Re: Alaska Nanooks 2017-2018 Season

UAF fans, hope you all have a great Christmas and holiday season! Thanks for the hospitality during our trip!
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks 2017-2018 Season

Jack Weiss, been there done that and am completely clear.
You can be also.
Hang in there and best of luck to you for a speedy recovery.
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks 2017-2018 Season

If you doubt that Weiss will come back even faster and stronger, then you don’t know jack!

Go Nooks!
 
Re: Alaska Nanooks 2017-2018 Season

This weekend: UAF vs UAH

Lots of hockey left but can’t afford anything less than inspired play. Every loss will be painful. The Nooks have 7 series left [UAH, MSU, MTU, FSU, NMU, BSU, UAA], 4 at home and 3 on the road. We can’t afford to drop a game to UAH at home.

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!

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.

Re: Alaska Nanooks 2017-2018 Season

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.
