#2 Wisconsin heads to #7 BC (10/18) and #15 BU (10/19) HE/B1G challenge

I remember both games with clarity. I prefer the latter, but concede the former. I will be in attendance next Sunday with my 8 year old, Cosmo, and I request that y'all go belly up so I can instill a strong western bias in my son's psyche. Thanks in advance for your collective acquiescence.

Next weekend's games are going to be fun to watch. Two young, skilled teams that can absolutely fly. Two young, talented goaltenders. Can't wait.

Agreed. Having only seen Friday's 6-0 game I still think these freshmen look to be fast, gritty and possibly outstanding. I withhold too much praise, but 6 against a typically stingy ( may I say tight? ) Beaver squad is a good sign.

UMN vs BC.

Not 5-5.

We were talking about how you always beat up on us, right?

Congratulations to Wisconsin for the split on the weekend.

Obviously credit to BC, but that was one of the most lackluster efforts I've ever seen from a hockey team on Wisconsin's end.

I thought BC embarassed the WCHA all the time?

In the NCAAs in the York era, you are pretty much right there Jdubbs Jr. The record and combined score WAS pretty embarrassing for the WCHA.

mnstate0fhockey is the same person as JDubbs, FYI

You know why I respect Wisconsin fans, Chuck? Aside from the fact that they are always nice people... it's because I respect any fans that have had to deal with North Dakota and Minnesota fans for so long.

LOL, it's not an easy task.

Wasn't your statement. Sorry to poke holes in the statement that was made.

But I agree. York has generally had his way with the what was WCHA elite in recent history. No denying that.

I don't get your reaction here Dubbs. I know you didn't watch the game. It was by far the worst I've seen Wisconsin play in a long time. BC took advantage of every opportunity presented. What else do you want me to say?

Don't you have some 15 year old recruits to suck up to or hassle when they don't pick the Gophers?

Chuck, no need to defend yourself. As a BC fan, I thought Wisconsin put forth one of the worst performances I've ever seen.

Just appreciating your back-handed compliments.

I see where he's coming from. "We played poorly" can come off as simply an excuse when the nature of sports is you win or you lose, and the better team that night is the winner. Not trying to troll. I just hate losing and would rather be ****ed when it happens than have to think about it on a deeper level (which you have to do when you have to write about it).
