Originally posted by FredsDeadFriend View PostIt's possible Stauber, being just a former Goalie and having little experience as a head coach could be screwing up what was a good thing?
But its also possible that he's been involved with the team since 2010, only as an assistant until last year, but maybe he knows the players and knows what was needed?
Conspiracy theory? All the people bashing him on here are doing so in part because they know if the US team wins Gold finally, they can claim they did so in spite of his being the coach? lol
Seems to me former Gopher's make good Olympic hockey coaches, seeing as they led over 50% of the Men's Medal winning teams since 1956.
No
Yes

What a tough time you must have living in a perpetual state of confusion.
Some people may see an inconsistency in saying the director of the women's program is unqualified because of her D3 background while saying a coach from D3 is perfectly qualified
maybe after you use the device you can get back to us and explain why it isn't an inconsistency

Re: 2018 USA Olympic Women's Hockey Team
Yeah, a flashlight might be a better choice, it might help you to discover something you didn’t know was in there, maybe you’ll find somebody or something, perhaps both, I am sure there is plenty of room.
One point in Stauber’s favor is at least he didn’t make the same mistake Stone did and give some BS reason why he cut some players and kept others. He has said nothing as far as I can tell. In fact the only thing I am aware of is that last fall he said he valued creativity.
http://minnesota.cbslocal.com/audio/...-sid-and-dave/ see Sunday 12-24
It was certainly creative the way some of the US blue liners skated from the neutral zone back into the defensive zone in St. Paul, drawing Canadians out of the neutral zone in hot pursuit, I assume to make it easier then for the US to advance through the neutral zone and gain the offensive zone. That Canada forced the blue liner to cough up the puck and get a good shot on goal shouldn’t shed a negative light upon it, I’m sure US players are new to this revolutionary tactic, certainly by the time they get to Korea they will have it perfected. It was certainly creative, something that I’ve never seen before except by the Little Chippers who come out to play between periods at college hockey games

Originally posted by ne7minder View PostTim made his case against Stauber back last spring before the US won the Women's World. His main complaint was the color of sweater Rob wore during his NCAA career. He was quiet after the US won but the recent run of loses to Canada have given him hope that he can see an ex-Gopher fail in a competition every US coach has failed for since 1998.
Despite what I believe is a lack of experience as a head coach, I was and always will be cheering for the US to win the gold medal, no matter who the coach is. Stauber seemed to be doing a fine job (and proving me wrong) up until the decision to abandon the centralization concept and bring in more players, which seems to have lead to a streak of poor play and loses to our arch rival that are concerning, leading many people, just not me, to question or re-question his ability. Obviously he's not going anywhere and I certainly hope they get their act together destroy the competition in a few months.
So for the record, yes, I deeply loathe rodentsota in every single sport, but in international play, we're all on the same team and all wearing the right colors. On USA!Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!
