Wisconsin Hockey 2019-2020: Time to Get Offensive

Kalynuk is a liability.

...but the game was on Fox Sports Wisconsin!

But here, in upstate New York, it was on FCS-Pacific (or maybe FCS-Atlantic or both). Tonight's Badger game is on FCS-Pacific with the Golden Rodent's game on FCS-Atlantic.

Kalynuk is a liability.

Was busy with the kids tonight. I believe this without question, but am curious to know what he did this time. It couldn’t have been too catastrophic, as the lone Bulldog goal wasn’t unassisted.

Actually, he fell over and that allowed the Bulldog player to get a better position to put the puck in the net (and he did).

Kalynuk is truly awful at his decision making and passing. Turns the puck over like it’s going out of style. He did the same crap drop pass on the power play breakout tonight that went right to a UMD player and forced Turcotte to take a penalty while trying to make up for it. This play has to be by design because he does the drop pass every time and it’s predictable. It’s a whole bunch of mistakes that I don’t expect from a junior and captain.

That was terrific!

...so of course I come to this thread and the only topic is that it's time to freak out about Kalynuk blowing a tire at the wrong time.

It was an interesting night.

Volleyball game certainly pulled some of the crowd away, especially one of the most important parts of the gameday experience (Phil!)

Sat next to Phil's wife at the WHB luncheon and he had surgery 4 weeks ago and had to watch from home. So he wasn't at volleyball either....

EDIT I obviously needed to read further in the thread to see it's already been answered.....

I watched Friday's game last night. I'd call that as solid of a performance as I have seen out of a TG team yet. I'm most excited about the D play in the NZ and DZ, no glaring *** screw ups and solid goaltending. Hoping to watch game 2 tonight.

Right on WiscDc. K is struggling. he will improve yet. Its confidence.

Other than the fall he played ok Saturday night.

Congrats to the Badgers on the sweep, they surely deserved it. UMD looked nothing like their usual selves. Badgers looked speedy.

From my first trip to Madison in 20+ years I take from it:
Love the Kohl Center; all the Badger signs, etc were great and really like the layout of the stadium.
The top deck was pitiful, very sad that basically you could have a pick of any seat (Friday especially)
Students and band were great, although couldn't hear them well
I like the look of the women's rink, especially since it was right next door, but sadly couldn't get inside
The farmer's market was fantastic. It looping around the Capital is really neat.
Great view of the Capital rooftop, although it was a little confusing how to get up there (I think the 4th set of stairs we finally figured it out)
Madison as a town is great, nice and hilly
Right next to the hotel we were at (Middleton) there was a restaurant burned completely through and through, only a shell left. Sad.
On the trip into town there was a Sheriff car overturned on it's roof. Hopefully everyone is ok, I need to search the news.
Always have had a soft spot for the Badgers. It's something along the line of "the enemy of my enemy".

I never thought I'd do this chant on my own team, but "O VER-RA TED!". Let's see how they do against Clarkson before we crown their arses.

It was a VERY encouraging weekend, only allowing 3 goals is like it's 2006 again. When's the last time that happened? Seems like years ago.

Yeah something we haven't seen in awhile. We're ranked number six. Time will tell, boys

It's pretty simple Timmy:

Providence lost to Holy Cross, who lost to Merrimack, who lost to the Badgers. Transitive hockey property =[(#6) Badgers > (#7) Province'd]!

Faceoff stats spreadsheet has been updated. Strangely the stats on the Saturday night game actually match the actual faceoff stats.

Maybe they have ghost faceoffs....
