Hak vs Blais


UND83

Recommended Posts

The Sioux are 8 days out from making a run at # 8, but I find myself talking about & psychoanalyzing gfhockey. Maybe it's just so I forget about the stress of next week & focus on something more light-hearted.

 

And Blackheart, like I said, his schtick is acting like he's challenged. If he were to consistently write & act sensibly (which I've seen him do a couple times when he let down his guard & forgot about his act momentarily), his leash would be a lot shorter here & people wouldn't put up with him as much. ..... He'll keep acting the way he does, & people will still continue to try & talk seriously to him;  people either don't get him & his motivations or they enjoy going around & around in cul-de-sacs with him .... his dialogues tell as much about the people who perpetually get sucked into his web as they do about him  ....takes two to tango, as they say.  : )

You keep saying these things. But who are you talking about? I havent seen anyone getting in a serious convo with him.

Oxbow and his w2? Lol ;)

I used to be at the front of the line in criticizing him; but I've come to realize that his personal success is dependent on how well some college kids execute, so I've mellowed out quite a bit in this regard. But I also acknowledge that he does have an obligation in his field as a coach to succeed at the highest level. I've just filed down my fangs a bit & tried to find a happy medium between "the sky is always blue" apologists & those who think he needs to win a natty every year.. But that won't stop me from spewing venom at the tv on 04/09 if it warrants it ... :  )

I like what you said.  I look at it as a pool player is the one playing, it's on him to make the shots, so not a fair comparison with a coach.  A hockey coach can only recruit and coach, he doesn't actually play though but he gives them the opportunity to get there.  Hakstol has done that brilliantly, in fact 7 times in 11 years in the FF.  That's pretty damn impressive.  If it was the NHL and not one and done, he would have two natties.

I may be stating the obvious to some here, but do people not realize that gfhockey's sole purpose here is to get under people's skin & derail threads? Yet people still engage him in this cat & mouse, back-&-forth talk like they're going to get somewhere with him, year after year after year. And it's usually the same people who keep trying to put him in his place & talk sense to him. Played! I know I'm pouring fuel on the situation as he thrives on attention & I won't address it anymore, but I thought it funny how some guy is able to toy & tick people off around here like a maestro; using otherwise very smart people like a tool. Which he enjoys doing immensely, obviously; his schtick is to come off as a dumb one, but he's clearly getting the last laugh on each one who replies to his posts. Anyway, it's funny to read, it's like he serves as a subconscious release valve & bull's-eye for Sioux fan's latent angst....Personally, I find him funny & refreshing to read sometimes; yet find it hilarious how he plays with people's heads all the time. If he can get away with it & people still bite at this posts, no need for him to stop.    :)

 

This is hogwash...pure hogwash!  You mean to tell me that you don't actually believe that gfhockey makes upper 6 figures and basically runs the oil fields out west, or that he's not personal buddies with Blais and probably has a private jet flying him around from the oil patch to Minneapolis for the Frozen Faceoff, Fargo for the regional and Boston for the National Championship?  Heck, he probably flew his boys down to Omaha for a few UNO games and then treated Blaiser to a wild night of partying and gambling at the casinos!  If you don't take him at his word, then I don't know what to tell you.  Heck, he's 10-0 in game day threads!

 

I suppose next you're going to tell me that the tooth fairy only put 50 cents under my pillow and my parents had to put an extra couple bucks in there after she left so I wouldn't be disappointed.  Or that the Easter Bunny put vegetables in the plastic eggs that he leaves for us in the morning, and my parents would get up early and replace the veggies with candy.  I MEAN...COME ON!!!

Let's cheer them past BU, and hope Omaha gets by Providence. I will be perfectly happy watching our favorite team blow a 2 goal lead, and then win in OT... ;)

LOL, that seems to be the pattern with most Sioux hockey teams.

 

Possible scenario with BU: Have a 2-goal lead with 3:58 to go, get a double-minor because a BU player was barely bleeding after a Sioux player inadvertently slashes him in the neck, lose that lead with :32 remaining, almost lose the game with 2 seconds remaining after a mad scramble in front of Zane & a BU ripper off the Sioux crossbar, & win it with 2 minutes left in 2OT.....then go & rest up for a UNO team that won by 5 goals in the earlier game....When they could have just spared us all the aforementioned grief & blown them out by 5 or so goals. Not to mention all the marriages & relationships which were destroyed in ND because of some vitriol which was spewed at a wife/gf while all this drama was unfolding : )
