Can't help but think how Berry needed to load up a line.
Jones and Guchi at a minimum.
Then he would have to coach.
-
I don’t believe Berry thinks anything is wrong with this team.
-
You just can’t make how offensively challenged this team is.

Lather, rinse repeat seen this before.

If the Russians are playing the gophers , I’m red for the day.

I can empathize with a lot of your points, but this is college hockey. You just named three underclassmen. Yes, each of them should have WAY better numbers and I do believe the vanilla/bland ozone strategy is mind-numbing to watch (as everything flows through the dmen), but they are underclassmen. In this day and age, if you're only relying on underclassmen to produce you have a colossal team makeup problem.
I’m not blaming the players, they need to be put into situations where they can be successful. putting out eggs in the incoming freshman pockets doesn’t sound like the recipe for success so we are going to need our juniors to step up their game.

Two years in a row being in the bottom of the league In scoring and PP % is a trend and Berry needs to address this. The puck luck and hot goalie excuse is worn out, doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results is insanity. Adams was a scorer in the USHL, Weatherby in the BCHL and Mismash with the USDT. Berry needs to find a system That balances his defensive strategy with an offense that scores more than 1 goal a game. If he has a third year like the last two he may become unemployed.

Putting 18 with 22 was always a head scratcher to me, Adams has speed and 22 doesn’t . 29 and 8 would have been a better fit.

#18 over #5 every time

This is where I see Adams leaving much like WIlkie and Murphy in the past due to playing time and who could blame him when #5 keeps getting trotted out there for a regular shift and was inserted onto the first PP unit! I think Adams must have killed Berry's dog or something as I thought he had one of his best games Friday night in Colorado Springs and the next night he's the 19th skater and the following Friday a healthy scratch. Someone with offensive upside on a team with ZERO scoring punch the past two years and continuously is a healthy scratch.
With you on this, Berry's line ups are drawing names from a hat.

Attitude, preparation and effort can and should be controlled by the head coach. We will see if Berry can turn this around or do we have these same talks about scoring and specialty teams next year.
-
So this year is still going but what does Berry need to improve on for next year, he’s not going anywhere soon so does he have the ability to change and improve? I think he needs to rethink his offensive schemes even with more talent he needs to tweak this. How does he motivate and install some discipline in the team. This team has shown flashes of being very good but also playing down to the competition ie Canisius/Bemidji. Does he start holding players accountable, does he improve the specialty teams? Can he do this with the current staff? I believe mr Berry needs to do some offseason soul searching to find these answers. This team will not win every game will all know that but they should be way more competitive from start to finish then they are. He has lots of resources and hopefully the ability to turn this around. He can also bounce things off his mentors, Blais, Hak and any former coaches . This was not a fun year to be a ND fan but it’s not over yet either.

Well, for starters, Berry’s system wins far fewer games and doesn’t make NCAA tournaments...
A much more simplistic look.

This is just my opinion but Berry’s system focuses on the D men, cycle cycle then back to the D men for s shot. Other teams take everything to the net we kick it back to our defense, on the power play they do this also. When have we worked it down low on the power play ? There has to be a reason these players come in and just lose their scoring touch.

Yup, spot on. Tonight's game a microcosm of the whole season. Tons of shots on goal but only like 1 goal after 30 shots while UNO ties it up on like only 12 shots (luckily that one shot they had 1st period went off the post). How does this proud hockey program with it's recruiting, facilities, etc. have a team with such lack-luster finishing/goal scoring/offensive creativity that equates to a Yugo? So sick of it when programs such as Mia, Neb-O, CC, W. MIch, etc. have more offensively skilled players than we do? It boggles my mind. Just so frustrated after these last 2 - 3 seasons.
Been saying it for awhile, all these players don’t just forget how to score, Berry’s system where D men lead the team in shots and score more goals then the fowards is handicapping their creativity, along with some very poor lineups.

Been saying that Berry is just too nice a guy to be head coach, most penalized team , worst power play and in the bottom of the league in scoring the past two years.

I just turned on the Minnesota Michigan game, i’ve never seen the mariuchi so empty, or it’s a lot of fans dressed as seats!
Looks like about fifty die hard fans.

And people wonder why fans are calling for a change.
