Ok....it's all up to interpretation. Sources I have actually played for him but I have never witnissed a practice so I truly don't know for sure. Either way I'm pro-Hak and I think he should remain our coach. I get pissed that they lose every year but it's sure fun to see the great players come through our program. We need a couple more studs though....besides Frattin (who is playing less and less) we haven't had an offensive presense in the NHL for some time. I'm guessing Brock should be called up at some point this year.

Ok got ya....I couldn't distinguish where you were going with your first post.

I think I get what you were trying to say but I don't think it came out right. By no means is it a "bad" thing to have defensive scoring. you noted we needed better secondary scoring from lines 2-4...and I agree. But scoring from lines 2-4 have nothing to do with having a nice scoring D core.

The thread has gone way off topic....Hak ain't going anyware for a long time.

Actaully you are wrong here...I've heard he is more of a players coach and that they don't necesarily have "hard" practices. I've heard this from very good sources. I'm not opposed to either coaching style, I simply wanted to inform you on this.

Your comment made absolutely no sense.

Which players are you referring too...you never mention them at all.

Didn't this year's team lead the nation in d points (collectively); I'm sure I'm wrong but I thought I read that somewhere. Must have been on 4/1 or something.

Great news...he was our best defensemen....except those penalties he took late I'll forget those however.

http://www.duluthnewstribune.com/event/article/id/263285/group/Sports/ So it's went from the Kings GM wants to sign him to the GF Herald noting he will sign???

No news on Forbort yet?

I'm sure there are players with better college stats than Kristo that are stuck in the E....but they're not as good as him. Kristo is a very good player....he'll get his shot in the show and at least will have a long AHL career. He has a great shot, his strides are short but he does skate relatively fast, he isn't terrible defensively or passing, so he should work out just fine.

None, and I am not knocking the E....just letting you know that barring a lockout, Kristo will never play regularily in the E. I knew Marto wouldn't play in the show, I though he would be just like chay and stay in the AHL. He didn't but I would never say he is an AHL lifer. Remember this....Kristo will never play in the E regularily.

Makes sense. For greed's sake I hope he stays, however, when we landed him I was hoping for at most 3 years and we got it.

This wasn't an update. It was a thought about how his team would/may perform next year. All his "updates" were much earlier.

Forbort leave yet?

Agreed. Same with UND's team. They were both highly skilled teams however lacked the passion to actually work hard and win. This is probably more of a GPL post though.

Hahaha....yeah right. You are so delusional. He may not be an NHL lifer but he will NEVER play in the East Coast league.

Haha.

Yeah Cam and Kloos hit the stat sheet hard but they are not hard to play against....their team is average at best.

I think you're a little aggresive and all you are trying to do is "stir the pot"....but what you said is probably true. I think all will get their chance....but they are all long shots to stick. Kristo has the best chance I think. Unless Rocco adds a ton a muscle (ex. Gerbe) he is simply too small to play in the NHL...only time will tell.

I'm guessing he would.

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.
