I didn't research. I pulled those 7 out of memory, meaning that there are more.

I hate to say it, but I have seen nothing that inspires confidence. UND loses tonight.

Patrick Eaves, Brooks Orpik, Brian Gionta, Stephen Gionta, Nathan Gerbe, Cory Schneider, Chris Kreider, BC has produced about the same number of NHLers...BC ALSO produced 3 NCAA titles

WHy not, I did : )

So, you could shake it up a bit tonight: Knight with Mark Mac and Kristo St Clair with Grimaldi and Caggiula Rowney with Parks and Gaarder Pattyn with Rodwell and Chyzyk

The team that lost in the Frozen Four with Stafford, Zajac, Oshie, and Toews was the biggest downer for me. The Frattin team that lost to Michigan in the Frozen Four was a close 2nd. The Parise team that lost to DU in the Regional was also right up there. ONE of those 3 teams should've taken home the national title. No excuses. THe high pay that comes from a figurehead position (VP in a company, head coach, etc) is nothing more than a risk-premium. You get paid a lot, because you can be fired tomorrow. Criticism of the coaching staff is warranted, not because we lost, and not because we had a flat game, but because of the inconsistency we have seen this year.

I read the post you are responding to as sarcasm...

Parks produced- when on the line with Knight and Kristo

Coaching is about leading and motivating more than it is about conditioning, systems, and plays. You gotta get the guys playing together.

Yup, no fire, no passion...In an embarrassing display last night, Pattyn should've been looking for an excuse to go bananas on somebody.

I was thinking Don Cherry with John Hill as associate.

I could pick them out- they were both interviewed on TV for the Sioux Gopher series last weekend. You need to balance four year guys with blue chip talent- no doubt

Agree on Jensen and Prochno. Also, Leblanc and Hanowski really have become good players. Playing single A MInn HS, they did fall off a lot of school's radars. Good for them for working for it and becoming top tier scorers in the NCAA. Interesting to hear Hanowski get interviewed. Their gameplan was to play defense first and shut down time and space for Kristo and Knight. They score a fluke to go up 1-0, with that game plan, executed well, against a UND team playing soft...good plan and good win. IF SCSU and Motzko can do this to UND, Eaves and Blaiser are going to kill us.

I actually quit watching at the second intermission. Brutal.

Now that Eades is gone, none of our "true"coaching staff have won a national title as player or coach (I know Goerhing has one, but is he even paid?)...this is highly unusual for a program of our caliber. Go around the horn... Minnesota check Omaha check SCSU check Denver check UMD check Wisconsin check Winning is an attitude and a swagger. No rings in the locker room with the exception of the 30 year old goalie coach is not cool

Yup- Goal 1: Zane not positionally sound. Low probability shot goes in. Goal 2: Panzo loses an edge, too slow to get back into position. Hanowski alone in front. Yzerman19 quits watching the train wreck.

The first one. Bad angle, 30 feet out.

I also thought Rowney would have a great year...disappointment so far. O'Donnell- colossal disappointment. Biggest disappointment is in the D corps though... This team relies on the individual skills of Knight, Kristo and Grimaldi way too much

So we've seen the additions of Mitch Mac and Parks into the regular lineup and the removal of O'Donnell and Gaarder...Chyzyk hasn't played in months...Zane has a GAA over 3 and a save percentage under .900 This team is seeking an identity and doesn't have one.

I am embarrassed by this team's performance last night. I came out early and liked how they moved the puck in the first. They didn't get quality shots, but they were moving it around. Then the second period came. I quit watching at the intermission. Embarrassing. I agree with the statements regarding the coaching staff. What is going on? As for the locker room...something must be going on in there.

On TV we looked like we are moving the puck pretty well...better than I've seen them move the puck since Holy Cross

Puck movement and forecheck > poor quality shots UND came out moving the puck and establishing the forecheck. The first SCSU goal was a total fluke...that is the puck luck piece We did not get outplayed. We had one defensive breakdown and one fluke against.

They had good puck movement this period. SCSU blocked shots and clogged the slot well.

ZERO puck luck. WTF...I feel like we carried the play only to be down by 2

Not thrilled about this lineup... Watchmaker, not sure what to make of your comment on Panz...the Ralph is small ice
