Gophers-Badgers: Not Good Enough for Mariucci

Re: Gophers-Badgers: Not Good Enough for Mariucci

:p

But you know what I mean - bad ice, especially new bad ice, often takes some time for the goal moorings to set up properly.
They could've delayed the start of the period for that then - instead of wasting lots of time on pointless replay reviews. :p
 
Re: Gophers-Badgers: Not Good Enough for Mariucci

Badgers still came on top because they have some nice defense themselves...Craig Smith is among our most valuable players. Great effort from him tonight...Gudmanson was great tonight...What a great hockey game
I agree that UW didn't play well
You never cease to amaze me...

We also didn't get outplayed by a fairly wide margin. I'm glad you cleared that up.
That's the second time you have pulled a concept out of my posts that was never implied. I thought UW-Madison was supposed to have fairly competitive admissions:confused:

I agree that UW didn't play well, but we didn't have to considering the opponent. We also didn't get outplayed by a fairly wide margin. I'm glad you cleared that up.

Either way if the BADgers continue to play like they did on Friday you can say good bye to even playing in the national championship game let alone the Final Five.

A bad game this weekend is better than a bad game in two weeks.
Even the most "homer" of a fan has to admit that anyone trying to win the title will have to contend with Denver and/or Miami.

I would pay to see that.
Can we make it a 3-way fight and add SCSU Euro? :D

I do like Monday nights... like the one back in the fall when Brett Favre kicked the crap out of Green Bay... do you guys remeber that one?
It happened twice actually, so it's hard to keep them straight.

Today's game - I heard Eaves was seen coming out of the refs hotel late last night around 2 am....look for Sconi to get the first 6 power plays again today.... that Eaves really knows how to create a happy ending!:eek:
 
Re: Gophers-Badgers: Not Good Enough for Mariucci

Its funny that Rinkpig made the comment that we all cant think of anything clever to say to him, so we are just going to all negative rep me.
Well, guess what little piggy just negative reped me? LOL

I bet the Badgers go farther in the playoffs than the rodents do. :cool:
 
Re: Gophers-Badgers: Not Good Enough for Mariucci

How does Woog still have a job doing play by play? Don't get me wrong, Paul Braun and Bill Howard were "homers" from the drop of the puck, but at least in a widely broadcast TV game Braun could dial those tendencies back a bit. And further, Woog is just not very good. He has spent more time talking about hockey in general and ignoring the game that is right in front of him.
 
Re: Gophers-Badgers: Not Good Enough for Mariucci

The ice for the Michigan game was only bad in a couple of spots. The entire sheet last night was pretty bad. At times it looked like they were using a super-ball and not a puck.

Penalties
Wisconsin 8 for 16 minutes
Minnesota 7 for 14 minutes

When did the refs give Wisconsin the game? And before you point to the disallowed goal, read the rules regarding a man in the crease that has already been posted in this thread.

This show how little you know about the game of hockey. When the team who scores first wins around 70% of the time... do you think maybe just maybe it makes a difference when Sconi gets 6 of the first 7 PP's?? Of course the refs will even it out later in the game to save face; but the damage was done. It matters when they are called more than the overall number.

Their first words after the first rodent goal were something to the effect of "Let's see if they overturn THAT goal."

Both overturns were completely legit, but Dumb & Dumber wouldn't let those facts get in the way of a good whine.

Babies. :( :( :(

And how did that turn out? Oh yeah, an interception at the end of the game in field goal position. We know how that song goes, now you get the diva soap opera. At least GB has a good QB ready to play. How is Sage doing? Is he getting the fan base revved up for the season??? :D I hear Fran Tarkenton is still in shape.

If you don't Frank and Doug, why don't you listen to the Badger announcers? Or does your crappy little team not even have announcers that go to road games?? I am guessing that is the case; superior programs like ours don't have that problem. You have a case of the big brother envy syndrome going on don't you? That's funny!

No, the reason that I'm not listening to the UW announcers (who are at the game) is the radio is actually delayed a solid 5 seconds behind the TV. It's a coin flip if the delay is worth not throwing up in my mouth a little every time Woog says anything.
