Wisconsin Badgers 2020-2021

I was a little apprehensive.

Minnesota WCHA game, two goals for the third line; for Ohio State, three (?) for the second line; today three for the first line. It's all good.

Yeah I have been railing on the 1st line and they carried the whole load LOL. Providence packing it in during the first period actually suppressed the quality chances. Once it opened up UW had some great transition chances but their goalie was great. Of course then they got some chances on UW in the O zone as well. I was just fearful of one of those seeing eye bounce, deflect clunker goals.

Well we get the rematch, surprise surprise right?

I was hoping to avoid the OSU matchup, and there was a glimmer of hope after 1, but BC never really had a chance once Muzzy lite a fire between the first and second period.

This game is a toss-up. A big key to the game is faceoffs. The last game UW overcame a HUGE faceoff deficit to OSU and won. UW must get the won/lost ratio to at least 50/50. You burn a lot of extra energy trying to just get the puck then, and then when you do get it your are gassed and can't do anything with it.

Sadly, I will be traveling from probably 5-7:30 Thursday and will be ending up in a hotel in LaCrosse, which will probably not have ESPNU so I can watch the end. I will be dvring it, thankfully it's not on ESPN3. I will be hanging on every word coming out of Reid's mouth. Hopefully Greeny will be in the booth with him. I will be home Saturday night for the game with NE.

Awfully nice of you to be interested in watching OSU's game against NU! (big grin, wink wink)

Haha. I will be interested in watching the game no matter who is in.

Looks like our DirecTV here in Madison will broadcast tomorrow's game live on ESPNUHD channel 208. .

Attaboy! Ultimately it's the love of the sport. I'll be watching too no matter who's in.

Reid is in Madison doing the games remotely, because of COVID. Greeny is with the team in Erie. (And do I remember hearing Reid say that Brian Posick would be doing Thursday's game?)

Set enough time on your DVR for two OT's and two intermissions - you never know!

Another great day for hockey! I do believe at some point today I am going to blow chunks. To me, this is what the season is all about. Fighting for the NCAA title. Yes, winning the wwcha regular season title and the tourney are nice and all, but the goal is to make the ncaa's and fight for another title. If they win the other 2 things during the process, great, but it's all about this week. Obviously only 1 team will be happy at the end of the season and it's a hard thing to win. The odds are always against you no matter who you are, but this is Watts it's all about. Let's go RED!

Wisconsin vs. PC absolutely dominated the first, were outplayed in the 2nd and needed the refs in the 3rd. PP looked awful. I would not be excited if I was a Badger fan.

[robertearle]

... were outplayed in the 2nd ...

Yes, only managed 18 SOG while allowing 8.

Troll alert!

I clicked on his name and looked at his post history a little. Disappointed Providence fan. I can live with a little 'venting'.
