Miac 2010-2011

ultimately the number of shots really doesn't matter. It really doesn't dictate who is good and who is bad, as has been shown for many years by GAC. Yes they are good, but the number of shot they put up often didn't correlate with goals. They probably have one of the worst shooting percentages in the nation. I would rather play for a team that can score 2 goals on 15 shots than a team that scores 1 on 40.

Really the only people helped/hurt by poor shot counting are the goalies. Undercounting hurts their stats. Overcounting helps. So in reality, the statistic that should be taken with a grain of salt is SV%.

I Agree with you. Some teams shoot all their shots from the blue line not anything close range. I just see people not just on the MIAC college page but all over that always say "yea the were out shot by 30 shots" I guess that's what bugs me you need to really see the game not the box score.

Should be an interesting weekend in the MIAC

This is when the fun starts, score watching and there is always a score that you say WHAT? But that's the fun part.
 
Re: Miac 2010-2011

Well this weekend definitely didn't clear anything up. St Kate's gets swept by Bethel. Concordia beats Gustavus, but has it waived off. St Thomas splits with St Olaf. Gustavus gets the leg up on the Tommies, with that 1 point and I don't see them relinquishing it, but then again I didnt' see them tying Concordia.
 
Re: Miac 2010-2011

Here we go almost forgot been to busy at work. Bold winners

Friday, February 11:
Bethel VS St. Thomas Split To very good teams
Hamline VS Gustavus Adolphus Sweep To much fire power
St. Benedict VS Saint Mary's Split Fun games to watch
St. Olaf VS Augsburg Sweep Just to much for the Auggies
Concordia (MN) VS St. Catherine Sweep Concordia has to much fire power to lose

I missed on the St. Thomas vs Bethel game. It looked like Bethel played 2 good games.
 
Re: Miac 2010-2011

Bethel vs Augsburg Sweep

Saint Mary's vs Gustavus Adolphus Split Should be fun
St. Thomas vs St. Catherine Sweep
St. Olaf vs St. Benedict Split

Gustavus just dominated the game last night. It will be interesting at St Mary's today, that place is tough to play and you know Coach Manor will have his gals ready to play.

Maybe his goalie was ready to play this afternoon. Big weekend for the Cardinals against the Olies in 6 days.

They had a goal waived off in the second that would have tied it 2-2. Instead the ref's called goaltender interference. It was a very questionable call. Reffing was poor throughout the series.

I wouldn't be cocky @ this point. ST thomas, bethel, and concordia could all dethrone GAC this year. I really don't think GAC will represent the MIAC this year

I was not being cocky at all. They are the most consistent team this year in the MIAC. Yes they have had some close games but they still find away to win. Concordia might not even make the playoffs, they have to play St. Thomas next weekend.

i'm aware of that. I think they at least split with st thomas and as long as St Olaf/St Marys don't split, then they will be in. We'll just have to see though.

I beg to differ, they seem pretty inconsistant. Yes, there were many close games. Most of which were with teams they should have outscored 2:1. There are also losses to teams that should have swung the other way in order to "rule the MIAC". If anything, they've proven that they have lost their rule of the MIAC that they had for the past few years. My prediction is that they lose the MIAC tourney.

OK tell me who did they lose to that they should have blown out? They only have 3 losses.

Never said they should have blown out the teams they lost to. But close games like 2-1 with olaf, 2-1 with ben's, 3-3 with concordia, 2-1 with hamline (2x). All those should have been easier wins than they actually were. You could argue that in any of those games that they "dominated" play, but at any moment those 2-1 games could randomly tie up. You can also do some research, as I did, and say similar things about RF. Go right ahead. RF did indeed have games that were closer than they should have been. Then again they have zero losses on the season and beat GAC 4-2, so I wouldn't push that topic.

It really does not matter what the scores were. The final result is wins and losses. The MIAC this year has been very competitive.
