Overachieved* when you won the regular season and still didn't make the tournament? That takes some special kind of incompetence.

Nieves off to a good start in his pro career. 5 points in his first 3 games with Hartford.

Based upon this, one could argue both teams underachieved as Quinnipiac played in a tougher conference with even less top end talent (2 drafted players) and the same could be said for North Dakota (12 drafted players). As far as squandering goes, Minnesota didn't make the NCAA tournament and Michigan both made the tournament and lost to a team playing for the title, this after winning a game in the tournament.
Granted, one could argue that Michigan choked against UND, just as one could argue that Minnesota choked against Michigan in the conference tournament. I would argue both games the losing team was outplayed.

Originally posted by UMICH View PostI AM NOT AN ENGINEER! Why in the world would I ever want to hire a sparty engineer? How many athletes (in the big 4 sports) are engineering majors at sparty? I'll ask again, how is this at all relevant to our discussion?

By keep digging into that, you keep telling us that you, as a UM grad, are superior to any MSU grad (based on a few people, all are clueless), which includes engineering (which is what I do). Yea, you are not.
Get over that, already.
I'm sure other professionals out there can tell you how absurd you are, but I go with what I know.

Well, Connor didn't win the Hobey. I wanted him to but didn't think he should. I made a post in the Hobey thread which explains why (and it includes an entertaining link):
"
I say this as a Michigan fan, this does not shock me. While I of course wanted Connor to win if you look over the requirements for the award they picked the correct individual this year. The Hobey Baker Award is about more than just who has the best stats. It's true that in recent years it has been primarily about statistics but this year the voters had a chance to right the ship. That and have a winner from Harvard, that never happens. The kid had a decent year albeit
slightly down compared to last year but his off the ice presence iswhat won it fo him. The kid attends freaking Harvard, that's no school for dummies. He speaks fluent Mandarin. He also participates in many causes off the ice. He is the captain of his team. The guy just gets it.
Connor meanwhile kicked ***** on the ice this year but didn't do much else outside. The kid partcipated in "Mock Rock" this year when is a one-time vareity show which the hockey team has their freshman class enter every year. Sure all of the proceeds from "Mock Rock" go to charity but it isn't like it was his choice. "Mock Rock" is basically a simulation of SNL. I'm pretty sure that decision comes down from Coach Berenson as a way for the incoming Freshmen to form team bonding.

He also grew a mustache (maybe) for Movember to bring awareness to Prostate Cancer. Basically said, he was more concerned about learning where his classes were. I'm not yelling at him, as a Freshman you're undergoing a lot of changes and not expected to be in a lot of causes. I guess I'm complaining more that Eichel won last year. I think the right person won this year even though I wanted Kyle Connor to win."

I know a UM grad who thought blinking red lights were "optional" stops until age 23. I just don't know about that school over in Ann Arbor. A lot of smoke and mirrors based on my one data point.

Originally posted by UMICH View PostA general studies degree from Michigan is still better than anything that you can get from sparty. Think about that for a minute....Originally posted by UMICH View PostNo, I am not suggesting that I know more than trained engineers. That is an absurd asumption, however:

When did this conversation turn into strictly engineering? How many atheletes of the 3 major sports, are engineering majors? I'm guessing very small percentage.
