There is only one thing that can heal this thread. A little Pitino wisdom... "All the negativity in this town sucks..." "Jordan Parise Larry Bird is not walking through that door, fans. Matt Smaby Kevin McHale is not walking through that door, and Drew Stafford, Rastislav Spirko, & Travis Zajac are Robert Parish is not walking through that door. And if you expect them to walk through that door, they're going to be gray and old. What we are is young, exciting, hard-working, and we're going to improve. People don't realize that, and as soon as they realize those five three guys are not coming through that door, the better this town will be for all of us because there are young guys in that (locker) room playing their asses off."

Good luck, Hunter! I wish these times had been better for the Sioux. I hope you have a GREAT time with Vernon and end up at UND again. What is really too bad is that he might have seen more playing time over the next 3 series.

Who me?

I do agree with this, however that does not mean that they will stay below. I think Chay has been the one big positive (on offense at least). I do think that we will get more out of Forney, Vandevelde, and Grieco in the future. Oh yeah, 2007 looks like a great class on paper...

One thing that I think is hurting is that Forney should have been this years Toews / Oshie. He has that kind of talent. Whether by injuries or other we have gotten nothing from him.

Am I correct in assuming that the Sioux are one of the if not the youngest team in the nation?

In fairness it's INCH , but I don't ever remember this happening.

My wife thinks that this means nothing...

Nope, he is going to CC.

I think High School Hockey would be a good section for both MN and ND.

I don't think the "Jesus Campers" like you to use Satan anymore...

I want to be clear that there is a difference between being a bad coach and blowing up a program. This is far overdue.

I was rolling my eyes when I saw this thread. I certainly didn't expect this. If true, best wishes to Phil and his family.

This really made the AD look like a joke. This was fra overdue. My only regret is that the coach will be staying on.

Dam you and yur English Langage...

Are you stocking me?

Both good coaches, but at this point Haktstol 0, Blais 2

Well, all of us except for UND educators...

It hurt... Real bad... I wouldn't want to be Tech next week...

Happy to have Finley...

That's what having a goaltender will do... Does DeBus have any eligability left?

Bucky is making me reconsider my position as a proud liberal...

Stupid thread...

With the number of periods the Sioux have failed to show up, and the number of stupid mistakes I think so letters need to be changed. Taking periods off is not what UND hockey should be known for.

Maybe I am out of line here, but I thought the Sioux dominated 3/4s of that game. Again what is up with the 2nd period? For the number of shots on goal the sioux should have won. Three thing killed the Sioux: 1) Bad goaltending - I just don't get Phil, I though Parise often played good enough to win 1-0 or 11-10. Phil seems to find away to lose. The kicker is his fundamentals are rock solid. All 4 goals he was in perfect position. The one time he was out of position Wisconsin got a post. Unfortuantely despite being in position 3 of the 4 goals went through him. And he was NOT screened on the first goal. 2) Chay Genoway killed us - You are a defender now... He skated the puck into traffic in the offensive end and FUNNY there is a break the other way. He also tried to skate it out of the zone a few times and lost it. Yes he scored a goal, that does not make his performance acceptable. 3) Watkins - Why didn't you look up and pass? Easy goal against a tough team lost, because Watkins played puck hog (though he is fun to watch). Our D looked very solid on the offensive end, it was fun to watch. Duncan is like a pinball out there. Toews, if your going to miss the net by that much, pass it off. UND hockey hits the net with seconds left, don't screw it up. Lee / Genoway / Jones if your on the ice you skate, they aren't that much faster than you. Adam just sucks, he isn't anti Sioux or pro Badger, he just sucks and should have been fired long ago (you know before someone is seriously hurt ). Genoway had his legs pulled out in the open, and then was interfered with leading to goals 3, 4. But the Sioux have to play a full game, and they didn't. The last Sioux penalty that made a 5x3, I seriously have no idea what was called? Sioux kill WI tonight. Finley "accidentally" rips Adam's head from his body and then uses it for Turkey bowling. All the WCHA rejoices.
