SIOUXELEVENS

But different rules for different players or leash lengths. Hain made stupids not 5th year mistakes and skates a regular shift in Constantini did th same he would be benched. Not same same rules for every player.

Agree on the portal we need to use it wisely but not at the expense of recruiting. Freshman need to play over portal players cause the will be the backbone of the team not one and done, you recruit these players for a reason , coach them so they develop. One example Farmers give away for the first goal on Friday , if that was Johnson he would have been benched the rest of the night but Farmer skated a regular shift all night and didn’t okay well at all in my opinion.

We have had lots of empty seats all year already, but tickets are sold so they use sales not butts in seats.

True statement but also true with all of our advantages we should be doing better , missing the NCAA tourney as much as he has is not where this program should be , top 15 every year should be the bare minimum. The AD should have minimum standards/ goals or they have a difficult conversation.

So your 100% happy with the performance of this team , lack of discipline , poor effort, poor condiitioning (or it seems st times) and not really addressing major issues with this team. It’s like the emperors new clothes every things good , we won three league titles etc etc. this reminds me of Gino’s last years and it took awhile to work out of that hole.

Why? Is Berry afraid to hurt some feelings, players won’t be his friends, come on man your job is to put the best possible team on the ice and if players get upset because they get called out for selfish plays then so be it, according to his culture the program is bigger then any player. Blais sat Blake in Denver for not giving 100 Friday , Matt green was told he was to go straight to the locker room in Mankato if he took another penality, the refs had to bring him out to serve his time then Blais sent him to the showers.

Maybe she should start the NLI and have players promote her casinos.

Maybe he is Sandy’s Yoda

And maybe the coach will play them so they get expierence.

That’s why I would put Jamernik with them for the D side.

I’d swap jamernik and Perron , looks like an awesome line up.

100% agree with this but one of my biggest issues. Is when does Berry change anything ? Just run the same lines and d pairings and style no matter what. I would be embarrassed the way DU handled us this year, it’s like we aren’t even in the same league.

Regarding Berry and players why do so many players seem to regress under him , trying to fit a square peg in a round hole? McLaughlin, James and Johnson come to mind off this years club.

I would guess he does so I have something else to bitch about, did you watch the games? What did you think.

We don’t play quick or fast enough, how many times did a Denver player break up a play by skating us down , Gaber was caught a few times , maybe it’s Berry style holding them back ? Berry may need to evolve if he wants to keep employed.

You can’t convince me that #6 would do worse then #3 or #4 , like you said let them take their lumps and learn from it.

I agree let’s develop the talent you recruited if they were talented enough to get an offer to play here let them play and develop. Part of coaching is making those players better once they are here.

10 needs to sit if he thinks his personal agenda is bigger then teams.

Leadership starts at the top , Berry need to own this. Reminding me of Gino’s last years. “we’re a much different team”

I swear he had pictures of Berry doing something.

He knows he being watched very closely why make that kind of check in the Offensive zone , why would a 5 year foward slew foot someone knowing they review everything , lack of discipline the inmates are running the asylum.

I said last night Berry looked lost on the bench , not coming out for the interview he’s an assistant coach not a head coach. Players regress under his watch , come play at ND where good players come to get mediocre and maybe that’s why the recruiting is stagnant he is still playing that grind/dump and chase style. Someone posted last night that Denver plays fast is was very evident the different styles this weekend / all four games against them.

That will never happen. 5th years or bust

Never wanted a season to end as much as this one.

Are they a much different team ?
