Oxbow6 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 1 hour ago, AJS said: Seems like such an obvious combo. Too simplistic of a take ( @burd ), but I cannot figure out ( & @Oxbow6 is right on) why Berry refuses to put Schmaltz as the 4th line C. For those saying it’s his Face Off %. I believe he has the lowest of the 4 that were Centers last night. Again we are all just fans with limited actually hockey knowledge......however there is still something to say about the eyeball test game after game after game. Screw @stoneySIOUX metrics! My eyes tell me Perron needs to be a top 6 guy. My eyes tell me Strinden needs more ice time. Creating chances and scoring goals matters. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having Perron on your line is a little like having R Grimaldi on it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 The thing with Perron is I can see the skill, it's so obvious, and impressive when he gets a little bit of space. He's the perfect prospect for college hockey because he gets bumped off the puck easily against the boards so he'll hit the weight room hard in the offseason and add a new dimension to his game. He needs to get some of that Gaber(or Grimaldi) strength and he'll be unstoppable. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 4 minutes ago, SIOUXELEVENS said: Who would we take out of the top six? This is probably the case, as we seem to have more of a 9/3 lineup now as far as offensive lines and defensive lines, so it is hard to not have a few guys that seem like they should be up higher in the lineup. A lot of us, including me were thinking that depending on game situation, the Blake line should see less playing time. To me, our lineup issues seems more of a good problem, rather than bad. There is always going to be someone that either should be in the lineup, or on a different line. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oxbow6 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 The easy switch IMO is you flip Johannes with Perron especially if Schmaltz stays where he's at. As @tnt mentioned it is really a top 9 which is a good problem to have. Skill just feeds off of skill. It's not complicated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I only remember him getting careless at the blue line one time...also was in position on defense most of night and broke up several plays where they tried to throw it in the middle. Yeah he made about 3 passes that ended up on the tape of someone wearing whine but anytime that happened he was in good position to prevent a major breakout or scoring chance. Definitely the best game he’s played defensively this year. I think the bigger rink plays to his advantage but of he keeps trending the way he played last night, this team will be scary. I’m also in the camp that Schmaltz needs to bump down to 4th line so we can get strinden with Jammer and Perron because even though they are all right handed shots, that trio could make up a top line on many teams.

Wasted talent sometimes in that others were just not playing at his quickness level. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I really like him and think he will be a very important part of their future success. Has to adjust a little to the physical side of the game at this level, but he sees the ice well, has huge stick skills, a quick release, and works hard.

TwamleyShuffle Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Calling for the Business Suits tonight and the Nodak Jerseys for one of the DU games. No many bigger games on the regular season schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 This rivalry is a bit underrated, we've ended their season and vice versa quite a bit over the past decade. With the nchc 3 peas in a pod system starting next year, we're going to see a lot of them going forward. Their school's future may be in question, but these games are always fun.

Godsmack Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 When I got home from the CC game, I plugged my phone into the tv and watched the replay of the UND game. Was it me, or did it appear that after every time UND scored a goal, the volume went way down as if to prevent the tv viewer from hearing how loud the UND fans were. I wasn’t going to bring this up but since people have been talking about some of the various items regarding the announcers and production, I thought I’d throw it out there. Given St. Cloud’s history with their engaging in petty little shenanigans (remember when their news paper blurred out the Indian head on the player’s Sioux jersey for an article years ago? Or the tv broadcast refusing to show the Sioux logo on the screen?-they went with the interlocking ND instead), it wouldn’t surprise me if they did some manipulation with the sound last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nodakgirl93 Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 So what was the reason for the goal to be waived off that would have put und up 4-1? The whistle was very close to when the puck went in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol I don't know Schmaltz's xG, but I bet Perron and Strinden's are both better. I wholeheartedly agree Schmaltz should be 4C and I would prefer Perron sees much more ice time. Strinden, too.
