Re: Wildcats @ Fighting Irish Nov.14-15

Mojo, I look forward to the 20-21st..... "distinct possibility"!!!! Beat the drum, Grill the brats, we're gonna have a tail gate.

Spirit Phone 2009-2010 is on the line.

Mojo, did not hear what happened to O-Town, but we have to go to Vegas when I get back in the Spring...

Thats what I miss over here, barbeque, brats, burgers, and beer................ Of course some good ribbing with NMU Faithful and out of towners......

We need to focus on this week against the Irish and then I can reflect on the good memories of NMU fans and UNO fans uniting, whether in Marquette or Omaha.

LETS GO CATS!!!!

Do you think Charlie Weiss will get fired if NMU seeps the Irish?

Thanks for your service on Veterans Day!

Also, have no fear, next weekend we'll hoist a beer and a hunk of freshly grilled animal in your honor.

One of my humorous memories of a past trip included Kujo watching out for our mutual friend MOJO. Mojo was "slightly" unsteady on his feet after a full day of rabble rousing, tailgating, dash-n-drink during intermissions, and several stirring karaoke songs when I escorted him to his truck to drive him home.

Capt. Kujo monitored the situation (caught up with Mojo and I outside, confirmed that Mojo was safe with said UNO fan/driver) and allowed us to proceed. I have no doubt that he would have "rectified" the situation if he felt that MOJO was being abducted by the opposition.

For this weekend, go cats., kick some Irish *****.

NoClu, can we save the stories for next week... Are you sure you don't have me confused with another NMU fan?

As for this series? What a boring week on the boards, eh!!!

My prediction is Olver wins on Friday night and plays well Saturday but loses late in a close game.

Friday:
Olver 4
ND 2

Saturday:
Olver 2
ND 3

After I see my upcoming work schedule today, Sunday might be a possibility... Probably going to skip out however and save my cash for something later in the year....


Looking ahead at these games, I am stuck pondering ND's goalie situation... Although Phillips is a Jr., he only has 10 games under his belt... Johnson is a Freshmen... I'm not sure what to expect... With both being green, I would think that the possibility of a meltdown is definitely there if we can get on the board early...

It's cliche, but we need to get on the board early in both games, especially Friday... As has been stated, someone other than Mark Olver needs to step up to the plate here... Phil Fox showed some life this past weekend... Hopefully he can keep the momentum rolling....

From the ND season thread:

NMU comes here with a 2-5-1 record averaging 2.25 goals for and 3.12 goals against. NHL on the Fly gave a telling stat that the team to score first in the NHL this season was winning better than 70% of the games (as expected...). NMU is 2-3-1 when scoring first (that's 41.7%).

ND is 5-4-1 while averaging an unremarkable 2.3 goals for and a remarkable 1.8 goals against. ND is 4-3-1 when scoring first (56.3%). Both teams need to work on holding a lead.

Maybe we should let them score first?

Re: Wildcats @ Fighting Irish Nov.14-15

OK, where is all the excitement? This week has been interesting, its a chance for the Cats to come out and take some points away from the Irish. I think NMU has Revenge on the mind from its experience at the Joe. Cats need to come out on fire, play 60 minutes, score more goals, control the puck, and take it to the Irish......

LETS GO CATS!!!!

Re: Wildcats @ Fighting Irish Nov.14-15

I've noted this in the past. Northern's record during Michigan's deer season is, in a word, bad. Don't ask me why. But as far back as '90-'91 the the Cats come up short. For example, last year they got swept at BGSU. It seems every year I sit at camp and listen to one loss after another. And I get to hear my uncle ask "What's wrong with the Northern Michigan University Wildcats?"

Yes, even during the National Championship season of '90-'91, the year they went 38-5-4, they went 1-3-1 during deer season.

So if your looking for factors that might indicate how the Cats will do this weekend and the next few series, don't overlook this obscure phenomena.

Based on this, I see no more than 2 wins between now and Dec. 1.



Please, oh please, Cats. Prove me wrong this deer season!

As long as none of our players gets lost in the woods, I'll consider it a victory.
