Hitting the NCHC Road - UND Travels to UNO

[brianvf]

UND hits the road to Nebraska after taking 4 of 6 from Duluth.

UNO just completed a weekend sweep of CC in the Springs despite getting heavily outshot in the series.
They even started their backup goalie, Cowan, in the Sat game.
Four of their top five scorers are their USports/CHL guys, led by Pellerin.

So far this season, they've split with Mankato (home), split with UMass (home), and swept CC (away).

From what I watched of their CC series, they didn't seem flashy or super skilled...but they took advantage of their chances, were hard skating, and managed to score a few odd bounce goals.

PP: UND 23.5% / UNO 27.3%
PK: UND 81.3% / UNO 72.0%

Am I the only person who looks at this series and goes, 'Oof, not these guys again?'  It just comes across as a somewhat unattractive matchup. They seem to think they're our top rival. They're like 9th or 10th on the list.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown. Treat them like a farm team in the transfer portal era, think of this as an audition on the part of their top players.

Best thing that came out of adding Arizona State and St. Thomas to the NCHC is UND no longer having to be paired with Omaha.
