All I know is that I was happy to be doing demolition that day, because I was able to take out my frustration over the game on the walls and ceilings I was tearing out.

Hello, elephant in the room.

Was anyone afraid to admit that? I thought it was assumed.

UAA was trying to pick a lot of fights in the last series so "gooning it up" wouldn't surprise me. I, myself, would prefer some good hockey this weekend, though, win or lose.

Yeah, I would've preferred some good hockey on Sunday but Wisconsin was just too good to provide it.

Johnson is playing because of his name.

So should we change Turnbull's name to Podge Johnson and have Mark adopt him?

I agree 100%. Over the course of the season, I would say UW hasn't been a gooney team. I have no idea why they decided to goon it up like a bunch of terds Sunday instead of spanking the little rodent butts. Let the scoreboard do the talking. It was embarrassing. I'd love to hear Eaves on why his team acted like that.

It was like they were all in a bad mood or something. Everyone has those days when you wake up on the wrong side of the bed and just are ornery. Seemed like the whole team was like that. It was embarrassing. Very uncharacteristic of this team. I'm going to listen to the Badger Hockey Hour tonight to hear what Eaves has to say.

That was actually quite funny.

Hi Folks! Just dropping in to make my bi-monthly post about why PJ is playing over PT. Why this falls to me?.... Next week can somebody else make something up?

At any rate- In the first MN series, Podge was at best, poor, and in the loss (which I sat right behind the bench for) he just looked completely lost out there. Subsequently PJ got the nod and immediately had a couple of really good games. I believe I recall Eaves making a few positive comments regarding PJ's play in the press at the time. A bad weekend for Podge followed by a good weekend for PJ and Patty becomes the guy. Podge apparently hasn't been able to do enough in practice to show he's a much better option and dislodge the incumbent thus far, and as has been said, Eaves isn't going to shake up the roster going into the post season. Which I think is wise.

Incidently, I seriously doubt the fact that Murray Eaves hasn't been seen publicly since entering a black limousine with Mark Johnson outside the Shattuck front gate in early November means anything.

For those of us stuck in Alaska, the games will be on GCI channel 1 at 4 pm, but they are listed for only Friday and Saturday. If there is a third game, I hope they pick it up.

Re: WCHA First Round: #9 Anchorage at #2 Wisconsin

I watched your game against Minnesota on Sunday, and the Badgers did plenty of gooning it up. If it happens this weekend, that is unfortunate, but it won't be all UAA causing it.

Yeah i don't know what the hell that was but it prob. hasn't been a very easy week of practice for bucky after that, that much i know...

What did he end up saying last night about it?? anybody listen to it?

Re: WCHA First Round: #9 Anchorage at #2 Wisconsin

I'm sure it was because the team was frustrated. That always makes the guys play more physical, and they don't always play with their emotions in check. Happens to all teams.

At that point, they had nothing to be frustrated about. It was 1 to 1, they were controlling the play, then they just decided to play like a bunch of Marvins, well not quite that gooney.

What's the over-under on Clark starting a bench brawl or fight with the top line after we get swept?

Re: WCHA First Round: #9 Anchorage at #2 Wisconsin

If I remember correctly, one of the scrums the first time around was initiated by Bennett tripping somebody (or being accused of doing so). Luckily we won't have to worry about that this time around.

History repeats itself and Alaska takes the series to make another Final 5 appearance.
