A Look at the numbers.

Here are the Fighting Sioux goalie stats after six games, one could make the argument that the Fighting Sioux record is a mediocre 3-2-1 for team that is this talented. On the flip side of that argument, UND has gone 3-2-1 on the road and has yet to play any home games. The defensive and goaltending numbers are frightening so far and the Fighting Sioux have to get better if they are going to do anything in the up coming season and post season. The poor goaltending numbers are also a direct reflection of the team defense in front of them. UND which traditionally has been know for its strong defense in the past, has been giving up turnovers at crucial times in the games.

Aaron Dell, G, So, 2-2-0, 2.88 GAA, .883 Save Percentage
Brad Eidsness, G, Jr, 1-0-1, GAA 4.46., Save Percentage .762
