Wisconsin Sioux Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 geaux_sioux Today, 12:32 PM To rationalize this as a meaningless exhibition is ridiculous. It doesn't matter if it's a drill in practice or a game against some random bad Canadian college hockey team, effort should be 100% and unquestionable. You are right, it is not meaningless. This is a recruiting area for North Dakota. What message was received by future possible young recruits about the direction UND is going. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And neither did Ryan Potulny in that infamous goal of HC's at the Ralph. Coughed it up in the corner, lollygagged back. Back of net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Godsmack Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I hate to say this but, I was a bit embarrassed at UND's performance last weekend, particularly Friday's game. There were a number of teams in attendance (I'd say they were pee wee and bantems) and I kept telling myself as well as my girlfriend-who hadn't seen UND in person until the BC trip-we're really a much better skating team...I swear! I bet those local kids weren't in awe of UND after Friday's game. I'm not blaming the coaches because at the end of the day, the players went out on the ice. I was just really bummed after Friday's game because it's always been a source of pride for me to attend road games over the years-UND regularly has an air of confidence (not arrogance but more of an attitude of, "we're here to win and we will work our butts off to accomplish that and we will not be intimidated, no matter how hostile the opposing fans are."). I promised my gf that when she sees the UND/CC series, win or lose, she is going to see a much more aggressive, hungry, and harder working squad. I am confident that Hakstol will have the full attention of the players this week in practice as well as this weekend's games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no clue, and I went to HS with him. And specifically regarding my comment, watch the YouTube video of that Holy Cross goal again...if that isn't a textbook example of lack of hustle on his part, I don't know what is.

No it isn't, but Potulny's sand-bagging back to the defensive end of the ice after turning the puck over was bush league. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
