UND1983

Clarkson = North Dakota Bowling Green = North Dakota Boston College = North Dakota Got it.

Get to Frozen Four. Then hope to get lucky and hang #8.

Lot of passion in this thread. Both sides. Lotsa good info as well.

The fans (that blindly support Hak). Not all fans. Read again.

I think more of the angst is directed at the passiveness of the fans and wanting more people to be alarmed by the failures. Hak is just the one who is the subject.

Not me. I want another frozie.

You got me confused with somebody else, never said a word about recruiting. But I know that Terry did fire him because the program wasn't winning.

Regular season wins vs. Post season failures. Gino and Blais both won a ton of regular season games, too. Gino - 392-248-24 (61%) - and that with his last 3 seasons being terrible. Blais - 262-115-33 (73%) I would say they won some regular season games. No?

Sprinkles just add so much. Great invention.

Please explain. And make sure to throw in the national championship part of the equation when doing it.

Dean and Gino: Hak:

You know why he doesn't get full and unquestioned credit for his regular season wins vs. post season failures at North Dakota? Because every coach before him did the exact same thing as far as wins go. Its been 40 years since a coach really struggled at UND.

A former player rushes to his coaches defense and that means it's going to happen right? Of course he is going to defend him.

I realize you are trying to prove a point but that is the stupidest thing anyone has ever said at anytime. Reel it back in a bit, chief.

Hak should hang out at Gamble Hall more to learn how to take care of business.

What? Didn't know the two were tied together. This is a fan message board. The hockey team can do whatever they want and use whatever slogans they want for motivation. I, and many others, are confused as to how easily accepting the fans are of season ending losses now. There was no reason UND should not have beaten BU. They had just as good of team coming in but somehow, some way, they lose again to a similarily skilled team. I have a theory as to why and it has to do with the student fan base that becomes 'alumni'. The past 10 graduating classes at UND haven't seen a championship, only regular season wins. Winning Penrose championships seem pretty cool.

You are admitting you have?

You know the bar has been lowered by the fan base when hours after another season ending loss you hear "Can't wait til next year!!". UND is quickly becoming 'paper tigers'.

It was the end of the game. They werent giving out a 5 for that. Figure it out.

How many years are they going to keep trying to "finish" their business? Hopefully they are not using that line in the locker room. It doesnt work.

I dont know why you guys gave up on them. BOOM!!

BOOM!!!

Did somebody spray Pam on our sticks? They keep whiffing and losing the puck.

Thank you!

That's what they want you to think. The future is bright!!!
