    If Badger freshman score 82.6% as much as gofer freshman, the question then is how many points in total for Badgers vs. Rodents?

    Also I'd be interested in seeing a chart. What else have we got to do for the next few weeks?

If you are a frosh and are playing on the "top line", you are going to go against one of the other teams top d pairings. If you are on the top PP unit, again you will face the other teams top dmen and top defensive forwards.
      This certainly makes sense to me.

      Just by reading some posts here and questioning my own ideas (and having them questioned) about how things work I've definitely learned a few things in the last week or two. So thanks guys. A number of things I hadn't even considered... like this on how match-ups might play into the equation of how less experienced teams might produce.

          From what I can tell, the Badgers seem to have had an upswing right around the time they played Ferris State.

              I gave it a go. I chose a pie chart so you can see the number of wins, losses, and ties as a portion of the total games, like a graphical win percentage. (Edit: Apparently I can't embed images.)

                How about you guys take it to another level with some weighting. Surely some losses are worse than others?

                In addition, the tie to St. Norberts, while not an official game, still helps to tell the story of the season.

                  Maybe if you change "Losses" to "other" and set the default color for that category to white you'd have something. Like a piece of pie that's half wins and half ties. And ties are worth more then just grey! Sheesh!

                  No offense, but this is a terrible chart. blech. This is not how you recruit.

                    The best way to minimize losses on a chart is to use large segments and a wide overall value range. This will squish the win/loss line down to almost a straight line.

                      The tie is not a loss, so I'd redo the chart and list "losses" and "non-losses."

                        I did it artistically, with a heavy emphasis on the pencil tool in MS Paint. Keep in mind that this is only the last 2 months or so of Wisconsin men's hockey fandom. It doesn't take into account the university as a whole (good), the city and its surrounding area (good), Wisconsin women's hockey (good), other sports (generally good), the weather outside (TERRIBLE AND DEPRESSING! I liked the snow football game, but I wish we could switch the mid-November weather with the current weather! I wanted to skate at Vilas at least ONCE before heading back east, but nooOOOOoooo, we get weather more typical in the southern US! This is not what I signed up for when I decided to go north for college! I'm sorry, what were we talking about?).

                          UW hockey's win-loss chart gets me feeling a little emotional, as it evokes memories of the Dakota prairie. With one grain elevator.

                            Maybe two to three years from now we can laugh at this when title # 7 finally comes to Madison.
