sprig Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 He's getting closer to the problems that sent Frattin home for a semester+. Hope he straightens out and turns it around like Frats did. Quote

andtheHomeoftheSIOUX!! Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 kick him off the team for a semester give him the frat party treatment! wow you're back. Quote
scpa0305 Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 He's getting closer to the problems that sent Frattin home for a semester+. Hope he straightens out and turns it around like Frats did. Frattin was a full blown blackout.....he needed to get himself figured out. I say sit chyz until the new year and figure out if this kid wants to actually play hockey. He had been picking his game up recently. Quote

We fans want you on the team. Quote
Godsmack Posted December 9, 2013 Posted December 9, 2013 DISCLAIMER: If this is really about $4 and a cab ride the response has to be: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SYLKQljwoEM If there is more to it (and there almost has to be), Hakstol is taking the right approach. Classic commercial!!!! Quote
Snake Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 I'd agree, Brynn hasn't gone down to that level yet. We fans want you on the team. But if he's headed down that path, intervening now might be the best thing for the kid. Quote

yzerman19 Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 too much speculation for me to pass judgment. If it was a cab fare for $4, what were the circumstances? When did it occur? His other two incidents are non-issues for me...the team initiation party and SpringFest after the season was over...he's in college. He doesn't need an intervention. Hak HAS to suspend him pending final resolution however. 1 Quote
gfhockey Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 does hak have control over the team? Should have a no booze policy set in place first ladue now chyzk whose next? Quote
Siouxman Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 We don't know the terms and conditions that Hakstol laid down after the last incident (whether you consider it a big deal or not). It may not be the $4 issue, but rather that he did not meet the expectations placed on him. Quote
brianvf Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 does hak have control over the team? whose next? FIRE HAK!!! Obviously. Quote
brianvf Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Pretty sad to see an incident like this happen. Reflects poorly on him, the team, and the university. Quote
gfhockey Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 FIRE HAK!!! Obviously. I never said fire hak? I just want to know if people think he has control over the team... granted I know its college and kids binge drink all the time but its hockey season...gotta be committed to the team instead of downing beers. I never said chyzk was drunk but something must of clouded his judgement at 1:41 am coming from down town....which only thing open in downtown at that time are bars. with that beind said...cant believe that taxi drive went thru these lengths to get fricken 4 bucks...safe to say im avoiding that jackwagon now...

You have committed the Cardinal Sin of questioning Hakstol's leadership of the program. I think it is fair to ask if Hakstol has control over his players; there have been a lot of incidences of stupidity the past couple of years. Quote
gfhockey Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 the green shade wearers and the kool aid drinkers will rail me for questioning it I know but someone has to keep reality in check around here. 1 Quote

willythekid Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 Good riddance... what a moron if there is any truth to this. I don't care if it's a candy bar or a car, stealing is stealing. I'm fine with big suspensions for alcohol related offences and I believe something like this is much worse. 1 Quote
burd Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 We know about three infractions, though each, by itself, is relatively minor. Together, they are very troubling, and there is probably a decent chance that other character evidence unrelated to reported events is part of Hak's assessment. As for pleasing NG, they always do early on. Theft is theft, and $4 looks no different that $1,499 or whatever the felony cutoff is, on the record. 2 Quote
yzerman19 Posted December 10, 2013 Posted December 10, 2013 He might've thought someone already paid for the cab or some other issue. Maybe someone else got dropped off at his place. Maybe he was drunk and gave a bad credit card #. Who knows. It is just highly unlikely he would risk serious trouble over $4. It sounds to me like circumstances. Maybe he had a reason for not paying and got into a dispute, refusing to pay, where the cabbie then decided to go to the cops. At least he didn't beat the guy ala Patrick Kane. Maybe it had to do with correct change or something. Maybe the fare was $9 and he thinks he gave the cabbie a $10 and the cabbie insists it was a $5. $4 is not intentional theft. No way. 1 Quote

Maybe it had to do with correct change or something. Maybe the fare was $9 and he thinks he gave the cabbie a $10 and the cabbie insists it was a $5. $4 is not intentional theft. No way. According to the GF Herald article, he took the cab from downtown to the Valley Dairy store at University and North Washington. The article didn't mention anyone else in the cab. The fare for that distance is approximately $4 according to the owner of the cab company. Instead of paying, he ran into the Valley Dairy store and didn't come out. As you suggest, there could be several different reasons he didn't pay. But none of them are good enough to risk trouble over $4. Quote
