One point that FreddietheFalconBG brought up that is actually interesting is the assistant coaches. Lord knows we've had a number over the last few years. How much credit/blame do you give them? Or do you really think it just boils down to the head man?

I remember the good old days, when I was the poster child for poor spelling and fractured grammar.

So, when does the football team play Michigan next year?

freddiethefalconBG makes MACMAN's posts look like they were written by Walt Whitman...

ftfBG, you stated that this is "not a personal vendetta against Coach Paluch." Well then what is it? I mean, what you're describing...not donating until he's gone, asking for his head on a silver platter...sounds like the definition of a personal vendetta. You hate the guy...that's pretty clear...and your actions and posts are directly correlated to that hatred. Let me put this in terms you might understand...Dude, you've got a freakin' personal vendetta on this bro.

i am concerned about the players. i could give two s**t's about Paluch. i just hate to see a school, program, town, and fans that i love suffer because of him.

You guys just do not undrstand the effect that this guy has his players. he is unable to teach players how to play to the best of there potential. That is what a coach needs to be able to do and he can not do that.

A prime example is Kevin Bieksa. All these pro scouts could not believe how he flew under the radar the way he did. Now the kid is a top defensman in the NHL and signs a multi million dollar deal.

I would bet my life that he could care less to ever talk to Paluch again.

this is no personal vendeta. just extremely concerned about the players and the uture of this program. As are all of the guys that i played with.

sorry for not capitalizing. i have more important things to do than worry about if i spelt something wrong or didnt capitalize. i dont plan on getting graded on this sight.

Dude, you took time more time explaining why you did not capitalize than it would have taken you to capitalize!

And I'm sorry, but I have to question your judgment if you think Kevin Bieksa is a "top" defensemen in the NHL.

He was 256 out of 289 defensemen in the NHL with a -11 rating. He was 137th in scoring with 12 points. And he was 24th amongst defensemen in the NHL with a whopping 90 penalty minutes in only 34 games which was by far the worst ratio in the league for the amount of games he played!

Bieksa's a stud. Don't judge him by this year's statistics; he suffered a bad injury.

Maybe, just maybe, Pooch learned something from the assistants last season.

freddiethefalconBG · Post by **freddiethefalconBG** » Thu May 08, 2008 4:36 pm

Yes Bieksa did suffer a bad injury, a skate sliced threw his calf and achilles tendon.

When you sign a 3 year deal for over 10 mill. i would say you are a top guy.

Poochface learned nothing from Rierden, he just realized that Rierden is a much better coach than he is and let him run the show cause he knows his ass is on the line. How long do you guys think Rierden will stick around without getting the head coaching job. it would be a shame to see him leave and loose out on the oppurtunity to have a head coach of his calibur.

Drago · Post by **Drago** » Thu May 08, 2008 8:30 pm

Move on. The arguments are the same every time. Pooch is dumb, Reirden is the best. Great, we got it.

DRAGO,

if you don't like the topic of conversation than too bad, don't read the thread. i could care less what you think.

FIRE POOCH!

REIRDEN FOR HEAD COACH!

So your level of caring could go down.

I couldn't care less if you find this insulting.

By the way, ftfBG, Bieksa scored nearly twice as many points in two seasons under Paluch in fewer games than he did under Buddy Powers. I'm also puzzled by your statement that scouts said he "flew under the radar" since he was drafted after his first season at BG.

freddiethefalconBG · Post by **freddiethefalconBG** » Fri May 09, 2008 11:59 am

You obviously do not know what you are talking about. bieksa should have scored more because he was an upperclassman. your suppose to increase scoring each year.

Yes he was drafted but was not a top prospect. he was drafted 5th or 6th round when he was a freshman. Paluch never gave him any credit and never talked him up. the only people that paluch new how to talk up was the sigalet's. Jordan definately deserved to be talked up. he is the best goalie i have ever played with and an even better teamatte. however his brother was a little jerk off that nobody on the team liked. It is funny how Poochface loved talking up Jonathan and never gave bieksa any credit. i guess bieksa get's the last laugh because he is making millions playing in the NHL and Jonathan is playing in the AHL. he might get a few call ups here and there but he will never come close to being the calibur player that bieksa is.

take advice from someone who was his teamatte and his friend. His coaches did say he flew under the radar and they could not understand how he did because he is such a great player.

rood · Post by **rood** » Fri May 09, 2008 12:31 pm

So, was it his coaches or the scouts who said Bieksa flew under the radar? I like how you change your story when presented with a reasonable argument.

freddiethefalconBG · Post by **freddiethefalconBG** » Mon May 12, 2008 11:20 am

Both,

you people just do not get it. in the next few weeks you will all here about somethig that i guess will come as a shock to most of you however it was no suprise for me. some of you won't be suprised by it.

But it will definately give a real reality check to the Hockey program, that's for sure.
