Gma loves hockey Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 when can we get a coach that can coach in the plaoffs When you learn spelling and grammar. 1 Quote
siouxforce19 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 It has been a strange year for Miami Hockey. I'm sure we have some talent but we have struggled. We've went from #1 in the country to last place in the NCHC. Maybe we didn't adjust well to the long travel (although we took a bus all the way to St. Cloud), or we were overrated or underachieved, or the CCHA was overrated (but Notre Dame has done well in HE), or we are adjusting to the style of play of the NCHC vs CCHA.... Whatever has happened, I think we are the low seed that nobody really wants to play because we are capable of beating anybody. We have made the NCAA Tourney 8 straight years and I'd love to win the next 2 and make it 9. Props to your boys on surviving the bus trip to Cloud! We made the drive from Minneapolis to Oxford in October (overnight) and it was quite a haul. So much coffee was drank. Quote
hrkac Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Western Michigan...Miami...I'm thrilled to see some new teams in the conference tournament...sure beats WCHA-lite. not sure you'll still think that if UND were to lose tomorrow. . Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 when can we get a coach that can coach in the plaoffs If Scotty Bowman and Viktor Tikhonov were co-coaches of UND hockey, I'm sure you'd still be finding things to bitch about... Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 If UND wins i'll have run the table on picking winners. Going to Vegas in a few weeks so hope this hot streak stays with me. The price is WRONG, Bobby! You picked UNO in 2 and UMD in 3. Good luck in Vegas, Mr. Griswold! Quote
MafiaMan Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Miami @ SCSU-- Miami in 3 CC @ UND- UND in 3 Denver @ UNO- UNO in 2 Western @ Duluth- Duluth in 3 Quote
sioux24/7 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 When you learn spelling and grammer. That's awkward. 1 Quote
MissSioux85 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 I saw this on twitter and thought it was interesting @ChrisDilks: UNO was 89-86-30 w/ 1 tourney appearance in 5 years prior to Blais. 91-86-18 w/ 1 tourney appearance w/ Blais (5 years) I believe he has one year left on his contract. Quote
scpa0305 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 I saw this on twitter and thought it was interesting I believe he has one year left on his contract. Blais has one of the top recruiting classes coming in next year. They need to find some defenseman and a tendy and they'll be a top program. Quote
hrkac Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Dean Blais will leave coaching on his own terms not fired. Quote
petey23 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Buckle up and win tomorrow. We have been here before. Not gonna bitch about game or coaching or effort.....thought it was all alright tonight....it is not easy to end a team's season.....that said I think we win 4-1 or 5-1 tomorrow night. What I am going to bitch about are 2 things that are arena experience related. The first is kind of minor but has been bugging me for awhile and I know I am not alone as the people sitting around me hate it as well. Find something different to say than "Lets play old time hockey" or whatever the hell he says....it sounds so hokey. The 2nd is a little more egregious. Whoever is in charge of the "ads" we run during the game should be fired yesterday. Stop with the ads for the UND Pre party next weekend in Minneapolis for the NCHC frozen faceoff. IF we make it, people will figure it out. it is obnoxious it is disrespectful it is arrogant it is tasteless heard of karma CC doesn't need anything to hang on the bulletin board....all they have to do is look up at the screen every couple breaks in the action and see that the School they are playing has absolutely no respect for them or their program and is already making plans for next weekend. Somebody at the Ralph or in the AD office needs to get a clue. 1 Quote
gfNDfan Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Now that St. Clown and Duluth are OUT it's up to the good fans of Western Michigan and Miami to TRAVEL to make the first NCHC conference tourney a success....that's not a question - that's a challenge! You guys had the balls to win your series...GONNA SHOW UP for the tourney or like a pussy watch it on tv??.....TRAVEL AND HAVE THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE boys! (fun guarenteed!) Quote
Johnny Ringo Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Duluth out shot Western 37-11 and lost 4-3. Quote
petey23 Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Duluth out shot Western 37-11 and lost 4-3. I was following game on my CHN phone app.....at 1 point the shots were 18-2 and the score was 2-2 Quote
Johnny Ringo Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 They're finding ways to win games especially with Hafner getting hot. Rather not play them but at this point every game is a dogfight. Quote
sprig Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 Waiting for Jim's new pairwise predictions. Can the Sioux even crawl off the bubble (now 15) with any losses in the next 3. I expect not, all the games will be vs. teams very low in the pairwise. Any loss should end their season. Conference tourney championship is now more important than the ncaa's (since any loss ends their season). Autobid or bust, for all remaining NCHC teams. Cool to see these different teams in Minneapolis (sans Denver), but the Sioux need to be there as well. Sioux/Miami, Friday night at the Target Center. Quote

The NCHC upsets in the 1st round did us no favors...unless one considers next weekend a UND "home" series at Target with the 3 other team there...provided a win vs CC tonight. Quote

It's odd to see this conference in the position that they are; something that I don't remember ever happening in the old WCHA. HE is kicking our arse, and we need both Vermont and Northeastern to lose today. NCHC=WCHA=ECAC and all those are barely better than the AHA. Quote
burd Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 I find myself OK with this one-and-done situation. Might as well start now if they think they have the stuff. Quote
SiouxScore Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 They're finding ways to win games especially with Hafner getting hot. Rather not play them but at this point every game is a dogfight. I believe they actually went away from him and gave Slubowski the start last night. Quote
keikla Posted March 16, 2014 Posted March 16, 2014 I believe they actually went away from him and gave Slubowski the start last night. They did, and I thought it would be their undoing considering how solid Hafner has been. Clearly, that wasn't the case, and they have a phenomenal goaltender tandem. Quote
