The Beavs @ UND

[nodakgirl93]

Need a statement win tomorrow. BSU is a hardworking team sure but UND also needs to be that. Need the talent to show up.

I’m not impressed. Get real people.

Nobody asked if you were impressed.

Finding a way to win against a quick and desperate to win team is never a bad thing.

Getting behind to such a team is another story.

Still a win is a win.

Yes for sure.
He's really had a great first half of his freshman season.  Exceeded my expectations.

[Esoteric]

Why would Jake encourage the other team to review something.

He's starting to rush the puck out of pressure more, too.   Signs of Stecher, which someone here observed a week or two ago.

Very impressed with that kid so far. Can put him out with confidence in any situation. 

[gfhockey]

If there was one last thing to complain about Blake made that ot goal all about him 

 

he never would have scored it unless he got the pass 

[Oldguy]

Stickhandling and passing tonight was sub-par.   The boys looked a step slow too - I found myself asking "where the hell is the oppostion"? (meaning, where are the green jerseys) too often.  However, this team found a way to win, which they have been doing.  Need to put a better start together tomorrow, but a good ending tonight.

Would have loved to see Blake turn right to Livanavage to recognize the great pass, but I think Blake has kept his celebration the same since high school, so just happy we won.

Good games from Berg, Johannes, Livanivage, and once again Strinden. I’d switch Strinden and albrecht. A line of Jamernik, James, and Strinden is more of a scoring threat.

That thought has crossed my mind, though I think this is a pretty tight team.   Noticed also that Perron often points immediately to primary assist after scoring.   I like that kid too.  He'll make some major noise for us before long.

The same thing could be said for BSU,

It does not take much to throw yourself off of your game.  We could see tonight a lot of mental errors.  And people rightly point out that BSU plays up to UND (why is that?).  Some are even encouraging not to play BSU as often as UND does.  I like playing them, I would rather have BSU in the NCHC then St. Cloud.

Unfortunately, that is the state of sports period now.  How often do you see defensive backs in football pound their chest after one pass breakup, when they were burned the rest of the game?

Passing for sure was noticeably off.
Coming out of the zone, seemed too often that BSU would pressure and UND player would rush the pass directly to another BSU player.

It's inevitable that teams will devise good strategies against methods that have been working, especially against 1-ranked teams.   Our guys will adjust to those strategies too, given time.   This team has learned a lot about themselves in a short time.

Not great for the pairwise, but when you win, even in overtime, I'll take it. Suffering through the last years play, I'm excited, what this team can and could do.

[Username Taken]

Looks offisides but it also looks like Pyke, when he wasn’t even on the ice I don’t think. I’m confused.

Jake was right in that OT winner was offsides.

Don’t they get another timeout in overtime, or if you use yours in regulation is that it?

I’m thinking he went to for a change when Livanavage came on to set up the winner. So probably right after they gained the zone.

He would have gave credit where credit was due and pointed to the guy who spoon fed him the goal

I thought Livanivage started OT as the dman, if Pyke did than I’m sure you’re correct.
