I actually love these lines.

I, for one, think next year's team will be just fine. I really like the incoming freshman and I believe Mark Mac and Parks will improve. They'll have a much tougher time winning a Natty but they should be a tough team to beat.

They'll start going in.....remember he took a whole season off from hockey with his injury. You don't simply bounce back right away. At the end of the day...his numbers were fine. It wasn't his fault our team was so inconsistent. Every game I saw he was doing his part.

True...he also has the best assist man in the country on his line.

Not close....but maybe they'll have more chemistry; actually I know they'll have more chemistry.

I for one think we have some nice recruits coming in next year. We should field a very competitive team next year. We'll be a top 15 team in the country next year. I don't think we'll have natty material but we'll be competitive for anyone we play. Hopefully we keep Simpson and Forbert

I'm not going to read your entire post but our d collectively has a lot of points

You are partly correct in that I too thought he should have been a little more well rounded as he was a 1st rounder, but he wasn't. Now you simply have to let him develope. He'll be a great college defenseman. I'm sure of it.

He'll be gone...probably a tad early but I think he'll leave.

Agreed. I'm sure am missing one more but honestly I can't think if a high end BC NHL player. I follow a lot if NHL hockey too.

During the first game they listed the teams with the most draft picks from this season....goofs were one, we were two and BC was three I believe. But BC did have 3-4 less draft picks than us. As far as top end talent in the league, I know we produce more....can't think of a good BC player that has come out in the last ten years....Orpik and ?? Probably another defenseman. There are BC players but they are very much role players. Parise, toews, oshie....those guys are not role players.

This was the year....we'll remember this year for a while. 1-0 going into the third and we come out flat. Can't let this one go....tough pill to swallow. I thought we were in Pittsburg.

In recent years und has had more top end NHL talent and their teams have more draft picks, they are also ranked very high (obviously too high) at the beginning of most seasons....super confused by your post. On paper our team is more talented than our opponents (except the goofs).

I agree that he shouldn't be fired....however this is the first time since he's started that I have started to question his coaching and think about what he was given that ALL other coaches don't have. The guy has an unlimited budget and world class facilities that kids aren't going to see anywhere. It is evident that he is able to recruit kids with ease. Every year his teams are full of top end (college) talent. At what point doesn't a guy get even lucky. It is not like they are losing hard fought games....his team lays down at the most critical times. I know Yale beat MN yesterday but I also thought MN laid down. I am willing to agree that we don't get crazy and fire Hak but taking a step back and looking to the future I am not too sure where this program is going in terms of post season success...and no it's not acceptable to compare us with SCSU...or Yale for that matter.

Haha because Omaha really had everything und offers....good one. Are u saying blais can't coach??? I wonder what Hak would do in Omaha

Yes potentially. Kristo will get a look. Knight will have to play his way up there.

I wish we had Steve Johnson....that guy's a coach.

In a nutshell you are exactly right.

I liked everything u said until the end....they had 15 draft picks this year! Second in the nations; you think their talent is eroding? Get real. Someone needs to mentor these guys and coach them how to win...and play hard.

I knew what he was saying...but even excluding the NHL greats he still has recruited top end college recruits year in and year out. But he has nothing to show for it. I'm starting to wonder if another coach got an unlimited budget what they would do with the program.

Wow that game was so frustrating. Hak is a great recruiter but I may start questioning is mentoring and coaching pretty soon. I don't want to hear Yale is a good team because they are not. Mn laid an egg and und simply is only good on paper....they weren't a very good team all year long. They can beat anyone but will play down to their opponents level every game. Pretty frustrating.

This isn't gonna end well

That definitely was not indisputable. If they would have called no goal originally I would have been fine with it.

No goal

Drake should not be the odd man out.
