Not what I'm saying at all, just pointing out the facts.  Looking at our schedule before the season it actually looks about right, it just turned out that a lot of the teams we played are having down years.  The schedule has 2 home and home with teams within easy driving distance, a cupcake coming back from Winter break, a decent ECHC Team, and a long time rival.  Turns out not much room for Error when this happens.  Currently losing at home to a bad MN team is costing us the #1 overall seed.

 

No, I know you were only pointing out that’s how it turned out, and just to be upfront, with our league I’m not opposed to having some games where the odds of winning are more skewed to UND, and I want to win National Championships so the higher percent chance you can beat a team, the better. Nobody asks who you beat along the way, as long as you have the hardware in your trophy case.

Love it. 

The most interesting part to me is Jan comes in as a strong but not elite recruit in the first year in recent history that UND doesn’t have a (NCAA championship winning) goalie coach on the bench…and they finally get back to having a top goalie, the first to win it as a freshman no less. After years of poaching proven goalies from other teams, with mixed results…who often regressed here vs. their prior teams. 

I wouldn’t have guessed it would play out this way after Karl’s departure but Jax just keeps showing he knows exactly what needed to be done.

Congrats to Jan and team. Just a couple more boxes to check!
