Michigan Tech Huskies 2020-21: * Our 100th Anniversary * No Catchy Title Needed *****

Am I the only one who thinks we have a good team this year? Yes, a lot has to go right (injuries, Covid,...) and some puck luck. I think it is reasonable for us to be a top 4 team in the WCHA.

I wouldn’t be surprised if this year’s final regular season week could just like last year’s. Tech certainly has the opportunity to be among the better teams in the league.
 
Looks like there's a Joe S. show today at 10ET.

Also looks like there will be an additional jersey this year that'll be shared some point.

That's the 100th Anniversary Throwback which is supposed to be released this week. Based on the concepts I've seen I'm pretty stoked about the design. I hope the quality of construction is worthy of 100 years of Tech Hockey. The "special" jerseys they have been doing the last few seasons were really cheap quality. But since they were only intended to be worn once and auctioned for charity I get the reasoning. Hopefully the 100th jerseys will be much nicer quality and on par with some of their other current jerseys.

Looks like you got your wish.

Michigan's win today leaves me thinking, what poor recruit, who was all set to show up, got called and canceled in mid-august because some Harvard kid decided to switch.
 
The season starts tomorrow an there is no chatter. Did our thread die or is there nothing to talk about? What do we expect to see from the team? With this be a developmental line-up or will Joe try and see what our top lines can do?

i think everyone is just exhausted. we'll see if this first series gets us firing on all cylinders again.

GO TECH GOLD!
 
I didn't like the game. I saw numerous of our D men fall down or leave their feet for some reason giving the other team opportunities or possession. I saw offensive players not playing offense. I saw the goalie play great, but on the whole, I was disappointed. I think we are lucky we didn't play a good team.
 
I was hoping for a better game. A year of hype made me feel like we would be playing the first game like a frozen four team.

I thought we had great goaltending. A nice surprise. And goaltending is the ticket in this league. We played fairly disciplined, stayed out of the box, for the first game. I liked that. And we had a lot of first NCAA game experiences last night. All good.

Its time to figure out who are the real deal in this team. Find a couple of cone head lines, and find a way to keep the puck in front of the last skater.

Go Tech!
 
Well another day, another disappointment. The schedule isn't easier down the line. LSSU outplayed us, in my mind, in every aspect of the game. Even when they played the back up goalie we couldn't/didn't get any shots or make him do any work., We were sloppy on defense, we lost a lot of defensive battles and got knocked off the puck easily in the offensive end. .
I'd say our team had better take a good look in the mirror because otherwise....

You have to question the coach's strategy in the offseason, because he went and got bigger players in order to battle with these grind teams, and what happens, we still lose the battles?. And now we are slower than before as well. These games were played almost in slow motion compared to other games by other teams. At 8 minutes into the second, there were a total of 12 SOG between the two teams. I'd rather have a high skill/high-speed team any time! at least then it's fun to watch.
