I think the all important question is....do national championships even matter? Or are they simply a plus when they happen? To some it seems to matter a lot. To others not so much. To a third group they do matter however the state of the current program appears adequate even though something seems a tad off come April. All parties have their viewpoints and arguments. Honestly, groups #1 and #2 have done their professing (for too long). I honestly think neither party will ever see things the same so maybe we quit talking about it...Hak isn't going anywhere for the foreseeable future unless it is his own call.

I'm starting to think Kane may be coming back a tad early. Tomorrow will be the 7 week mark....even Zucker waited 8 and that was a best case scenario. I really hope the Hawks aren't rushing him. In reading the quotes, Kane seems to be the only party saying he's not too sure if he's ready. Scary. Hopefully they just play him on the PP for the first few games.

Murray was getting older. Sometimes it is the right move to go back to college where you can teach and motivate rather than just motivate (and deal with egos). UND would never have a chance at Tippet.

Mario signed a PTO...great news.

Fair.

Based on what comparison

Hold your horses bud. Murray was a decent coach. Anyways, you're right Tippet isn't anywhere near ready to walk away from the pro game yet. I just read on Twitter that he isn't getting fired.

I always wondered why stretcher never got a sniff on this years pp.

To open up, I do not want Hak fired however I am getting frustrated with our April record. Ok so that's straight. How many nattys has Miami won ever? Respectfully, some of these comparisons are terrible. Also, please stop comparing nfl qbs to a coaching position. Which great nfl coach never won the big one? And when I say great I mean great. And, what would make those coaches great? Again, I remain confident with Hak but every knows coaches go down for their titles. He'll get his.

Folin?

We're due....I'm feeling it for next year if we return our boys

Why MN out of all places? I thought you would have said MTU

Many UDFA are underclassman. Usually older guys that matured later.

You must be a tough guy to please

Completely agree. Jordan was very good for us. Also nick was good as well. You noted his point totals, his numbers would have been a lot better but he wasn't playing with the caliber of offensive players the others were playing with (excluding Rocco but Rocco generates his own points where nick needs a finisher).

Agreed. His shot is legit he just needs more time to round out his game.

Haha, getting j schmaltz back would be awesome! Although not likely to happen. On a side note, those d pairs you listed are beyond awesome.

I don't think he has a problem, however as he is a forward who is averaging less than a half point per game it would appear that the game may be moving a tad quick for him, especially considering some think he's ready for a league which is close to twice as fast as the ushl. Also he was one of the older guys on his team. I would like him to go back and see him improve on his point total, similar to what Wilkie did (even though Wilkie is younger).

Yon needs another ushl year in the worst way. It will get his confidence up and he'll have a full year on the pp.

I like berry but und hasn't had a dman actually stay in the show for some time. All I can think of is Greene. Everyone else is up and down. Meanwhile MN is right behind some CHL team as the program producing the most current NHL dmen.

Pots would have had much better numbers than that but he broke his leg.

Rodrigues, maybe. Eichel....not a chance.

All the teams will be solid. I see Omaha, UND, Duluth, Denver being solid.

But to be fair cammarata hasn't been a bust or anything. To the original poster, the ushl is night and day better than it was 10-15 years ago. If you dominate the ushl you're a very good player.

Sorry I was actually thinking we were talking about the older one.
