Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
A neat little fact i just checked out: We have as many goals this year(15) after 3 games as we did last year after 8 games. The same 8 game stretch we actually managed to win some games, too.

I hope we don't turn into Ferris state this season...
But nice job fighting back tonight.
It feels like old times again...being pretty disappointed with a loss, rather than just accepting it.

... OK, perhaps it's not that bad, but still, the penalties are becoming a big problem.
At this rate, I'm sure some UIC hockey alums would blush at our box scores...

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
I think the silver lining is it's a correctable problem - especially in a young team - and was MSU's biggest undoing lastnight. It's a learning process on the road. You have to overcome mental fatigue (which there may have been coming into the game) and by the third period it became physical. That leads to dumb penalties.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
Here are my 3 stars of the weekend
#3 Got a big goal from someone not on the top line
#2 How about Drew "Palmy" Palmisano and Bobby "Al" Jarosz?!
#1 We did it. We actually snuck out of Oxford with 3 points

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
Considering the cloud of sourness surrounding campus from the football loss tonight, three points in Oxford is a hell of a silver lining.
Huge, huge win, and a huge, huge weekend. Two very competitive games, and - something I wouldn't have expected whatsoever entering the weekend - a win against the best team in the country. We're not that 9th-to-11th place team everybody was projecting us to be this season.
Now the real question, loosely pasted from the other thread: Will this, combined with the overall good start, bring people back to Munn for the Western game on Friday? (My preliminary answer is "no," though I'd like to stay optimistic.)

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
I sure hope people weren't blitzed with football coverage (pun semi-intended) enough to miss the win that came about 2 minutes later. I hope this is worth a couple hundred fans at least. We get a few goals against Western at home and that sure helps too. There are sure enough gimmicks going on on Friday to make it fun.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
Well i think we officially now can be really excited and optimistic about this team and season! I was honestly hoping we would just stick around with Miami and play with them and any points would be a huge bonus but man, we nearly had 6! I guess you could also argue we also nearly had 0 but whatever!
I was also hoping Bowling Green would be solid this year but it looks like they are about where we were mid-season last year.
Now we can look forward to an undefeated Western who may or may not be better than years past. I think we will win a couple this weekend though. Maybe even break 4500 in attendance?!?!?!

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
Wan't it great to get that win before coming home for 3 out of 4? That sets up well for us.
I hope we can break 4500. We may have had 5500 for the Broncos last time around but that was before the collapse.
Too much going against BGSU this year. The looked good to close out last year but ... new coach, new system, no goaltending left and they just hemhorraged players last season and after.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
I had this vague idea that we'd have an 8th-place team - sure as heck was hedging my bet! I had no clue these guys could put the puck in the net at this pace. Though I did believe we'd have decent goaltending.

Re: Michigan State 2009-2010
If we can get a pair of wins this weekend, i think we can push into the top 15 but Western always brings it strong against us, even if they're not actually any good.

We're in danger of not sucking.
Although ... there are still moments - we'd better come better prepared tomorrow in K-zoo or it won't be a good result.
AAP - I finally got the full version of your dance routine. Impressive.
