Ohio State 24-25 Are We Back Yet?

Ohio State completes the sweep of Lake Superior with a 6-2 win. We controlled all aspects of the game. I'm very impressed with how well the chemistry has developed with this team. I'm really looking forward to our series next weekend at Michigan State. I truly believe we can prove wrong the pre season Big Ten coaches prediction of us being the last place team. :p
 
Great weekend. LSSU is down, but the Buckeyes came out and did what they had to do and dominated every facet of the game. As I posted earlier, I was a bit shocked at the lack of respect that we received given the strong end of season improvements we were showing last year. The Wiscy sweep isn't apparently what it seemed, so this coming weekend at Sparty will be the real test of where Rohlik has this team. 7-0-1 and ranked, Baby. I'll take it.

We've had some good wins at Munn and I've been there for many of them but this season instead of a late January, early February series there as usual we have the home-away schedule flipped. Also we usually get seats by Ohio State's bench there, but the last time to our disappointment the hone & visitors benches were flipped apparently as part of Munn's renovation and we had no idea when we bought our tickets.
 
Great Weekend for the Buckeyes getting a sweep. We will find out how good this team is next weekend in East Lansing.
 
Looking at Sparty's schedule so far the only quality win was against BC but they also lost 3-0 and went to OT against the Lakers, a team we handled easily but I'll give them the consideration that it was their first game of the season as we struggled in ours as well. Their other wins were against weak opponents. No disrespect meant but I don't see yet their pre season ranking being accurate.
 
I think we've been slighted.
In USCHO's College Hockey Roundup why did unranked Wisconsin who we swept have their series against Notre Dame who's ranked lower than us get mentioned and not a thing about our sweep of Lake Superior?
 
Huge weekend coming up. First real measuring stick for where we are at. Some issues closing/starting periods this weekend which will need to be cleaned up, especially if Munn is rocking. By far the most skilled team we have played to date- if this weekend goes well I like our chances going forward.

Anyone making the trip to Munn? Haven't bought tickets yet but I'm thinking of making the trip on Saturday.

I wish I could go but I have to be up before the crack of dawn Sunday so a road trip back home Saturday night is out of the question. I seriously doubt tickets are still available through the MSU ticket office but there's usually some on the resale sites. Hope you can go and be there for a Buckeye victory.

I wish I could but ill be in Houston watching the Lions this weekend. Good Luck getting tickets up there.
 
I checked and current no tickets left but they said some would be released at Munn's box office an hour before gam time. it could be two or twenty, no way of knowing how many will be available. That's a long drive on a chance of getting tickets and I saw tickets are available on MSU's authorized resale site they have the link to on their ticket office site. They won't be cheap and you'll have the resale fees in addition to the ticket asking price.
 
I fine it peculiar we got no love considering our late season surge. You can't convince me the coaches are unbiased.

I thought they would be picked around 5th just because they lost the top scorer and top 2 defenseman for the 2nd year in a row. That is hard to replace but they have done a nice job of playing as a group for the first 8 games.
 
From the articles I've read this week Sparty is well aware that we'll be a handful this weekend, it should be a great series.
GO BUCKS!
 
It was a good game and I'm surprised we didn't do better. Allowing a shorthanded goal put us in a difficult position. It was great to see us score late but Sparty sealed it with the empty net goal from deep in their end.
 
Not what you want getting swept but Michigan state right now is the better team. The PP has to get going or its going to be difficult to beat good teams. One big take away is that the Buckeyes didnt create enough space and really didnt get good scoring chances while Michigan state got to the dirty areas and scored 2 or 3 goals from that.
 
Yes, a disappointing series, just didn't see the team show up that dominated the Lakers. We seemed to be out hustled and reluctant to get physical to take their opponents off the puck. When the Spartans got their cycle going in our end we did nothing to attack and disrupt it allowing them to pick their moment to shoot.The Spartan also excelled on getting into position for the rebounds dominating puck possession. Well it's early enough in the season to minimize the damage and learn from our mistakes.
