  • UNO @ UND: Dave vs Dean, and another chance to step up a rung on the ladder.

    I guess this thread could have just as well been hosted in the UND season thread since UNO only has 2 fans posting on USCHO but sometimes formalities are what keep us from being associated with the rabble. Go!

    Re: UNO @ UND: Dave vs Dean, and another chance to step up a rung on the ladder.

    This should be a good bellwether series for both sides. If either side can come away with 4 points they will put themselves into position to try and win a MacNaughton in the second half of the season. I have yet to see UNO play, but if they are like any other Dean Blais-led team I'm sure they will be fast and physical. It seems as though the Mavericks have yet to settle on a goalie. As for the Sioux, they need to continue to improve defensively, keep getting sound goaltending, and I would like to see scoring from all four lines this weekend. A split is the most likely result, but I think if the Sioux can keep up their momentum from the past two weeks, they stand a good chance at taking 3+ points. Here is how I would post odds on the series at this point...

    North Dakota takes 3+ points: 35%
    Split: 45%
    UNO takes 3+ points: 20%
    North Dakota
    National Champions: 1959, 1963, 1980, 1982, 1987, 1997, 2000, 2016

        Hoping for a split! Last year UNO laid a giant egg the week before coming to GF and then played really well so hopefully history can repeat itself. GO MAVS!

          Might as well hi-jack-a-thread also.....

          "The Team" formally known $OuIX get's swept. DeanO's squad will be ready.

          More posts in the Goof's vs.Tech thread then here.
          Nice Jersey's though!

              What in hell is that guy talking about?

              There are two outcomes: UNO tends goal, and gets points, or it doesn't, and doesn't. Also, won't Dean be MIA at World Junior? Nonetheless, these matchups have been entertaining so far.

              Finally, this: As long as the Fighting Irish exist and the Fighting Sioux don't, the NCAA is a racist organization.

              Good luck.

                This series should be fun. The Sioux are young, but they have some young guys with speed and skill, and Deano's teams are no strangers to race-horse hockey. Would love to be there.

                  I know that the Sioux will have Forbort this weekend, but will Blais be available for this series? Either way they should be great games, though hopefully we can hold UNO off the scoresheet a bit better than we did CC...

                            Could have gone either way tonight, I think. UNO-UND is shaping up to be Shakespeare the way it was meant to be played.

                              Great win!! Winning goal sounds like a beauty. Is there video anywhere?
