Michigan Hockey 2020-2021 Yost town feels like a ghost town

not particularly bad
So, uh, what happened to the season thread? I couldn't find it. I also understand our friend alfa got himself ban-inated. Not sure what he did, wish we were going to Yost so I could ask.

I understand not wanting to talk about the last few games, but we still need a season thread.
 
GOOD QUESTION I've been wondering the same thing. There must be some connection between Alfa getting banned and the thread disappearing. Was he the one who started the thread this season?

As for not wanting to talk about the last couple games, there is some value to getting the sour taste out of our collective mouths.
 
Okay, does ANYONE have ANY idea when the remainder of the schedule will be released? According to the schedule on the MGoBlue website there aren't any more games scheduled this season but we all know there will be more. The B1G website hockey schedule just sends you to each individuals' website.
 
A "reliable source" says it will be out before Christmas. I heard a rumor that Beecher and Bordeleau did not make USA World Junior team due to covid issues. Any truth to that? Sorry to hear about Alfa. Always enjoy his posts. Is he eligible to return?
 
World Juniors tourney Team USA on the tube tonight (Saturday 12/26) 9:30 pm EST vs. Austria on NHLTV

Ban hammer is the ban hammer, even if there's no real idea what happened.

Alas, all is not lost.....

For the upcoming half of the season- it's hard to judge what we will be getting. We've seen brilliance, and we've seen them struggle, and honestly, the curious one is Mann- he was so solid last spring and the beginning of the season that it seemed like a lock that he would be repeating that trend. But he's been pulled a few times this season- which means that both he and the D are struggling. Sometimes.

Hopefully, Mel's second half boost happens again, and the team surges after the holidays.
 
Congratulations to Jason Botterill who has been named Assistant General Manager of the new Seattle Kraken!
 
Your players at the World Juniors did us all proud! After rooting so hard for them it's going to seen strange for awhile going back to being rivals.
 
Back to play tonight starting a home and home with Sparty.

One of the biggest college hockey rivalries out there, especially in the B1G. So it should be in BTN, right? Nope. Michigan wrestling v Rutgers, Have to have a subscription to BTN+ to see tonight's game. Tomorrow afternoon we can see the game from EL. Afternoon.

Man, I could have sworn that B1G hockey is popular.

Wrestling. Lovely. I feel your pain.
 
Man, how many games have we lost after a blowout win.... Worse that the team lost after going ahead late in the game. Lots of lessons need to be learned.
 
Past several seasons I've felt good about Ohio State's chances at Yost, this season I'm more apprehensive as so far OSU has been a 50% team at best this season.
Regardless I'm bummed can't be there in person to watch it as Yost certainly has one of the best atmospheres for college hockey.

Sad I won't get to say "hi" in person, or have you meet the parasite.

I don't know what to think of any games this season, but I do like our chances this year against OSU as opposed to recent years.

Yeah, it's bummer on many fronts. Typically the wife & I would be there for the series along with my cousin and his wife who live in Northville and they try to keep me in my place but he's looking for some bragging rights and is bummed if you guys get the win he can't rub it in in person.
I just hope you don't hammer us like you did to Sparty last Friday! I'll be looking forward to when I do get to meet the parasite, the way things are I just hope it will be before she starts kindergarten!
 
For most of that game, I thought we were going to get shut out- even with us getting amazing chances, Nappier was able to stop them. Thankfully, Moyle took some out of his confidence, and loosed up the grip on our sticks.

BTW, did anyone watch the game? The radio guys were pretty convinced that OSU's goal came after an offsides- they were pretty shocked it was not called back. Just wondering if that was biased or real.

I sure hope the pandemic draws back enough by March- I really want to see some of these freshmen live, as I don't expect to see them next season.
