    I enjoyed that a lot too. Except that it meant I had to stand behind a student who was around 7 feet tall and probably should have been playing in the basketball game. Also, I love the band's enthusiasm, but man their cheers make me groan...

    And where was he going on that 2nd UM goal? And the only time he tracked the puck tonight was as he watched it being fished out of the back of the net.
    He was awful on Saturday. Honestly I wanted him pulled after the second goal. I just have never seen him recover once it starts to go downhill like that. That was the worst of the night, but it was a clear indicator "Hey, my head isn't in it." Benny Hill theme song worthy.

    Next weekend is the first ever Hockey East series at the Compton. Oh how I would love to see the crowd just as huge and into it for Merrimack as they were for Minnesota...
    Merrimack doesn't look as strong as a few years ago, but it's still Hockey East. With no football game to compete with, they should be able to get the students to show up en masse again.

      Have to say you flashy helmet guys looked pretty good this weekend. Fun games to watch although the feed was a little dizzying at times. Wondering if there's any word on Hinostroza?

        Word is he's fast, small and a great scorer!

        You give the students way too much credit. I hope they are deserving of your credit and not my pessimism...

          Only old enough to know the meme, not the actual show.

          Students love free stuff. There are giveaways. I'm fairly confident.

            So we're been missing 4 guys who were going to be eating up minutes. Does anyone have ANY idea when any of them will be back? 20% of the guys who were expected to dress for every game are injured and all we know is basically what we see from checking the final box score to see who has played. Is it the local press being lazy, or is Jackson simply taking advantage of the relatively mild interest in his sport (compared with football or basketball) to hide injuries? I wonder if those who follow North Dakota or Minnesota spend as much time wondering just how long injuries to key players will be affecting their lineups.

              I expect Hinostroza and DiPauli to miss a few more games. I'm guessing Voran and Johnson to be back fairly soon.

                Merrimack tries to grind games out so I expect a couple of one goal games as they block a ton of shots!

                  Except against Merrimack!

                  I do expect one game to be close. But one should also be a blowout. After a series with Minnesota this has letdown potential, but it's the first home series in Hockey East so it should be sufficiently hyped-up enough.

                    What is wrong with DiPauli? I thought he played well last season. I see he has missed the last few games.

                      On average Minnesota has so much depth injuries only effect the elite players on line one.
                      Slap Shot - 444 might want to consider a restraining order.
                      dggoddard - Minnesota is THE ELITE Program in all of college hockey.

                        Dude, the Irish twitter guys tweeted about Hinostroza this week. Info in web stories and injuries were talked about on the radio. Coach Jackson discussed injuries in pre game and was talked about again during the game. Not sure how you missed all of these?

                          He's fine now. He played tonight after sitting out a few with an injury. I guessed wrong about Mike Voran and Eric Johnson. They and Vince Hinostroza will be out for at least 2 weeks.

                          And since I am so not politically correct, did anyone notice the ND (and possibly college hockey) history made tonight? ND dressed both black players (and why wouldn't Ali Thomas dress after his gritty play last weekend?) and Thomas scored his first collegiate goal. The game-winner. Has there been a D1 team that has dressed 2 black players in a game? When I run down the list of black players I've seen, it's always one per team: Scooter Vaughan, Anson Carter, Quinn Smith, Ted Laviolette to name a few.

                          I'm still impressed with Stephen Johns. In fact, he might be my smiley. heart. this season. Well, after Voran shaves.

                                I actually forgot about them. Bernie played tons, but didn't John play in like one game? Was it while Bernie was also dressed?
