  1. I like St. Clair, and as you can see, I put him out there too. I just don't think he can center the second line...

    I don't dislike having Mark Mac on the first line, but I want to try Rocco up there now.

    We're not misaligned in thinking, just a couple switches

    my only issue with Rocco on the first line is are all our eggs in one basket. If they do put Rocco with Kristo speed with be in abundance for sure. In another thread someone said they wouldn't sit Schmaltz because he might be a flight risk, I say play the rights players no matter what. I just like what St. Clair-Rocco-Caggiula do when they are together.

  2. I think the D sometimes try's to do too much ands ends up eating it on the wall and getting a face off vs taking the easy play and getting it out out of the zone(see Gleason vs BU) hard off the glass and out is better than a d zone face off. Next game Schmaltz and Matson ride the pine and go with five d or try Jim back there. The Sioux have never been good at prevent defense, keep the pressure on in the O zone, best defense is a good offense.

  3. Pathetic performance, also waiting for Berrys vaunted defense we played better d last year. Why is pattyn centering the third line not much offense from him. Hakstol keeps peeing down his own leg, for crips sake don't just scowl make some adjustments. Saunders didn't look like a d1 goalie tonight very very weak

  4. Like someone said earlier we need to spread ut the scoring so we are very difficult to plat against.

    Seems like a good mix with a great first two lines and good talent and hustle on the 3-4 lines. I believe Kristo is gone but Jones comes and is rookie of the year and Nelson is player of the year.

  6. Did anyone else think Blood seemed a little slow this weekend, didn't seem like he was skating like normal, he may be a little dinged up like the rest of the team or just getting run down with the ungodly amount of ice time he logs. Twelve league games left lets finish strong.

  7. Is the season over, not quite. If I was told we would split this weekend I would have been good with that, win five of the next six and we will have home ice come playoff time. This team has to find out that they can't just show up, low on talent, they just need to out work the other team.

  8. This is Hakstols opportunity to coach when he doesn't have the talent and he is failing so far, how does North Dakota get out muscled and out hit by anyone let alone both Bemidji and the gophers and getting shut out three games already and there is lots of games left. We play dump and chase but never get there and it's an easy out for the opposing defenseman. I thought it would be a little bit of a down year but 10-11 place is not what i was expecting. This team looks disorganized and not interested in playing Sioux hockey, I hope the new jerseys arrive soon because this group is not SIOUX hockey in my book. Hakstol should at least try to coach, what does he change ever except one player on the fourth line, change the powerplay if it not working and hit somebody, anybody. Hakstol can move on anytime to greener pastures cause he ain't getting it done here, the talent he has had he should have a couple of titles not near misses.

  9. I can't quite figure the three defense on the powerplay either. I say try different line combos, what could go wrong, we don't score.
