Honestly it’s the way we play…chip it off the glass and go forecheck. The problem is the game has completely changed…all these teams have skilled dmen that can carry/move pucks. We’re literally just giving them the puck back. I’m afraid this is it. Perron is obviously gone, maybe others too.

Prime times pissed away, destination flops, hosted tourneys absent... 

How much more can UND keep expecting the fan base to keep shoveling their hard earned cash or highly compounded credit towards?

The NCHC absolutely sucked this year as you only had 2 legit teams everyone else sucked.   There is a reason the conference did not have a good OOC record and that is plain and simple 7 of the nine teams were not very good.

UND had no forecheck  this season which was a big reason they spent so much time in their own end.  We used to forecheck the hell out of teams but that was yesteryear.

Time to put away the Sioux gear until October…Crap.  
Boys played well for stretches but offensive zone turnovers killed them.  Couldn’t clear the puck on D and just not enough sustained O zone time to be effective.  Gotta hand it to Western; they made more plays than Sioux and got the reward.  Interested in seeing how many people show up tomorrow’s  championship.

So is the game in Austin against Michigan State set in stone.  Might be very embarrassing for Berry if they can’t get a bunch of fans in a smaller arena.

Agreed. When it was announced UND would be playing Michigan State in Austin, TX, I simply shrugged my shoulders and knew I wouldn’t be shelling out money to attend. I used to get excited upon the news of destination games but the apathy has since kicked in. It sucks to have to admit this.

Thankfully I saved my money for an extra golf outing this summer.  The Berry Effect indeed!

Honest question? Just saw some posts on the fbook site about how we'll the team played.

How do these people even have internet access at the group home after lights out?

My gawd its baffling UND fans have gotten this ignorant?

Really hoping its just trolling the page.

In retrospect, losing to Omaha might have been more of an eye opener for people who can’t see the forest for the trees, which appears to be the case for the administration at UND.  It seems like it is just as baffling how Chaves keeps his job when the programs at UND are so dysfunctional.

Fully expecting a UND player to say they are glad they gave UND fans another chance to watch the team play in the Frozen Faceoff at the “X”.

Unfortunately I'm with you on this.  I passed on the $25 ticket tonight (excellent price by the way) and watched it on tv instead because it's much easier to just shut off the tv and move on.

Who cares what the other NCHC teams did this year. We couldn’t take care of our business and that’s why our season is done with.

That's what really bugged me!  UND had the extra skater on and do you think the crowd would get off their a**es and start screaming.  UND had homerink advantage in St. Paul - stands full of green and white.  WHERE THE HELL WHERE THEY DURING THE GAME??  Last one at the X - you'd have thought they never would have wanted to sit down.  They got a little loud eventually but then we get within 1 and they're staring at their phones again.  Pathetic...

Not much to cheer about when they would continually pass the puck to W. Michigan.

Those are the “real fans” that Chaves will listen to when he extends Berry another 3 years.

Where would Perron go? He’s not good enough to go pro yet.

Oddly, I don’t find myself pissed after the game. Disappointed? -Very much so but I kinda sorta managed my expectations about this game (as well as for tomorrow had we won tonight) going into it. Very proud of TJ and how he kept us in it. Feel terrible for the players. 

"Kinda sorta managed my expectations"

We've been doing this way too many times in recent years.

It's time for a hard reset of this program.

It's time to start setting high expectations instead of lowering them all the time.

Apathy is starting to set in with some of our fans. That is alarming.

He has showed flashes but nothing that jumps out at you to say that guy should go pro!

Why do you think perron is gone ?
