  • Re: 2019-20 Michigan Tech Season Thread. Broetzman has us off to a Bliss-ful start!

    My Dad, who watches a lot of NCHC, had an interesting comment this weekend while we watched both games together. “Does Tech really take all of their shots from far away?” As we watched, it really became apparent how the only close in shots we take are from transition play. It’s rare that we get the puck low and then get it to a stick in front of the net.
    Go Huskies!

      My predicted order of finish is MNS, BSU, NMU with BGSU grabbing the last home ice slot. I have a very hard time seeing BGSU getting less than 6 pts over the last four games. They have the most games and the softest remaining schedule of anyone. If they don't get home ice that's a meltdown bigger than Tech this season.

      I have Tech finishing 6th and heading right back to NMU the following weekend for the first round of the WCHA playoffs and another ticketing nightmare for Tech fans.

        BGSU has FSU and @UAH left. Alaska has UAA left. If both win out, they will each have 49 points, but I believe Alaska has the tie breaker (I could be mistaken). Home ice is Alaska's to lose. Alaska could lose points to UAA, but they are in control of their own destiny. BGSU is not.

          This is all correct UAF would finish 14-9-5 with BGSU 14-10-4. Going to the second tie-breaker, UAF would have the better conference winning percentage.

          b) If two (2) or more teams are still tied (or all tied teams have not played four (4) contests against one another), then the team with the greater winning percentage in League games will be granted the higher seed.

          That being said, I see a better chance of BGSU getting two sweeps against the bottom of the conference than UAF sweeping a heated series against UAA. This series will be UAA playing for their playoff lives against their biggest rival. They'll find a way to get at least one point.

            I wish the conference would have started out with a new name / image, but I get the fact that 5 of the 7 member teams have at least some history in the CCHA previously it made some sense. And I'm sure BGSU pounded pretty loudly on the table that they wanted to get some use out of all the CCHA stuff they squirreled away in 2013.

            Someone already incorrectly updated Wikipedia that the CCHA restarts this Fall...

            Now fixed... my first Wiki-contribution. Yeah!

              Here is my own personal BS conspiracy theory. Mankato and BSU announce that they are leaving for the nchc, UAA announces they likely will fold due to finances, BG bullies those other teams into this and here is the result.

                      They picked CCHA. I won't change their mind so I might as well accept it and jump on board with it. I really hope they have a successful league that puts all seven of them in a better position (financially and otherwise) than they are now. Go CCHA!

                        I know first hand that one already exists because I played in it for Mosinee (WI) Papermakers many years ago. That is the league for the Portage Lake Pioneers and Calumet Wolverines men's teams as well.

                            Nope, it is the same team. In fact they use an old PL Flyers logo on their jerseys but are the Pioneers.

                              Ok, so a quick break from the CCHA chatter for my semi-annual (or even more frequent) search for one of the 2017 Military Tribute Camo Huskies jerseys. Plenty of jerseys to trade or I'll just pay cash. (Must be a game jersey with number on back.) We just got through Lend a Paw, now it's time to "Help a Husky (Jersey Collector)". Ok... who has one??

                              These available, plus many more if trading is your thing...

                                What was with the question on Joe's show - are there any unknown recruits due to security reasons. What is the submitter asking about?


                                Finally listened to the Chasing MacNaughton podcast, good listen.
