      I'm sure it's sweet for Mel . . . and bringing back the MacInnes Cup is only one of several goals on his checklist.

        Does anyone know if they will sell and GLI champions merchandise? I doubt it but figured I would ask. May have to pick up the new Gold jersey as a GLI Champions souvenir.

          Just switching around personnel per performance/matchup purposes. No major injuries other than Lickteig's heavy crash into the end boards.

              So we all know that HF is superstitious, but who else is... I'll admit it I am. It's required that I log in exactly 10 minutes before game time, that I stand during play, and that the computer sit on the same stool during the games.
              I wonder what other stupid superstitious habits our fans have?

                A friend of mine with no rooting interest for Tech watched the team play MN back at the start of the season and watched both games of the GLI this past weekend. His comment to me was: "How is the team only 6-10-3..."

                The potential is clearly there, we just need to get that "best effort" every game.

                  Similar comment was made on FSD something along the lines of "how they score I can see them beating anyone, the way they play defense I can see them losing to anyone" If they give their best effort and tighten up the D zone they will win consistently.

                    Vs. ND there were a lot of goals that seemed easy if they can keep them goals out of the net they can win many games, a lot of it was coverage issues, i think for the most part they have that fixed now.

                      Getting it right for one weekend of CCHA opponents does not mean it is fixed. Do they have a better idea of how they need to play? Absolutely. Will it translate into WCHA wins? Only if the have the same complete 60 minute effort, night in and night out. Sustaining the level of play is tough. I just hope the taste of Champion-chips lingers in their mouths a little bit, and make them hungry for more.

                      These freshman and sophomores are only going to get better, so long as they push themselves harder and harder to become better players. Mel has the right mix of talent and grit on this team right now to start turning the corner with the program. Do the players, have the attentiveness, the will and the drive to make it stick and become reality? That is the true question. Should make for a roller coaster, but exciting next few years.

                          Commas and periods are your friend.

                            Stephen Anderson's column today - It was Tech's Year at GLI

                            http://www.mininggazette.com/page/co...e-Huskies.html

                            A couple of tweets from Stephen:
                            Lickteig feeling alright, but sprained shoulder, out 2-4 weeks. Dan Sova may be ready for UMD.

                            mtuhky had Monday/Tuesday off, today is a travel day, will practice Th/Fri afternoon, Saturday morning and back to normal next Monday

                              Terminal sibilant alveolar fricatives are your friends, as required by subject-verb agreement rules. Also, don't pick on the Calumet people, we don't talk good.
                              Huskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. Grooming is minimal; bathing is normally unnecessary.

                                I figured someone would say that, but I used it how I intended to.
