Too bad Jake had to be the whipping boy for Dean's frustrations. What about the lackadaisical, boneheaded plays by some of the defensemen & forwards? Like someone asked earlier, what the bejeesus is up with Massen? A talented, NHL-drafted power forward who gives all indications of farting away his talent & not giving 100% while with the Sioux. If he's a liability out there on the ice & just going through the motions, why the hell play him at all? The same holds true of other players: if they don't have it in their hearts to give it nothing but their best efforts night in & night out, either bench them or jerk their scholarships. Having dead weight, weak links & uninspired guys on the team does nothing for morale (negative attitudes are contagious) & will hurt us in the long run. I talk about Massen because he's been in the longest funk of them all--something's up with the guy & it would be nice if we could resolve whatever issue it is--for his sake because he has a lot of potential & for the sake of the team.
