Dave Starman commented on that last night also that ND had to get off the walls and get to the center of the ice. What is frustrating is they might have an easy outlet pass but it is ingrained in them hard off the glass or wall and chase down the puck again, rinse repeat.

Sounds like cubs fans, wait till next year,14 years since are last title, way way too long
-
He was invisible tonight, elite players find a way to get it done.
-
Boring uninspired hockey leads to empty seats and fans not coming or leaving early
-
Almost hope for another loss tomorrow so the Sioux miss the NCAA's and maybe something will change or we face becoming another team that doesn't ever get over the hump and pisses it down the leg.
-
Reminded me of the Yale game last year, one team going through the motions, like pros and one team playing with passion and fire like the wanted to win(Yale) . Hakstol can't make adjustments to save his life, hard off the glass dump it in and cycle.
-
I really thought that once we tied it we would close it out.
-
I used that last night when we were down 2-1 and I was wrong. I am getting tired of new lows for this team, time to go on a run for a new high.
-
Look at the. Bright side if we don't make the NCHC tourney or the NCAA maybe Hak will change how he does things, can't count how many hard off the glass give always the last two games when we had a short pass available.
-
Last night reminded me of a final five game a few years back, down 2-0 to St.Cloud and came back to win. VanVelde kinda carried us in that one. Hakstol should rewatch that game and last night and come up with a game plan where they don't come out flat and have to play from behind , against stiffer competition it might be a lot tougher to climb out of that hole.
-
Hakstol has to figure out how to beat the trap and not get all three of his forwards trapped behind the red line. Dump and chase is way to easy to defend.

Uninspired dull hockey brings empty seats and uninspired fans. This team plays much better on the road then at home.
-
This team plays a dull brand of hockey especially at home for some reason, much better road team

He sure could have double shifted his best goal scorer( Frattin) and tried carrying the puck in instead of dumping it in and giving Michigan an easy out every time.he has said lots of times he doesn't worry about what the other team is doing but focuses on his team, sometimes you have to adjust to different looks.
-
Blais has always played high risk high reward, sometimes in works sometimes they give up leads. Hakstol could loosen up a little and take some chances in his game plans(like having Marto out against Gerbe instead of Finley) Hakstol is a great recruiter and assembles an awesome team just needs to take his game generalship to a new level.
-
The harder I work the luckier I get, dump and chase just isn't fun to watch or three fowards cycling the puck before giving it up. The fowards in the d zone going hard off the glass instead of looking for the easy out and that's coaching because they all do it. Let the the fowards get after it.
-
For as bad as they played last week they played awesome last night. Maybe Hak will figure it out and quit trying to system teams to death. Thought UND was lucky on Friday two very week goals but left no doubt last night. Which team is the real one is yet to be determined. Hak has a great record after Xmas but not so great once he gets to the dance. He needs to figure this out he will be replaced. This year is the first time the Ralph hasn't been full, Friday it couldn't have been even close to 10,000 and people leaving early just isn't the norm for Sioux fans.
-
It was like apples to oranges compared to last sat night. I agree with you Oxbow basic systems but let the boys make plays and use their talent. Hockey can't be like basketball with set plays all the time.
-
Not to throw gas on the fire but Blais has won championships at every level high school, college and world jrs. Hakstol has none of that to his credit
-
Don't care who the head coach is just want them to play a different style , dump and chase and the grinding it out is not very enjoying to watch.
-
North Dakota where good players go to get worse
-
This team wastes way to much on the cycle and or grinding it out on the wall, lots of these players were goal scorers on their previous teams, you don't forget how to score. You can't score behind the net or eating the puck against the wall with you face in the glass.when was the last time we came back from being down 3-1 to winning 6-3 Hakstol style won't let that happen. We can say miller, mateau etc would have changed some things but the style is not fun to watch and not much scoring.

It's just not great hockey to watch, even Fridays win was hard to watch. Hakstol has the horses let them run no need to plow every time out. Clarke stole one Friday and wasn't good on Saturday.
-
Where is all this talent gone, lots of draft picks lost in Hakstol stubborn system. Not once did you see omahas forwards all in once place or all behind the goal. Blais isn't coming back but Hak could learn some lessons on what style they play, aggressive in your face fast pace hockey, not grind in out, dump and chase, give up possession style. Hakstol better figure this out or more and more people we'll be leaving the rink early or not coming at all. The power play, come on we all know the definition of insanity, just once try to carry it in and set it up. Omaha plays the style we played 15 years ago, you don't win every game but it's exciting and fun to watch.

By the expression on his face he thought so too.
