    Re: Wisconsin Hockey G2O - Making UW Hockey Great Again

    Nic Kerdiles had to use the drive through for his "cup of coffee" in the show, as the Ducks traded for and signed Patrick Eaves over the top of him and sent Nic back to the Gulls after his one game. Perhaps the Rangers should look to sign Kerdiles away too, as it seems like the Ducks haven't displayed a ton of confidence in him. When he jumped ship here it looked like he would have a very good shot to make the big club, but the Ducks signed several guys over the top of him that summer as well.

      So hard to see Badgers go to a team like the Rangers.... Blech.

        I think he was kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place after 2013-14 at UW. Probably could've used another year at UW, but you couldn't really blame him for leaving with how empty the cupboard was about to be. Also didn't help that he's had some injury issues since he went pro.

          Anyway, it was a great time, and I will be back down to a game next year...the girls are exciting to watch, and they are great sports...even tossing over some autographed pucks to my daughter and her friends!

          My daughter plays hockey, wondering what age group your daughter plays? Mine has played both U10 and U12 this season. Both are going to State Tournament so I'm off to balmy Superior this weekend and Hudson next weekend lol.

              That's what hockey is all about right there. Hopefully you gave Coach Koch contact info, looks like some future UW players for sure.

                They entered the NCAA tournament 4th overall nationally and were buried on UW-specific outlets...it will be an extremely long road to get the enthusiasm back on track. It's not just about bringing fans back, it's about building the new fan base largely from scratch, and teaching them what the heck college hockey actually is.

                    I was talking about 2013-14. Even diehard fans completely forget that, and fans who are anything short of diehard never noticed in the first place. I always describe that year as a "lost season contained in a bubble" when describing the downfall to older Badgers fans who saw men's hockey as "big" (even if they didn't follow it closely) and when describing it to newer fans to illustrate the crazy mismatch between the team's previous success and reputation and what new fans see now. Wins and losses were a miniscule part of that.

                          I lived in a smallish town with a pretty competitive D3 team in WI for a few years, and even then they rarely got the lead. High school stuff seemed to trump it all the time. My experience is that hockey hardly existed outside a 20 mile radius of the KC. It was pretty sad searching for information.

                            So...what are you feeling? I think the Badgers will be ready for the rematch. The defense was really challenged last time and I think OZ will be able to make some chicken salad out of chicken ****. Of course, hoping for at least a split. This thread is so quiet; no mention of PSU; no Wisconsin @ PSU thread; I had to go to page 3 (Feb 21) to find anything posted by a PSU fan. This is a yuge series......WHAT THE Fire trUCK?

                              I'm excited about the series don't get me wrong, but it's hard to be fired up on the forum when there aren't any PSU fans on here.

                              A split this weekend would be nice but more than that would be outstanding. I don't think many of us thought we would be in a position with two weeks left to put ourselves into the tournament at this time last year. It's amazing how a new crop of coaches and a new playing style can change a hockey team.

                                I'm hoping for a split based on the fact psu (and I really am starting to HATE that team) blew uw's doors off 3 weeks ago.

                                However, G2O is a tremendous staff and this team played great since psu and I think the coaches have gotten a lot out of this team the past two weeks.

                                So, I'm getting some thinner after work and will be excited to tune in
                                Everything in its right place, Wisconsin Hockey National Champs!
