keikla Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Anyone else see this: http://www.buckys5thquarter.com/2015/3/12/8203745/mike-eaves-writes-apology-letter-to-wisconsin-hockey-fans Mike Eaves wrote an apology letter to the UW fanbase for their disastrous season. Ouch. I'm guessing he felt obligated to write it given the assistant coach's comments in a recent interview. The assistant basically said that Wisconsin has idiot fans who only look at W vs L and don't have a clue what else is actually going on. Quote

At many programs. Quote
cberkas Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Has anyone else notice that Omaha fans keep saying St. Cloud is a Frozen Four team from last season. Quote

As there should be, 4-24-4 for a program like Wisconsin is inexcusable. Grand Forks might get burned to the ground if UND ever had a record even remotely close to that. Hell, it would be chaos if we missed the NCAAs! 5 Quote

Is isn't in UND's DNA to ever go to 4-24-4, I don't care how bad of a recruiting class or early leaves would be, we would never go 4-24-2. NEVER. 1 Quote

NEVER. I bet there's a lot of Wisconsin fans who have said the exact same thing a few years ago... But I agree, it wouldn't get that bad. It shows a complete lack of leadership and pride from your team. To only win 4 games in a conference as bad as the Big 10 is absolutely astounding. Quote

UW's football and men's basketball are firing on all cylinders right now year in and year out. Hockey is no longer important there, the results bear that out. Quote

Grand Forks might get burned to the ground if UND ever had a record even remotely close to that. Hell, it would be chaos if we missed the NCAAs! Exactly. I'm sure the coach was referencing the team's youth when he mentioned other circumstances going on. The problem with that is 1) According to the above article, Wisconsin is only the 10th youngest team in the nation this year, and 2) Abundant youth is directly the result of Eaves' refusal to adjust his recruiting and class sizes in an attempt to balance.

Godsmack Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Is it out of the rhelm of possibility that, after their season ends, Wisconsin fires Eaves and then goes after Gwozdecky? After all, Gwoz played his college hockey there and we all know his successful track record at DU. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 I could see Badgers fans screaming for Mark Johnson. I know I'm putting the little red dot squarely in the middle of my chest; however, just because you can coach men does not mean you can coach women, and conversely, just because you can coach women does not mean you can coach men. 2 Quote

Godsmack Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Union up 2-0. I realize this is very early in a best of three series but would a Quinnipiac series loss bounce them out of the top 15 and consideration for the NCAA tournament? Quote
