AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted March 23 Posted March 23 I had a ski trip the last weekend against Omaha and couldn't watch much last night, but I'm rooting for them to emerge from Sioux Falls, especially if the Gophers get them in the first round. Good for Gabinet and their program finding the success they've had in the second half. 1 Quote

TJ Oshie is the only guy I’ve seen be effective at that position and I’m not sure he wouldn’t be better elsewhere on the PP either. Quote

neoflex Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Morning hangover review after taking several deep breaths: it was an ugly loss, but in many ways it was set up that way. Putting gaber in the bumper position, backup goalie in, a lot of play from the third and fourth lines, and our defense handcuffed by not blocking shots. Taking that in perspective, I'm hoping we see what are team is capable of next week. Just hope we see incredible efforts and hustle & if we do that we will do fine. Quote

Smart move taking him off the wing where he snipes like our last Hobey winner for the last several years. Inexplicable coaching move. He was a non factor in the bumper spot. Did he play bumper at all this year? Seems odd that they would move him out of his “office” on the power play for this one game. 1 Quote

As frustrating as this was maybe you are on to something. Let's try some different things but don't put ourselves in a position that hurts us next week. If we win fantastic if not it won't be the end of the world. Quote

Except we prefer to skate the puck around the zone on the outside. Easy to defend, Defense just needs to shadow till the next player takes over. We don't move the puck fast enough to matter, we always hold onto it. Quote

Good for Gabinet and their program finding the success they've had in the second half. I agree. UNO has earned their way into the tournament. The run they’ve had this second half of the season is truly impressive. I think Schloss said at one point, they were 24th in the Pairwise a few months back and here they sit at what, 11th? I’m definitely buying into what Gabinet is doing and I’ve been one of his biggest critics the past handful of years. 2 Quote

90siouxfan Posted March 23 Posted March 23 Seems like this team and several recent seasons have this lack of fire in them.. Can Cary Eades guest coach for the next few weeks? As someone noted, seems like top lines sat more than usual... gaber giving a new pp assignment... back up goalie... is B-Rad playing the long game and this is his maniacal plan for the national tournament?? I miss Cary Eades, and I think this program does too. 3 Quote

The CHN box score said attendance was 8,977. I was there for the afternoon game and no way was it almost half full. I'm guessing maybe 2500. Quote
