    it slid off our backs but clutched our balls on the way down. Still hasn't let go.

            It sure was nice seeing fight in our team after getting down 2 goals and not just closing up shop like they have for the past few series.... And a random thought, It sure would be nice seeing a healthy team playing at full strength... I think 3/4 of the students at tech haven't seen full, healthy team play yet, what has it been 3 years running now?? It is frustrating getting one guy back and losing another....

            And more rambling thoughts, I can't believe I am saying this already but next year is shaping up(barring anyone leaving for the bright lights) to have 2 solid scoring lines and a borderline 3rd, along with any incoming freshman that may or may not become solid scorers. (I wouldn't rely on freshman to be your main source of scoring or you'll have a record like ours). No matter who is coaching "next year" I believe this team will be much better, unless injuries take out our top line again.

              I agree. I liked last night that they forechecked hard and were able to get to the puck before the SLU man had time to get rid of it. We won a lot of faceoffs and thus controlled play in their end.( at least one of our goals came on a turnover at their blueline) We came out of the zone a lot better which led to a more even game and so we were not spending most of the game in our half of the rink. We also took advantage of our chances offensively and got more good opportunities than we have had in a long time.
              Still we left a lot of guys open in front for good quality shots,( we were good covering the puck carrier but the other players coming in late often had lax coverage), we let them have too easy access to the zone on their rushes, and we didn't play the body very well. I thought our positional play was better than recently, which helped though we still had a lot of turnovers and passes to them.

                    Yep, absolutely nothing positive to take away from that sorry excuse for a hockey game.

                      Okay, I've been critical of the idea of employing a 'gimmick' to shake the Huskies out of their prolonged Agony of Defeat. But since there can be nothing else to lose this season, including self-respect, I'll exercise my right to change my mind and propose the following:

                      Prior to next Friday's game vs. UMD, Coach Russell will arrange for all the skates of the players dressing for the game to disappear that afternoon. Gaining cooperation from the drones working deep inside the bowels of the Wadsworth Hall cafeteria, Russell will order all those skates filled with Strawberry Jello and placed into the cooler. After the Jello has solidified, he'll have the skates delivered to the Huskies' locker room.

                      Imagine the reaction of the players when they see their skates filled with Jello! They'll be like ***???????? Now, Russell has to tip off the Captain ahead of time and encourage him be aggressive about cleaning out his skates. What results is the locker room air becoming thick with flying Jello. Everyone will have Jello in their helmets, on their faces, uniforms, etc. When they come out on to the ice, UMD will be like ***????????? Imagine their reaction?

                      Teams respect their opponents and fear the crazy ones. Time to get crazy!!!

                          NOW we are at rock bottom. Rough night for sure.

                          A note to the guy behind me at the game. Sarcastically cheering for the other team won't help. Yelling at the players won't help (if the issue is not listening to the coach -and I'm not saying it is, I don't know - then they certainly aren't going to care what they guy in section X, row 55, seat 123 thinks). If you don't want to support the team, why spend your 9 bucks????

                            Sounds like someone has a Jello fetish more than anything.
