Shaw asap and get someone recruits can believe in.
If Brad replaces Shaw I’m back in his camp, it shows he has the backbone to put the program above loyalty to an assistant.

24 years as strength and conditioning coach. It may be time to bring in some new blood, things have changed dramatically in strength, conditioning, and nutrition; sometimes old dogs refuse to get outside their comfort zone.

Yuck. I can't believe how inept the powerplay is.
It’s not a power play. Not sure what it is but I’m sure it’s not a power play

Does Brad have the stones to make this staff accountable. Someone needs to go.

I get what you are saying, Joe Morgan once said ‘you can’t win a championship at any sport without having at least one player who is best in the nation at his position’. I’ve found that to be mostly true.
But I don’t think the coaching is defensible regarding the panic play. It’s mostly just 5 guys without a plan

That's this year in a nutshell, dominate play and give up the only goal.
Problem is we can outskate them all game and all season but the worse than anemic PP is killing us.

North Dakota: 1 goal on 31 shots.
Another hot goalie night.

Seems we are one pass short, instead we shoot at numbers

This is a reason we should have an edge recruiting Minnesota

From Brad Schlossman's Monday morning blog:
UND coach Brad Berry on scratching Jacob Bernard-Docker for the series finale: “You know what, it was one of those things where we watch a lot from the bench and we scrutinize a lot of video. We want to set players up for a chance at success. Jacob is a young man that cares a lot. He has a bright future ahead of him. But it’s one of those things we do here at North Dakota where we pull the layers back and we try to do what’s best for the team and also for the individual. It was just a night he wanted to watch a little bit from the stands and he’ll be back in the lineup on Friday again.”
Good enough

Berry: "For a team playing for their lives, there was no urgency."
"Didn't respect opponent. Easy to get up for the UMD's and SCSUs."
"Urgency didn't come til CC was ahead." "Our PK or PP surely wasn't good."
"Thome gave us a chance to win the game."
"Unfortunately nobody to put in the lineup if taking people out of the lineup for players taking undisciplined penalties, but this is a tryout for the rest of this year and next year."
Are you kidding or did he really say this? It’s really disappointing because I’ve tried to be in BB’s corner. If there is no sense of urgency and a lacking of respect for the opponent that is 100% square on the coach’s shoulders. This is supposedly big time college hockey. Millions of dollars are being spent by fans, boosters, and taxpayers. If Brad and the staff don’t take this seriously then why should fans or anyone else.

There is something not right about Gardner and all the penalties—he surely realizes it’s out of control and hurting the team, and also something not right about coach’s inability to do deal with it.

Two OT wins vs CC at home.
"Not your grandfather's CC."
I have a hard time seeing anything other than a split here.
UND likes to win on Fridays.
It seems more like we are out of gas on Saturdays. We’ve won 5 times on Saturday this year not counting exhibitions and single game series with Minny.

This cracks me up...the guy's a flipping Senior Captain and he still hasn't figured out that stupid penalties hurt the team...
Paraphrasing from Brad Berry in today's Heraldo: "If there's one thing with Rhett that we have to keep working on, it's the discipline side," Berry said... Sometimes, he gets caught up in the game. That's where I think some composure has to come in."
Hard to believe a head coach can’t control his team. I understand things happen in hockey game but this is a pattern.

“Discipline” I believe was the key word from Brad. I’ll give it to our boys, they played hard and disciplined. Minimal mistakes or turnovers and they blocked shots. Heads were in the game.
Hopefully we have the jam to do it twice.

Always the optimist but my faith is running thin that we can get the puck up the ice on the PP. I’m out of ideas and down to wearing one sock inside out and switching chairs in the man cave.

We cant afford to slide at all... if we are being brutally honest, college's across the country (Western Michigan) and more, are starting to invest more in their hockey programs. Better gear, facilities, ETC. We sell facilities, a chance at a ring, and NHL-like experiences. What happens when we lose "ring chasing" and others get more high-tech facilities. OK, yeah its extreme but its a potential reality. A couple bad seasons and a couple bad classes and now everyone is playing at the U of M.. gross.
This is true. We can’t afford another down yr with the way the landscape is changing regarding $ being spent on programs. I think everything needs a fresh look to see what we can be doing better from recruiting, conditioning, coaching, marketing, operations to the smallest detail. We are either in this to be a giant or fall to the wayside.

Hennessy: "finally got some puck luck." - win or lose the guy seems to love his puck luck talk.
We got a lot luckier when we shot to where we were aiming. There were a couple of highlight reels tonight .

Teams with a low shooting % are often playing 5-on-5 mostly high in the zone.
Unless you are #87 or #8 it’s as important where the assist is coming from as where the shot is taken. NHL charts consistently show a high correlation between shooting %, and assists from behind or parallel to the goal. One successful pass behind the net before the assist pushes the shooting % even higher. I guess we all know this, but I don’t know what our charts say about where the passes are coming from.
Sucks to be a defenseman facing the glass, or a goalie looking over his shoulder while shooters cycle in front of the net.

Something happened last week and we grew up a little. This will be an interesting game. If we win tonight we will win Saturday

Is Berry close friends with his staff , or is staff hiring a pure meritocracy? Wondering about nepotism and how he would handle things at the end of the season if he deemed a shake-up as positive for the program.
Some great coaches have gone down with the ship rather than put their friends on the market.

And then, if it had to be a hawk, why the modifier "fighting"? Hawks don't fight, in real life hawks are often chased and harassed by little birds. They try to get away.
Well, they get chased because they ate their babies, so that’s kind of badass.

We have to fly in for games so it’s 3 years since we’ve been to the Ralph, but our pro team wonders why the crowd isn’t more involved. Every time play stops they blast insanely loud piped music until play resumes, squelching every attempt the crowd makes to spontaneously get involved.
It’s like the people in charge have no idea what a fun arena looks like and think the fans are too stupid to figure it out on their own. You can’t constantly pipe in fun, it’s exhausting. The band is way more effective.
I was at UND 78-82 and I’m good at getting a section rocking, but with the electronic wall of sound all you can do is surrender and sit on your hands or cover your ears.
