We need a sweep NOW! I know UAA beat NoDak and DU, and is quite able to beat UW. This will be a pretty good test; UAA has a lot of confidence coming in.

To me, last week was a big disappointment. This would be a good time to put up at least 5 each night and hold UAA to 2 or under each night. I'm not saying it will be easy, just opportunistic.

BAggott, you are such a tool, so a guy play 2 games in a row and he is the #1 goalie??? how long have you followed hockey again?? I can only imagine what goes on inside of eaves head when Andy Baggott is about to ask a question...


Good lord, no reason to get your panties all ruffled up. I thought it was a legitimate question. IMO, Eaves does consider Bennett his #1 guy, but just doesn't want to say it.

I had to put the pressure on the team this early, but they have to earn points in both games this weekend. I want to see a repeat of the UNH weekend in WCHA play, not because of the points (which are always nice) but this team HAS to start putting together back-to-back games where they bring their A game for all 60 minutes.

I've been watching for it and it hasn't come out yet. I'll post it if I see it come up on my RSS.

Hockey team: excellent job taking care of business and then some this weekend- double ice cream sweep!

Students: Please stop the "it's all your fault" in the midst of the sieve drum-roll. It's horrible, it's wrong, our sieve cheer is marvelous as is without your crap, just knock it off. Inform the goaltender it's all his fault after we've finished the standard sieve, that's fine. I'm all in favor of ripping on the goalie; it's all his fault, he is a sieve, vacuum, and blackhole, he just sucks, and he takes it the ear. Absolutely. Just don't **** with the classic post goal cheer; do your additional stuff after.

Anyone know what was with Geoffrion tonight? He had a mean streak going from the start and went after the UAA players after the whistle quite a bit. He played very well, but usually he's not the type of player to be involved with scuffles. Usually McDonaugh takes care of that. Good series. We need to take at least 2 points next weekend. It looks like SCSU is tough, tough as they beat UND tonight.
 
Re: WISCONSIN HOCKEY 09-10 - Climbing The Mountain (7th Edition?)

Bored sitting around watching football, I was curious just how badly UW has been outshooting the opponents this year...

UW: 39.4 shots per game, 3.8 goals per game
Opponents: 21.8 shots per game, 1.9 goals per game

DotA, anybody? ;)

Screw that...DotA and OotA! Take that!

I guess UND has the DotA instead of UW.

UND: 35.4 shots per game, 3.5 goals per game
Opponents: 20.9 shots per game, 1.7 goals per game

Robbie Earl scored his first 2 NHL goals this afternoon for the Wild against the Canes.

That is his role as one of the captains, keep the energy on the bench, inspire the other guys to play that way, Mcdonagh and Street are more the quiet type captains, geoffrion is going to get his feet dirty and keep things interesting and he is doing a great job at so far this season. I have really yet to see this team plat "soft" this season, they are always hitting and aggressive, and the have to be...

All together is was a great weekend, some much needed points at home, some confidence going to SCSU, Street had a great weekend so I look for him to continue to catch his stride after being out for so long. Looks like our D is set for the season baring any injuries and it is a heck of a D-core, and they get better every week

I think Gudmanson is the better goalie after this weekend. Sure, Bennett played ok on Friday, but Guddy makes better saves and hasn't really given up a softie yet this year. That said, neither of them is that much better than the other so we'll see a lot of platooning for the remainder of the year. If we get 2 points up at SCSU, I will consider the series a success.
 
Re: WISCONSIN HOCKEY 09-10 - Climbing The Mountain (7th Edition?)

Stepan has been a little MIA lately, though I didn't see the Friday game.

C Smith is going to be a scoring machine at this level. He's so good in tight spaces.

Fix the PP aleady. It's too complicated. Pass, pass shoot. How about shooting off the pass from the point? That will lessen the chances of the shot getting blocked. UW really hasn't converted on very many rebounds this year.
 
Re: WISCONSIN HOCKEY 09-10 - Climbing The Mountain (7th Edition?)

Anyone else feel better about scoring when our PK is out instead of our PP?:rolleyes:

Our PP is holding us back from being a great team.

Good thing is that our PK is pretty solid.

i'm not sure MIA is the right word, maybe from the score sheet but he has created more scoring chances then any other forward, he has undressed D-man on a weekly basis, he is just a little snake bit right now as far as putting it in the net and you can tell he is getting a little frustrated but with the amount of chances he is getting it won't be long before he erupts, and when the goals finally come, they will come in bunches, he is playing too well right now. I noticed it with BEn Street to start the year as well and now the numbers are starting to come for him as well. So MIA is not the correct way to put it, unless you are blind.

As far as the PP, i don't know if McBain was just that important to it with his ability to get pucks to the net or what but we seem to be more successful when we get those slower wrist shots low on net and bang in front for rebounds rather then trying to set up Smith with a one timer or davies on the back door. It just seems like they should get back tot he KISS method and use our size in front to our advantage. I would rather see Goloubef out on the 1st unit then schultz just because Goloubef seems to be better at getting the puck through traffic and on net. IMO
