Popular Post AJS Posted March 30 Popular Post Share Posted March 30 3 minutes ago, Benny Baker said: Cam Johnson was wildly inconsistent. I was always nervous which Cam would show up to games. The year he backstopped UND to a national championship included the following performances, for example: pulled at Bemidji after 2 goals on 8 shots; pulled at St Cloud after 3 goals on 13 shots; 4 goals on 23 shots against Omaha; pulled against CC after 3 goals on 11 shots; 8 goals on 54 shots during a weekend at Denver; pulled against Western after 3 goals on 4 shots; 4 goals on 26 shots against Duluth. He had a helluva national championship game though to go along with that 4-game shutout streak against Denver, Duluth, and Huntsville. He also shut out Western Michigan 35 days before that performance where he allowed 3 goals on 4 shots against that same Western Michigan team. His SV % that year was .935. Maybe it’s just a feeling. I felt they could win it all with him. I felt the same with Scheel. I don’t believe Persson could. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 2024-25, UND will have two-game home series against Robert Morris and Boston University. It will take on Minnesota State-Mankato and Cornell in two-game road series. The Fighting Hawks will host Providence in the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame Game, and they'll play a two-game series against Bemidji State with one game in Grand Forks and the other in Bemidji.

Please please please stop scheduling Bemidji every fricken year. Every other year would be more than enough. Get back to scheduling Wisconsin. Try to get Michigan occasionally now that Red is long gone. Get Maine back on the schedule occasionally, anyone but a constant diet of Bemidji. 1 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just make Bemidji an exhibition game since most schools play another D1 team as an exhibition or they play a ACHA team. Or make a scheduling deal between Bemidji, St Cloud, and Mankato where the NCHC teams swap CCHA teams each night. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langster019 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Why does it seem the majority of people think Blake is good enough to go pro? He’s small and can be reckless with the puck. Can he score? Absolutely, but I don’t feel he’s close to NHL ready. I think it’d be beneficial for him to stay at least another year maybe even through senior year. If he were to leave now, I see a Kawaguchi or Adams situation, going to AHL squad then may not even hang there but moved down to the jungle. Could be proved wrong tho. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’ll only turn 21 just before next season so he has plenty of time. Needs to be patient and develop. Take time to do that now and reap the benefits down the road.

Those decisions aren’t made lightly, and Brandt isn’t so dense that he’d throw that out to the public without solid information. Idk. Him coming back is crucial for this teams success. He doesn’t, I doubt this teams ability to make a run. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he were to leave now, I see a Kawaguchi or Adams situation, going to AHL squad then may not even hang there but moved down to the jungle. Could be proved wrong tho. He’s way better (and has a way higher ceiling) than the two players you mentioned. He’s the definition of a late bloomer. He’s grown quite a bit in the two years he’s been at UND. Pretty sure he’s listed at 5’11” now. When he was drafted he was like 5’7” 120. His O is so much better than many of the college players. He definitely has to play better D however. He’s a significantly better skater than Kawaguchi. What Blake is missing is a trigger man (hopefully that doesn’t bring up the getter setter whatever posters ). But in all honesty…Blake needs an elite shooter with him. He’s going to be an elite robin as opposed to a Batman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
