and a game. NCHC suspenion on Saturday. UND is over 50% on the PP for the series. 15 is UND's best player on the ice both nights. 4-0 3-1 UND Did I miss anything?? 2 Quote

brianvf Posted January 24, 2023 Posted January 24, 2023 I'd love to see a sweep this weekend, but this team just can't close out a weekend. Case in point, the home Miami series in November. Throttle them on Friday, 7-1. And then lose 4-3 on Saturday. 1 Quote

Schmaltz has practiced in full this week. "He's back on a line," UND coach Brad Berry said. "He's playing." Expand Also a bit on Montgomery. Wonder what the heck kind of injury he suffered. Hopefully he can make a comeback either this season or next Quote The lone player expected to miss this weekend's series due to injury is sophomore forward Dane Montgomery, who has yet to practice with the team this season due to a nagging upper-body injury. "Dane is an unreal person," Berry said. "I thought last year, he gained some traction. He scored a big goal in Duluth for us as a first-year guy coming into our lineup here. I feel for him. He's battled an injury issue, a problem here, and he's handled it the right way." Montgomery, who played high school hockey at Grand Forks Red River, still attends every practice and watches from either the stands or the bench. "I know it's killing him," Berry said. "But at the end of the day, getting through adversity is something I know he can deal with and we're going to help him deal with that side of it." Montgomery played 16 games as a rookie, scoring one goal and tallying three points. "Even though he isn't part of our group on the ice in practices or games, he's still with us every day through meetings and different scheduled things we go through," Berry said. "We'll keep grinding away and hopefully he can be available for us one day to play." Expand 1 Quote
