Well they're dead tired, Duluth is much older, stronger, more physical. I hope our guys will stick around and develop and we can say the same about BU in the next few years.

Only one who is a legit NHL talent is Keller the rest of the underclassman need at least another year but don't bet on it

He has the talent, but he absolutely is not ready for the NHL. Too many mistakes, bad decisions, and weak plays. His body is the primary cause of those faults. He just isn't strong or experienced enough for the NHL yet.

The last PK is a great example. He made the smart play to bring the puck back into the zone to kill time, but then brought it behind the net and tried to shoot it around to clear it, didn't get enough on it, and essentially set it up in the zone for Duluth. We'd be furious with him right now if not for Duluth having too many men on the ice.

But he will be backed up by NHL talent even on Coyotes so more room for error. Look how Gaudreau jumped right in but he was older.

greenway needs a goal here for us.

That's gonna be it. Our best hope was to "steal a game"

Boy, Harper is a total defensive liability. Just gives up.

Not from Cloonan. Right before UMD scored he took it all the way across the slot and then behind the net without shooting it. I know we all know he won't score, but at least shoot it.

this game is winnable. the tough out was sioux. 6min. need to open it up and rely on jake to take care of any rushes coming back.
