Denver at MTU - Friday - 10/28/11

Re: Denver at MTU - Friday - 10/28/11

Eh. What can you say? Gwoz rolls how he rolls...

There's a difference between the team not forechecking and the coach burying his guys by pulling the goalie for 3 unanswered goals. That's just flat-out brainless.
 
Re: Denver at MTU - Friday - 10/28/11

OK. How many in-season, post-season and National Championships does he have? How many national coach of the year awards?

I'd walk out. I have a serious problem with some dink having a Napoleon complex and burying his own guys. That's unnecessary,

Gwoz coached two teams to back to back NCs. Calling him brainless? Of course, Herb Brooks was considered brainless for some of his tactics leading up to the 1980 olympics. Good statement by you though. lol.

I had sex a couple years ago. Does that make me an expert?

And you support SCSU? Yeah, Craig Dahl wasn't brainless or anything...LOL...and Motzko is a Gwoz protege.

Where did I mention anything to do with any of that, he just sounds like a complete dick.

Perhaps, before you embarrass yourself on this forum any more than you already have, you go and research some of the tactics coaches have used over decades of hockey to motivate their team. I'll even give you a starting point where some, like you, would have considered a complete dick. Please go watch the movie "Miracle" that covers one Herb Brooks' coaching of the 1980 US Hockey Olympic team. Some consider this the "Miracle on Ice" and hence the name of the movie. Also, Herb Brooks was the coach of the Minnesota Gophers hockey team at the time.

So you support Gwoz intentionally embarrassing his team? That's neat of you.

I do because I trust Gwoz's instincts. If he felt this is what was needed to "wake up" his team, then heck ya. This team has the talent to be great. Gwoz is trying to teach them that working hard is just as, if not more, important. And they were embarrassing our goaltending by not playing the right way. I think he might have got the team's attention.

So instead of trying to rally the troops when they were down 4-1, he instead buried them. Yeah...that's great leadership.
