Siouxdonyms Posted February 2, 2008 Author Posted February 2, 2008 Hakstol's pre-game comments: I think we've played pretty well for a lot of the year, so I don't know if we've played better lately. We've closed games out, done a few things better, our PP has gotten better; we've taken advantage of our opportunities. We still have areas to get better at. Without the puck, we need to get better. In the neutral zone and defensive zone, we need to be more tenacious. Still looking for some changes on the lines, made some again this week, so hopefully we some good things. Minnesota is a pretty good offensive team. They cycle it and possess it as well as any team we've faced. I don't know if we've thought to much about them not scoring goals. Maybe who can possess the puck and bring more pressure in the offensive zone will decide the game, both tonight and tomorrow night. We need to make sure to make life pretty tough for Kangas, get in there and get some rebounds on him. They came in, in December, and they had a strong performance. I've watched a lot of their games and though their record doesn't show it, they've had strong performances all year long. Our juniors and seniors have played in some big games, so they need to put that experience to use, and bring it to the table consistantly down the stretch. The young guys have to go out and bring energy. They're most likely not going to have poise and pressure, and the older guys have to show them the way. I think it's fun to be involved in these games. This building is a great atmosphere. How could you not like playing in this type of game? Quote

luapsided Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 Malone's going to have to skate his butt of to keep up with Trupp and Frattin. malone can hold his own. not worried. The key is to get on the board first and have lammy tested early and make a couple killer saves. After that, it should be a great game! Quote

I'm sure there are a lot of people looking for an alternative to the the two homers on the Goofer sports network ... I wish the Sioux Radio feed was a bit better sync'd with the video Quote
farce poobah Posted February 2, 2008 Posted February 2, 2008 I know its Friday night and we're on the road, but I have a feeling we're going to play well tonight. Keys: 1) PATIENCE with the puck. Plays develop slowly on the big rink. 2) USE the whole surface. Killing penalties especially, we're used to a possess-clear it approach. MN often makes a pass, and that's often better. Angles exist all over; use them. 3) DEFENSE: Hold your ground and make them come to you. Don't get caught out in nowhere land when the play moves behind you. 4) MOVE feet and DRAW penalties. Quote
