I am quite happy that you find comfort somewhere. It sounded like the only thing a Wisconsin fan had to cheer about was the really cool third jerseys the Badgers wore last night. We feel your pain. ;)

Accused of being a Badger fan: next to kidney stones.

Anybody notice on Bjugstad's first goal how Taylor Johnson tried to throw a shoulder into him after the goal but whiffed? Not that a little 5'10 guy is going to do much to Bjugstad but... what a punk move. :rolleyes:

I noticed it and mentioned it in chat and the score thread. Luckily he whiffed but it was gutless.

When they do the post-goal group hug, Bjugstad looks like he's in the wrong age group. Plays that way too, I guess.

It was nice to see Alt fire a wrister last night. Seems like he and Holl often wind up and then hit the D, when they could have put it on net quicker with a wrister and had a body in front to deal with a rebound. Instead, the shot gets blocked and often goes out of the zone.

Glad you brought up Alt, I thought he had a very solid game Saturday and it was good to see him get on the scoresheet. Definately on of the most improved players from Friday to Saturday night.

Just curious as to the lack of playing time for Nico Sacchetti - Is he hurt or what?
 
Re: 2011-12 Minnesota Season Thread (Pride On Ice Returns!)

He's apparently not a top 12 forward on the squad. It happens. Who do you want to sit so he can play?
Although Boyd has played fairly well if I had to choose it would be him, but right now I would not change anything - just asking how it is that he slipped out of the top 12
 
Re: 2011-12 Minnesota Season Thread (Pride On Ice Returns!)

Apparently Khan had a not so friendly tweet about Lucia recently?

No way you replace Boyd with Sachetti - Boyd has way more energy and they don't lost anything by sticking with him.
 
Re: 2011-12 Minnesota Season Thread (Pride On Ice Returns!)

If it's a tweet it's out for public view - or are you saying you actually don't know what it said?

I don't know exactly what it said. I don't want to assume anything more than I already have heard. :)
