    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.
  2. SIOUXELEVENS
    North Dakota where good players go to get worse
  3. SIOUXELEVENS
    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.
  4. SIOUXELEVENS
    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.
  7. SIOUXELEVENS
    He didn't want to coach dump and chase and hated having to cycle the puck no matter what. He also didn't believe in hard off the glass and giving up possession of the puck.

    When was the last time Hak rolled three lines cause we has too many passengers, nope we roll four and hope we grind them down and his matching top line against top line all the time wtf, no points for being macho. Let's try and match lines at home to get favorable match ups since we get the last change. Me and my brother in law were talking about the 97 teams shut down line of Henderson-Ulmer-Calder and how they didn't need to score just shut down the opposing top line.

    For first two and a half periods you couldn't even tell the Sioux were behind why wait till 8 minutes left to play? I thought they were very lucky in coming up with the w. Friday you could see they couldn't skate with us and sat. We played into their game. The head coach is responsible for having them prepared and making adj on the fly and that is my biggest problem with Hak is this team looks completely disinterested in playing 3/4 of the time then having to crank it up at the end. In my opinion in games like sat. Night you have to just let the boys go and get after it, not just stick wth the game plan. The D clears the zone and the forwards pressure all three zones not grind it on the wall plat into the wildcats game. Hakstol has lots of talent but you can't see it in his structured. System( see Tambellini )
  10. SIOUXELEVENS
    I agree 100% he is an awesome recruiter and assembles a great team but not bring able to deviate from your game plan is not the sign of a great coach.( see having Finley out with Gerbe in Denver in the FF) People have complained about the dump and chase or three forwards below the redline or being able to break the trap , sometimes you have to adjust.
  11. SIOUXELEVENS
    When people start leaving games early or don't show up things will change. The product they are showcasing this year people won't continue to pay for
  12. SIOUXELEVENS
    But Hakstol said you wouldn't be able to tell the teams apart.
  13. SIOUXELEVENS
    How could there not be if they keep playing like this.
  14. SIOUXELEVENS
    not in so many words but you always use Sandelins record compared to Hakstol's. Level playing field Sandelin wins with The recruits Hakstol. Has had and maybe a Natty or two. He seems to adjust his style to who he is playing and against Michigan his team didn't come out flat. Hakstol has to look in the mirror and maybe adjust things, style, assist. Coaches and maybe recruiting.
  15. SIOUXELEVENS
    So your happy in the direction this staff is taking this team, we were bad defensively last year worse this year. I could care less about who or what they bring in as ling as they get the most from them. NHL draft picks or high school nobodies I just want them to play an upbeat style of hockey and be competitive.
  16. SIOUXELEVENS
    So Duluth has the same tradition and history as UND, building a new building doesn't give you that. North Dakota has lots of advantages other programs wish they had.
  17. SIOUXELEVENS
    Maybe Sandelin would have had a better record with the talent that has gone through the program, seems to have done an ok job with what he has had. Hakstol seems to be stuck in the way he does things and can't adjust.
  18. SIOUXELEVENS
    If you look at Hakstol's coaching record that would be par for the course, had success early in the USHL then went the other way.
  19. SIOUXELEVENS
    Faceoffs are as much to do with effort and desire then talent. You have to want to impose you will on the other team, this team wants to be imposed on. That and Patyn spending the whole game proving how tough he is, not a good trait in a captain.
  20. SIOUXELEVENS
    Maybe not firing Hak but maybe showing Berry the door wouldn't be a bad thing. He was brought in as a defensive specialist and the D has been awful the last two years, what are we like 45 out of 59 in defensive scoring. Maybe the disparity in shots is a defensive problem also( too much time running around in you own zone). Ps mr. Schmaltz act like you want to be a D man, at least three times last night he is coasting back or not covering his man on goals scored.
  21. SIOUXELEVENS
    I would never boo my team, but the section I was in had plenty of boo birds out.
  22. SIOUXELEVENS
    Definition of insanity doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Hakstol can't or won't change his dump and chase, how many times in the offense zone all three forwards against one wall or behind the net and guess what happens? The puck comes loose and st. Lawrence takes it the other way.
  23. SIOUXELEVENS
    Hakstol doesn't seem to have a handle on this team, thought they maybe turned the corner last sat. But that was the exception and the Norm was tonight. Low shot totals, uninspired play , Schmaltz looked as disinterested as I have seen a Sioux player.
  24. SIOUXELEVENS
    Been a long time since people are streaming for the exits with five to six minutes left. If one or two players are playing bad, it's the players when it's the whole team it's the systems or the coaching.the very worst power play I have seen from North Dakota thirty plus years.
  25. SIOUXELEVENS
    We are fine, we always make a second half run. The first half is for practice.
