I'll be interested to see where Mitch fits this weekend...he was a healthy scratch multiple games to Dmen playing forward then goes to a top 6 guy. If Mark plays wing I'd like see him w Chyzyk with Luke at center. This means Parks goes 3rd line possibly with Gaarder and Murphy or Mitch? Patty Rodwell and someone on 4th line.

Agree. And like you referenced this was a forced resignation... plain and simple. I also agree the sooner the facts come out the better...for all involved including Hardee.

Disappointing to say the least. Faison was swift in his action so give him credit. At least we have hock...

Agree. Would be surprised if a decision went thru that weekend.

If you are referring to Bohl...you are correct. As I have mentioned prior, I have gotten to visit with him a little bit on a number of occasions. Very good guy and I would take him at UND in a heartbeat too...hypothetically.

Pflugrad in a nut shell was the fall guy along with the AD in that "rape" ordeal from what I have heard. My good buddy who lives in Missoula and is a Griz fan said those 2 were the fall guys in a rush to judgement but under the alleged circumstances I can see how someone had to go. Ironic how the accussed was found not guilty and is currently playing for the Griz but a couple trolls already think Pflugrad would come with baggage. I'm not Faison but he should come near the top of the list regardless of who else applies.

I like him as a potential hire.

The fact that this incident, however it shakes out, happened with his own players in the vehicle with him is what is really disappointing.

We will have to agree to disagree..."upside" IMO goes out the window when you are in the month of December in your Jr. season.

Saturday vs BU was one game...his total body of work as a college hockey player suggests otherwise. He is servicable as a role player at best. I was at both games this weekend and he did "little" and he wasn't noticable all weekend.

You both are correct...texted 2 of my good SU buddies in Fargo last night about these similar situations and basically got the incidents were apples to oranges from each one.

I have no clue what happened here but in general if one has been up and out all night until 5 am...rarely does anything good occur. Again I don't no any details but if Hardee pulled an all nighter doing whatever I don't like where this potenially could go. And for SU fans to call him out as arrogant when they have a coach there named Saul is hypocritical IMO.

Goodness...

Classic!

Parks, OD, Mitch really give you very little. Mark is hurt. Rocco and Drake are our best forwards and Drake has been very quiet lately. Chyzyk, Pattyn and Gaarder are all basically the same. The Fr. forwards have done very little although I like Luke a lot. St. Clair is out and Rodwell is a Sr. 4th liner. There is no Frattin/Malone or Kristo/Knight players on this roster. As a collective group they are decent players but there just isn't enough offensive punch to string together a hot streak especially at the pace they are allowing goals IMO.

I saw you do that...nicely played!

We are in 110 a few rows higher. I saw him...how did I miss you?

I had mine on for awhile until I got the head sweats. I saw you off in distance in your linked sausage trench coat...

After watching both games this weekend at the Ralph my early week prediction...split. I know I'm going out on a limb here so breathe deep everyone.

Agree... I live in Fargo and there is definately some envy of UND for some reason...minus the FB programs which I totally get. And I have never been over on BV and never will. Why? Cause I don't give a _____ bout them enough to waste my time there.

What is average for Sumner? From what I've seen of him, which is not a large sample size, he is not very good. He will be this team's undoing at some point in the playoffs.

I hate to agree but I'm with you. This team generates nothing offensively with its dump and chase. St L knew exactly what was coming especially on the PP. Penalties... where do you start? Was Tambo's the right call...no but why even put yourself in that position...especially on the PP. This team from Hak on down has to change its mindset and philosophy. Get out shot 13-2 in the 3rd as you are basically playing not to lose is a recipe for a L every time you have a lead in the 3rd. At this point defensively Stecher and LaDue's minutes need to go up. Schmaltz goes thru the motions and Simpson...well one of his worst weekends at UND in 4 years. Just tough to watch even though a win is a win. IMO the offensive and defensive schemes nowhere match the players skill sets and it is evident when you watch game in and game out. How many draft picks on the roster?? More any other team in the nation. There is some talent and skill but the system(s) stifle that.

And this coming from you at a school that has a coach named Saul...

This...^^^^^^^. Whatever good play there was in the first 2 periods with sucked away in the 3rd. Just can't make any game easy

Well...
