But, we finished the season with an awesome 3rd OT goal. We finished the season with a sweep. Over NMU.

Not too often you can end a season with a win. A playoff sweep against NMU in the Litter Box just makes it a little bit sweeter.

This team will give us a lot of good hockey over the next few years.

Was 1981 our last season that ended in a win?

Offhand I would think so. In the old WCHA all ten teams made the playoffs so unless they won a WCHA third place game 1981 would be the last time. I don't recall when the WCHA dropped the 3rd place game.

IMHO, the highlight of the season was beating Marv's team to win the GLI. Second, beating Northern in the WCHA tourney.

I can almost guarantee that season ending sweep of NMU will be a top 10 moment of the 2020s.

I hope it doesn't make the cut.

In some ways I agree with you, but this has a lot going for it, the drama (3OTs, a poor little flopping man), controversy (the disallowed goal), the rivalry (NMU), the stakes (WCHA playoffs and NMU's season on the line), the setting (the Litter Box/Liberry), add in the the historic context (the last game of the season, unknown at the time) and you have a compelling story. Yes it isn't going to get a banner in the rafters, but all things considered it is a great victory.

Personally I hope there are many WCHA championsips and NCAA Tournement wins to eclipse this, but even then,

A totally agree with everything you wrote. I was just making a comment that I sure hope this is not the pinnacle of Tech hockey in the 2020s.

Same here. I want to see a WCHA and many CCHA banners hung in the JMac.

Realistic goals for 2020-2021 (no particular order)

Home Ice in WCHA playoffs
Beating NMU
Win a game against MnSU
Beat the teams we should beat
Win the GLI
Get better every day
