10/28-10/29 Michigan Tech vs. Denver - Don't Leave without your Ice Cream

Re: 10/28-10/29 Michigan Tech vs. Denver - Don't Leave without your Ice Cream

If only they hadn't pulled the Finn card with the netminder... The pressure at the end of OT was really close to making it a sweep. Still... 3 points from Denver is result I'm happy with anytime. :D

You? Respectful?! Do you even know what that word means? :confused: Is this a drunk post?

Anywho, I will GLADLY take this three points from DU! And uh.. I hope Murray gets better soon... because my fantasy team needs him bad.

I gotta say... Mel is doing a great job so far... with Jamie's boys.

They may be Jaime's boys but it's amazing what a difference an actual coach can make isn't it?

Going to be interesting to see what happens when Mel starts pulling in his own recruits.

Yeah, it's hard to get used to them playing like a normal team and winning games. In the back of my mind I still keep waiting for a meltdown every time.

Yeah, i was expecting tonight to be bad... typical win Friday against good opponent then get crushed. This is great to see.

Exactly, other than 1 year of my following Tech, when we would win on Friday against a good or even mediocre team we would generally get blown out on Saturday, this is good to see.

I really disagree with your statement about Jamie. He is a good coach, his style overall just does not mesh well with the WCHA as it is. And I think he will have more success in HOKY RAST.

I will leave it at that, lest I have to take you behind the woodshed....those comments were unnecessary and a gross mischaracterization of his tenure.

I think he was a great guy and everything considered a dang good recruiter. He could not, however, develop his players much past where they were when they came to Tech. How many relatively talked about players did he get and how many ended up doing much of anything? St. Louis, Gagne etc all came in with high expectations but underperformed beyond belief. I think Jaime is a great recruiter/assistant coach type but not a head coach.

Or at least not seasoned enough to head coach yet.

I really hope Tech continues to go unranked (other than PWR, obviously)... it's better this way.
I had to smile when Ryan Johnson won the Jersey raffle.
Rumor has it that it may not have been left to chance... *the raffle

Like any good engineer, I don't believe in chance or luck. You make your own luck.
;)

They told me it was a Seigo jersey, but it only took about two seconds to figure out that it was not. Besides the fact that Seigo has not been captain (yet?) all the current jerseys have "MICHIGAN TECH" in the tail under the script "Huskies". This jersey is a Lars Helminen used in 2005-2007. You can even see where the "A" (2005-06) used to be stitched under the current "C" (2006-07). Lars left the team four seasons ago and they still took the name off the back.
:(
Bummer about the nameplate being gone, but I'm still excited to add this to the collection. Roy told me the team didn't replace any jerseys this year so all of the raffle jerseys will be "classics" from a couple years ago that didn't go in past raffles.

I would rather support a losing team with some class and integrity with an amazing fan base than support a winning team like DU and the rest of the NCHC counterparts and have to actually call people like you a "fellow fan". I can't believe people actually associate with people like you.
NO ONE in this thread has been more obnoxious, more insulting, and less classy than Shirtless Guy. If he were a DU fan I would be pretty irritated to be rooting for the same team as him right now. I find it amusing therefore that in one post you compliment him while deriding someone else for lacking class or whatever. It looks like Tech has a great team this year, but they sure seem to have the same bunch of bad apples among their fans that every other team has.

Edit: Okay, upon further review, he may not have been the VERY least classy guy in this thread, but he was a total a-hole and it's beyond my comprehension to defend him while in the same breath deriding anyone else. I get loyalty to fellow fans and whatnot, but seriously.

I will admit I have been a complete *****, but if notice it's because your program is full of shortsighted, arrogant *****holes who abandoned 4 programs for no good reason. They deserve every ounce of classless banter I spew on these boards. George gwozdecky is a classless hack that doesn't realize how good DU had it in the WCHA they abandoned. If you and he really think they are better off with my program than fcuk off, good riddance, dont let the door hot you on your way out of the UP. I hope Michigan Tech continues to improve and faces DU in the NCAAs just in time for their typical choke job.
 
Re: 10/28-10/29 Michigan Tech vs. Denver - Don't Leave without your Ice Cream

My mistake. See my edit. :)

You guys have dgoddard... we have shirtless and bb... ;)

I'm just as ****ed as those to about the decisions the DU and UND administration as made, but I'm not going to direct at the fanbase, most of which are just as sad to see WCHA raped and pillaged.

No matter what happens, the fact that you think you need to act like a child is sad, and it makes me feel bad for you. This is sports, you know, entertainment. Grow up.

that is SOOOOO not true, most CC and DU(mb) fans are happy with what's happening, that is why I'm *****ing at them so much!
