I'm not a doomer, I like our current team and believe we can pull it off. If I had to make on critique, it's that we are not a heavy in your face team.

sparky8701 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 1 hour ago, Irish said: We were once upon a time this season - still trying to figure what happened to that team. The regression of our defense is stunning - especially with the addition of a new defensive coach. At one point we were very difficult to play against. In part I think in part it's a trade-off for Kunz recent success. I've been pumping his tires for awhile, always thought he had more to show offensively. His net front-front presence has been great and he took Johannes spot in the top of the lineup and ran with it. But he plays a different kind of game than he did further down the depth chart, and we've definitely missed some of that heavy play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Per Buccigross on selection show yesterday; for certain, Ben Clymer is doing color, which is unfortunate. As for PxP, think I heard Clay Matvick is the guy, but am not certain on him. If so, he does a fine job in my opinion. Hopefully we will hear more of him than Clymer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Wilbur Posted March 25 Popular Post Share Posted March 25 ESPN needs to figure out a way to get Ben Holden back on the mic for the NCAA tournament games. Put him and Starman in a region together. Or wait, just put Leah Hextall on so we can just mute the game. 2 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heinert will come in far more prepared and educated than half of these guys. 1 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure there will be some Michigan fans, not sure how well Western or State travel for hockey. It would be really nice to own the state of Michigan by Sunday.

SiouxFanSince1990 Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 2 hours ago, Bleedn Green said: The road to a Natty this year looks to be the most difficult of possibilities. Start with Michigan then either State or Western to get out of the regional. That only gets you to potentially face BC then either BU or Denver in a final. I LIKE IT!!! Legendary stuff. If they win it, I’d say it’s the most convincing championship team ever. If. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightingsioux4life Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 If the team shows zero energy and plays terrible and loses this coming Friday, I think the coaching staff needs to look at what might be causing these late-season slumps. It has happened more than once. You cannot win 26 games (some of them Top 10 teams) if you are "not that good". Something is causing this, but I have no idea what it is. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has happened more than once. You cannot win 26 games (some of them Top 10 teams) if you are "not that good". Something is causing this, but I have no idea what it is. You've said this a couple times, but maybe we can define it? What defines a "late-season slump" for you? Two months? One month? let's take a look further: 23-24: Went 4-3 in March, swept in Omaha a week after winning the Penrose. I can see this as being a slump for a team with 26 wins. Still can right the ship -- Verdict: Slump 22-23: Played their best hockey down the stretch, IMO. 5-2-2 in their last 9 games after being swept by DU. Missed tourney. Verdict: No slump 21-22: 10-4 in Feb and March, but lost in Frozen Faceoff semis, and lost first round of NCAAs to Notre Dame in OT. Verdict: No slump 20-21: 9-2 in Feb and March. Lost 5OT game to UMD. Verdict: No slump 19-20: 12-4-2 in the second half, won the Penrose, won last game after being 6-2-1 in Feb, Mar. World shut down. Verdict: No slump 18-19: Bad all year 17-18: Mediocre year, 5-5-2 in Feb, Mar. Won their last game, oddly enough, against UMD in the Frozen Faceoff third place game. Verdict: Slump 16-17: February they weren't good going 2-4, but they won 5 straight to win in March before losing in Frozen Faceoff semis and having an OT loss, which I don't think was a loss, to BU in the NCAAs. Verdict: No slump 15-16: Ended pretty good. Verdict: No slump So, 2 slump ending to seasons in 10. Thoughts? Personally, I think there are plenty of normal explanations. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
