  1. Another sore spot with me is the "young" label. UND has 11 upperclassmen. That has to be average among college teams. The "young" label just means the coaches have not done a great job of landing players at UND lately, which is why I suspect Eades was let go. However, in all fairness, this is not a "young" team.

    I'm not using this as an excuse by any means but our team is young bud.

  2. in this i assume raw=young? that doesn't constitute their coaching being better than UND's.

    Motzko is a great coach, he pulled in vanek at um which pretty much won two nattys, I would say he has out coached Hak. Given the opportunities our university would bring I would think he would do just fine coaching a similar program as ours.

  3. I think we have some great players on our team and we have had some great players come through this program over the last decade. We will also get better as the season goes. My one issue with the Sioux over the past 3-4 years is how they play when they have the lead. No matter what period it is it seems as though they are sitting back and waiting for the game to get over. Where are all the stat chasers? Where are all the guys who want to embarrass a team in their own building? This team tonight was playing for the 1-0 win and that's it. This has been a common theme in big games under the current regime.

  4. Anyone with any knowledge on Drake and his status for this weekend?

    After seeing his incident happen right in front of us, my gut says he sits this weekend as a precautionary measure.

    I was in the box kiddy-corner from the injury so I honestly didn't see what happened only read about it. I agree that it would be best if he sat the weekend unless he simply got a stinger and is ok.

  5. Really?

    You realize I was referring to the fact that BC is currently ROTATING their goalies, right?

    Yes, I was actually agreeing with you that Demko IS their goalie. I guess I could see where an extremely defensive person could misconstrue what I posted to think I was trying to correct you. Haha, settle down buddy.

  6. I remember educating my wife about Toewser...Oshie was flashier with the dangles and big hits, Duncan racked up the goals, but Toewser was a PERFECT hockey player. He did everything right.

    I was just telling by Goofer buddy that I thought Toews was the best college hockey player I have seen in my lifetime. As far as a complete hockey player goes. He was super young but I had the feeling he was going to be an NHL star. I didn't know he would go on to captain to Cups before the age of 26 (I believe).

  7. What is it with Hakstol-coached teams winning on Friday night and laying a big, fat, steaming turd on Saturday night? Hopefully, this team will develop consistency by Christmas. And I think winning at home will be important in a stacked conference like the NCHC.

    Agreed this has now become a very constant theme. However the team did not look that bad...they were put in a tough spot because Zane played so poorly.
