Can they do it? Sure. Will they? Not likely, in my estimation. While the Spuds are playing better than they did for about a 9-game stretch earlier this season, they still have a lot of room for improvement.HShockeywatcher wrote:Can the Spuds do it?
Although I haven't seen Jefferson play this year, I have to believe they have a very good team, just based on their 19-0 record. But after comparing schedules, I think the Spuds' schedule looks to be tougher. So we'll just see.

The only way Moorhead is gonna leave BIG with a W is if they completely outhustle and out hit the Jags. But, that is how the Jags win their games so I just dont see it. I'm guessing it will be close but the Jags haven't lost a game on BIG 1 in quite some time and I don't see it happening on Saturday unless the Jags are too focused on thier game vs EP coming up....

I've always felt that the most dangerous games for good teams are either the ones immediately after a big win, or immediately before a major matchup. This game falls into the second category for Jefferson, and if they overlook Moorhead, they could easily watch the perfect record to disappear.
It's been hard to get a read on the Spuds since they're so streaky. They seem to be on the upswing now, though, so Jefferson had better take note.

I don't think you can really bet against Jefferson's record, but it is pretty obvious they play an easier schedule than most as well. I expect it to be close, but Moorhead won't be able to pull it off imo.
However, if Moorhead comes out flying and catches Jefferson off guard, anything can happen. I know Moorhead has a great team in there somewhere.

Even in a down year, teams don't just overlook a team like Moorhead. I can't see the Jags doing it.karl(east) wrote:I've always felt that the most dangerous games for good teams are either the ones immediately after a big win, or immediately before a major matchup.

If Jefferson is smart, they will take note of that and avoid the mistakes of the Cougars.

Score Update
I just heard the score is 2-1 after the 1st period for Jefferson, but I don't know what the shots were. Also, it sounds like this isn't being broadcast on myfoxhockey.com after all. But for those in the Fargo-Moorhead area, you can listen to it on 1660 AM radio.

Another Update.....
I don't have a radio with me, but I am getting regular updates from someone who is listening to the game. The Spuds scored 2 goals during a 5-on-3 power play in the 2nd period and now lead 3-2. Both goals were scored by Trent Johnson.

Update....
After 2 periods, it's 3-3. Jefferson scored on a 5-on-3 power play. Also, the Spuds had a goal waved off with about 8 seconds left in the period when one of the Jags (intentionally?) knocked the net off. Sounds like the Jags might be getting nervous about that perfect record....
