    Re: Michigan Tech Season Thread Part V: We Were Dead On Arrival

    I was referring to '09 as well must have misread somewhere up the page...

    As for higher difficulties, they frustrate me, because it seems like you ALWAYS lose 1 on 1 races to the puck...even if you beat the guy there...also where it's OBVIOUS that a stick lift should connect, or a poke check to connect...and it doesn't the sticks just go right through one another...

    I've been playing it long enough to know when I had a good stick lift or not...and when they don't connect it just makes me mad...

    I personally like playing against good people online that actually use plays and force you to play REAL hockey...but yet the whole stick lift/pokecheck physics are realistic...

      Well you could always do some grad work at Tech...

      MTU Degree = Sweet post-graduation salary = Lot's of stuff in the basement that ticks off one's spouse (just 'cuz she went to SCSU).

      In the spirit of equal opportunty we do have a couple dozen SCSU jerseys as well (sorry no Casey Borer) but I don't let them be seen in the photos.

      On the other hand UND jerseys go for a pretty penny so I can only afford one at a time. I actually traded it a way only to get it back in trade two owners later. It has the #23 Ralph patch so I like it for that reason. I can't harm the Tech thread by showing it here but you can see it at the link below.

        I would guess I paid more for my Sioux Scott Foyt jersey than you paid for the Conner jersey. It's pretty sad.

                I think this was rather recently... Maybe it helped in him getting called up yesterday.

                We could sure use another Chris Conner on this current Tech hockey team... GOD! Those were the days when we LIKED being on the pk because there was a good chance we'd get a goal out of it...

                  I've thought about it a couple times. The only thing that has stopped me is lack of a nice place to display them. I'm sure at some point I'll break down and get a pile of them to add to the collection. Back in the day before composite sticks were the rage, collecting sticks was easy. I crafted the two tables below in the Wads wood shop (not sure if that is still there).

                  "I hand crafted these rather unique table tops from game used sticks. The table were constructed by first taking a rough cut on both ends of each stick to get an approximate length. They were then attached to a sheet of 1/4" plywood with construction adhesive. (About 25% of the sticks, including all of the sticks used for the outer framing, were used by MTU players during their college playing days.)
                  The pucks, including two that were game used during the 1995-96 and 1997-98 seasons, were inlaid with a 3" hole saw. After the adhesive was allowed to cure for several days, the edges of the table were cut sqaure to their final dimensions. At this point the outer framing was attached with sheet rock screws and the intire table was sealed with a single coat of varnish, which was approximately 3/8" thick after drying."

                  If my records are correct Colin has it because they stopped using those jerseys the year he graduated. Tech usually gives the Seniors their jerseys from the set that is being replaced.

                    The power of Satan compels you! Buy buy buy! You even get a nice display case with each puck. There are plenty of places to put them.

                        That Conner looked pretty good. Why didn't Tech recruit him, he's from Michigan isn't he.

                              I'm embarrassed that I can name almost every single team those jerseys are from in the picture. Including the Kentucky Thoroughbreds. It's a nice collection though.
