tnt Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Didn’t watch the game, was it one of those games where the stats were irrelevant, or was BC just more opportunistic? Or did Michigan just start to press when they fell behind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Fellow attendees, any hockey world sightings? I saw Greg Powers and his (presumed) wife meandering, then moments later Rico moving fast with a VIP/worker pass around his neck. Also saw a BUTTER hat and realized it was former captain Gage Ausmus.

Unless BC didn't come out for the first 10 minutes of the 3rd - then anything can happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BC gets the puck and storms down the ice for a two on one and a goal a minute and 20 seconds into the game. They are so explosive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could see it coming from a distance and it was destined to go in. BC is the best team in the tournament. I hope Denver can make a game of it tomorrow.

SiouxFanSince1990 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Boston College has a very good goalie. Michigans goalie is average. Michigan was very much in that game until goal number four. Denver game was more of the same. Grind it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t going to get many of those high flying opportunities. Denver probably hanging 10 tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's how I saw it also, MI was down 3-0 in the 3rd & they were still flying around the ice. A lot of tenacity & pride in those guys and they played a full 60. No doubt a reflection of their coach, in part. Even though they lost, they left everything on the ice. That's all you can ask for as a coach & a fan. Despite them being one of the Axis of Evils, they did their school proud. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were impressive, despite losing 4-0. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfNDfan Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 d 15 hours ago, petey23 said: Wow a MEME? You really know how to put me in my place;-) I'm serious - think about it? Since 2000 - UND has won 1 Natty...ONE...despite having the greatest college hockey facility under the sun (true!) It was built so we could attract the greatest athletes to our storied program (true) We have had the finest UND pedigree coaches working - they just haven't been able to close the deal - why is that? Why doesn't anyone have the balls to ask? I guess you can just go and find another funny meme and plan to lose again next year. You seem to be used to it now. Look at the players Hak had? Toews, Oshie, Duncan et al and couldn't win ONCE in his tenure at UND? WHY? What was missing? Seems like he freaked out the team when they got to the FF - 4 Straight and no wins? Wished him well when he moved on to NHL and I still root for him there but for "whatever reason" he couldn't get it done. Seriously ask yourself why? MOVE FORWARD - Berry comes in and wins in his first year with Hak's recruits - beginners luck? Maybe BUT GREAT! We got one and it was nice. After that...? Another SLEW of TOP SHELF recruits that could never close the deal! Yes Covid f*cked us and all that but again - Berry is going on a decade since with nothing but great excitement with the teams he's cobbled and total disappointment in the post season. At least Hak got us to the FF where we got another week or two of optimism before our hopes were quashed like a stale Pall-Mall. All of this still begs the question - WHY? It's not the athletes - they show up. It's not the facility. There is nothing even close anywhere else in college hockey. So what is it? It's easy to blame the coaching staff but these are UND GUYS 100% - okay - I'm not blaming them. They're doing their job (within limits) so what else could it possibly be??? I think I know but I'll throw it out there to you guys? What do you think it is? Memes are alright for simpletons to reply but this is a serious question? Otherwise just keep banging your heads against the wall and it may take UND another 20 years to win a Natty? To me - that is unacceptable! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crb1 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 Well as much as it pains me to say this. I hope our coaches are watching and learning from 33 year old Coach David Carle on how you make adjustments and play to win. Not once has DU played the defensive shell game that seems to haunt us time and again. With that said DU is going to have their hands full today. I fully expect by the end of the day BC will have #6 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fully expect by the end of the day BC will have #6 We just plain aren't getting it done. Whether it's coaching philosophy (the shell you mentioned), game prep, building for the tournament, or recruiting we are missing something. Probably a combo. Two sad things about this - one - we don't seem to change at all. I thought Karl and Dillon would bring some changes but here we are on our 4th portal goalie and our defense (which was a total rebuild - another problem) seemed to have it together mid season then lapsed into missed coverages, turnovers, and horrible passes. Two - it seems that Hockey Bubs has found the sweet spot that Football Bubba is in - winning just enough to get extension after extension but collapsing in the playoffs year after year. Oh, and third - our AD seems once again to be MIA. I really hope we figure this out and do what is necessary to become a top program again. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisUND1 Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 DU playing well. I don’t want to be a downer, but it feels like UND is miles away from being in a position to play in the title game. Three whole wins in NCAAs to get a shot at the title? Seems like such a huge hill for them to climb. C’mon Berry, staff, and team, prove me wrong next year!

Late season success and the ability to win four high stakes games in a row are the question mark with this program. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
