InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Looks like the P1G brought in about 50,000. Good thing those empty seats are paying customers..... Those were people. Didn't you hear it was the green out night where you were supposed to dress like a chair? Quote
GFG Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Obviously the Big Ten used ticket sales for their numbers (as did the NCHC and every other conference). But I can tell you from being there that other than the two Thursday games, which was probably about 3,000-4,000 less than announced attendance (maybe 5,000 less for the PSU-Mich game), the numbers overall aren't that far off for the announced attendance of the other games. Did the X look empty, of course it did, because even with the numbers reported by the Big Ten it's still less than 50% capacity at the X. Quote

SiouxScore Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Scott Owens has resigned http://blogs.gazette...s-from-program/ Would think Gwozdecky and maybe Eades could be a couple guys who get calls from CC. Quote
gfhockey Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 i don't think eades would fit in the private school politics Quote
SiouxScore Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 i don't think eades would fit in the private school politics Yeah I'm not too sure it would be the right fit for him but I would think CC may be interested in him. Quote
Hayduke Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Yeah I'm not too sure it would be the right fit for him but I would think CC may be interested in him. I wonder if somebody out east would come in... Somebody with a New England accent... Private school and all. Quote
MafiaMan Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Scott Owens has resigned http://blogs.gazette.com/collegehockey/2014/04/06/owens-resigns-from-program/ That's really too bad. Scott Owens is a good coach. Quote
MafiaMan Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I wonder if somebody out east would come in... Somebody with a New England accent... Private school and all. Why would Nate Leaman want to leave Providence College? Quote
SiouxScore Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Schloss mentioned the name Eric Rud as a possible candidate, he was a CC assistant the past couple years, was the head coach for the Green Bay Gamblers for a year, and a SCSU assistant for a few years. I'm hoping that they want Gwoz and he comes back and takes the job. Quote
Fetch Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 I doubt Gowz would want it or them him Who ever gets eades will soon be a contender Quote
Godsmack Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Eric Rud was a great d man and captain of the squad in 1996 that lost in the national championship. Plus, he's paid his dues as an assistant at St. Cloud and CC. My money would be on him becoming the next coach. Norm Bazin is another name as he was an assistant coach at CC under Owens. My only question is, what's considered a "more prestigious" job? UMass Lowell in Hockey East or Colorado College in the NCHC? Quote
Godsmack Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 There's an article in the Gazette from about a week ago regarding Gwoz coming to CC but Gwoz fully enforced Owens and said he wasn't interested. But who knows? Now that the job is open, you'd think Gwoz might relish the opportunity to come back to Colorado and have an opportunity to stick it to DU. Quote

Bazin played for Lowell back in the day...wasn't interested in the BU job at all...no way he leaves UM-L for CC. Quote
Godsmack Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Bazin played for Lowell back in the day...wasn't interested in the BU job at all...no way he leaves UM-L for CC. Then I bet it's Rud's job to have, which, I'd be thrilled with. Quote
franchise Posted April 6, 2014 Posted April 6, 2014 Gwoz would be a great story line and theres plenty of Sioux fans that would love to have the old villain back Quote
Wilbur Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 I'm going to miss Owens. Like CC or hate CC, boy were they fun to watch play when he was the coach. Wide open hockey games, up and down the ice. Some of the best hockey games I've ever seen involved CC and UND. Best of luck. Class act. Never put himself in the spotlight over his team, and his players were always accountable on and off the ice. Quote
keikla Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 I've always had a ton of respect for Owens, and will forever appreciate the regional spanking they gave BC. That being said, I'm a little surprised he didn't even attend the team's banquet dinner. Is there bad blood between him and the players after this season? I am not in any way trying to start rumors or imagine drama to be there that isn't...I just find it odd. I mean, he just as easily could have resigned tomorrow, after the dinner. Quote

Plus, Owens conducted himself with utmost professionalism. Quote

Between him and Lucia, it's a shame one of them didn't bring an NCAA title to Colorado Springs. Classy coach...always a tough game against CC. Kinda like Jeff Sauer, Doug Woog, and "The Gwoz," I'm sad to see him go. Quote
MafiaMan Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Then I bet it's Rud's job to have, which, I'd be thrilled with. Hot rumor is Mike Guentzel will accept the job on Wednesday. Quote
Godsmack Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Hot rumor is Mike Guentzel will accept the job on Wednesday. That's a good call too. He was an assistant at CC under Owens at one time too. Quote
