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

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

OK, after a long hiatus (too lazy to make a new password), I'm back. Mostly because I'm curious how close Shirtless is to putting in another order of the cream GLI jerseys? I'd like to get on that list.

As to Hockey.. I was in Houghton for the UAH series. Tech looked good Friday night, and got the puck luck bounces. One of the those games where everything we did worked out right and everything they did, not so much. Saturday, after a slow start, we didn't look bad, but couldn't get anything to bounce our way around the net. I didn't see the "15 break-a-ways." UAH did have a much better game Sat. and did have some better chances than the night before. A solid game out of Kero (needs to control his rebounds a little better) and the other freshman played very well, with Gould getting a couple of great opportunities. Need to finish on the chances.

Tech will have to raise it a notch this weekend in AA.

We are working on a new order, getting pretty close to enough interest in the cream jerseys.

If you're interested in any authentic Michigan Tech hockey jerseys, fill out the google form and I'll put you on the list.

Need to check which ones of current set I don't have, I know for sure I have the cream and don't have the white but forget if I have gold or black. Will you allow customization again, need a Petan and Phillips jersey.

Yes as long as they're graduated

I see we have a new recruit. Mitch Meek from the Penticton Vees. Defenseman.

Anyone know who made the trip this weekend!

They posted a picture at the bridge again. I believe they took 25. My best guess based on the picture is all 3 goalies and every player that has played a game so far except Evan Anderson, plus I believe Pederson made the trip.
 
Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

Oh man. The Techsters better plan on scoring five goals every game in order to win.
 
Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

Goaltending has got to improve, if we are to have any chance at anything, it can't continue to be this terrible.
 
Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

Rough way to lose a game.


Mel's postgame with Dirk:
Some good things, but can't give up 4 goals on the road and expect to win
We got some bounces, but we've got to learn the situation the last min of the game, have to control the puck
We were lazy getting back to the puck in the 3rd
We've got to learn from that to get better and beat good teams like Michigan in their building
Good puck movement on the PP, even though no PP goals
Their goalie made some outstanding saves
Need more players playing a team game, too many players trying to do too much individually, will be close until everyone is on the same page
Not satisfied with just being okay, no more moral victories, need to find a way to win
message to team - we need everbody, everbody has to play the right way
Kero had a good game, but soft 2nd goal and bad turnover at the end
 
Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

I didn't listen to the game to be honest, I am at the point that I can't bring myself to listen to them with how bad they've been, did it actually go to OT or did we give up a SH goal in the last minute of regulation to lose like it sounds like?
 
Re: MICHIGAN TECH.... 2016-17 season. The 96th season of Hockey.

I will say I hope Kero gets the start again tomorrow, I feel like we need to choose a goalie and stick with them for now, best way for them to improve I'd say.

Much of tonight's loss is on Kero. Gotta start Wintjes tomorrow.

I can understand that too, it's really hard when none of the 3 have really had any particularly good performances this season.

Wow, that's just sad and pathetic. This is why I am done with this team for now, can't stand that heartbreak.

Glad you're done. Don't think you are a true fan of the team. If you were, you would stick through thick and thin. You are more of what they call a Fair Weather Fan. The kind who jumps on board for the team when they win.

Lol, no. I went to every home game I could when I was up there through some pretty bad years, and listened to every game I possibly could after graduating for the past 6 years. Just depressing knowing what this team is capable of and seeing this start.

Tech is going to be real good as the season goes on. No one is going to want to play us. but we have to get the goaltending fixed and the pk wasn't all that hot tonight either.
We do that and start to believe in ourselves a bit more and we will be really good. it'll be tough, and we need all the players to have good games, but we have some real talent and despite our record, we will be good.

Like I said, that's what's so disappointing, the only question mark I thought we really had coming into this season was goaltending, and that has definitely been a huge sore spot, but I was not worried about defense or offense, but neither of those has been great. They do seem to be improving, maybe it's a matter of chemistry and getting the team to gel, Mel definitely alluded to that in post game comments, it just sucks seeing a team with this much talent with a record like this.
