Re: Michigan Wolverines 2015-2016 Season
That's two blown last minute leads that have cost us points in the standings. If we don't choke on the road against OSU back in January and Wisconsin tonight, we are up by 3 in the standings.
Now we almost certainly have to sweep or get a win and a tie at a place we've never even won at since this stupid league formed.
And the good-for-nothing buckeyes sure didn't help us out. Could've taken as many as NINE POINTS from Minnesota in the standings if they scored on them in OT.

I missed most of the game, but it appears to me that the big headline is that Racine is getting better between the pipes. What I saw of the 3rd, he made some strong saves, and looked quite confident.
D play looks better, although the blind passes still....
CCM is still scoring, and Motte extended his scoring streak.
I understand that Wisconsin's one goal was questionable, but we still won by 3.
I watched the Minnesota/OSU game- if OSU played any kind of defense, they win- gave up the 4th goal with less than 2 minutes, but OSU scored with .01 seconds left to tie, only to lose off a faceoff in OT. The Gopher series should decide the B1G Ten regular season, but the boys can't cough up any games along the way. Plus, it will sink their PWR quickly. Would be nice to keep a 2nd seed going into the NCAA playoffs. The teams above them I think are a cut above in defense and goaltending so it will be tough to earn a #1 seed.

Originally posted by UMICH View Postsparty typically plays above their heads when they play us. This is one reason why they are called Lil'Brother. They only care how they do when playing us.
To illustrate that point further I'll point out that they are having a discussion about ICE CREAM SANWICHES on the sparty board currently.

I think you might have jinxed yourself telling us that. LOL!

Right now, these rankings means nothing. I will not get burned again by looking at rankings and thinking we can assume we're in.
I'll believe it when I see it. We haven't put together a complete regular season in a long time.
I understand your premise. There is a ton of pessimism to sweep away, but at least we are in a better position now to at least have a post season run than the previous three seasons. But don't be fooled- even if we did make the NCAA playoffs, I think the style of play we bring can be shut down by any of the 15 other teams expected to make it. As Berenson cautioned- we are a top 10 team, right now. He knows what it takes to beat complete teams and we are not one of those teams.

Originally posted by alfablue View PostIt does not mean nothing. It does tell you how the rest of the country is doing.

Originally posted by streaker View PostExactly. What it means is, Minnesota and Penn State will be desperate down the stretch to jump up into the top 14 (since you have to consider the autobid for the AHC and at least one conference tourney upset) to obtain an at large. They are in the position we have been in for three years. If not, they have to win the tourney where we don't- although it would be nice.Last edited by MGoBlueHockey; 01-31-2016, 06:53 PM.
