tUMD @ UW-M - Don't worry Badger fans, Crandall won't be playing...

Zengerlee has been super-creative as the first line C (7g 18a). I see a lot of Craig Smith in Barnes (7g 10a), who is a first line wing. Goaltending has been solid, no obviously softies and a few insanely great saves. UW's downfall will be thier PK, which is AWEFUL (73%). I see UMD's pk is ok (80%), and both teams have a 22% pp.

UW's youth has been an issue in as far as they don't come out and play hard right off the bat. The coaches have commented that this team practices harder than it plays in games.

UW has also been missing 2 players due to injury for most of the year, Lee, a talented jr F, and McCabe, a very talented fr D, which has thrusted more inexperienced and less talented players into the fray.

And yes, I want revenge for the screw job UW got last year in OT.[/QUOTE]

Alleged tripping call on Gardiner on a break-out lead to a UMD game winner in over-time last year.

Mike Connolly hooked a UW player to the ground, got the puck, and we scored. Yes it was bushleague. But the game was tied at that point and I believe it was in overtime, so anything could have still happened after that point even if the penalty was called.

Nope it was completely justified. :)

University of Wisconsin - Madison :)


EVERY school has a city it is located in :)

So has Wisconsin's troubles been related to (1) youth and (2) inexperience?

1-Yes.
2-Yes.

Bulldogs have experience and lots of talent with a talented goalie I see a tough series but a sweep bringing the Bulldogs to 1st in the WCHA after the Gophers split their series with Tech

Anyone want to guess which OT "screw job" against UMD that I am still upset with?

(I'll let go of it when I'm **** good and ready)

Good call; SCSU plays UW four times, tUMD twice and so UW wins will help our SOS more. Thanks for justifying my anti-Bulldogness this weekend

Just telling you what I would do if I was in your position.

Heehee. Explain to me how a call in a regular season that costs you an extra point somehow causes as much butthurt as unfairly losing a regional or F4 game...

Perhaps Badger fans should eat more cheese as a comfort thing. You know, like, Barry Alvarez has.

PS: recall Eaves :)

Not what I'm talking about. See the link in my sig.
 
Re: tUMD @ UW-M - Don't worry Badger fans, Crandall won't be playing...

It's odd that I can't get my sig through my phone. Look at my post before last. Or go through my profile.

It's the game where we lost in OT ten seconds after they first tries to turn the Kohl Center into Camp Randall.

There are 4 different links, yo.

I hate the youth excuse but it might be that there are too many effing Frosh and Sophs, 20 of 26 to be exact. That, and 2 pretty important players in Derek Lee and Jack McCabe have been out for several weeks now.

He's talking about the game where in between regulation and overtime they played jump around over the speakers which got the stadium fired up but the Badgers lost the game. And obviously it was because a song that is identified with the football team was played in the hockey arena.

Is the hockey team our Jan?

Or, are some hockey fans the Jans of UW fans?


Marsha's going to the Rose Bowl! :D

I believe it was the first time they'd played it at the Kohl Center, too. I was at that game, I remember Fulton absolutely rang the gong with a snap shot off the post during regulation. The game winner was a slapshot from the point that deflected off a skate and in. Bulldog fans then started to "jump around".
