Last Fridays performance against CC wasn't something to write home about.

Agreed. That was not a good performance.

I'm not used to North Dakota playing awful in the 2nd Half.

Please stop dumb*, you're only showing us how stupid you really are.

Please, enlighten us as to how Minnesota can affect those things...

In looking at North Dakota's worst performances this season, there aren't all that many. We generally played well in most of our losses, but the loss last Friday to CC, the win over HC on Saturday, and the win over Notre Dame were probably our three worst performances prior to tonight. IMO, tonight's performance was the worst all season.

When teams play against very high quality opponents on their home ice, it happens. But I wouldn't expect someone who adores himself as much as you do to admit that though.

So you don't have an answer?

Well for one the Gophers did block shooting lanes and force some bad passes and pressured in the offensive zone, which can create turnovers. I thought the Gophers also played great on the back end and gave little to NoDak for most of the game minus a chance here and there.

It's very simple for the educated to grasp. You're obviously not catching on.

I'm not talking about forced anything. I'm talking about bad decision making when there was little to no pressure, poor passing when there were clear, wide open lanes, and a general lack of emotion. Basically, things that a decent High School team should be able to do.

Harley appears to be going with the JDubbs defense of not proving any evidence to back up his claim.

I don't think Minnesota had anything to do with constantly missing wide open passes, poor/shaky goaltending, poor decision making when you have all day in your own end, and playing with a lack of emotion. It wouldn't have mattered if we were playing Sacred Heart or Minnesota tonight...we weren't going to win.

Minnesota played well. As I've said many times, they are a pretty consistent group. They didn't play lights out tonight, but they didn't need to either. That being said, Minnesota wasn't the reason that North Dakota played as awful as they did. Tonight's loss was completely on North Dakota playing like, in the words of the eloquent KenGernanderguy, "poop."

Hopefully they figure their *** from their elbow tomorrow and put up a decent performance...

Sorry, but still sounds like sour grapes to me. Minnesota was the better team tonight, and is the better team in general IMO. Though it isn't by much.

Well it is Hockey Day MN tomorrow and some decent HS teams are playing, maybe Hakstol will have them watching.

If it makes you feel better to think that North Dakota played better than they did, by all means, keep thinking that.

IMO, it was our worst performance of the year.

Let's hope so. Maybe our guys will see what it means to play with emotion.

I feel fine regardless of what you think. We won
