    I like the way he has been responding. He is taking personal responsibility upon himself for not having the team prepared properly, especially for the mental aspects of their game.

    Not only is he demonstrating by example the attitude that is needed, he also is utilizing a subtle and sophisticated motivational tactic: by blaming himself solely, entirely, and harshly, his players cannot help but react by thinking / saying "hey wait a minute, WE'RE the ones on the ice; he's being too hard on himself, we need to step it up, etc. etc. etc."

        Whether or not it is, my point still stands. Although it's a creative way to booby-trap a tunnel...

          I just saw video of your defenseman LeBoeuf taking an incredible cheap shot in the Dartmouth game on Jason Bourgea. The officials must have been asleep for not giving him a major and a game misconduct. Also surprised the league didn't review the hit and give an additional suspension. Was he trying to show he was a tough guy running a 5'8" player head first through the boards on national tv? That kind of play and lack of discipline has not helped your cause this year.

              Probably DVR'ed it and just got around to watching it. It was on national TV after all.

                  Commissioner Hagwell was at the game!

                              Along with just about everyone else posting here-I saw the entire game. I did not see anything untoward. This is hockey after all and some physicality is expected In fact, I think that our level of physical play has fallen off quite a bit from earlier in the year.
