Purple Cows are one team I’ve always liked. Back in the old WCHA days they always played the Sioux tough. Now they have a kid I coached for a couple summers on a AAA team in Jared Spooner. Great kid but I hope he does well next weekend but with a couple L’s

Also a fun place to watch a game.

Not a pretty game but a win is a win. Hopefully a better effort tomorrow and another win.

Up in Reno watching the game on a tablet at a brewery.

Could not imagine having to watch Bemidji every weekend. Play lock down D but they are good at it, against UND anyways. Kawaguchi gets the tying goal and Michaud gets the winner in overtime

Took UND 55 minutes to score last night. Tonight 36 seconds

Nice, solid victory tonight. I'm still not quite sure where this team will end up, but I do believe the program has turned the corner after the last couple seasons.

I think they have too. I was a little disappointed that they slacked off the last five minutes and cost Scheel the shutout, but all in all, a solid win.

Team is holding opponents to the fewest shots on net in the nation and only gave up 15 to Michigan Tech last night winning 3-1. One thing that still stinks is the powerplay. Way to predictable

So far the PP is worse than last year but I think it will improve - hopefully real soon. Getting the puck in the zone with possession has to be better than dump and chase. Doesn't it?

It's possible to be too defensive on PPs, and I think that may be some of it. They seem to be getting in the zone OK, and they can control the puck fairly well. None of their D have shown that ability to move along the blue line and find lanes to shoot the puck through. Again, they may just being careful not to create a blocked shot breakaway. I think the PP will improve just as the team has improved overall.

Last night's game didn't seem like the blowout the score would indicate. I thought the first ten minutes were very even and then the puck started going in the net, with two straight PP goals. SOG were not nearly as lopsided as the final score but unlike last season the shots were coming from prime scoring areas. Last season this would have been a 3-1 game.

How this wasn’t a major penalty is beyond me. Hell it was even reviewed

Big early series at Denver this coming weekend. Split would be good and a sweep would be great. Obviously getting swept would suck.
