Oldguy Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 The boys had a real "buzz" several times in yesterday's game. That was great to see, as the exhibition game didn't seem to have any of that. I'm cautiously optimistic about the season after seeing how they can play when they show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiouxScore Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 Thought it was a much more aggressive engaged effort all around last night. Definitely some things to clean up specifically in the defensive zone and need to be stronger with some of the passes in the neutral zone.

Wilbur Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 That middle frame before 13 and 25 couldn't break the puck out to save their lives was fun to watch. Bubbs sensed it and just rolled the top three. Boisvert was just a man out there. Wilkie and Mac got good cycles going with James and Providence didn't have an answer. Mac made a pass off the wall in the third that if it was finished it's an NCHC play of the year candidate. I think Boisvert has all the makings to be the league ROY. Heavy shot and the ability to create space. I'm excited to see him get plenty of opportunities on the PP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talent-wise they can roll with anyone, but like you said, it's a matter of them consistently showing up. It took a late shot on net (on TJ) yesterday to wake the guys up, before that they didn't seem very engaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Such humble great guys and the boys on the ice played well to boot Hobnobbing with the Sioux aristocracy, I see. Sounds like you had a blast. Who is Hakstol with there?

Was there - they absolutely dominated neutral zone second period on. I like the second period team that established forecheck and possessed the puck as well.

.357 Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 Haha thanks for sharing that. Gino, the man who revived Sioux hockey & elevated it to the top tier. I shudder to think where the program would be today if he never came along. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The “hockey experts” in our fan base nearly rioted when Tom Clifford overruled Carl Miller’s choice of Ned Harkness as head coach and gave the job to Gino. One guy set up a table in Gamble Hall trying to get people to sign a petition to force Clifford to reconsider his decision. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post .357 Posted October 14 Popular Post Share Posted October 14 It's not relevant to the thread, but then again, Gino is synonymous with Sioux hockey, so ... From a Schlossman article in 2013, quoting Dave Hakstol: “The things that stand out to me: He was very prepared but he demanded that his players were very prepared. And he demanded that his players competed at a high level. He was able to motivate people within a program to be able to do that. I think that’s why he was so successful.” Gino had that natural elixir that got the most out of his players, he demanded excellence & his players responded with 3 national championships; it easily could have been a few more. He is the benchmark by which all other coaches at UND are & will continue to be measured. 1 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
