I'm sad. But Air Force is still beating St, Clouud.
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

You deserved the win. A broken stick was the difference. G** D*****. What a game.
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

Air Force is going to beat #1 St, Clouud
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

First game I got to watch this season. Nice game from Gould. Everything was going wrong for Auk. Birks' luck was almost as bad.

But hey, great season. This team went much farther than I thought they would. Hopefully this shows potential recruits that there will not be a dropoff without Marv.
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

Tough way for Auk to end his Husky career. He is just a super player to watch, I will miss watching him in black and gold.

Thank you to the team for such an exciting finish to the season. I was hoping against hope I'd see them in st Paul, but I'll still be the guy wearing the Husky sparkle jersey at the Xcel.

I like this team!!!

welp...........

there's only one question,
how many days until hockey season starts?
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

Heck of a game. Heck of a run to end the season. NO reason to hang the heads.

Best wishes to the Seniors as they embark upon the pro careers.
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

Sorry guys.
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

I am so proud of this team. They owned Notre Dame down the stretch of the 1st OT. This was a Championship capable team. It always takes a little puck luck to win the championship. In this case, it was lying on the goal line. Oh my gosh. Great game.

Sitting in Sioux Falls watching on my phone and routing for both 4s to make it. Sorry it ended that way.

I have to assign an error to Tech's goaltender too. When the puck came into Tech's zone he stopped the first shot with the body, the puck dropped in front of him and he panicked and swatted it into the corner with his stick. With one of your guys with no stick the last thing you want is to keep it alive in your zone.
By all rights he should have gotten the glove on it and stopped the play so all his guys would have had lumber. Faceoff in your zone would have been the lesser of two evils.

Melrose is an embarrassment to all hockey.. honestly can't ESPN get someone other than a washed up has been coach/ mediocre player to do their broadcasts??

Honestly the best broadcast duo ESPN had was Allen Bestwick and Colby Cohen two years ago. Allen Bestwick and Billy Jaffe last year was almost as good.

Buccigross and Melrose are insufferable.
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

Can't really say that a team that led for all of 2 mins the entire game deserved to win it. I thought our faceoffs were shaky from midway through the 3rd period on, and Auk and Birks made some bad decisions with their passes.

Sucks to lose the way we did. Best of luck to the seniors.

Hopefully Reinke and Luchinni stick around.

do they ever do any prep work for the games? Melrose always sounds like he walked in from the street and sat down and started talking. Bucci is almost as bad. I bet most of our college announcers are better than those two.

Of course. Buccigross has already told us THREE TIMES in the first five minutes that Clarkson has "beaten Providence twice this year." :D Excellent preparation...hey, if you like someone who talks continuously, you've found your guy!
 
Re: Michigan Tech 2017-18 The Joe Shawhan Era Continues - Getting Better Everyday

I can tolerate Bucci in small doses. Melrose is always insufferable everytime he opens his mouth.

I can't disagree with this assessment.
