If he signs, he will never be seen or heard from again. He'll get buried on the depth chart in the AHL and won't get a sniff at the NHL. He is nowhere near ready for the next level.

I wouldn't be surprised if he is a three- or four-year player.

Assist on the game winner for Ludvig too....

Kind of like it that Blake didn’t celebrate after the goal.  I’m sure they are happy they came back, but I like that the expectation is more.

Prediction: that's not going to happen. Ludvig will be between the pipes. He's usually really good in a game following a shaky start. Those aren't all on him. His D was a bit pedestrian at the beginni

Not sure if someone has mentioned this yet.  Tim & Darren were commenting during the 1st intermission that ice conditions were not very good. Said something like "it will be less bad to start the 2nd".  That aside, there were a lot of sloppy passes and dumb turnovers.

Exactly what I said about Blake. Winners have higher expections than last night’s performance.  Sometimes a win isn’t win.

And sometimes a near loss can show that players are developing higher expectations for themselves and their teammates.

Considering the Carolina Hurricanes do not currently have an AHL affiliate and their prospects are scattered among several AHL teams, it would make more sense for Blake to stick around until his readiness to make an NHL roster is more obvious.

I like the quote by Blake in the herald article....I feel it shows some leadership, and shows that he expects more out of himself and his teammates.  No need to over celebrate winning a game in overtime, that should have been closed out halfway through the third...expect a big push, and a big night tonight...just what my gut says

What was the quote?

I was wondering about that, because there were some bad bounces and guys leaving the puck as if it was sticking to the ice. It also looked like the puck was bouncing. I know it's warmer in Ohio, than here. A couple of guys bit it and there was no one around them.

Team D was atrocious early on. Goalie didn’t save the day. But they locked in when it mattered. It was lt wasn’t bad bounces.

Expand  

There were definitely a couple bad bounces, but I don't disagree we didn't play our best defensive game.

All four goals against Ludvig were solid scoring chances. Sure, he’s stopped them before. His defense left him out to dry every time. 
 

Now, Berry is the ultimate players coach. Why the interviews after the game, if he’s just gonna sugar coat everything? It just looks bad. Really no excuse for the turnovers and poor back checking. This is against a bad team, that was without their top players. Blake running to the locker room after winning the game, tells the tale.

Expand  

Again, what did he sugar coat? Solid scoring chances? Like on the horrendous bounce that lead to a wide open breakaway on the SHG? 

Whatever. Long story short, d corps didn't play their best and Luddy didn't bail them out. Got the win. Let's stop going in circles lol.

Or the fact the late reaction to the puck and bad clearances due to pressure from their opponent.

Expand  

I thought Miami was very aggressive on the forecheck throughout the game; they weren't going to give UND an inch out there.  I'm sure we'll see more of that tonight.

It appears to be the book on UND: through tight marking and physical play with pressure by taking away time and space thus affecting decisions, errant pases, and creating frustration.  We saw last night UND frustration especially when confronted.  UND can clean their clock physically but it distracts from movement down ice.

Isn't this the game plan of every team that plays hockey?

No.  If the marking is to tight and the tight marking team gets beat, it can lead to a fast transition by the team being marked up and the marking team will have players out of position.  A tight marking team can also run the risk of getting calls for interference, roughing, etc.
