Going from men's hockey coach to women's hockey coach would be equivalent to trading in your Cadillac for a Hyundai. Yes, they both are cars, but one of them provides a much higher level of enjoyment/entertainment.
I agree. We need someone who KNOWS WOMENS hockey, we don't have time for someone to catchup on all of the nations recruiting,
and figure out how women are different.
I hate to say it but it will be hard to find someone who wants this program with the right expirence, who is GREAT.
-
Hopefully they can get a point or two tomorrow. Good luck, ladies.
the last four games have been amazing.....
the practices have been productive and their finally improving.
This weekend is ours.
All we need is an amazing coach for next year!
-
I have to say that the Sioux have made some improvements and seem in better shape.
The minnesota game was better.
I thaught that there were offensive improvements but I just hope
they can pull off one league win.
-
TRUE
I do how ever believe that he did not know the full scale of things and he did make Quite a big move.
Hard to believe but if Rivard ACTUALLY was suprised ( as she said) then he was not far behind
-
SAD LOSS! any one get to see it?
-
I think the poor guy was probably brought here under false pretenses! He figured he got an awesome job and could stay in hockey after being fired from his last job and now he realized that Rivard was almost fired before he came and he moved across the nation to be fired in less than a year!
No wonder he doesn
-
If I am not mistaken, Minnesota had a pretty good head start on us.
THANKS FOR YOUR SYMPATHY
I really do not think UND is not that far behind. They just need direction, the right training and strong leadership. They really do have
their moments, I do not blame the girls at all i have seen promise, but they are young and need
lots of direction. Miller needs to get with the program if he wants to stay around for next season. All leagues are leveling out, and
we could be there in two seasons if we get the right ingredients, girls hockey timing is prime. I was really hoping the Lameroux (sp) twins would want to join us.
The new goalie?

OOOO MY!!!!!
So much has happened.
I was gone, my father passed away for anyone who cares
Shantel is finally gone!!!!! sad to see it happen around the holidays but, illogical
That she said she was surprised
Must be more lost than I thought.
Hard change for the girls they really need a leader now hope Miller can help them make some big changes
Anyone see the game?
I missed it been really busy.
How was the game, has anything been different?
-
They're still IN the WCHA.
We have some solid talent, it just is not developing, and we can only get players
who will agree to play here.
you can see that the girls are smart on the ice, the team is just not confidant in the
small plays and do not seem well prepared.
-
I though both teams were sloppy!
the start looked so hopeful then it all went to crap.
Not to mention almost all goals were PPG's
it looked like both teams needed to go back to gradeschool.
Coaching totally lacking.
Same old story, better ending
GO GIRLS! THIS WEEKEND WE HAVE IT WRAPPED UP.
KEEP UP THE SCORING
-
-
FINALLY!
Our girls show a T for the records!
Way to go girls.
-
BY THE SOUNDS OF IT WE SHOULD HIRE THIS SO CALLED "GREENE" THEY SOUND LIKE THEY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT
I will go out on a limb and predict more shots on goal for the Sioux against Maine. Time to go after some Black Bear!
FIRST!
that is just stupid!
I don't claim to be any type of coach, but then again neigther should RIVARD! Hell Ill take the joB!
Second we can win the game against maine, finally there is a team with a worse record then ours.
-
You don't think a coach has anything to do with recruiting? The entire recruiting process revolves around the coach. The coach is the one out there traveling the country representing the university when talking to potential recruits. No matter what sport you are talking about, how well the recruiting goes says alot about your coach.
I understand your point about recruiting against harvard, but that really doesn't have anything to do with the discussion about our coach's ability to find a way to win some games, or even score a few points.
Second, I'm not even sure that recruiting is what the actual problem seems to be here. We have gotten in some girls that can definately play hockey. Our problem seems to be keeping anyone here for more than 2 years and creating some team chemistry. And when all of these girls quit playing after a year or 2, it's not because they are going to play in the NHL. So obviously something is chasing them away and it seems to be pretty common knowledge what it is.
THANK YOU
My daughter also told me that our only goal aginst Wisconsin was actually a goal knocked in by the
one of the WIS defense women
-
I don't think it should be anything personal against Shantel, it just boils down to the stats-obviously the team can't produce while she is leading the team. Maybe things will change in the next few weeks......right now it's not looking too good.
I know enough to get personal
giver her the boot
The sad truth is that even if things do change she is just not a head coach.
I believe there is enough talent on the team to overcome her.
Our ability to get good recruits is so limited with her, I have talked to more parents at tournaments
who's kids will not even consider this school while she is here. Sadly I agree with them.
If she sticks around longer we will have to yet one more year we will have to suffer because we are
missing out on top recruits.
I have even heard that recruits have lactually laughed when our school contacted them.
There is no reason we don't alreay have some olympians here.
We are so much better than that.

