disparity in skill and speed between us and BIG the last 5 games is so disappointing. Tonight was the most embarrassing. We are so easy to defend. Just pressure us and we will turn the puck over. Losing puck battles at alarming rate as well. When’s the last time we ever gave up two short-handed goals.
Nice way to spin a headline on the UND.com page

"Back and forth game goes in favor of home Spartans." Sheesh. The game was back and forth for a little over a period, sure, but I think the winning team scoring 5 straight, unanswered goals hardly warrants a "back and forth" in the headline.

Jackson's teams don't give up 8 goals very often. Just 5 times in his first 24 seasons as an NCAA coach (through the 2022/23 season). In fact his 2nd title team at Lake State once pitched 5 straight shutouts (allowing just one goal over 7 games). But they've managed to allow 8 goals two times in the last 33 games. It's really difficult to see his tenure at Notre Dame winding down like it is, but it sure looks like we're not going to see a special ending to it.
