part of the "fire hak" was that the UND heach coaching job is not a lifetime job appointment....after that amount of time maybe it's time to try someone different?

Okay, I guess I don't recall that specific argument, but that was a while back. Could be?

Fire Berry, fire Goehring, fire the hockey conditioning coach, fire the football conditioning coach, fire Bubba, fire Chaves, fire the MBB coach, fire the WBB coach, we already fired the VB coach (can we fire the new one yet?), I know I'm missing some. Fire 'em all!

The only playoff game we've won since 2016 was last year against American International.   Hakstol never won the big one, but his teams would always be up and ready for the regionals.  I don't think Berry will ever get us back to the Frozen Four.  Tonight was embarrassing to watch.

What's your big beef with Gaber?
He's our best offensive threat (granted, not saying much with this team) as a sophomore.
IMO he has a tremendous upside and potential for his last two (or three) years at UND.  Especially if he gets paired with some players that can complement his speed and higher end skill.
But, hey, if you think he's horrible then that's your opinion.  No worries.

Gaber is our guy going forward, but he needs to use his line mates better and pass when the situation dictates, as ultimately it would open up more space for himself. Sometimes it seems teammates are waiting for a return pass and I sense it is like a black hole that will never be returned.  It is nice to have someone who actually wants to shoot the puck, but it might be a little too predictable.  Have no doubt that Jackson Blake would love to set him up with his passing skill set.

That was the narrative, though.  Hak can’t win the big one. Berry and Jackson are the recruiters, anyway, so let’s turn the keys over to them.

Hopefully we see that for about 20-30 goals next season.  ;)  :)

Does it matter?

Yes, I had an account back then and only posted a couple of times. It was before online viewing and before (or maybe early days of?) listening on Iheart Radio. I was a regular lurker. I tried to recover that account one particular evening (nothing special going on that night, right?) and was unable to, so I started a new one. Then I lurked for a few more years... I finally decided that if I was tired of the piss poor attitude here, I should jump in and contribute.

But now it’s time to run Berry and Jackson out of town!

This has nothing to do with what I wrote but if you want my opinion....

It seems the key is.....

Hak as recruiter.

Berry as coach. 

:) ;)

And I asked how they knew what was going on during that time since they weren't around.

I didn't say if the info was false.

Gotcha.

I guess like he said, it’s possible to be a lurker.  I’m on this site (and was before I had an account) multiple times a day for the past 15 years, but probably have less posts than most of you.

A lot of emotion being shared. Tomorrow, the sun shall rise and we will look forward to next year. There will be calls to fire someone, and burn it all down. I think the simple solution is being overlooked… no one here defines what Sioux hockey is, we just watch it.

Exactly.

There is no need for embarrassment, calling for heads to roll, or declaring things unacceptable. What happened is what happened. It just, is.

Sounds like an embarrassing parental failure. You should be fired! All of UND nation is embarrassed and terribly disgusted by your performance as a UND recruiter. You suck.

When you recruit and land grinders, that’s what you become

24 SOG.........and Gaber had 9 of them. That mean there was 15 SOG between the other 18 skaters. 

BTW....10 SOG if he doesn't crap in his breezers on the penalty shot.

My 3 stars for UND last night 

1) Driscoll: Was the team's MVP the 2nd half of the season and deserved a better fate last night

2) Gaber: One man offensive band again last night

3) Johnson: He scored 

 

Judd and Ethan were not good vs WMU a week ago. Was fully expecting them to be a couple of the team's better players last night.......they weren't.

To be fair, recruiting has been tougher lately as the locker room has aged itself out.  Not much to sell

I also heard that the hot tub temp this season has been lukewarm at best - that’s a sure fire way to scare away recruits.

This was the most pessimistic I ever was going into the playoffs. The entire coaching staff and this group deserves so much credit for punching above its weight class for the year. It was so apparent the last few weeks that the deficiencies at Forward, from an overall talent standpoint had finally caught up to them. The PP was broken, so much to the point that scoring was not realistic, you had to worry more about giving up a SH goal. I still like a lot of the pieces, but talent aside, they picked the wrong time (starting against CC, so entire playoff) to go ice cold.
