dagies Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Danny Kristo weighs in on the Hakstol debate https://twitter.com/dkristo7/status/586558564589707264 I was reading this thread to see if anyone else had already posted this. Guy has a little credibility, at least. And basically says what a former player once told me about Hak. If this isn't the most short-sighted and narrow-minded comment I've ever seen... If you take out the first year he was there he had a record of 96-63 and made the playoffs all 3 of those years. Why would you ignore the first year? Because it was his first year as a head coach and that team was an absolute dumpster fire that would make the Flint City Tropics look like the New York Yankees. Some simple digging reveals several reason why you can throw out that year: 1. Hak didn't start the year as the head coach. David Lohrei coached one game and then was replaced by Hakstol. (That should tell you everything you need to know about Sioux City that year because coaches don't leave after one game very often) 2. The fifth leading scorer on that team went on to score 9 points TOTAL in 4 years of college hockey (He was a forward). The leading scorer went on to Bemidji State when they were in the NCHA (D-III). 3. They went through 41 skaters and 7 goalies that year. The Wild used 5 last year and everyone freaked out. 4. The next year with a full offseason to prepare he went 35-18 and won Coach of the Year for the league. That should tell you all you need to know about what people in the league thought of him. There is a reason that everyone with actual hockey knowledge from Gasparini to Blais and from Parise to Kristo has lined up behind this guy in support. They might know a little bit more than the bunch of whiny toddlers that keep showing up here. We have out-shot the other team in 6 of the 7 Frozen Four loses that we have had under Hak so its not like he hasn't been getting the boys ready to play. Goofy things can happen in a one game playoff. This deserves more air time. Thank you. I was going to bring up a little of this, but you had far more knowledge to add than I could have. Just ran through the first period again, keeping track of player names mentioned (by John Buccigross and Barry Melrose) for each team. Here are the totals: Boston University: Rodrigues 22 Eichel 43 O'Regan 19 Greer 11 Hohmann 20 Oksanen 21 Olsson 3 Lane 6 Baillargeon 5 Phelps 1 Moran 1 Roberto 4 Grzelcyk 22 MacLeod 3 Hickey 18 Fortunato 11 Somerby 3 Diffley 3 O'Connor 13 North Dakota: Caggiula 15 Johnson 5 Parks 5 Pattyn 9 N. Schmaltz 18 Murphy 8 Chyzyk 2 St. Clair 2 Poolman 3 O'Donnell 4 Gaarder 5 Poganski 0 Thompson 5 J. Schmaltz 3 Mattson 5 LaDue 8 Ausmus 4 Stecher 6 McIntyre 12 Total 1st period player names mentioned: Boston University 229, North Dakota 119. Discuss. Dave I actually thought they were pretty fair. They often commented on calls UND should have gotten, but didn't, etc. I didn't pick up any real bias in watching the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redneksioux Posted April 10, 2015 Share Posted April 10, 2015 Wow my mom? Really people. I mean try to be a little more creative.

squirtcoach Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Please clarify, who uses a racist mascot? He's talking about Notre Dame. He gets the NDs mixed up. He has never claimed to be very smart, and has been proving it for many years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually if the coach had any integrity, Rodrigues wouldnt play tonihgt. You Hak would be pissed if one of his players did that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MafiaMan Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Actually if the coach had any integrity, Rodrigues wouldnt play tonight. You Hak would be pissed if one of his players did that!

snova4 Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Yes he would be...and the player would play anyways. Cue the Ben Blood example. I should also let it be known, if it would have been me, I'd have done the same thing as Blood. That cheap shot at the end of the game was on the same level as the throat stab on Thursday.

Irish Posted April 11, 2015 Share Posted April 11, 2015 Wasn't Brad Berry supposed to be the answer and help the team finally win a national championship? You have to admit, he has fashioned quite a nice defensive corps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
