Miami @ UND

[burd]

Miami works hard, is well coached, and has a great goalie, but they don’t have a Plante.

A win is a win

The closer they get to playoffs, the more important it becomes to win the 1-0 or 2-1 games.  And they played well.

I know the thing about the scoreboard, but outshooting the #22 npi team 42-12 is pretty wild.

He sounds especially bad tonight but I thought he has sounded pretty rough most of the year

Yes, he does.  I was wondering if any of the super fans on this board knew what was going on.  I hope he is all right.

They have a Deputy, a Grimes (Walking Dead Deputy), a Delic, a Giampa

Emery is so good. When he skates the puck deep into the offensive zone, you can see the scoring potential. I hope he finds that confidence, before he leaves.

He’s also under weight. No fault to him, as I’m sure he eats more and better than I do…

Has Spuny always been a thing???

They wore special warmup jerseys that had their childhood nicknames on the back for “kids takeover night”. They will be auctioned off. Most were like this and very straightforward. Kernan’s was my favorite.   First big hit of the night…#15 “Boom Boom”’.  🤣

Don’t suppose someone has a list of the sweater nicknames, only saw a couple.

The auction is live here and you can see all of the nicknames.  https://my.onecause.com/event/organizations/77c1bd60-1557-4b05-b438-fe662ca5eeb1/events/vevt:b08a1345-5dbf-44b9-aa57-8cabf010942e/auctions/silent-auction

Someone already said it, but listened to TH tonight on the way to school activity and he sounded sick.  Mike Lamoine did his best to try and help him through but you can tell Tim is hurting.  Nowhere near normal energy.

Happy for the win...that was one of the most physical games I've seen this year.  Miami may not have a lot of scoring power but those guys finish every check.  Their defenseman, #2, was hitting everything on the ice.  This was a good test for the boys; not a pretty game in any respect but they ground it out and found a way to win.  I'm looking for more of a 4-1 or 5-1 type game tomorrow.  Score early and often on that goalie; looking at our top guys to have a little more success putting the puck in the net.

Hak gave the team a pregame pep talk and Young's dad was in attendance for his GWG:

Dave Hakstol was in UND's locker room before Friday night's game.

"He talked to our guys about tournament-style games, how hard they are and how you have to be ready for anything," UND coach Dane Jackson said. "One of his key points was that you don't always have to make a great play, but you can't make a weak one. I thought it was kind of ironic that we had a game like that."

Nice.  What camera and lenses do you use for hockey?

It’s a Cannon 70-200mm. I decided I wanted have a better lens, so I upgraded. I bought it this last fall. I really like it.

I agree. I was wondering if anyone has seen Miami play this year? Are they always that physical or was that maybe their gameplan last night against us? I'm not sure I remember a game with so many big hits and all against UND.

It’s their style. Jackson adjusted, and wanted to match it. Worked out well.

I watched them beat Western last weekend with this style of play. Western outshot them but were out-physicalled by Miami. By the 3rd period Western was trying to avoid hits rather than skating offensively. Miami's #2 delivered some big clean hits.
