    My heart tells me we come out of Yost with 3 points, my head tells me we'll be lucky to leave with 1 or 2. It's never easy to come into Yost and take points. So, this weekend will be a great test for the Broncos.

    I'm glad we catch you guys early, before Merrill comes back.

    Let's have some fun huh?
    That's the spirit. Have some fun. And yes, Michigan will be much better with Merrill, but in the long run they may be better without him for the growth of the young guys. Winning on the road in any league is not easy, but this season the CCHA has at least 6 quality teams with the rest of the league solid at home.

      Fact or Fiction: WMU has a goalie named Frank Slubowski? Let's hope the fans at Yost have some fun with that this weekend.

        You don't have to tear apart a goalies name. The way I see it the Wolverines will maul thier opponents this weekend.
        Just putting the puck in the net does enough damage.

            Unless you count a pre-season game against University of Ontario Institute of Technology. We lost to them this year (first game) 3-2.

            Luckily, nobody does count that game...........

              Michigan coach Red Berenson took a few minutes to speak with USCHO Live! co-host Jim Connelly today about his early season, goaltender Shawn Hunwick, his former associate head coach Mel Pearson and the ongoing situation of players leaving early for the pros.

              Hear their conversation as well as our live guest, College Hockey Inc. executive director Paul Kelly on this week's edition of USCHO Live! tonight at 8 p.m. ET.

                  And here's the Wolverine.com article about it- http://michigan.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=1287316

                  Not sure what he did, but it sounded fairly bad, and they are taking it very seriously. The good thing, reading that Red said, was that he and Merrill are working this out together. So it's not as if Merrill is trying to get out of it.

                    Anyone else a little concerned that your prized freshman Phil's OHL rights just got aquired by Red's new arch nemesis the Windsor Spitfires?
                    I see another defection coming...

                      Anything can happen. Kind of immune to it. Thanks for your opinion.

                          Happens every year. And every year, we still play hockey. Go ahead and worry about it, if you want.

                            Red has always been a no-nonsense type. This is by far the longest suspension he has handed out so, yes, it is V-E-R-Y serious.

                            My GUESS is he will return to play in the GLI.

                              Lol. One of my first thoughts about BTHC. Sadly, I believe the Big Ten Network will think hockey shootouts are exciting and hope for them every game...while continuing to provide lousy announcers (and maybe even iterrupting live hockey for bouncyball pressers).

                              As for goalie commits, 3rd time's a charm? *fingers crossed*

                              For now though, there's this season and an interesting CCHA to deal with. I expect some hard-hitting, close score games against the Broncos.

                                Personally, I think that the BTN will keep out anything that might push the game outside of a 2.5-hour window. That's the problem with the shootout for TV--all of a sudden, the game starts creeping up to 2:45 or so, with all of the milling around on the ice that seems to happen between the end of overtime and the start of the shootout. It's very TV-unfriendly watching coaches choose their lineups and the refs remind everybody of the rules.

                                Personally, I never understood everybody's alleged opposition to the shootout. Sure, it's a coin flip, but why not? I think NCAA hockey is the only significant level of hockey anywhere in the world that still mostly rejects shootouts for regular-season games. I can't find any European league that doesn't have a shootout after a tied game, and I know all North American professional and semiprofessional leagues use them as well.
