This guy would be better...

That guy's good but I don't know that he's really any better than Shuey's post game. Tough call.

Time for a change? Uh yes. 0-8 is unacceptable by any standard.

I know we lost last night but we played well.

Whatever it takes to remove Eaves at this point.

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?

Here's the thing. I think you guys have an above average fanbase. Which you shouldn't take as a knock on you or really anyone else on this board. You strike me more as a Gopher football type of fanbase. You'll show up when you are good but even when you're good you probably aren't first, second, or even third on anyone's priority list.

I mean look at your games now. You have what? A dozen fans or so show up to an average game? OK, that was a cheap shot but your attendance the last few years has been atrocious. Even when you were up Gopher fans could get good seats from the box office. I understand you are down but at the same time Minnesota still drew fans when we had a ****ty run.

I don't know, by that definition, I think the only team that would qualify as having a good/great fan base would be North Dakota, and I'd say Minnesota is just above average too. I've been to final 5's in years where MN wasn't a top seed (but was still there), and the attendance was notably lower (despite whatever BS attendance figures Red Baron was throwing out there), even in what amounts to your "home" city. Furthermore, even in your down years, you didn't start 0-8…I'm not at all sold that your fan base is that much better (or better hockey fans - MN fans never show up to tourney games after being eliminated; whereas the ND fans show up for other games anyway and travel far better).

I an sick of excuses, time for a change.

Eaves uses every excuse in the book. He didn't fix the uneven classes, underachieving year after year, and now we have this 0-8 debacle, & boeser is gone.

Season ticket holders and fans deserve better.

Than the WI fanbase? Lulz. What you've just said...

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?

I just don't understand how a team with the heritage of Wisconsin can be this bad for this long....

Has Eaves lost the locker room?

What gives?

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?

For this long? They were solid last year.

Everyone has known the badgers would suck this year for a LONG time, and I was questioning why there wasn't more of a panic when the recruiting gaps were still huge (around the end of last summer even).

There was definitely at least a bit of a panic around here.

Re: Fire Mike Eaves?

Eaves' last contract extension is still a mystery to me.
