Anyone care to clarify? All I've known about so far was that he wasn't happy last year when placed in Fargo...and I think he had a legitimate complaint, too. My memory's a bit foggy on this, but weren't they a higher seed than a couple teams but got placed in Fargo due to either "integrity" reasons or someone was hosting, so they got sent here? No big deal. He is a "give our opponent credit" guy and then the next second he is "refs this, refs that" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any word on if all the boys are coming back yet? I am just happy the Wild signed him, maybe he can add some needed offense to their pathetic team.

Not knowing much about QU, I was surprised that fans of both teams were cheering for the Sioux over QU. I've messaged with a certain media member from out East about his disdain for Pecknold. Also, this picture seems to indicate Union fans were cheering for us as well.

Then he played him anyway. It's hard to explain without going through the work of looking up the specific quotes, but it was just douche-baggy. Like, just say straight up if you aren't certain. But he swore up and down that there was no way Anas would be on the ice, and low and behold, who was out for the drop of the puck? This year it was post-game comments after the title game. He said how we were the better team, but then he started talking about 3 obvious hits to the head that UND didn't get called on. It was just sour grapes. 1000% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I know Tim Hennessey calls Pecknold by another name because he said he has been stiffed twice in his career on scheduled interviews, once by Red Berenson, and the other Pecknold a year ago at the regionals. Of course, remember when Eddie Schultz was stiffed by Blais and the resulting meltdown he had. Sometimes some other things come up that are more important, although I would hope that apologies are offered in such circumstances, and who knows if that is part of the reason for the less than glowing reviews.

For a team that only has come on lately they sure have alot of Easterners that don't like them. Never heard that kind of talk when Union played the Gophers in Philadelphia. From what I could decipher, the majority of the BC crowd was cheering for Union. And everybody I spoke with at the tourney were going for Union.

runaroundsioux Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Every BC and BU fan I talked to in Tampa said they were cheering for us. They did not like QU. Found this odd as BC had never played Q before Thursday in Tampa.Felt bad (not really) not being able to tell the BC fans I would cheer for them.

Too bad, would like to see him stay, but he also wouldn't be the biggest loss we've had. Would be sweet to see Ladue decide to stay. Regardless, I think both Shaw and Wolanin will step up nicely next year. I though Wolanin looked really good early in the year, then sort of level off and blended in; hopefully having a season under his belt will really help him. I could see him stepping up into a Stecher type role as far as being an offensive defenseman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
