After having two "great games" against us, Close gets lit up by the Badgers. Now watch this guy get lit up in his next game. We will face good goaltending all year in the NCHC. Are we going to pull out the old "hot goalie" excuse every time we don't win? I bet BU's goaltender is licking his chops for next weekend. It could get him on the early season Hobey watch list. We did light him up last night to the point he got yanked 12 minutes into the game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
01grad Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Crazy what happened Adam Johnson former Duluth/Hibbing guy with Nottingham. Skate blade to neck and died. Things like this make us realize much bigger stuff out there. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12683967/amp/Horror-ice-hockey-star-horrifically-hurt-game-Nottingham-Sheffield-teams-fans-told-leave-stadium-major-medical-emergency.html 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oxbow6 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Johannes (getter) would be great with O-Mac (setter) and Perron (scorer). Plus he has size, grit and good skill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Godsmack Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Sorry, very late to the party here but what happened during the handshake line? I noticed a Mavs player bumped Johannes and then there were words exchanged. Was this because of his cele after scoring? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he might get a crack with one of the top groups, but he sometimes holds on to the puck when a pass is warranted. Since he is scoring now, maybe let James or Strinden get a crack first.

Was this because of his cele after scoring? https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/hunter-johannes-delivers-again-with-third-period-game-tying-goal Quote A scuffle nearly broke out in the handshake line Saturday night in Ralph Engelstad Arena. The target of Minnesota State's ire appeared to be UND fifth-year senior forward Hunter Johannes. "Somebody came at Riese (Gaber) and somebody grabbed me from behind, just saying a few things," Johannes said. What were they upset about? "I don't know," Johannes said. "They were just yelling at me. I don't think they liked that I scored, honestly." He seemed to celebrate his tying goal a bit near the Mankato bench, which may have irked a few of their players a little. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His offensive upside isn't fit for a 2nd line winger. He's a college coach's dream as a 3nd line centerman with good 2 way wingers. Then you have a top 9. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is responsible in the D zone with limited offensive upside. They need to give James a shot with OMac and Blake. I think Albrecht or Strinden would fit in well with Jamernik and Johannes.

He gave their bench a look after his ostentatious celebration. Not surprised he was the target, but personally I'd be more pissed at the 3 (!) players he caught napping on that play. If it was any of those three, that's incredibly poor sportsmanship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's unfortunate that all our Pairwise building Games are at the beginning of the year because I see this team like the sandelin teams where they build throughout the year and peak at the end. I'm not predicting a national championship, but I do believe they are going to get stronger and stronger as the year goes on. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I remember right with the micalachuck incident, one of the trainers was a Vietnam medic or something and reached in and pinched off the artery. Such a terrible tragedy, thoughts are with Adam Johnson’s family friends and everyone at that arena. I can’t imagine being in attendance for that.
