werewolfoflondon Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 Should Hakstol change his recruiting philosophy from recruiting guys like Rocco or whoever that only play for two or three years to guys like Union had that stay four years? What really works better? Taking a hotshot for a year or two or a steady player for four? How involved are guys that really do not plan on staying long?

InHeavenThereIsNoBeer Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I'd say a mix of both works the best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxTupa Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 You need a mix, or you'll only have a good team once or twice every four years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fightingsioux4life Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 You need both. You need that handful of studs that will stick around 2-3 years at most, but you also need that larger group of guys that stays four years and gets better from year 1 to year 2 and from year 2 to year 3 and so on. And I think Hakstol is starting to do this, so the next couple of years will be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gfhockey Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 I think the last two natty winners prove what a coach needs to recruit. Nerds that play puck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need both and that is what he has for the most part in recruits he already has committed too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say I'm all for any changes that result in less posters here typing the expression "natty". It's grating at me worse than the word "selfie." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big A HG Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 If I send one of these in the mail to Hak he will have won a Natty. Then, everyone will be happy that Hak finally got his Natty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runaroundsioux Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Let's agree to retire the term "natty". Perhaps "NC" would be more appropriate. Or maybe "Holy Grail"? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
