Dane Jackson named head coach

[brianvf]

Almost double Herter's salary and get him on over to GF.

I haven’t seen the press conference what were the bullet points of the vision for the program if someone would be kind enough to indulge me?

Why not just screenshot the whole article if you're going to steal so much of it anyway.

That's a good tip, I'll be sure to give that a whirl next time.

Assuming Herter got a nice raise with Fersch's new contract.

Would $250k get him here as Associate Head? I like that they aren't rushing that hire.

Car washes too right?

Then Simpson would be his asst defensive sidekick. Agree that Herter would be a big bonus, but maybe an asst who pushes a modern offense for a team stuck in dump-&-chase mode would be better suited.

"We will have a hard-nosed, accountable environment where everybody meets the standard," Jackson said. "We’re going to commit to a no-excuses process. Our promise is we’ll outwork, outcompete and outprepare opposition. Every practice, every workout, every meeting, we’ll pay attention to the details and commit to the work."-DJ

He's also emphasizing culture a lot like the previous regime.

Well he sure ain't going to be able to afford them on a paltry 180k salary....   

180k guys can maybe afford Holiday washes.... not Rydell washes, that's for the beet farmers and Vineyard  crowd

Watched the interview Jackson did with Taylor Budge, honestly more excited about him now, just a different voice gives me some optimism.

Berry had gotten quite stale so this is nice at least for now.

[SIOUXELEVENS]

I like how he keeps repeating they will play fast and hard , hopefully his message gets through to the players

Jax at the Force game tonight.

Thank you. So it’s not really a plan, it’s just what most coaches say they want of their athletes.

If UND hires Chyzyk as many hope, and have retained Simpson, having an on-ice coach to work with the forwards might be the way to go.  If they want someone to demonstrate that work ethic and hard nosed play, Brad Malone could be a very good fit.  Years in the NHL, and now experience coaching in Major Juniors would give them another recruiting angle.  That would be a pretty well rounded staff. Be interesting to see when Oshawa’s season ends.

I'd like the assistants to have a combined coaching experience of 10 years not 3 with Simpson (2), Malone (1) and Chyzyk (0, he's been a scout and GM for 6).

How much coaching experience did Carle have when hired by DU?

No, he became an assistant basically out of college, and he didn’t really ever play in college.  I’m sure Malone’s long NHL career he has learned from tons of coaches, nevermind tricks of the trade he could pass on to the forwards.  I would call that real world experience.  He is very well respected veteran, and I suspect would get that kind of respect from the players as well.

It's not like Malone would be in charge of line-ups, recruiting, discipline or setting the overall tone of the program like Jackson is..simply helping the forwards elevate their games & incorporating a more puck-controlled offense.

When are you going to publish your opinion piece in goons world ??

I just did, it's been a busy week.

I listened to the presser again today; there was much to digest. F, yeah, comes to mind. Jackson is intense. He's going to work hard every day, and he expects the same from his coaches and players. Playing on a sports team is a lot like battling with your battle buddies. I don't feel they had that this year. It seemed like they had 23 guys going all different directions. You can't have people going in different directions. The culture is going to change.
