Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2018-2019
Gophers won 2-0 on 12/3/16. Wisconsin had not lost a game at home since then until today although UMD tied them on 2/11/17.
North Dakota sandwiched wins to end a much longer Gopher streak a few years ago. The fans at Ridder gave the Gopher players one of the loudest cheers ever at the end of that game though. Did the Wisconsin fans do the same today?"Everything that rises must converge." Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

I believe the streak you are talking about that was ended by North Dakota was the Gopher's consecutive game winning streak - both home and away - that included the perfect season, right? That's kind of apples and oranges to a home winning streak where there have been several road/playoff losses in the middle.

Originally posted by Nowheresville View PostThe Badgers unbeaten streak at LaBahn was at 35 before today's loss. There was no special recognition by the fans, other than the usual cheers around the stick salute, but I don't know how many people even knew it had been 35 straight without a loss at home. (I'm not even sure if that would be a team record?)

We all know a throttling wasn't going to occur, the rodents are a lot better personal-wise than they were last year, sometimes I just can't help myself. I'd say UM had the better of the play overall as I stated in your thread, but there wasn't that big of a difference between the 2. UM played better transition D. I was surprised MJ rolled the 4th line out as much as he did at first, but their play warranted the playing time, they did not look out of place at all. I was a little worried about Soup, I think her play hasn't been as consistent as it was last year, but she played awesome. That game was intense, the time just flew right by. Refereeing was terrible, they let way too much go. Why would a UM/UW game be played under different rules?Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

Originally posted by bluffrinkrat View PostYes, but even so 35 games without a loss at home is a very impressive accomplishment and I'm surprised if most of the Badger fans did not know about it. And indeed the 62 game winning streak received a lot of attention not only in Minnesota but nationally as well and it was just nice to see the Gopher fans show their appreciation to the players when the streak finally ended. It's too bad if as you say that vocal appreciation did not happen at LaBahn today.
Perhaps the more impressive thing is that the 35 game home winning streak only beat the old record by 4 games - the previous record of 31 straight at home was broken with the same game that started the current streak, the loss to the Gophers in December 16. That means the Badgers haven't lost to a team other than the Gophers at home since they fell to St. Cloud in February 2015!

I'm sure Gopher fans have a half-dozen instances in mind from yesterday. But if that's the way you're gonna ref a game, then just go to a "black and white marbles in the pocket at random intervals" system.
I understand that striking the right balance between "too much" and "not enough" is especially tough in a game like Gophers-vs-Badgers, but yesterday was NOT a satisfactory answer.Last edited by robertearle; 10-28-2018, 09:53 AM.
