MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

Maybe it's time for some forward line shuffling. I think moving Lesperance with Heinonen and Steman may give Tech a potential strong scoring line. Heinonen & Lesperance were a strong combo last season and Steman & Lesperance had a good freshman season playing together.
Got to try something. 3 games with the same 3 top lines has not worked. Also need to make power play changes. Power play has been pathetic.

Mel's one of the best in the game. Over the course of the season, he'll make adjustments as he sees fit to give the team the best chance to win.

I'm not at all discouraged with the start. I think sure, we needed one of the first three, but we have a lot of talent and looking around at the other games in college hockey, we could be right there at the end.

2.5 minutes in, already on the PK, apparently our team refuses to learn anything.

Also, anyone else watching in WCHA feed and lose sound?
 
Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

7 minutes in, being thoroughly outplayed in every facet of the game, looking absolutely terrible, 1 shot on goal 8 minutes in now. This team is terrible, just absolutely pathetic.

2-0 MSUM.

Dear god we suck, no offense, no defense and no goaltending. I knew this could be a down year but I didn't think we'd be this bad.

3-0, this team looks as bad as any Tech team I have ever seen including the 2010-11 4 win team.

The only thing worse than the game play is the play by play. These clowns aren't calling the action, they're just lamenting Tech's season. Why can't I get dirk on the feed?

i had no issues with the sound.. the thing to me is the urgency. We got beat to the puck all period. It's like we are playing about 2/3 speed.And we are taking a lot of penalties, and if we are going to do that we have to have a better PK unit.

They're bad, but let's be honest, our play is way worse.

2/3 is about our save percentage on the season.

And I know I referenced the 2010-11 4 win team, but they at least started out 3-0-2.

I bought the feed for the away games. Very disappointed with the feed. Not smooth at all very choppy. it almost pauses while the players go up the ice. Anyone else with the same problem?

I think my initial problem was actually my computer for some reason, it froze right as the game started and I didn't have sound after that but I rebooted and everything worked OK. The feeds have never been great but it doesn't seem any worse this year and I don't notice too much choppiness.
 
Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

Wait, what!?! I just looked at the WCHA standings and Alabama-Huntsville is in first place.

I sure hope Tech gets a win tonight.
 
Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

Sigh, 30 seconds into the second and to the PK again. Can't keep playing shorthanded, there is no way we can win this year with this many penalties.

The Mavericks announcers are horrible. No life in their play by play at all. Listening to Dirk, but his broadcast is way ahead of the action.

I used to try and sync Dirk with the away broadcasts but it's just too much of a pain and I've started dealing with the away announcers.

When was the last time we won a face-off in the offensive zone on a PP? I honestly can't remember.
