The Time Out

This weekend, UND faces off against the Bemidji State Beavers in a home-and-home series. Tonight's game is in Bemidji. The Women also play in a home-and-home series with the Beavers. So, if you can sneak out of work, get to Bemidji for a double header.

Last weekend, after watching his goalie let in two goals in on four shots, University of North Dakota head coach Brad Berry called a time out. Apparently, the timeout worked, Cam Johnson was a brick wall the rest of the way.  When asked what he said during the timeout, coach Berry said this.

“I think some things have to remain unsaid,” Berry said. “It was professional. It was direct.  It was something that not only caught Cam but the rest of our team. It was just a way to reset our team. I think the biggest thing is the leadership on our bench as far as what we did after that. I think we have to tip our cap to the leaders on our team.”

Rough start or not, Johnson would settle down after the early goals and only let one more puck get past him the rest of the weekend.  Johnson finished the weekend with a 1-0-1 record, a 1.44 goals against average and .935 save percentage.
