    Just read Todd's article on the season ending summary.

    There will be no coaching changes. Two new goal tenders coming in. They need a goalie coach IMO. Howard would help but I think that ship sailed. As for the rest of the staff they will be tweaking the systems but who knows what that means.

    Defense must improve a lot to compete in the Big 10 next year.

    When you combine the last few Eaves years and now the past 3 seasons its been quite some time since the product on the ice has been excellent.

    Expect season tix to take a big hit again. The program seems to be going in circles.

      This article is infuriating: https://madison.com/wsj/sports/colle...127cb4481.html

      I wanted to scream when I read it. I am sending an email to Jason King. I will be polite, but I can't believe the comments made in the article.

        Agreed. I’m going to send an email as well. I don’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on a program going nowhere.

        If the quotes represent a true assessment from the coaches, they’re delusional.

        One would think most D1 coaches could coax 20 wins from this roster and a gaa Of 3.00 or under.

        I’ve never as a fan EVER gone into the offseason thinking the following:

        A. Thank god there aren’t any more games
        B. I want the coaches and about 3 players to move on

        What a terrible malaise the program is in. Csn’t Wait to watch Nodak tie Michigan with 9 titles and someone can cry to us about parity in college hockey or some other “bush league psychout stuff” :

            Oh... it's Patrick Khodorenko... not our guy yet.


            Always liked Khodo's game a lot. Glad we don't have to play that kid anymore.
            You've got that right, Wisko. Earlier this season I tweeted to Posick that it seemed like Khodorenko was in the league for 6 years. He is a ****ing stud. He'll do fine in the 'chel.

            I'll hop on the bus and email King as well.

            I was AT LEAST hoping that Strobel would get released to show some kind of "change". I would've liked to have seen that occur and hire a coach that is primarily a goaltender coach but could help in other areas. I don't think they need 3 FULL TIME "player" coaches.

            No mention of Noah Grannan for the following year scares me and regarding Mr. Garrity, he'll be the next Johan Blomqvist.

            Full disclosure, I'm off the season ticket renewal again and ALREADY setting aside those funds for the NHL next year. I'm back where I was 4 years ago. Fairweather fan? Nope. Like many of you, I've done my time over a few decades for Badger season tickets. As a fan, I've never seen an 8+ year schitt show like this, and with NO improvements. As I wrote a few days ago, I don't have SUCKER written on my forehead any longer.

              Unbelievable, but not really. If TG was Bob Smith who coached in the USHL and D3 for 20 yrs prior to taking over the UW program and he put up the results of the last 4 years, he would be gone.

              It's over, there is little hope other than Rowe can have a save % around .91 and the 3 F forwards can be defensively responsible, create some scoring chemistry and maybe have a positive impact in the locker room.

                  Wisconsin hockey hour from last night. "Interesting" listen. What I heard: a lot of excuses around goalies and being young.

                      Obviously, the season didn’t go as expected with the kind of talent you have (I’m a BU fan, I get it). Some of these one-and-dones are frustrating. But any objective appraisals of Miller’s NHL potential would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

                        Wisconsin’s GAA just decreased from about 3.8 to 3.0🤣🤣🤣

                          Did anyone else find it interesting that no frills defensive-minded Emberson was given an "A" near the end of the season? I do think that is a sign the coaches see what needs to change. Thoughts? Why else would they have done it? Do you really need three captains at all times? Some years I'm not even sure they have had three.

                            Yes I saw it somewhere, maybe in the all access video. I am not sure how much to read into it, but he certainly is my favorite defender to watch work.

                              As to why there was a change with which players had the letters on their sweaters at that point in the season, they made the change when Sean Dhooghe was going to be out for a few weeks. To keep the C/A/A rotation they picked a new third player.
                              As to why they went with that specific player, I do not recall hearing a specific reason.

                                At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
