BeazSioux Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 I don't think most frustrated posters want to fire Hak - a better title for this thread is "I wish Hak would stop being so stubborn and open things up" or "I wish Hak would go away from the chip, dump, chase, and cycle".

scpa0305 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 I think the key emphasis of Sica's post is STYLE, not the physical rink. The NHL style doesn't seem to fit in the college game. I knew he wasn't talking about the actual size of the ice sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NDHockey Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 The problem with judging various coaches by records alone is it totally overlooks the factors it takes to build a championship program. The Sandelin comparison is especially ridiculous when you compare what he had to sell to recruits vs. what Hak does. Compare the facilities like the old DECC vs. the Ralph. Compare the traditions. Compare the overall support. It's not even close to an equal situation. Any coach that gets handed the keys to this program should be expected to win at a pretty high clip. I can understand a season or two where our results slips a bit. Even the best programs have those things happen. I believe this will be one of those seasons we'll have to overlook as a negative. But I don't fault the frustration of some over the lack of a championship under the current coach either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scpa0305 Posted November 23, 2013 Share Posted November 23, 2013 A) 11-22-2 - the worst record in the BC years of Jerry York 18-19-2 - Don Lucia's worst season at Minnesota 12-17-9 Jack Parker's worst season at BU 13-26-1 Red Berenson's worst season at Michigan 11-23-4 Gino Gasparini's last season at North Dakota 7-28-4 Scott Sandelin's worst record at Minnesota-Duluth (first season there) 24-15-4 Dave Hakstol's WORST season at North Dakota Very true, he does not deserve to lose his job. What we are seeing now is that a lot of their draft picks and recruits are not panning out. Every once in awhile that will happen to an elite program. I am honestly not as high as everyone else on next years class either. Schmaltz will be very nice if he comes but the other forwards have struggled in junior hockey. Go to USHL.com and look who leads the league and look where they are going. More likely than not they will be decent college players. Beside schmaltz none of our recruits are doing anything. Our only hope is that we return all our players. I like our D but our forward recruits as a whole is somewhat concerning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goon Posted November 23, 2013 Author Share Posted November 23, 2013 not to be devils advocate but yale was 5-2-1 last year at this point and 8-3-2 at the x-mas break. their troubles came in february when they lost 5 straight. but point well taken on the others and we will just have to see if history can repeat itself. There you go, clouding the issue with facts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could sell recruits two years ago on a sexy new arena AND a national title...and sputtered into a 19 loss season last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yzerman19 Posted November 24, 2013 Share Posted November 24, 2013 As the Boss famously said "down here its just winners and losers and dont get caught on the wrong side of that line." I think some posters might be Dave Hakstol's dad, and other posters- well maybe Dave stole their date freshman year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
