Dogs Shut Down (and out) Bemidji State

Below is my own view on the game today...

UMD outshot Bemidji State by a HUGE margin of 51-17 (had 3 times as many shots for those math deficient ;).)

Laura Fridfinnson, Saara Tuominen, and Karine Demeule (Demeule scored TWICE, including the first of the game, and game winner) all scored their 3rd goals of the season .. IN as many games. Jaime Rasmussen picked up 2 assists as well.

Bemidji really never looked like they were in this game.. UMD skated circles around them all night.

Erin Olson definitely has found her game in this her junior season. She hasn't scored yet but the way she's come out this season, in great hockey shape and flying around the ice.. she has a chance for a good handfull of goals. (hasn't scored since her first career goal, October 14, 2005 against St. Cloud at the DECC) Just as important as scoring, is she's winning faceoffs in her own zone when she's on the ice taking them.

With all of the injuries among forwards, another freshman, Libby Guzzo even spent a good deal of time on the ice, after only playing a few shifts in St. Cloud.

Tomorrow afternoon (or after tomorrow's game 2) I'll post the News Tribune story and link.
