    Wow that was close!! The Mavericks ALMOST scored. What a great game by the Nanooks! Killing not one but two 5 on 3’s, going 8 for 8 total on the penalty kill along with 2 power play goals. Congratulations to Anton Martinsson on his first career shutout, a great game from him all of the defense!

      Congrats! At least one Alaska team is having a decent season.

      From ADN:

      "According to NCAA, the (UAF) hockey team used ineligible players in every game played from the 2007-08 season to the 2010-11 season. Over that span, the wins and ties will all become losses. 4 wins and 2 ties came against rival UAA".

      UAF is 56-86-12 vs. UAA.

        Only other team to blank Mankato this year was St. Cloud - who the Nanooks had on their heels for two games in their barn. This is what our guys are capable of and I'm glad it's clicking. Now they just have to keep it going.

          Great team effort last night as the Alaska Nanooks defeated the Minnesota State Mavericks 5-0. With solid defense and goaltending, and goals from Frye(2), Munson, Thompson, and Leer, the Nooks were able to get Martinsson his first shutout. A few shots from last night:





          Munson's shot over the right leg pad made it 3-0.


          MSU's best chances came on two 5x3 opportunities, but Martinsson was up to the task.


          Leer's hard work and goal in the front of the crease made it 4-0.


          Even up 5-0 late in the game, the Nooks worked their butts off to maintain Martinsson's first shutout. Total team effort last night.

            Well, that was ugly. Coach had some choice words for Mankato after the fact...I’d say the gong show actually started Friday night when they took a run at Martinsson. But taking a run at one of our best players 15 seconds into the game makes your intentions pretty obvious. Mankato knew we could beat them 5x5 so they made it a special teams game and it worked out in their favor.

              Exactly. And they also knew that our guys wouldn't just take it. Our guys are good 5x5 and can skate with anybody. But to beat a team that wants to play like that, you have to let them dig their own grave and keep taking penalties. You can't come back at them - especially with the officiating in our league.

              Heading to Houghton this weekend. Hoping for a good time.

                In other words, they were fishing and we took the bait.

                    UAF made the kind of hockey history on October 10th 2015 that no team wants to claim – the Nanooks became the first NCAA Division I victim of Arizona State.

                        Sure would be nice if Hope and Leiter, two of our top goal scorers and energy guys were available. Do we have any clue how long they might be out?...game to game, a couple of weeks, not till the playoffs, the rest of the season?

                          Leiter travelled - so there's obviously a good chance he can play. Hope may be out for a while - rest of the season, perhaps from what I've heard.

                            Happy to see Hope in the lineup!

                            Bruce mentioned Leiter did not travel. Guess it was backwards. Either way, hope to see Leiter back soon!

                              Saturday night.
                              Nooks on the PK but up 2-0 with 6 seconds left in the first.
                              Nooks up 2-1 with 5 seconds left in the first.
                              Nooks had a perfect opportunity to clear the puck but decided to skate a bit and wrap it around the boards. Unfortunately didn't get it out which lead to the MTU score. We sure shoot ourselves in the foot too often.

                                Nooks trail 3-2 after two.
                                This game is frustrating. We can't play with a lead. Period.
                                We always seem to sacrifice a "quick" shot when the other team and goalie is out of position, for a fancy dippsy-doddle pass that seldom connects.
                                How about just getting the puck on net and working your butt off for the rebound.
                                We're losing way to many individual puck battles.

                                The Nooks seemed a little p$$$ed at the buzzer so maybe they'll come out with a little fire in the third.

                                Go Nooks!
