HAWKS VS red cows (GAME ONE)

[Oldguy]

Simply CAN'T understand how the team was flat in a game like this. They clearly have not learned a damn thing from earlier this season.  MOST.. DISAPPOINTING...SEASON...EVER.

So who do we need to win or lose to improve in the pairwise??

Surely you can’t be serious?

Yeah. Still doesn’t change the fact they have only 1 win since ‘16

But it came against mighty AIC in the hostile environment of Scheels arena. That should get some bonus points.

The same AIC who knocked off St Cloud State a year earlier, right?

I set it up for him on a tee.

I turned down @Ice Arena Man‘s offer to carpool down to Omaha this weekend.  And boy am I ever glad I did.  

4-1 final tomorrow.  Season over.

I know some guys who may be teeing it up on Monday.

Hasn’t every team beaten St. Cloud in an NC$$ tourney game at some point? If you want to say that it’s a great accomplishment to beat AIC then knock yourself out. I’m sure Brad Berry would agree.

Guess it’s time to pull a Major League movie

take the plane away

no more whirl pools

make the team and coaches hungry 

[Bin]

I think it's time to put my Frozen Four tickets up for sale.

I’ll give Berry credit for that win because at least they didn’t underestimate their opponent the way SCSU obviously did the previous year.  Other than that, yuck.

Yeah because Berry always has his guys ready to play /s

What is wrong with Gavin Hain?  A 5th year senior and he does nothing out there.  Bad move to bring him and Senden back.  Just being honest.

Berry might be lucky the 2020 team didn’t get to play in the tournament…just sayin’

Disagree...That 2019-20 team would have definitely done some damage.  #pinto&colesmith

[farce poobah]

Lot of passes to an area, with a UND guy not where the pass went.   Is that the fault of the passer, the receiver, or both?  Either way, it looks like a team that doesn't like each other.  

Same thing on coverages.  Two guys cover one UNO player, which leaves someone all by himself.   They only scored on one of those tonight.

Weakest playoff game performance since ... lets say 1999.   But after 1999, the coaches made a bunch of changes to fix problems, and look at what they did in 2000.  I hope that happens this year.   

[cberkas]

When I hear Johnson is bad defensively.

Exabit A: the whole defense is bad defensively.

And had that team gone 0-1 in the NCAA’s after bowing out as a #1 or #2 overall seed…how hot would Berry’s seat be right about now?

Yea, nice try.  The 1998-1999 team was 33-5-2 headed into the NCAA’s before that disappointing loss to Boston College.  The coaching staff didn’t start off the 1999-2000 season thinking there were a ton of “problems” that needed their immediate attention.  Unlike our coaching staff, say, next fall, and what they will be dealing with…

Best shift of the game, and I think there were a bunch of undrafted guys out there for it.  Not sure how they're even on the team. 

There's always a silver lining to a playoff loss....ammirite?

Hopefully BB rolls out the same chosen few. Seems to have worked so far for 36 games. Why not pound in the final nail tonight?

[Wilbur]

This series has the feel of Denver from a few years back.  Foreign goalie plays well against a team that isn't that close knit (Ask Nick Jones how he got a concussion) and the season is mercifully put to an end.

Then we got this used car salesman @MafiaMan trying to buy all your Frozen Faceoff tickets.  Quite the final chapter to this book.

He has taken the same amount of penalties as he has points through 36 games.
