Dude look at yourself in the mirror, are you proud of what you've become? Did Powers take your virginity? Get off his pole.

I get it, you take to a personal attack on me to blow off your frustrations. I was getting worried that you were about to have a stroke over this, but I see you venting, blowing off steam helps. What's the name of your lynch mob, the "Guilty until Proven Innocent Wild Bunch"?

Yes, objective and following English code of justice, not the guilty until proven innocent code.

Boy I wanna live in your la la land, the facts are one of your players is in his death bed, because of your former head coach and your "athletic trainer, also former". To be the kind of person that defends those responsible for this, I can't fathom.

To be a Head Coach at a Division I program is a privilege. No one is implying Guilty until Proven Innocent, because we’ll leave that for the Court System over the next 2-5 years. ASU will see the inside of lawyer’s offices and courtrooms on a regular basis. Simply put, Greg Powers was the head of a program that experienced a colossal failure that led to severe injury, that will likely result in death. Coach Powers will never lead a collegiate program again. He may scout, or find an administrative job in hockey, but he will never again be trusted with programmatic control.

I'll wait until the civil and criminal lawsuits reveal testimony under oath rather than make judgement based on hearsay, allegations, half-truths. To be the kind of person that convicts others based on such smells of lynch mob mentality.

You don't seem bothered that a kid from the program is basically dead lying in a hospital bed. Strange.

If you think you're taking some sort of moral high road here, let me assure you, you're not. The discovery process in litigation is not going to be kind for Greg Powers.

It's a shame that this cesspool of a school, administration, and hockey program failed upward and just landed David Hakstol as head coach.

I see you're putting your narrative into my reply. Of course it bothers me. I'm not the one taking the moral low road here. I have not doubts the discovery process is not going to be kind to Powers, I've been involved in lawsuits several times. You end up making a very broad statement about a highly rated organization because of a single incident, not very rational.

Easy there.. please wait until the civil and criminal lawsuits reveal testimony under oath rather than make judgement based on hearsay, allegations, half-truths..

Exactly what I have been stating. Discovery processes in potential lawsuits are always harsh, but that is the intent of such.
 
Side story to Hakstol becoming head coach at ASU: In 2015 UND hosted the Fargo Regional. Hakstol and team showed up at a nice steak house, Cork & Cleaver in Fargo. My wife and I were having dinner there also and we recognized Dave on the way out the door. I got him aside, wife got a picture with him while I asked him to add his weight to the NCHC conference committee to get ASU an invitation to join. Well he shortly thereafter left for the job at the Flyers. Fast forward to now, ASU is in the NCHC with Hakstol at the coach.......funny world sometimes......
