Wisconsin Hockey 25-26 Hastings Year 3 - Turning the Corner?

At least our players don’t get arrested for felony aggravated assault…

Tough news for Ped State. But you have to be smarter than to punch another college kid no matter what they’re saying to you.

LOL I know you have great distain for that program and are shedding tears a plenty. His $700,000 will pay for a nice attorney.

Sales are brisk for this series. The 3rd tier is open and many seats sold up there. I'm bummed there's people around us tonight in the back of 210, but that's ok. When we went to the UAA game, there wasn't anyone near us in the same seats.

LET'S GO RED!

Zelenov back in the lineup. The D pairs are actually L-R, L-R, L-R. I’m feeling good about tonight!

Put Pulver in.

The first period was a prime exhibition of terrible defense by both teams.

Hauser looks slow going side to side. Not good for an undersized goaltender.

They are utterly hopeless. They have no clue how to cover the backside forward when they are a man short.

Finley wins it in OT, but that game did not give me a warm feeling. They play that poorly defensively they will get throttled by 70% of the teams in D1 hockey.

I'm glad we got the win, it's been a brutal stretch. In their losses, Bucky is outscored 5-2. That tells me, it's not bad in one phase, it's bad in ALL phases. That can't happen if you want to make the tourney.

Have to win tomorow, and convincingly. I'm taking one game at a time approach the rest of the way. Having Zelenov and Mors back is huge. I like Tulk and Osburn...I feel like they, with Mors will take this team as far as they can.

More of a recruiting point, but my take here on out is...if you want to compete with MSU, Michigan, who are in the back yard of the USNDTP program, you better open the checkbook for high end CHL guys that fit and the best high end scorers in the US. If anything, Big 10 play over the last 12 years has told me that you better have guys that can, in the immortal words of Christopher Cross, Ride Like the Wind. Otherwise, you lose and don't make the tourney.

He seemed quicker earlier in the season.

How did the goalie look? I did5 get to watch. Saw the score was 4-2 at one point and thought it was in the bag then saw ND scored a bunch on the 3rd to tie it.

I mean…are the goalies atrocious? Is it the defense or is it the goalie coach? I noticed several very soft goals earlier this season and even when they were winning…but I’m not sure the cause of the problems really
