I think they all feel the same about UND. with all the NCAA battles of the past, it is what it is. Should be a great frozen 4. Just sucks that a Boston school or someone hanging 10 will win it all this year. Quote

SJHovey Posted April 1 Posted April 1 What’s with the whole “10” thing. Is it like playground basketball, game over, disband college hockey has a sport? Quote

I long for the day where I can say that North Dakota has the most championships of all time in college hockey. Don’t want to go 2 back to a Michigan or Denver. Quote

Opening Pandora’s box to replies with this one… We folded like a cheap suit after 2 periods. Not sure what lesson Berry needs to learn but I hope he learns it fast. With a Frozen Four berth on the line I would have thought we would come out with fire - especially after a two period lead. This happens too much to Berry's teams for it to be chance or bad bounces. Winners do better under pressure. 1 Quote

Winners do better under pressure. Michigan did the same thing to MSU (although they were tied after two). UM scored a combined 7 third period goals against UND & MSU. That's crazy. I just can't believe that there wasn't much of a "push" from UND until after Kunz scored to bring us back to within one. Quote

I just watched a less talented QU scare the crap out of a super talented BC and almost bounced them from this years tournament. That truly was a bounce going one way to advance BC. Talent is good but it isn’t everything. 1 Quote

Winners do better under pressure. Wasn't UND's record 20-0 when leading after two periods this year? Seems like their protect-a-lead strategy has been perfect. I'm confused (again). 1 2 Quote

If you aren't as talented, I would argue you would lose more during the regular season as well. I think it is a mindset, and getting the players to perform on the big stage that is the issue. Maybe we are losing the battle of recruiting guys that refuse to lose. I know Carle has said he likes to recruit guys that have a pedigree of winning. Obviously UND has guys with that same pedigree, but maybe they need someone else to look at what they are doing in the postseason. I know Hakstol wasn't too proud and asked Gasparini's advice to try get over the hump. I would hope Berry would be open to some constructive criticism from a few mentors as well. Quote
