Eddie, How could you say he's not to be part of the blame, it's his team isn't it? I would also agree with putting blame on the players but somebody has to be the adult here and take over. Do we want to mention the program picture that was originally put out too? I will reserve my comments about Sag...

Sager has completely lost control of his team. Weird is isn't it? (Insert sarcasm here).

The suspension will really hurt the Bears. The lack of adult supervision this year has been embarrassing.

Sampair has been declared ineligible to play high school hockey for WB this season. :lol: He has went on to the MJHL to play for the Minnesoat Ice Donkeys (aka Wildcats). As for Sager......Barry will refrain from commenting on his behavior until after Thanksgiving. It's too early to start, isn't it?

Does anyone know Sager's record against Hill???

Fishy, I hope your date ended better than the game did!

Fishy, I'm disappointed in you. Picking a woman over a great hockey game! I thought I taught you better than that. Oh well, sometimes you have to learn the hard way. The Bears "should" win this game due to the losses that Hill has had this year (players not games) but we all know that the ...

73 - correct me if I'm wrong here but your glorious Bantam A squad finished 4th in D2 and went 1-2 in playoffs and are currently getting their golf clubs out of the shed. With Roseville, WB and Stillwater all finishing above them (and in the same section) what would make me think Tartan is the team ...

Knock, knock, knock......hello......It's Barry!!!! I hear what your saying buzzershot and I agree with you. And yes Karl, this topic has been covered but I'm not sure it should ever really go away. Not until "he" does. To keep Karl happy I'll stay off that subject for a little bit......the...

I don't believe "it's fun" is a strong enough argument to consider having a state tourney at the squirt level. What does a squirt state tourney accomplish? Fun for the kids or bigger ego's for the parents and adult coaches?? I don't believe that the kids sitting on the bench while the &quo...

Medley, After reading your post I know who your WB contact is and I do understand why that person is upset. You always want the best for your own kids. I get that. I also know the kids you are talking about and have coached all three of them. They are excellent kids. You were very correct when sayin...

We should probably leave Taylor Johnson and Jake Hansen out of the conversation seeing as though they both left early to go to juniors....Because of Sager!!! And even if we were to keep them in the conversation why would Sager not allow these kids to come back during Christmas break and skate with t...

All I sling is the truth and if you don't want to hear the truth....I'm sorry. And yes, Sager has made it to the dance 2 times but no that is not 2 more times than me. If we speak of respective levels in which we coach than I've got him by quite a few. You see, these kids are succeeding at the youth...

What does it take to be a self-described "hockey people"? Apparentely I have missed the boat on that subject. Sorry I did not play in the NHL and my playing resume' may not be as grand as all of yours but when the subject at hand is WHY IS WB HOCKEY SO INCONSISTENT then I think, as a "...

mustangman (must be your "real" name), As a youth coach in WB and someone who has been involved with WB hockey for 25+ years it pains me to watch our "top" level not succeed or compete. These kids have learned this game we all love and have succeeded at every level on the way up ...

Does anyone know Sager's record against Hill??? Something along the lines of 0-12!! Didn't the Michigan football coach get fired because he couldn't beat their biggest rival in Ohio State?? Pioneerprideguy has it right. WB should keep the band of misfit coaches around. We'll never have a chance to b...

Could the inconsistency of play be due to something such as preperation???? Hmmm, I think I'm on to something! Spoke with a few players last week and there seems to be a common theme here. I hate to beat a dead horse but at what time do we look into this and do something about it?? Let's look at the...

East, so you know....yes these problems have all been brought to the attention of Sager in a meeting with him and the youth coaches in WB over the summer. In person, face to face, names were out there too. If you think I am alone in how I feel about WB hockey you are badly mistaken. Why is it that S...

This group currently at the varsity level had done very well at the youth level all the way up. There is no reason they shouldn't compete every single game they play. It's embarrassing to see this team practice which then translates to the ice during games. None of it do I blame on the kids. I will ...

Guitar, You are very correct in observing the lack of enjoyment for playing for Sager and his band of misfit coaches. Ask any former player of his and they all react the same. He and his staff do absolutely nothing to get any of their players ready for the next level. Not all of these kids have the ...

It's a coin flip between the 2 teams. They should both easily walk to state this year and should both be favored to win. Edina is in the weakest regional this year by far but they would make it out of any one of the regions this year. I'm looking for nothing less than 10-0 victories for both teams t...

I'm not sure that ranking the entire state is valid anymore now that only 32 teams remain in regions. I understand that Minnetonka is better than Minneapolis Park but it doesn't matter anymore. Park is still playing. Therefore I would only look at the teams that remain and rank them. Edina Green Edi...

I don't like cake either.

Both Edina teams are strong. Possibly the 2 best teams in the state. They do have big numbers but they also have a great program that is producing talent along with those numbers. Personally I think Green is a little stronger but it's very close.

Black by 2. Black is deeper than Orange and it's a typical WB vs. WB game. it will be within one at the end and they may get an empty netter at the end. Should be a great game though!
