Try winning one without sound defensive hockey. Oh wait, you believe sound defense is a "pansy way to play":
I know this is all obvious enough and that Badger fans don't need to be told, especially by a UND fan, but f&#k me, it's the off season.

Trap hockey sucks. From The NJ Devils in 95 to Mike Eaves. Wisconsin won 5 titles before Eaves with great offense and defense and didn’t have to play the boring *** trap. Sorry. What Nodak, BC, Minnesota, BU or Denver teams played trap defensive boring hockey on their way to north of 20 titles combined? oh yeah, Union and Yale didn’t play it either. So combine those titles with Wisconsin, Duluth and Michigan and your north of 40 right? Damn near every title has been won by teams who can pick em’ up and put em’ down. Fact.
so...
Titles since 2006:
UMD ~ 3
BC ~ 3
NoDak ~ 1
BU ~ 1
Denver ~ 1
Wisconsin ~ 1
Providence ~ 1
Union ~ 1
Yale ~ 1
MSU ~ 1
Michigan ~ 0
Minnesota ~ 0
Tied for 3rd most titles in the last 15 years Mr. "The only thing that matters is the NCAA title."
You make it sound like North Dakota is winning the title every other year... When in reality the only two programs with more than one title are UMD and BC and they took many years to establish their dominance. We are just in the early stages of recovering from the worst season in badger hockey history. Literally rebuilding the program. Tell me, when was the last time BC or UMD or North Dakota or Denver had to deal with rebuilding their program from the ground up? This expectation of instant success is insanity. Remember your boy Scott Sandelin took 15 YEARS to establish his dominant program.

The thing is teams have to know how to defeat the trap/system they are facing. That's where the coaching comes in. UW seemed clueless on how to beat it. BSU looked very much like the UW women who defeat the attack in the N zone, then just dump it right back in or carry it in. On the dump in, the D have to turn and chase, you win the race or the 1 on 1 battle for the puck, or block the blind escape pass up the boards, then you gain possession and create havoc.
I think more importantly than winning the ncaa is just making the ncaa tourney. That means you are a way above average team who wins 2 games for every 1 you lose. We all can live with that all day I do believe. Then anything can happen, you are 2 wins from the frozen 4, 4 wins from the title. But you HAVE to get in just about every year, maybe 4 out of every 5 years.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

Let's take a vote now. Review this article and let me know if you think Granato will shift to a more defensive style:

I will say no, based on previous years, but I hope to be completely wrong. I would love to see a more physical, defensive style.

Well he at least needs to shift to a more <responsible> style. This “who cares if you leave an unmarked man on your goalie’s back door and it’s Lebedeff’s fault if they take advantage of it” nonsense needs to end.

I find it very puzzling that Holloway has not signed with the Oilers yet. Could his injury be such that he's out of action until the summer when the pros are not playing? Would that open the door for his return to WI? One thing that cannot be over-looked is his faceoff w/l single handedly turned UW's numbers from awful to good.
I think.
Meanwhile were getting a grad transfer from BGSU: Max Johnson. Over 100 points in four years there. Don’t know much else.If you want to be a BADGER, just come along with me
BRING BACK PAT RICHTER!!!
At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."
Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.

reinprecht is the best stick handler I’ve seen on the badgers going back to 85. There were games where the gophers or st could d were pylons you him.

If he's saying it, then he is setting the table to having to follow thru. I think if you watched the OSU series where they dressed 8 F's, that was the future. Stange was great that series and Matty D can be a special playmaker in the line of Linus but more physical.
I guess I vote yes.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

Kinda trending in the wrong direction but he brings a lot of experience to the table from the hard playing wcha. From Lakeville MN. If he could crack 30 pts that would be sweet.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!
