UND @ Arizona State

[Oxbow6]

Give ASU credit. Even though they didn't match up skill wise top to bottom with UND they weren't afraid to play race horse hockey. Both games this weekend were about as entertaining as you'll get.

Rickwood with 6 points on the weekend. (1g, 5a)

Ellis Rickwood has been the steel of the portal. The guy is a rockstar. Lights out in the Faceoff Dot, too.

This team’s depth has yielded great results and a lot of excitement.  That said, does the staff eventually start planning for NCAA tournament play when increased commercial breaks change line line-matching dynamics?    Or is that “overthinking” and to be avoided?

I can’t claim to know anything about coaching hockey, but that seemed to be Hakstol’s biggest plague - he didn’t/couldn’t/wouldn’t adjust from his 4 line rotation. While Hak certainly had some great teams, the 4 line depth of this year’s team seems capable enough to just be rolled one after the other.

Check out the faceoff numbers for the UND centers. Elis Rickwood is winning 60% of his faceoffs, that's huge when you're on the PK.

In a year or two I wouldn't be surprised if Johnny Walker goes from the ASU D1 club team to the NCAA team as part of the coaching staff.
