SIOUXELEVENS

Number 26 should make a statement in the first period.

The game wasn’t that close

Definition of insanity, being at the game tonight and expecting a different result.

Are the pucks in a L shape, lol

So we have the culture, the history and the facilities , so why are we not competitive? I believe 2016 was more about the core group of players and how the went about things then Brad Berry. That team could have won with anyone at the helm including Hakstol. Name one coaching move in 2016 that made a difference?

I don’t believe it would , these players have/ had talent and it’s still there. We need to put systems in and a work ethic that brings out that. Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work. Your coach making excuses for his players doesn’t help, hold people accountable and if you dont skate you sit, when was the last time you heard of s heathly scratch?

If you think this team is competitive not sure which team your watching. With all the built in advantages such as the Ralph, lots of alumni in the NHL this team should not be “ slightly above average” Average is the worst of the best and the best of the worst , Paul Harvey.

Most pathetic team since I’ve had season tickets (1984). Even Gino’s bad years his team were not even close to this !@#$ show. It will be cool next year to have an empty barn with s cool scoreboard. The first ten minutes of the third the puck never left our end. Berry quote “ make sure we play a good D game against a great offensive team, don’t want to get into a track meet “ whatever happened to if you pressure them in their end they can’t score in ours. Really doubting our season tickets for next year and that’s the first time in 35 years.

I guarantee if Blais or Hak was coaching someone would have been sent out to send a message to # 22. It’s ok because the players now have no passion or fire.

Berry lost this team last year, it’s just continuing thru this year.

Barn will be emptier tomorrow

Truly the men against the boys, pitiful

Three years of playing worse after Xmas break, may be a trend

Shots mean nothing , nothing. How about quality chances, lacking compared to other teams.

This team has zero intensity, can’t hold a lead and at time look like the don’t care. Maybe Berry should ask his mentors , Hak and Blais because this wouldn’t fly very long with those guys. North Dakota where good players go to become mediocre.

Why should he be though, the head coach has the systems and which style he wants to play and it’s up to the assist’s to implement those and if their not working the head coach needs to change, Berry can’t even change his pojst game comments , culture, working hard, trust the process , blah blah. No fire from the coach, not ready, on the coach. How long before the teams who draft players start pulling them early or not letting them come at all? Hoff, Mismash, Kawaguchi etc all were scorers before they came here now they all struggle, what the common denominator?

I agree with Goon, 1st year on his five year extension. My question after last year why did we give him a five year deal? Coach Berry we weren’t completely thrilled with your season but here is a five year extension, WTF? I know in my job if I have a terrible year I sure don’t see that. But I think you will see Shaw fall on the sword and move on, the if it doesn’t change next season you may see some kind of agreement to move on.

Hennessy has to keep his job, don’t rock the boat.

No way UND has the $ to buy out 4 years of Berry’s contract

First rule of holes , when you realize your in one quit digging.

Wow, just wow

Reiger >Shaw

I think someone is pulling somebodies chain.

Just speculating , easy to blame other things then say the buck stops here and I need to fix it. I hope he pulls his head out of the sand or we could be looking a a down turn for a few years.

All these things you bring up are issues that the head coach can control or fix, but will he.Maybe he thinks he is doing fine and it’s outside influences affecting the team.Berry is in the first year of an extension so he’s not going anywhere.
