I think you mean Haks first season. Adam has been around for a while.

Hak's first year is when Paukovich almost killed Bina and got a two minute penalty for it. Was it before or after that?

I don't know what you could tell your defenseman in that situation? Guy is coming into the zone, with the puck, head down. Trouba didn't raise his elbow to hit the guy, didn't jump, just made a good physical hockey hit. Its a good thing Trouba isn't shorter or he could have done a lot more damage with his shoulder to the players head. I guess that is contact to the head, but you're telling me that from now on you can't hit a player with his head down?

Very good question. I'm hopeful that he stays in an office. Locked up on Friday and Saturday nights.

Better team won on Saturday night. Doesn't make up for Adam not having a clue for either side. He did not cost UND the game, no way no how. But its frustrating as hell when everyone and their dog knows whats coming with him, and he seems to outdo himself every time. He could start his tenure as head of officials in the new league by putting together video clips of his screw ups as a learning device for new officials.

I'm predicting a Tim Hennessy rant here in the third period....its brewing....

I love Hak to death, but he's got to keep his cool given the situation. You'll have plenty of time at the end of the game or in the third period to let that clutz know how bad of an official he is. Lots of ice 4-3.......yikes.

This game could go a couple different ways here in the third. I'm guessing either: A) SCSU scores on the powerplay and goes on to bury UND with a ton of penalties and Hakstol getting tossed. B) UND kills the penalty and rallies and wins the game.

Not watching the game. Legit penalty on Kristo?

EXACTLY. Taking dives is garbage. There is too much tradition for that crap. Get hit, get up. Robbie Bina set the bar as to when a player should lay down after getting hit from behind.

Okay....a powerplay for UND. Time to get some momentum back. GOAL!!!!!!!!! Boo ya!

Five minute majors are such an energy sucker. They just mess everything up. You've got to go with an odd number of d men, which means guys not used to playing with other guys, and your forward killers need to be juggled......blah.....they just screw things up. Need the period break to get some organization back.

And that official who was five feet away from that hit is the head of officials in the new league.

Penalty, you bet. But if the play last night isn't a major then the play tonight isn't a major. How UND ALWAYS....and I mean ALWAYS ends up on the lesser end of these calls is besides me. I may sound like a homer fan, but its crap.

Clarke has to be back in the net tonight for UND. Gothberg is young, and I think Brad Eidsness said it best last weekend with the whole "not the worst thing to sit back and watch right away" comment.

Freshman line with a great chance. 8 minutes left.

About ten minutes left in the game 2-0. UND.

Fourth line on the ice now with Forbort and Schmaltz.

Both goaltenders playing well.

Clark Saunders......Whooda thought. Big save.

Yuck.....early penalty. Big kill here.

Next goal is big here. If UND can get it they could put this one away.

Huge loss for SCSU not having Hanowski in the lineup. Still very tough at home. I'll stick with the series split.

Blasphemy. Its hostile and abusive. They'd better make them wear uniforms that don't say Sioux on them, or the Alerus center may collapse.

The brother of former SIOUX national champion Tom Philion coaches Hazen......I'm sure they'll still all be cheering for the Sioux.
