PCM Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 This article by Brad Schlossman was in Sunday's Grand Forks Herald. "It's a matter of getting hot at the right times," UND captain Matt Greene said. "You can win all the games you want at the beginning, but the only games that matter are the games at the end. As long as we put ourselves in position to be in the (NCAA) tournament, we should be fine. "We're starting to hit our stride as a team, and we're starting to find our identity. I think we did last weekend." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sprig Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 This article by Brad Schlossman was in Sunday's Grand Forks Herald. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sounds like a Gopher, although there's little left for the Sioux but to make the postseason, and do well. Hope they add goal scoring to their identity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jk Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 This is sort of off-topic, but instead of looking back for a better thread I'll put it here. Many people have commented on the lack of net-crashing by the Sioux as a key factor in the scoring drought. I found it interesting, then, to come across this comment by CC goalie CuMac after his win Friday against UND (from the CS paper): "The one thing about North Dakota is they throw a lot pucks on the net, and they try to go to the net hard and look for rebounds," McElhinney said. "They tried that again tonight, but fortunately my defensemen did a good job in front of me." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airmail Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 When we get up on a team, we've got to put the skate to their throat, so to speak." This has a nice ring to it. I like it. Good point on the CM quote, jk. I guess if anyone would know, he would. Sounds encouraging. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BringDeanBack Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I think that this last weekend was a huge turning point for the Sioux. They made it through a Fri-Sat weekend without losing a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cfm567b27 Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 Maybe he is buddies with Skippy and SOH. Funny how those two haven't been around as of late. I was expecting the usual Gopher scoring updates from SOH but he has been a no show lately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I liked the article. Sounds like the team is feeling better about how they are playing. Now all we need is some goals and offensive chemistry for the last part of the season. Looks like the intrasquad game played at Univ Park in the Fri snowstorm as fun.

Godsmack Posted January 24, 2005 Share Posted January 24, 2005 I was very glad to hear Berry and the team say they weren't frustrated but incouraged (still don't know if I buy it 100% but...). Having attended both of the CC/UND games, my observation was that the Sioux played as hard as they possibly could have. I was quite pleased with the effort as I was fearful that it was going to be a penalty-filled weekend for the Sioux. Perhaps the Sioux could've crashed the net more and it would've been nice to see the Sioux get more quality shots on net but you have to give credit to CC's D-Men as well as Zaba between the pipes(CuMac played Friday). Now the question I have is, how in the world did the Zaba of the Saturday Sioux game not show up a few nights ago against Duluth? He was very shaky against Duluth.
