      The answer to this question is not immediately obvious. Please explain.
      And then we wouldn't get the top recruits because they'd go elsewhere. It's a small price to pay for success.

        I do like the idea of Zengerle playing C and Barnes playing with him and Murray. It may give him a chance to show is offensive prowness more. Smith with Lee maybe will help wake him up too.

        Springer makes me nervous.

        I'm looking forward to seeing the game live and in person tonight.

          Glad they are moving Zengerle to C, his playmaking ability is great, but also think he is much better in the face-off circle then Smith. Haven't seen the numbers, but in the games I've seen, Smith doesn't win many. Maybe just used to Geoffrion owning every face-off.

            Over the last several years, Wisconsin has been very good at winning face offs. At the end of the game, Wisconsin almost always has more. But not this year.

              No joke. The UW/Kohl Center needs to seriously reconsider the asinine 8.5x11" bag rule. I have seen so many angry confrontations at the turnstiles for both mens and womens games about this rule. Women are being turned back to their cars with purses that no one in their right mind would consider obscenely large, simply because they are larger than the piece of paper that the Per Mar guy is holding.

              For a sport that is not sold-out on a season basis, you'd think the UW would want people to think positively of their visit to the Kohl Center for a hockey game so that they might consider making a return trip. Being informed that your everyday purse is a terror danger and having to trudge it back to your car in the cold -- despite continual warnings from UW Police to not keep any valuables in your car due to break-ins -- is not the way to start off the evening on a positive note.

              Simply requiring bags to be searched has always worked in the past and should be sufficient now.

                thoughts on tonight's absolute circus of a game

                UMD
                great skaters
                #14 or 24, flaherty, can pick em up and put em down, jc that kid looked fast
                Dylan Olson...stud. great d-man. Hawks have a great pick there
                goalies....tsuck

                UW
                - #19 - has he lost it? gardiner is getting beaten waaaaaaaaaaay more often that I recall happening in his 1st 2 seasons
                - #3 - for the 1st 1/2 of the game was possessed, played w/uber confidence, stick-handled and skated well, last 1/2 tentative
                - goalies...please call the UW DB's tomorrow on their thoughts on how to FORGET awful performances, thanks
                - #7 - monster. Barnes is going to be the best of the frosh and possibly the next Steven Reinprecht. he's got great moves and nose for the puck
                - #25 - Mersch, keep doing what you're doing please. results will follow.
                - TEAM - sometimes I saw a few guys try and do the ole Sauer-esque "play w/5 pucks out there" (attempting to do TOO MUCH alone) - remember you're a team, don't try and skate through 3 guys by yourself, MAKE THE FREAKIN PASS, and then SKATE HARD AFTER THE PASS FOR THE RETURN PASS
                - conversely - the d-men don't look nearly as confident skating the puck up ice now for reasons unknown to me. did UND rattle this team that much?

                #29 and #14 not enough info on Clark and Dahl to know what they can do yet...weird. though clark looked a step slow to me

                overall I'm kinda ****ed. You can't go blowing 3-1 leads anywhere but at home that's really disappointing. this one may hurt UW's chances down the road if they're an NCAA bubble team

                and once again...goalies, please call up the db players at UW or the Defensive backfield coaches. shake this **** off and be the brick walls you've been in every other game

                .02
                Everything in its right place, Wisconsin Hockey National Champs!

                  Per Mar is my sworn enemy. Back in my Crease Creature days, I had seats in 117. After a period against UMD, the Bulldogs were heading into the locker and I referred to one of them as "Goldilocks". During the intermission, a Per Mar "security" guard came by to give me a talkin' to about not taunting the other team. Absurd.

                  Oh, and UW's policies on signs and flags is absurdly stupid. I still don't understand how Phil never get's his "Let's", "Go" and "Red" signs taken away, since those are clearly at least the size of two 11" x 17" sheets put together. Not that I'm complaining- I love Phil like the rest of you- I just don't get the double standard.
                  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."

                    Getting UND and UMD back-to-back is a pretty tough test for this young team: two very good but different opponents. UMD is FAST and a little inconsistent, while the Sioux have a more controlled (I'm not referring to discipline) style of play. I wonder if it's harder for a team as young as the Badgers to play these 4 games at home, with the kind of tradition and expectations the fans have? I mean, on the road against these opponents there would not be much pressure, and splits would be considered success. At home, the expectations are a little higher and the pressure turned up a notch or two. This could develop like a Hakstol-type season for the Badgers. Good luck tonight, the Dogs won't get any slower.

                      The exact opposite happened per Eaves wishes; during this rebuilding year the goaltenders have to step up. Up until last night, they were pretty good. I understand there will be mistakes IN FRONT of them, but there were a few put in by UMD last night that were pretty weak.

                      I'm wondering if all 4 goalies last night were drinking from the same bubbler?

                        Weird game.

                        Poor officiating, imo.

                        Security's been stupid for years, so while I get the general dislike for them, I don't get the complaining about the bag rule specifically- what do you need for a few hours at the KC that you can't fit in a small purse?

                          Last week I had an old CCM jersey in a Bucky's Locker Room bag for a friend who wanted it, the contents of the bag were far smaller than 8.5x11, but the bag wasn't so the ****** wouldn't let me in, but I could take the jersey out, throw the bag away and then it was ok. What was I going to do w/ the bag, put it over some dumb**** Green Gopher fan's head and suffocate him/her? Yeah yelling "Sioux" at the end of the National Anthem deserves a death sentence IMHO, but I wouldn't kill them w/ a plastic bag. On top of that, the guy didn't even ask to open my jacket because he was so obsessed about the stupid bag I was carrying. I could have carried in a nuclear bomb last saturday night and it would have been ok, but my plastic bag w/ a jersey in was too big.

                          As for the game last night, yes the goalies were weak, but the D for the Badgers did a lot of standing around on a few of those goals. Go hit someone, knock them off the puck, don't even let them have a chance to shoot.

                          I think Tyler Barnes showed up last night in a big way and hope that continues. For the recent bad stretch, there are some positives. Simonelli is starting to play better, and 1st Star, Mersch and Barnes are playing pretty **** well 13 games into the season for freshman.

                          The WCHA refs continue to suck, they set a higher standard for themselves each year, but continue to out do themselves by sucking even worse.
