2-1 Michigan thru 2. We're not playing poorly. Michigan goal off of a defender's skate, and the 2nd one was one that I thought Motte should have had.
2-2 tie. I'll take it.

Good "shootout video review practice", thoAnd then we had a video review during a shootout that didn't count in the standings. Lovely.

Right, it's a tie, end of story. It's reflected in both teams records and in the eyes of the NCAA. Neither team picked up a W last night. They played each other even. To have a shootout with non-con teams is simply an exhibition; it has nothing to do with the game that was played.
It annoys me that one of the guys at work today says, "Michigan won last night"; one of my customers says, "Michigan won last night;" the Holland Sentinel (where Nagelvoort is from) writes that Michigan won the game 3-2. No, I'm sorry, Michigan did not win the game last night.
Correct. The game was a tale of missed opportunities and strange goals. The proper ending was achieved, though. Both deserved something out of it.
Yup, I will never complain about a tie on the road. Come to Big Rapids next year and we might get more past Nagelvoort.
Out of curiosity, if a road win is worth more than a home win in the computers, then isn't a road tie worth more than a home tie?
