Here’s something that sticks out for me. From November
15, 2013, UND has a 10-4-2 record. During the 16 games UND averaged 2.81 goals
per game. Also, UND gave up 2.56 goals against per game. Breaking it down
further, during the last 11 games, UND compiled a (9-1-1) record. During that
time, UND scored an average of 2.90 goals per game and gave up 2.00 goals
against per game.
Power penalty-kill struggles
Here’s something that I would be concerned about. Going into the first series against the Mavericks, UND had killed 32-of-33 penalties. That was tops in the nation. Since that time, UND’s penalty-kill has struggled and ranks 52nd nationally going percent (65-for-86) at 75.6 percent. During those 17 games, UND has allowed two or more power-play goals in seven- of-17 games. During those 17 games, UND has a 11-4-2 record. (UNDSID)
Power-play not much better
UND’s power play has also struggled in recent weeks, having gone 3 for 28 (10.7%) over the last seven games. UND has been held without a power-play goal in four of its last five games. One exception, on January 24, 2014, against DU, UND went 2-for-4. (UND SID)
