A bus trip to Bemidji, Minn., was sandwiched in between those two trips. When the Sioux return home from Maine early Sunday morning, they will have already logged 7,410 miles through the first three weeks of the season: Round-trip to Anchorage: 4,460 miles Round-trip to Bemidji: 230 miles Round-trip to Bangor: 2,270 miles *Data courtesy USA Today Travel FRATT TRICK: Senior forward Matt Frattin (Edmonton, Alberta) has emerged as one of the top goal-scorers in the nation and, on Monday, he was rewarded by being named WCHA Offensive Player of the Week for the second time in his career.

Nick Naumenko ( ) Bill Himmelright ( ) Jason Herter ( ) Chay Genoway (2006-present) Chad Mazurak ( ) Mike Stone ( ) Rob Mihulka ( ) The leading scorer among active WCHA defensemen with 93 career points, Genoway is bidding to become only the seventh Sioux rearguard to reach the 100-point plateau. No Sioux defenseman has reached that milestone since Curtis Murphy in With 21 career goals, Genoway needs one more to crack UND s top-10 among defensemen. SIOUX-PER MARIO: The Sioux are all-time when junior forward Mario Lamoureux (Grand Forks, N.D.) scores a goal. One-third of Lamoureux s career goals (three out of nine) are game-winners.

He was UND s leading goal scorer in with 20. HEX MARKS THE SPOT: In his two-plus seasons with the Fighting Sioux, junior forward Brett Hextall (Manhattan Beach, Calif.) has emerged as arguably UND s most indispensible power-play weapon. UND s power-play has converted on 20.7 percent of its chances (97-for-468) in Hextall s 78 career games. In 10 games without Hextall, the Sioux powerplay has clicked at just 8.9 percent (5-for-56), including a 6.5 percent (3-for-46) mark last season. Hextall s 14 career power-play goals lead all active Sioux. FAMOUS DAVE: With 158 career wins under his belt, UND head coach Dave Hakstol is the third winningest coach in the storied history of Fighting Sioux hockey.

Hakstol enters the week with a (.639) career record, including a (.606) mark in the WCHA. UND s 30 WCHA and NCAA playoff wins in Hakstol s first six seasons are six more than any other WCHA school.

11 OCT. 19, 2010 UNIVERSITY OF NORTH DAKOTA FIGHTING SIOUX MEN S HOCKEY GAME NOTES PAGE 11 Now in his seventh season as the head coach at the University of North Dakota, Dave Hakstol has established himself as one of the most accomplished and respected bench bosses in NCAA hockey. Already a five-time finalist for the prestigious Spencer Penrose Award as the national coach of the year, Hakstol guided the Fighting Sioux to the NCAA Frozen Four in each of his first four seasons and in led UND to a MacNaughton Cup championship as Western Collegiate Hockey Association regular season champions. Last season, Hakstol and the Sioux added another piece of hardware to UND s championship lore with a Broadmoor Trophy as the WCHA Final Five champions, the second Broadmoor Trophy of Hakstol s distinguished tenure. In , Hakstol led the Sioux to a overall record and a WCHA mark, landing an eighth straight NCAA postseason appearance, the thirdlongest streak in the nation. In the process, Hakstol surpassed Rube Bjorkman ( ) as the third-winningest coach in Sioux history. Only the legendary John Gino Gasparini (392 wins) and Dean Blais (262) won more games at UND than Hakstol s 155 entering the season. Through his first six seasons, Hakstol has compiled a (.635) overall winning percentage and a (.601) WCHA record. The Fighting Sioux went overall and in conference play in en route to their WCHA-leading 14th league championship. Hakstol was also recognized as WCHA Coach of the Year for the first time in his career. Hakstol joined rare company when he took the Sioux to the Frozen Four in his first four seasons as a collegiate head coach, joining Jack Parker and Doug Woog as the only three coaches to accomplish that feat. In Hakstol s first season ( ) as head coach, he led a team with nine seniors to the Frozen Four. In his second season ( ), he led a team with 13 freshmen and just two seniors to the Frozen Four. In his third season, Hakstol took UND to the Frozen Four yet again, and sophomore forward Ryan Duncan won the Hobey Baker Memorial Award as the best player in college hockey. In , his fourth season, Hakstol led UND to a overall record and WCHA mark (second place). A key in Hakstol s success has been surrounding himself with an outstanding coaching staff. In his first two seasons, Hakstol was joined by associate head coach Brad Berry and assistant coach Cary Eades. Eades has won championships on every level at which he has played or coached. After the highly-respected Berry accepted a coaching position within the Vancouver Canucks organization in the summer of 2006, Eades was promoted to associate head coach and Hakstol hired former Sioux and NHL player Dane Jackson as an assistant coach. Jackson, who had an 11-year career as a professional hockey player, has became an integral part of the coaching staff by working individually with each Fighting Sioux player on developing their skills. Postseason Excellence The trademark of the Fighting Sioux during Hakstol s first six seasons has been UND s ability to play its best hockey at the most crucial time of the year in the playoffs.
