    Let's hope it stays that way.
    If at first you don't succeed, try cheating.

      So you think it will be permanent? I'm hopeful, but uncertain.

        Eaves spoke to the media today and said we're going to use the same lines this week at practice. Seems pretty likely to me.

            "We'll come back with that lineup early this week and see how we feel about it,'' he said of practices scheduled Tuesday and Wednesday in Madison before the team busses to St. Paul.

            "What we did was coming because of the staleness that we had been seeing kind of creep in,'' Eaves said. "We changed at the right time, got some good jump. So we'll start the week with the lineup that we had.''



            Those quotes were from the presser this afternoon...Baggot has them in his blog as well.

              That is great news! It was amazing to see how energized the boys looked coming out against Denver. Hopefully we can start out the rest of our games like that!


              Does anyone have any comments about hotel choices up in St. Paul?

                I have freinds places to stay so I'm not a connoisseur of the hotel scene by any means, but there is a Holiday Inn literally across the street.

                    $109.00 to stay there when I checked this morning. No idea if that's a decent rate or not.

                      I highly doubt you're going to find too much better. And you simply cannot beat the location.

                        It sounds like there are going to be a lot of tickets available, and I highly doubt it will sell out. If you can't find anything on the street for below face value, you'd probably be able to get tickets at the door.

                            Does anyone subscribe to the yahoo streaming radio broadcasts of the UW games? I need to know if they archive the games so I can listen to them later. I'll be on an airplane all day Saturday

                              Where is everyone getting there tickets at? What are the chances this sells out? Could I just drive up to St. Paul and buy them at the door or best case on the street below value?

                                If you were watching today's game, I bet you'd see the difference in the Badger's intensity. Granted, Denver seems disinterested, but we are flying today.
                                How's the chip on your shoulder doing there? A little sore?

                                Everyone is free to their opinion, of course. Personally, I find the armchair quarterbacking on sports message boards following a team's loss to be utterly predictable and boring - the usual quotations about lack of effort and whatnot.

                                I don't find those posts to really be all that illuminating. If people need to vent, that's cool - I get that. Just voicing my opinion. I'm not sure how my disagreement interferes with your ability to express your opinion.

                                Hypothetical - if we scored a goal or two on Lee early, like we did against DU, and the rest of the game played out exactly the same in terms of skating and 'effort,' I think the fan analysis here would be completely different.
                                "...the great state University of Wisconsin should ever encourage that continual and fearless sifting and winnowing by which alone the truth can be found."
