I'd have to rewatch that incident to see if your recollection is closer to what actually transpired or if petey is closer.

That said, if most of the posters on here are biased to the boys in green, usually your bias (when it comes to officiating) is biased to the opposing team.
I don't think the refs are "out to get Kleven" by any stretch, but I've certainly seen many instances where he takes some punishment with nothing called and then he gets called for something very similar shortly after.  He's a big boy and is very strong on his skates.  Was it this year or last year when the refs reviewed for a major when an opposing player ran into the back of Kleven and they called Kleven for a penalty?  It was checking from behind...from behind.  That was comical to say the least.

Then you completely agree with my entire point in this conversation.

Thinking it won't matter because Kleven will be a Senator soon.:lol:

I have a feeling Frisch is back.  He's a get your masters type kid.  If he's back let it ride with 4, 24, and the frosh d men, although likely one lefty d man on the way from the portal.

Two portal goalies if Hedquist is staying in the BCHL.  If he's coming then you've got to be sure your Portal guy can play 20 plus games. 

Wonder how much scholarship dollars 32 gets?  If we can tell Calder we don't have money available we can tell that to him as well I'd think.

Had both of them played in today's game their penalty minutes would have doubled.  The physical part of the game has been taken out by the NCAA.   Kleven hasn't adjusted game to what is and isn't allowed and put himself in the position he was in.

The physical game is called much different now than it was for either of those guys.

Agreed on Kleven, for sure.
I have a feeling both Frisch and Gaber will come back.  No inside info on either, just a hopeful hunch.
Hedquist had a better 2nd half, so potential for him to come in next season I suppose rather than 2 portal goalies.

At the moment the portal goalie options are not great. Hopefully the selection improves after more teams are eliminated. Because right now I think I’d take my chances with Hedquist.

Berry has to adapt to the newer style of play. Plain and simple. He has to let the skill players play and deal with some of the D breakdowns/learning curve. He has a couple skill guys coming in, they both have to play. If we stick with this chip and chase style of play I’m afraid he won’t make it another year or two.

Look at Minnesota this year they had some rough moments defensively with some of their young forwards but you have to accept it and let them grow through it.They might give up an opportunity but they are gonna generate a heck of a lot offensively too.

I'll say...

If 15 comes back, we're top 10 in PWR.
If 15 doesn't come back, we're a bubble team but I still bet we'd make the NCAAs.

Whoaaaaa Nellie if they DON’T make the NCAA’s next season.  That “Boo Berry” thread will be LIT!

Sounds like how Blake was treated.

I don't know where BB's contract sits, but next year will be pivotal in a LOT of people's minds, including those who have stood by him.

Berry signed a new deal that will keep him under contract with the school through the 2025-26 season. Berry's previous contract, a five-year deal, was set to run out in June 2023.

Berry will make a base salary of $450,204 beginning next season and will receive 3 percent raises each year for the remainder of his contract. He also has numerous incentives in his contract — winning the Penrose Cup (8 percent of base salary), hosting playoff games (2 percent), winning NCAA tournament games and team academic benchmarks (6 percent) to name a few — that could push the value higher.

I put Berry and Sather in the same category in 2023-24: We're watching ... tick-tock ...

Agree on Kleven (burn a year on the ELC if you can). 

I pray you're right on Frisch. I'd run him and 4 and 24 and 5 freshmen also. Got a name on this "lefty D" you assume? And a lefty D would stun me.*

I'd bring in two goalies no matter what, be they both portal or portal + HH. I'd tell 32 it's up to him if we run 3 or 4 G in the fall. 


Left shot D (in-house or pipeline): Moore Bast Benoit Jubenvill Wiebe Livanavage Ausmus Strathmann McInnis
Right shot D (in-house or pipeline): Frisch(?) and Komzak 
assumed five in coming freshmen are bold; we need right shot D

Next season starts by the coaches forcing themselves and their team to watch the NCAA selection show today and knowing they all had a hand in us watching rivals being seeded in what should have been our regional.  Maybe they will work this off-season to correct that.

They should also be forced to watch all of the Gopher, Michigan, and Denver playoff games to see what teams with talent and speed look like.  However, if looking at our goalie situation doesn't dial them in I don't know what will.  It's been a long long time since I have seen a Sioux Hockey coaching staff flounder this much.

Interesting that “extending the consecutive winning seasons streak” and “saying the word ‘culture’ more than 100+ times a season in post-game interviews” weren’t also written into the bonus clause section.

Bubs if @Irish gets his way ...

And the Swede is in the portal.  Two new goalies for sure, one of them Hedquist.

This is a good move by the Coaching staff. Hedquist / Portal Goalie is the way to go next year.
