Me - ill stick with sioux basher as my title.

I agree, sign him now. They don't need him availale with all the openings now. Have they always treated sandy good. Is he happy there. I've never heard much.

Maturi is a clown, he has screwed so much up. He came in to bassically a top 10 ncaa program. And has left it a lifeless joke. Look at maturis 2 first seasons. Hockey, girls hockey, golf, wrestling. All champs. Even the other sports were pretty good, including fooball.

So, how do we build this team up so they are ready to win the conference and the conference tourney starting in 2013-2014? Cbrooks, does that timeline sound about right? grin

I don't want to see our team be beat by the likes of Penn State, Ohio State, or any large program with Michigan in it's name.

Still no contract extension for Sandy, who has 1 year left on his contract. Talks are still progressing, albeit slowly. Rumor is he hasn't been offered the type of money given to Blashill at Western Michigan. Could remain pretty sticky.

That's surprising. Maybe they have Maturi secretly negotiating his contract? smile

My inside sources wink say its going to happen and he will be made happy. UMD knows what they have in their coach and want to keep him there for a while. Lets hope all the new "big time" recruits they have coming in can help right away.

GO DOGS!

Hope you're right. I understand the funds may be tight, but let's not lowball the guy after such a finish.

Seems like we have some good recruits this year, but maybe not stars. McNeely, Herbert, and Casto could be something in a year or two. I doubt we have any JT Brown's or Jack Connolly's here, but you never know? Here's the incoming freshies:

Matt McNeely, G USA U18 Program, 25 GP, 9-12, 3.82, .893

Chris Casto,D Lincoln (Neb.), 58 GP, 6-19-25

Derik Johnson, D Penticton, British Columbia, 57 GP, 2-7-9

Tim Smith, D Indiana, 60 GP, 5-16-21

Caleb Herbert, F Sioux City (Iowa), 51 GP, 23-27-50

Justin Crandall, F Omaha, 57 GP, 7-16-23

+ one other Forward still to be named (Decowski???)

The following year should be very solid with Adam Johnson from Hibbing and Tony Cameranesi from Wayzata to hopefully anchor the team for the next 3 or 4.

I would guess Krause will come next year with a little more experience. I forgot to mention Andy Welinski hopefully being a big splash in '12/13 as well.

Word is Duluth may be in the running for Zach Hyman (CJHL player of the year) now after Gadowsky left Princeton. He's shopping new colleges. Other front runners are bigger programs: Michigan, BC, and BU. PLEASE make it so. Not gonna get too excited yet, but we could be stacked again in a few.

Looks like Bob finally got the deal done. Similar money to Blashill's base plus advertising. Also similar to the new Wolverine Mich Tech guy. Accoring to Kevin Pates at Rink and Run:

"Minnesota Duluth men’s hockey coach Scott Sandelin signed a five-year contract extension Tuesday through the 2016-17 season. He had one year remaining on his current contract.

Sandelin, 46, will earn a base salary of $235,000, an upgrade of $65,000 after having a base salary of $170,000 in 2010-11. In 11 years with the Bulldogs he is 192-200-46, including 71-40-15 the last three years. UMD has qualified for the NCAA tournament three times in the last eight years with Frozen Four appearances in 2004 and 2011.

“We’ve had a lot of good moments in my 11 years, and the last three years have moved us even further ahead,” said Sandelin. “Now the challenge is to keep moving ahead. It’s not always easy to keep winning, especially when you lose players early, but that’s our challenge.”

UMD finished fourth in the Western Collegiate Hockey Association in the 2010-11 regular season and won the NCAA East Regional and Division I titles, culminating with a 3-2 overtime win against Michigan in the title game April 9 in St. Paul. Sandelin, a Hibbing native, was voted runner up in Division I coach of the year balloting.

“Scott has done a great job in leading this program and we’ve said all along that we’ve wanted him to stay in that position for a long time,” UMD athletic director Bob Nielson said Tuesday.

Contracts for assistant coaches Brett Larson, in his third season, and Derek Plante, in his first, are on a one-year renewable basis and are being reviewed, said Nielson. He expects contracts for Larson and Plante to be signed within the next 30 days.

Larson interviewed last week for the head job with Sioux City (Iowa) in the U.S. Hockey League."

Glad you have a coach. Good for umd. he does have a terrible record, but hy they are in wcha. I'm sure it would be better in another league. Hopefully he can keep building off the recent sucess. I wonder what he wuld have gotten if they wouldn't have won this year. Would they have brought him back. I don't get to watch many of the umd games, so I don't get to see how they are felling about him up there. What's gonna happen without 2 of the top 3 forwards. Hopefully they can reload and stay near the top.

Still no lucia extension.

Getting to the NCAA's for the 3rd time probably would have earned him another contract extension even if they lost in the 1st rd, not sure if he would have gotten much of a raise though. I think the feeling up there is pretty good right now, this took way too long IMO.

Who knows how next year will go for Duluth. They lost the best of the 3 in Mike Connolly. I'd actually put Jack 2nd out of the three. Fontaine was quite the sniper and will be missed. JT will return and move up to 1st line. He was downright beastly in the NCAA's. First line should return strong. Oleksuk will still center the 2nd line. I expect much bigger things out of Basaraba (19 now, true freshman last year). He should be competing for 1st line, but may end up 2nd. Couple of other guys will have to step up. I'd say they have a 50/50 shot of making the NCAA's. I was so pumped to see Duluth being in the running for Zach Hyman, but he seems to be leaning towards BU or BC now.

Lucia's contract extension...How long will this whole saga go on?

It never ends. I wish we could get an update. None of the assistants have been resigned yet either. Id love for all of them to be canned, doubt it tho. I think a lot of it has to do with getting a new president and the hopefull firing of maturi

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.

      I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.

      Problems with Yetti

      By rundrave · Posted

      reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
