What frustrated me listening to Berry’s post game comments last night was his acknowledgment of the penalty trouble the team got into. Broken record, tired of hearing about that week in and week out without any sense of improvement in that regard.
 

As an example, the penalty we took in the third didn’t burn us in the sense of giving up another goal but it took another precious 2 minutes off the clock for the team to try to generate some chances, gain some momentum. However, it felt like a period where DU really locked things down and UND had trouble as it was with zone entries and gaining O zone time. Quit talking about what we need to do differently and start doing it. 

Some of the members here seem to know about putting together more effective lines than the HC, and that's concerning to me...if one of your more productive forwards from last year (OMac) has 0 goals through 11 games, ya might wanna put him at center, coach. Geesh.

Season is only roughly 1/3 or so finished & a lot can happen in the 2nd half, but tonight feels almost like a must-win game for the team: if they lose, they miss out on gaining very valuable PWR points, become even more of a bubble team & enter the next 6 games before break with zero momentum. A win would be massive for their PWR & confidence.

Needed a center to replace Berg.

Put OMac at center between James and Strinden. Move the 5th back with Schmaltz and add Kunz. Swanson Sasha and Perron. Last 3 are your the 4th line. Got get some creativity on offense. 

He puts the lines together via xG of each player

So who were the passengers last night?

Even Littler with 8 and 27 was a good trio in Duluth with good size.  But I 100% agree that we need a line to load up some offensive lines. They may not be as defensively reliable as a line but we haven’t been defensively reliable half the games anyway so we might as well put a few more pucks in the net haha

I thought he team played a decent game but were outplayed by a better team. The players that took Berg's spot on the PP looked like they were too deep and took away a good angle to shoot from. That they are 0 for 11 without Berg is troubling.

Bubs finally started reading the forum and agreed to put Omac at center. Stick tap to @Oxbow6 for emailing the coach to get the job done.

OMac with his 1st goal tonight, assisted by James for his 1st assist of the season.

I have found it odd Berry has not often put those 2 together on a line considering the whole being linemates in juniors thing. 

[SIOUXELEVENS]

Way better lines , now keep them together to gel. 

[thUNDer]

No hatty tonight for Zeev……it did not go unnoticed by the team how he was taunting/trolling our fans after his impressive eng with 2 seconds left. Butthole!

I agree, but he'll probably experience Post Traumatic Stress Disorder as a result. 

Probably a bit of windburn as well with all those pucks whizzing by...

I don't think that the loss last night was TJ's fault. There is plenty of blame to go around. In the end, DU is just a fast, strong, skilled, and well-coached team that out played us. But I am in favor of developing our own goaltenders, and not relying on the portal for our goalie every year. Hobie has the potential, he just needs the experience. And the team needs to gel with one main goalie.

 

I think it is going to be another tough night for green fans. I have a sneaking suspicion that DU can kick it up another notch from how they played last night.

[Parkers Pros]

Was that the worst video intro or what..

Let's play hockey!
