SpudsSioux Posted June 2, 2023 Share Posted June 2, 2023 I would love to see them add a defensive coach and let KG go back to focusing more on the goaltenders (recruiting and developing). I would think/hope that Smaby is someone they're looking at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post The Sicatoka Posted June 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted June 5, 2023 Another year where half the room will be new to the room. That's not helpful to "culture". Culture is a set of norms and processes and standards. We'll have Miami, Alaska (C), Michigan (A), Mankato, Omaha, Lindenwood, and SHU culture as well as remnants of UND's and whatever flows in with USHL/BCHL guys. Culture: norms, process, standards. Expectations. All created by leadership. That starts at the top, the coaches. Berry had some significant distractions last season (friend dies, mother dies, daughter's business). I wonder what were those impacts on operations. Then again, those are past. Here's hoping for a strong reset top to bottom. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Culture is also part of the process of building a successful team (organization). How players (workers) treat one another, etc. Sometimes, when a team isn't getting the results that it should, a reset of people can help reset the culture too. Perhaps this is also a time for a reset. In a perfect world, all our incoming players bring with them tools that have worked elsewhere, and that can include aspects of culture that can work at UND too. For as long as I can remember, great leaders have been part of UND hockey's success. This is a time for great leaders to step forward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tnt Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 It will be interesting to see who UND picks as their extra coach. Would have been nice to get Nick Oliver, but there are plenty of nice options out there. Does Jason Ulmer get a chance with all the work he has done with UND as a volunteer, or do they go with someone for recruiting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St. Clair or Coltyn Sanderson would be the dark horses. Is Ulmer happy running the academy or does he want more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach Parise on line 1 would be a good option to start getting/attracting large recruits in the MSP & surrounding area. Mold Zpar into a future head coach. This would be a huge marketing boost for the program and school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Zach' getting $833,333.00 annually from the Wild through 2028-29. Why coach when he'll likely pick up another one-year 35+ contract for $1.5M or so like the last season. https://www.capfriendly.com/players/zach-parise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying he wouldn't be, but sometimes star players don't make good coaches, and many times they have no passion to do so. A lot of time away from home after you already did it for your whole NHL career isn't always attractive to some. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brianvf Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 Time to start memorizing the new numbers! Quote Newcomers in bold 1 — Kaleb Johnson, goalie 2 — Bennett Zmolek, defenseman 4 — Jake Livanavage, defenseman 5 — Dane Montgomery, forward 6 — Logan Britt, defenseman 7 — Garrett Pyke, defenseman 8 — Jake Schmaltz, forward 9 — Jackson Blake, forward 10 — Tanner Komzak, defenseman 11 — Griffin Ness, forward 13 — Carson Albrecht, forward 14 — Cameron Berg, forward 15 — Nate Benoit, defenseman 17 — Riese Gaber, forward 18 — Jayden Perron, forward 20 — Keaton Pehrson, defenseman 21 — Ben Strinden, forward 22 — Owen McLaughlin, forward 24 — Michael Emerson, forward 25 — Abram Wiebe, defenseman 26 — Dylan James, forward 27 — Louis Jamernik V, forward 28 — Hunter Johannes, forward 29 — Jackson Kunz, forward 30 — Hobie Hedquist, goaltender 32 — Ludvig Persson, goaltender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianvf Posted June 12, 2023 Share Posted June 12, 2023 https://www.grandforksherald.com/sports/und-hockey/get-to-know-the-2023-24-und-hockey-players-numbers?fbclid=IwAR0TsurxyqjXroUlmpA5X-z7rnDLJqfGn6nfbqU-OX37wyP7F8U9RXFqXHM A few tidbits of info on the numbers: Quote Komzak will be the first defenseman to wear No. 10 since John Spolar in 1954-55. Only two defensemen have ever worn No. 10. The No. 2 has often been worn by big, tough defenders going back to Bill Steenson in the 1950s. That tradition has been passed through the decades with Craig Ludwig wearing it in the 1980s, Dave Hakstol in the 1990s, Matt Greene in the 2000s and Andrew MacWilliam in the 2010s. It now belongs to Bennett Zmolek, who fits the same mold. Michael Emerson is the first forward to wear No. 24 since captain Chris Porter from 2003-07. They play a similar game, too — speedy wingers with physicality. Half of the newcomers will wear the same number they did last year: Britt, Pyke, Benoit, Perron, Pehrson, Hedquist and Persson. No. 14 has been unused the last two seasons. Berg will be the first player to wear it since Jasper Weatherby in 2020-21. This season's unused numbers will be: 3, 16 and 19. This is the second-straight year that 16 will be unused. Ashton Calder was the last to wear it in 2021-22. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
