    Yeah, and according to what I'm seeing on Twitter, BSU had to also. Pretty dumb. Should have just left the ice.

      Yeah, that makes absolutely no sense. As long as it's a league-specific thing, it still counts as a tie, and there's no league points on the line, so it serves absolutely no purpose whatsoever. In a tournament as a tie-breaker, ok, but a regular non-conference series?

      Maybe they just wanted a warm-up for league play

        Right, that's why UMD and SCSU wanted to do it, but why would BSU and Tech go along with it? Surely they didn't have to. Why help them out by giving them more practice on shootouts?

          Probably because it's a friendly gesture that will help ensure we continue scheduling UMD, and that they will alternate with travel to Houghton every other season (where there will not be a shootout). Much as I hate the shootout, I don't mind tolerating it in Duluth's building, because the odds of replacing the Bulldogs with a comparable or better opponent willing to reciprocate are very low.

            Unfortunate as it is, this is the key to the equation...

                  This. I don't find it to be a big deal. And we only had to do a 2/3 shootout because UMD shoots as well in the shootout as we did in regulation....
                  MTU Hockey fan since I was carried to a game in 1986 - for those counting... that's a lot of depressing hockey. Still love it.

                    "Bitter" for you, is like "*******" for Old Pio; it's getting old. Time to find a new shtick.

                        UND and Vermont also had a shootout. Home ice...our rules. If the games had not been on NCHC sheets, there might not have been shootouts.

                            Mankato apparently lapsed back into old, bad habits this weekend, spending way too much time in the penalty box.
