brianvf Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Beat the Plante line, beat the Bulldogs! Also, keep them off the PP as much as possible. https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/can-und-slow-down-minnesota-duluths-big-line Quote "With any good players, it's important to try to take away time and space, especially on the rush," Jackson said. "They hurt us on the Friday night in Grand Forks, because they were entering and making lateral plays, delaying, using their vision and skill to make plays on the rush. On Saturday, we did a better job of really tracking hard and trying to defend the line well, to not give them time and space to make those entry plays." Quote UND also will try to limit Bulldog power plays this weekend. Minnesota Duluth is converting 32.3% of its advantages, ranking No. 1 in the nation. The top power-play unit of the Plante brothers, Shaugabay, Callum Arnott and Ty Hanson has scored 24 goals on the advantage — more than 50 teams in the country. UND's penalty kill, after a brilliant two-month stretch (killing 32 of 34 opponent power plays), has allowed five goals in the last 11 opponent power plays. Quote
