Omaha @ North Dakota - closing out the 1st half

[Sweethockey]

my favorite photo from last night! Thanks to @Russ Hons for taking this!!

Thought the guys generated a ton of offensive chances where it easily could've ben 7 or 8 goals for us. 2nd period was a little bit of a sleepwalk at times but another well played game and I think the end of game crap from UNO really will have the group focused on trying to embarrass them again.

Hopefully a rally point for the boys is the end of game tussle.  Can't have a Saturday let down where Spunar saves their bacon.

Set the tone, get ahead, and be able to play a lot of kids late.

There is nothing between now and Mercyhurst.  End the first half the right way.

+1 on all this. 
And also avoid any crap that UNO tries to instigate…because you KNOW that they will. Especially Hyland. We can’t afford any more suspensions against Mercyhurst.

Unless there's an unknown injury or illness.....why???????

You knew that they were gonna give Homer another game at some point. 
Hopefully he can shut the Mavs down

He played a good game against them last time. I figured he’d get back in for the Mercyhurst series.

Is Dalton Andrew hurt or in the dog house or something?

I see why they went with an extra D-man

Been a while since we've seen Gibby.  Rally cry win one for the Gibster.

I would've went with Spunar, but I also spend weekends at mite practices and dance recitals.

Schlossman mentioned on his podcast he thought they wanted to give him a game before the break, so I’m not surprised about this. 

[Dustin]

I'm ok giving this game to Homer.  Can let Spunar ease his way back in against Mercyhurst and probably pad his stats, too.

As they should. Spunar has been awesome but everything should be a competition at this level. Homer, by no means, was bad.

We need Mike Prpich to come back and give a nut shot to 71 and 12.

I suppose you want your backup to have some work so they aren't rusty.

God, that was so classic! I still remember the Gwoz standing on the dasher, screaming at the refs for missing that epic cup shot at the face off dot right in front of the DU bench. That’s what I call a little street justice.

Anyone having issues with the stream? All the other games work.

On now

I think it is unwise to bench a hot goalie. Not what I would do.

[bcblues]

Let's play hockey!

Stay out of the stuff after the whistle 

[cberkas]

Homer, think next time

Team looks deflated without Jan
