"It's going to be all healthy bodies in," Jackson said. "Everyone available is going to play. We've talked a lot about our depth this year. We think we have good players sitting out. Some guys that haven't gotten to be in there much like Dalton Andrew, he'll be in. We have full belief that the guys we put in will be ready to go and be good players for us."

Mercyhurst also battling with quite a few injuries.

Quote

Mercyhurst is expecting to get five of those 12 players back this weekend — forward Will Schumacher of Prior Lake, Minn., forward Noah Sedore, defenseman Kaden Muir, defenseman Caleb Price and backup goalie Salvatore Evola.

The Lakers will still be without seven others and plan to keep defensemen Tyler Nasca and Jaryd Sych up front.

This is it. Legitimately do not care the score. Just get the dubs.

Yeah, I can't argue that, but if we continue to take care of business the rest of the year, an OT win wouldn't harm us much.

Hopefully I don't regret this, and it usually bothers me when fans don't respect the opponents, but there's still a lot of talent in town and I'm expecting two convincing wins.  

Even with guys missing, the pressure game UND has been playing should be intact, and hard to handle.

So if USA gets beat by the Finns on Friday, we potentially get Emery and Zellers back for the Saturday game?

You’d think so, one of the advantages of this years world junior is how close we are to it

Emery and Zellers should have plenty of energy based on their minutes this tournament.

Yep, hehe, they could get back, celebrate a dub with the team & catch up & still sleep in their own beds…….but am thinking Zellers will pot another winner instead.

Seeing Mercyhurst is winless gives me a pit in my stomach
