Re: WCHA First Round - UNO at SCSU
See you guys on Thursday.
See you guys on Thursday.
Surprising run to those people who werent smoking what i was smoking.
I'll be in St. Paul on Thursday with the band (keeping my fingers crossed that we get asked to go play). Looking forwards to playing for the fans at the Eagle Street Grille and playing at the game.![]()
Hopefully we can get back to the title game. The way this team has been playing, it isn't as long a shot as people might think. What a surprising run by this team.
Anybody know if UW/DU game is on TV tomorrow?
No. At least, not at this point in time. I believe you can watch online though through DU's Pioneer Vision (PPV). It would be nice if Root would pick it up though.
I'll take Hanowski over all the following: Jaden Schwartz, Mark Zengerle, Nick Bjugstad and Oleksuk... that's right, the guy the homer Ciske had on his 1st team. With Schwartz, that was the second highest scoring team in the WCHA, and that helps him rack up assists, and his 5 more points is impressive, but six more goals than Jaden isn't minor... its half of Jaden's. Hanowski scored 150% of the goals Jaden did, even highe percentage than Zengerle's 11. B-Jugs had less goals AND points than Hanowski on a higher scoring team, and Oleksuk benefitted from playing on that team a lot and you shouldn't be a first team forward if you are 3rd on your team in goals and points.
I'd have gone 1st Team Nelson, Zucker, J. Conn, 2nd Team D. Shore, Hanowski, and Brown and 3rd team Rylan Schwartz, B-Jugs and Oleksuk.
Well we're 2-4-2 against UNO in the last two years but we won the two that matter!
UNO fans, you guys had a nice start to your WCHA tenure but starting with last year's playoffs been kinda downhill. Do yourselves a favor, buy Final Five tickets for next year regardless of how the team's doing, this isn't a tournament that you wanna listen to us talk about forever and you never got to experience.
Make sure you go at least once, cause its looking like your team may not ever go.
Seriously? SERIOUSLY?
You're certainly entitled to your opinion but given the almost all underclassmen talent level on this team, the recruiting class we have coming in (that is not yet complete, though), and the credentials of our coaching staff, I have hard time believing we aren't going to acquit ourselves a tad better next season with another year's experience that all our Freshmen and Sophomores have gotten this season. I think UNO is probably an NCAA tournament team again next season. I'll gladly eat crow if I am wrong but I love the future of this team both next season and the season after. We got victimized by a lot of bad luck this season as well as injuries besides Coach Blais kicking the arguably best-player-senior-captain off our team mid-season. UNO started the season 1-3 without Hudson who was suspended at the start of the season, too, and then went 8-5-3 after he returned. After he was booted for good? 6-13-6. His loss gut-punched a few-and-far-between leaders team. I think this season was sort of an anomaly for us and I'll be pretty surprised if we do anything next season that approximates this one.
That said. Season. Over.
Congrats to SCSU.
