Big Ten Hockey 2016-2017

Re: Big Ten Hockey 2016-2017

Should be interesting to see the Gophers and Badgers up in northern NY this upcoming weekend, I'm pretty sure it's the first time for Minnesota and if I remember correctly Wisconsin came to Potsdam in 1991 for the last games at Walker Arena, should be good games as both teams should be around the top of the ECAC.
Will be a good weekend for the home teams if the Gophers only show up for 4 or 5 of the periods on the weekend.

Lucia will love Clarkson and all the 21 year old frosh. Personally I think Minnesota will probably win, I was watching some of the SCSU series and it seemed like the PP moved it well just didn't get many chances, they'll have plenty of chances with the ECAC officiating. 5-3 Minnesota.

After two.

Clarkson wins 6-5 after 3.

I know this isn't B1G related but I just had to mention about how Minnesota-Duluth got the free pass that their exhibition loss to USA Under-18 isn't counting against them in this weeks rankings.

Why should it count? It doesn't count in their record, stats, nothing. All 3 goalies played, they used an extra player. It was an exhibition...nothing should count for it.

And the gophers got screwed that they weren't the unanimous #1 in the national rankings after their blowout of the U-18s... :rolleyes:

I just have a gut feeling that there are SOME teams out there the voters would have taken such a game in consideration against them, just saying. :rolleyes:

A NCAA D1 hockey weekly ranking conspiracy by three different entities? In October? Someone should look into this...

There's also a conspiracy theory I have about 3 former CCHA refs, one of which moved onwards & upwards in the B1G who I wouldn't trust as far as I could throw him. LOL!

Not a bad night for the B1G in non conf play.

5-1 on the night, with the only loss from the ugly helmets.

I don't know about the rest of the conference but we don't play a conference opponent until the first week of Dec. and then we're on break until the New Year.
