SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

Despite the win, I can't see us going to the Frozen Four or winning a national championship at this point. The team's performance during the second half of the season has just been too inconsistent. Had we played anyone else tonight, we would have been crushed.

As much as I prefer him to some of the other guys that have done color, I am not sure he is going to be doing it much longer. Between coaching Orono and the fact that he should be graduating soon, I would guess that if this season isn't his last next year will be.

I don't know. He only had two years at SCSU before going pro, probably only taking 12 credits per term (four credits per class back then, 16 credits was a full load). With everything he has going on now, he's probably only taking six credits per term now. This is his third year back in school now, right? We might get a couple more out of him. He was commentary for about two-thirds of the games this year while coaching Orono, no reason why that changes going forward.

Crap effort. Geez, that was Western bleeping Michigan. A win is a win I guess. Need a much better effort tomorrow night. In other NCHC action, UND and Denver take care of business pretty easily and UMD puts up a big comeback win. So chalk for Game One albeit in all shapes and forms.

Change our form. Need to be sharper to get a run going.

I am not worried yet. This game was not a 'must win'.
 
Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

Not the best effort. You can tell that once they got to the late stages of the third and in most of OT, Huskies wanted it more. Probably woulda got creamed playing a higher ranked team, but like DB Searle said, it wasn't necessarily a desperation or must win game yet. Huge comeback at Amsoil Arena

BS on wanting it more. Both teams wanted the win, SCSU just simply outplayed them because our boys have more talent than WMU. We just finally played like it rather than skating around with thumbs up our ***es.
 
Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

Huskies down 1-0, 14 min left in the 2nd. Lots of bad passes and missed opportunities.
 
Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

Huskies win 4-2! The first 30 minutes were pretty sloppy, then we dominated the rest of the game. Gives us good momentum going into the Frozen Faceoff.
 
Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

Looks like we'll be playing Denver in the Frozen Faceoff semifinal. I'm a bit nervous about that game because Denver is a much better team now than when we swept them in December.

I fear nobody. We can beat Denver...we can beat UND...we can beat Quinnipiac. Doesn't matter.
 
Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

The frozen faceoff in Minneapolis is looking awesome. Clearly you've got the four best teams playing each other right now and with UND, St Cloud, and UMD all advancing, attendance should be about the best you could hope for. UMD still sits at #13 in the pairwise so that seems relatively safe. With one win this weekend, that would likely cement their status into the NCAA's.
 
Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

Looks like one win this weekend keeps us at a #1 seed. Ran the predictor with all top seeds winning except having the Huskies lose to Denver but then beating UMD in the third place game and Denver beating North Dakota in the championship game.

I'd consider this the worst case scenario that keeps them a #1. (Worst worst case has them losing both games and dropping to a #2 seed. That isn't going to happen).

Win both games and we've got no worse than the #2 overall seed locked in.
 
Re: SCSU 2015-2016 Season: This Year Is Our Year

And game times confirmed. We've got the late game. I do think it is fair they let the regular season winner pick what time they want to play. Hope it backfires though...:D