"UND need to start playing the 3rd period in the 1st. Is it freshman jitters contributing to the slow starts? They certainly seem to be playing much better by the 3rd.
They need to play with that intensity for 60 minutes.
"
yep you have to worry about freshman jitters when you team is 66% freshman!
HUH, I wonder how we can keep kids around
?
?Should I call the captain obvious or do you want to.
-
Well UND did not land a Team Canada coach and her connections. Besides Cornell did and how good are they?
Only coaches that have a clue keep their connections!
and Cornell dosent have our history and rink!
THis game was a sad display of girls with talent who are not being taught how to use
it and will probably quit again BY next year..
WE ARE WORKING WITH FULL SCHOLARSHIPS!
BUT EVEN IF WE WERN'T THAT IS NO EXCUSE FOR WHAT I SAW YESTERDAY AND TODAY!
-
I HAVE NEVER READ A BIGGER LOAD OF CRAP IN MY LIFE!!!!
-
Watched the Mavericks last weekend. This is the quickest MSU team that has ever taken the ice. Also a very solid tender in Kehler. Going to be a real challenge for the Sioux.
A minor point, I am familiar with the UMD program and history. Enough to say that historically, they don't really concentrate their recruiting efforts on the top US talent.
I really believe that MSU should be our easiest team to beat in our league.
ST. Cloud is having some problems getting off but the new coaching should be a boost.
Bemidji has shown a good turn around so far with their new coach.
MSU is our shot this year to get some league wins!
-
UMD is a women's hockey dynasty. They won the first three NCAA Championships in 2001, 2002, and 2003. That helps tremendously when you are recruiting the best players in the US and Canada to come to your school.
That being said, your Fighting Sioux beat them in the final meeting between the two school last year. Now let's move onto the Mankato game........
Go Sioux!
Rivard was out of town all week before those games.
the assistants ran all the practices that whole week
the girls wanted to win for them.
it was awesome
We just can't get the big players because of rivard
I guess she ran some Lake Placid camp and I guess the bigest joke there
was her practices and coaching.
big suprise there
-
If the UND MEN'S hockey team faced an opponent who had the Olympic silver-medalist goaltender - as the backup goalie! - they would have trouble scoring too.
I do hope to see this year's Sioux women be competitive vs teams like Mankato.
You would be right if we hadn't been embarrassingly out shot by all the real teams we have played.
I would say our goal tending was the only thing kicking some butt!
-
It sounded very clear to me that goal tending is what saved the sioux.
Any comments from people who made it to the game.
-
Is That you Mr rivard?
The Woosters have left because of RIVARD!
If you dont believe me call them.
They have called the GF paper requesting that they publish the true story
about why they left.
It has not been done, as you know.
If you really do not know what is going on dont
tell lies to the rest of us!
Thanks
sorry that was a little intense!
-
I realize being positve is nice and all,
BUT,
Rivard already has screwed things up with her micromanaging mencia.
She must have never had a good head coach to work under.
When she runs a practice it is alway bad, fustrating, and unorganized.
her speaches are a joke, she couldn't motivate a rock to roll down hill.
and The new assistants just are not there in the program yet to really stop her.
not to metion the new assistant has no expirence except for playing.
The New top scorers (the ones who have not yet quit) are not far away from quiting if this is not
her last season. The new members are talented but already fustrated with her and her lack of leadership,
and her inability to see what is going on in her enviroment.
No matter how the team does this season, if BUning does not get rid of her
God help all sioux fans.
These Women deserve better!

NOW IT COULD BE JUST ME!
But does anyone else find it offensive that these people, who know nothing about women
