This makes me very happy; the Boston Bruins
continue their domination over the Toronto Maple Leafs. After the UND vs. UNO game,
my wife’s cousin asked me what I thought and I told him, I was a fan of the
Boston Bruins from 1988 to 2011 and I had to wait a long time to watch them win
a Stanley Cup. I am not going to let this team ruin day. I am no too upset
about this. This is just one part of the season. There’s a lot of season left. This
is one game.
I must admit, I didn’t think that the season
would play out like this, not with the players that this team has on the roster.
So far, this team is under achieving and they’re really not doing much on the
ice. Tonight they played better. I think it’s all minor things that the
coaching staff will fix and fix quickly. If not, the coaching staff will sit
the players that aren’t playing well and try another player.
As far as fixing what ails this team, It will
happen either tomorrow night, next weekend, or soon. A Dave Hakstol team will
not continue to play like this for very long. This is a coach that bag skated
his team after they lost 1-0 to the BSU Beavers in November of 2011. If he
doesn’t have their attention, he will soon.
I thought that UND played well against UNO
tonight, In the second period. Bad goals have killed this team so far this
season. I also think the goaltending has been poor all-season long. I also
think that the forwards have been lazy getting the puck into the offensive zone
and the defensemen have been doing things a step slow.
UND has lost four straight game for the first
time since 2006. Something has got to give. So, their either going to get their
act together and play well, or their going to get buried in the bottom half of
the NCHC standings, time will tell. They have a tough schedule ahead of them in
November.
