UND at UW: Let's get hostile, let's get abusive

Re: UND at UW: Let's get hostile, let's get abusive

I know I should have the sense to leave this alone, but . . . well. The question is not whether coaches teach hits like the two that resulted in majors Friday night. Kids have been taught to make those hits since they were 10. The question is whether coaches can teach players not to make those hits in light of new rules enforcement. They have to unteach old hockey hitting rules so their teams can play full strength in a faster, more dangerous era. I've been critical of Sioux players for playing dumb, but those two hits were not malicious. Gurt's comments after Friday's game are spot on, IMO.

Excellent result for the Sioux this weekend. Very dominating defensively, and Dell played very well.
Let's see if they can carry that momentum with them to UNO..

Exactly.I mean 43-16 in shots? That is what I call getting taken behind the shed.Sioux outplayed them in every department and last night played disiplined after friday nights fiasco of reffing. Huge series with the Balzers team coming up.

Re: UND at UW: Let's get hostile, let's get abusive

obviously since Wisconsin scored two goals all weekend and got dominated in every aspect of the game, including the PP where they spent a lot of time, it's the Sioux's fault for being a goon team and Hakstol is the meanest man in the world.

Or Wisconsin fans should just admit the Sioux were the better team this weekend, are the better team this year, and Wisconsin is not that good.

As for the first part of the bolded, I haven't seen any Wisconsin fan NOT admit that. As for the second part, that is yet to be determined. Sioux fans should know better than any that how you're playing in November isn't always a good indication of how things will go in March.

We'll be fine and hopefully learn from this. Most of our team is underclassmen and if they stay, these results will be flipped in two years.

Congrats on your EPIC weekend. I'm sure you'll be telling you and your sister's children about this in years to come.

You should admit that you're a d-o-u-c-h-e-b-a-g who sucks at life.

The fiasco where they got every call right? Is that the fiasco you're referring to?

The only fiasco was your team's undisciplined play. Your team can be very good if they stay out of the box. Even Hakstol admitted the same.

I am very smart after all.


Seriously though, good that there are other sane posters out there, on either side.

I'm talking the 2 DQ's that were a joke. Believe me being a lifelong Sioux fan I know all to well how their undisiplined play can bite em in their ***.

Re: UND at UW: Let's get hostile, let's get abusive

You seem to be forgetting the cheap hack that Craig Smith put on DU forward Zucker earlier this year

Nobody has forgotten anything that Smith does, and as an avid reader of out thread, you know that most of us have called him on it. None of us likes his moments of insanity.

I'm not one who calls your program cheap, but it's hard to flip the argument based on one mentally unstable player on the Badgers. Smith is not right, in the head.

Your coach didn't think they were a joke. In today's hockey, like it or not, coz it really doesn't matter whether you like it or not, those are easily DQ's.

Agreed. It sucks because they weren't necessarily "bad" hits, but every ref in the country would have called them majors with dq's.

UND is a Goon Squad and Wisconsin is filled with reincarnated Catholic Saints. Fine. When can we get a video of Craig Smith going cuckoo for Coco Puffs? I want to see that hit again.

I found this on Facebook this morning. The commentary is a bit foul.

Hakstol was on TV before Friday night's game saying that the Sioux have sometimes been their own worst enemy this season. And then they went out and proved it by taking two major penalties. They managed to win in spite of that. In his post-game comments, Hakstol clearly was not happy about the penalties.

I hope that by now UND's players realize that they are a much better team when they focus on playing their game. With the personnel they have, they should be playing a man up far more often than they're playing a man down.

Re: UND at UW: Let's get hostile, let's get abusive

Eaves didn't let smith play another minute of the game after that...if that tells you what kind of a coach he is, he doesn't tolerate bs, and that was a childish act by C. Smith borne out of frustration cause he either didn't get a shot or just from the weekend as a whole

I'm interested in this theory. Is diving BS? I seem to remember him tolerating that just fine.

In all honesty I don't think what he did can be explained with just frustration. I would question mental stability. I think it would be in his best interest to get evaluated for the safety of himself and others around him.

Re: UND at UW: Let's get hostile, let's get abusive

I recall one play where a Badger had the puck and a NoDak player literally speared him right in front of the ref and there was no call).

The UW player should have embellished more, then the ref might have called it.

Its pretty pathetic for any NoDak fan to whine about goonish hits. Your team wrote the book on goonery.

Um, I wasn't whining about the hit, I was "refreshing his memory" after his comment that UW hadn't taken out any players this season.
Hockey is a contact sport, any hit could take out a player.
Especially if that hit is from a UND player, since every hit is pure goonery with Sioux players evidently.

I love how Blood is almost laughing at him after the play stops.
