NMU 2011-12 Season Thread

Re: NMU 2011-12 Season Thread

What a great weekend for Wildcat hockey. They currently sit at #9 in the Pairwise and have played the toughest schedule in the country. Not too shabby!
 
Re: NMU 2011-12 Season Thread

Can't say I could have imagined that I could use a series against LSSU as a measuring stick, but this will be a good weekend to see where the Cats stand on the season... Put up or shut up time...
 
Re: NMU 2011-12 Season Thread

I asked this in Lake State's thread too but I figured I would ask here. Where is the away team fans section in Taffey? Does one even exsist? Is anyone going to the game Friday night?
 
Re: NMU 2011-12 Season Thread

*Bump*

Wish I could be in the yoop for this game. Hopefully the team keeps up what they did last weekend.
 
Re: NMU 2011-12 Season Thread

Intense third period! Great comeback until the 15:34 mark...then the wheels came off.

Do you think Coreau is the starter from here on?

I don't think anyone will be handed the starting job for the season at this point. My guess is that Coreau gets the nod on Friday. What happens after that goes game by game, as it has for the past month/

I'm okay with that as long as the duo continues to perform well. I just hope that the defense (including forwards) in front of the goalies plays a bit better. Heartbreaking to read the texts that the 'Cats tied it up only to have the wheels fall off.

I was very impressed with how this team doesn't quit. Easily could have packed it in after the first; but they were just 4:26 from taking it to OT.

At that point, maybe NMU needs to just start playing the trap and not allowing the opposing team to get through the neutral zone. :D
 
Re: NMU 2011-12 Season Thread

What do Yale, Michigan, NoDak, Union, Colgate, and Cornell all have in common?

This isn't the answer you're looking for, I'm guessing, but all six of those teams currently rank below NMU in PairWise, RPI, and KRACH.

You got half of it right. The other half is all six of those teams also currently rank ABOVE NMU in the USCHO poll.

Did you notice that in the previous 4 games they allowed just one goal in each?
 
Re: NMU 2011-12 Season Thread

I did! It's what we knew the 'Cats were capable of doing. I just want it to continue.

By my rough estimate, the Cats can only lose 4 games the rest of the season to safely stay in the top 15 of PWR.

I think that may be a bit strong. A few playoff wins will help.

After going 8 - 7 - 3 so far, 12 and 4 the rest of the way seems a pretty tall order.

Tech, Alaska 2x, @MSU 2x, @Tech, @Miami 2x, Ferris 2x, @ BG 2x, @UoM 2x, LSSU 2x.

Where do you guys see Northern's W's & L's ?

Hopefully it's two in Miami, just found out I am going. Can't wait. Anybody know if the Tech game is on the computer Friday?

I could see the team going 9-7 the rest of the regular season. I believe that if they take care of business against TUC teams it will result in a bid with a good run to Detroit.

I might be expecting to much, but sweeps of tech, Alaska, BG,LSSU,

Splits with Miami, UM, and Ferris.

The Miami series could go either way.
I can't see them getting swept though.

Go Cats!
