Re: NMU vs. Michigan Tech, Feb 21 and 22: You Suck! No, YOU suck! And so on.
I don't understand how NMU loses 5 - 3 on Friday and then completely turns things around on Saturday winning 5 - 1. But I really don't understand how Tech has 14 goals scored against them on the weekend at home. Someone who knows these teams better, please explain.
I think this next home and home series between Tech and NMU could go any which way. Not sure what teams will show up--so I'll go with the home and home split.NMU Hockey Since 1976 ...there at the beginning.
Bill Crawford, LSSU radio announcer, on NMU hockey: "This is their MO right to the tee: get out shot, get out played, keep hangin' in there, just rope-a-dope it in your own zone, get it up the ice, bang it in and win the game."

I'll be at both games this weekend. This rivalry will be even bigger this weekend as critical points are on the line down the final stretch. Should be a good series that can go either way.

Originally posted by NMU Fan View PostLSSU struggles on Saturdays a lot. I believe I read on another thread they were 0-4 in conference play during road games on Saturdays so NMU had the edge on Saturday. I'm no Tech fan but it appears they've had their ups and downs this season. Quietly stalking the Tech season thread it seems their fans are disappointed with how things are going this year.

Also, Saturday is the annual Wildcat Night Across the Country. As long as I've been attending/hosting, NMU hasn't won on Wildcat Night, which is a 6 year losing streak.Facebook: bcowles920 Instagram: missthundercat01

Originally posted by davyd83 View PostCould it be that nearly all of those were road games, a few coming in series that were split?
NMU's Record on Wildcat Night Across the Nation since 2004: 3-4-2. All nine games on the road. Friday Nights 2-2-0. Saturday Nights 1-2-2. On Fox Sports Detroit/FSDet+ 3-3-2. Four weekends were true splits. Only one sweep in the 'Cats favor (of which, both games were televised nationally).
