Offense sputters again in loss to N. Dakota
OXFORD, Ohio -- Miami finally broke through on the scoresheet midway through the third period, but unfortunately for the RedHawks, that goal came after North Dakota had netted four of its own.

Youth keying RedHawks’ upswing
The evidence of Miami’s progress is in the win column. In 2021-22, the RedHawks won just seven games. This season, MU reached that victory total by the end of the calendar year. And that’s largely against a much-tougher non-conference slate consisting of UMass Lowell, significantly-improved Michigan State and Ferris State teams, plus Canisius. Miami played … Continue reading Youth keying RedHawks’ upswing
Miami ends ’22 with last-second loss

Home woes continue as Miami falls to MSU

Goal barrage lifts Miami past Canisius
BUFFALO, N.Y. – At the end of the first period, it appeared Miami’s 6-0 all-time record vs. Canisius may be in jeopardy. But the RedHawks erased a 1-0 deficit by running off five straight goals in a 27-minute span and held on for a 5-3 win over the Golden Griffins in their first-ever game at … Continue reading Goal barrage lifts Miami past Canisius
Incoming class analysis: Part II
It seems counterintuitive that Miami's most geographically diverse incoming class in recent decades is seeming to bond quicker than most. But with four of the incoming freshmen coming from the same USHL squad and others having ties to returning players, the 2022-23 RedHawks already appear to have the jelling thing covered despite not having played … Continue reading Incoming class analysis: Part II
Bergeron: Miami ‘not a 7-win program’
The hockey gods appeared to conspire against Miami from opening weekend last season. After battling bus issues on the way to Ferris State and winning Game 1, the RedHawks lost on an exceedingly-rare 3-on-4 overtime goal to a Bulldogs team that had not beaten a Division I opponent in 33 previous attempts, a span of … Continue reading Bergeron: Miami ‘not a 7-win program’
