Kind of feel weird saying this, Michigan and you aren't really hockey rivals and I hate miami so much so....I really hope you guys beat the living s*** out of them. It was great knowing miami got swept this weekend.

Yeah, we know. Football is where our rivalry with you lies and Michigan State is your big rival in hockey. It's been kind of obvious to all that the arrogance of many Miami fans has grown with their program and what I think is funny they've stolen all the Michigan fans chants! But you will have to wait awhile for any such happy moment as an OSU victory over Miami as we don't play them until early December.

The Bucks are back in the Schotts arena and are hosting the Eskimoes. Let's get the fans pumped up and wish for a home sweep. " GO BUCKS GO. "

Technically they're "POLAR BEARS," but I certainly support your sentiments.

At least we don't need a PSA telling us how to do them

Although I'm not crazy about it Ohio State fans can take credit for one chant that's all ours and no one's stolen yet which is the famous "AND MICHIGAN STILL SUCKS!" chant shouted out every game when the last minute in the period is announced. Oh yeah, and we don't cave to political correctness paleface. Ugh! lol!

Watched the game on the internet tonight. I thought they got lazy after taking that 1-0 lead but also did a great job of converting on that PP to tie up the game. Once again Cal did his job and gave the team a chance to win. How about Fritz coming through in the shootout, thats a big 2 points tonight. Going for a 5 point weekend tomorrow.

I was at the game tonight and am frustrated that we still have nominal puck control and can't on most tries to get a good pass off or for that matter have the player getting the pass to even be looking for it. Alaska TOTALLY dominated us on possession in our end the last several minutes of regulation and we were lucky they didn't get a winning goal. We completely screwed the pooch on the power play we had in overtime and Oddo was playing hot dog hockey when we had the beautiful 3 on 1 breakaway and he blew it by totally ignoring his teammates and taking the shot himself from the faceoff circle with the goalie squared to him and ready. I have no doubts Coach will have something specific to say about that during film reviews! Plus side - we got the shootout win and points but it was a game ugly as the stepchild.

Goalie Cal Heeter won the game for the Bucks in the OT shootout. He also had to make some big saves in the 3rd period and regulation OT.

Finally checking in this season. Pretty pleased so far this season. A lot of young and new players on the ice. I have seen some nice things out of Dzingel. Really like Matt Johnson so far too. I can remember at least 4 point shots blocked on the PK. Still having those head banging turnovers in the defensive zone that we need to clean up. Was able to see a nice victory Friday night in EL. Alaska controlled the play the last 2/3 of the game last night so Heeter stole a couple points. Go Bucks!

Re: Ohio state " buckeyes " 2011 / 2012 season.

This team has definitely taken a step in the right direction, let's just hope they can clean it up. The freshman are good, but the play of Chris Crane this season, and the way he has really stepped up has impressed me a ton. Heeter had an excellent game tonight and finally beat Alaska. Can't believe that lousy team in oxford is still winless in conference play. I'll take all the cusion we can get at this point!

No letting off the gas pedal tonight. Huuuge to get 3 goals on the major penalty

Re: Ohio state " buckeyes " 2011 / 2012 season.

OSUmab, nice to see a little chatter tonight! Mrs 86 and I were there and Alaska really dug themselves a hole with that five minute major. From where we were sitting, it looked like a good call (head shot). Great weekend picking up five points against a team some predicted would sweep us. As you so aptly put it, we did not let off the gas pedal tonight, that's for sure! It's been great watching this team develop. The kids go after the puck relentlessly, they never give up on a puck. I am seeing these young guys grow up. If Coach Osiecki and his staff continue to recruit and develop these players, we will be a tough out for anyone in the years to come. If you're a Buckeye hockey fan, you can't help but be excited about the direction this program is headed in. Great game by our kids tonight.

This team is going places maybe not this year but soon. they have improved from game to game most of the time so far this year. Crain has been probably the most improved player on the team so far this year and getting better still. Cal again was solid when needed tonight. Not as many passes to no one in the defensive zone tonight. Lets see how they handle the non conference series next weekend should be able to get at least a win and a tie. Handleing success for a young team can be tough at times lets hope OZ doesnt let them feel to good about themsleves this week.

I thought that penalty was a great hit from my view at center ice club level. I believe we are seeing the making of something really special here.

Re: Ohio state " buckeyes " 2011 / 2012 season.

I wonder where my hockey buddy is this year? He's pretty quite this year so far. LAKESTEDPUCK are you still alive!!!! LOL.

5 points out of the max 6 points is good when you get them. The big test for the Bucks will be when they play a powerhouse team that can put the puck in the net. The first half of the year is looking really good so far. GO BUCKS.

Re: Ohio state " buckeyes " 2011 / 2012 season.

I'm amazed we got the win having 10 penalties called against us but the 5 minute major Alaska gave up set the pace with our scoring 3 PP goals. I'm not going to be as critical as I normally am about taking stupid penalties as it seemed the ref's were calling every ticky tacky little thing that on most nights would never get a whistle blown.

I may have missed this somewhere, but does anyone know the reason behind McCormick not dressing either game or Dzingle on Friday? I'm assuming injury but hadnt read anything either way.

McCormick got hurt either in practice the week of michigan state or during the last game at ND and Dzingle got hurt on Thursday vs Alaska.

Dang, hope they can get healthy soon. Both have been playing well this year.

Big hits. Hope they get better real soon.

Re: Ohio state " buckeyes " 2011 / 2012 season.

Dzingel should be back this Friday. His Facebook page said "minor" problem. No idea on McCormick.

Just my thought - they probably are shooting for getting everyone back for No. Michigan in two weeks. Might not see the slightly injured guys until then.
