Wisconsin Hockey 20-21 Give Us A Reason To Believe

Great team effort today despite being down 2 dmen. I hope Vorlicky and Inamoto are back next weekend.

I’m also so happy to hear Bill Brophy’s voice again on the tv. He’s right up there with PB and Howie!!!
 
Has anybody ever seen a 5-minute major for Interference, like they called on Inamoto last night? I wouldn't have thought that a legit call.
 
Years ago at the Coliseum, the Band brought a big cardboard "Ref-O-Matic" to a Friday night game. Every penalty they would spin the dial to see what penalty would be called. It was hilarious. It was also absent the next night.

I guess the Ref-O-Matic came up "Interference".

I think the Ref-O-Matic would do a better job. Much better job.

Great to eek out a win Friday. The first period Friday they were just dominating but the puck luck just didn't go their way, could have been 4-0 easy. Bid dog Dylan saved the day and Robbie kept the score were it needed to be. I was bummed UW had an off second period after suck a great first period. All gas and no brakes boys. I was disappointed that OSU was chippy like they were, really trying to PO the UW players.

Great to see a solid solid win today. Big boys played like they should. Peltonen could have had a hatty, he is just as snakebite as Baker is.

Overall above average transitional D, though today they did allow a breakaway but Rowe stoned the shooter.

Rowe has had a heck of a season. His USHL numbers weren't sparkling at all, he's really played above that grade. Maybe he had faulty D in front of him in the USHL. We all know Watts kind of an effect that can have on a goalie.
 
Me sitting down at 7 PM to watch Badger Hockey. Hmmmm, no TV so I'll try the radio. What the frick, Handle on the Law? I'll check my phone to look for a later start....."Badgers Sweep With 7-0 Win". ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? 4 PM START? Fuck Covid19 and fuck the BTHC. Where is the middle finger emoji?
 
It has been tough with the weird game starts, but it definitely helps to check the sched before each weekend. Without crowds it seems they dont care about sat game starts.

OSU played very physical and was glad to see the Badgers fight through it to reverse the ice and create quality scoring chances. Glad to see Badgers didnt get sucked into any silly major penalties that would DQ anyone from next week's games too.

D transition was good but not great, Rpwe and Beydoun had to make some big saves. They need to bring their A game against MSU. DeRidder is a phenomenal G. But we put pressure on MN to sweep Michigan. Expect Mich to fight since they potentially have a NCAA berth on the line.

Get over it. If you're a fan of the team you should know the schedule.
 
I mean, no reason to be THAT harsh lol. We all mix up game starts from time to time. Early Saturday starts have been bizarre as there really is no need for them. Might be easier on the facility staff so they are probably operating on reduced crew, who knows. It is a bizarre wrinkle.

I mean yeah the start times HAVE been screwy all year, so one has to keep an eye on things. They've also done Thursday and Sundays. I guess being a heavy Women's team follower for years I am used to seeing weird start times. Shrugs shoulders.
 
The games may end up on cable tv afterall, we shall see. I don't know if the times will change, but the BTN should be doing all it can to get the um UM matchup and the UW MSU matchup on their channel, the top spot is up for grabs and some say UM is on the bubble. The Friday 7pm slot is open, the 4-7 slot has 2 classic bb games and a bb studio show EASILY bumpable. 3-7:30 is TBA on Saturday. 7:30 is the B16 wrestling semi's, I don't see that getting bumped. FSWI has garbage on Friday, then more with the Wild @ 7:30. Saturday is Baseball till 4:30 ish then more NHL.

Revised schedule against MSU - Friday 3 pm (BTN+ only) and Saturday 1:30 PM BTN. horrible revised times. this is the best BTN can do? bunch of clowns....

I can live with Saturday @ 1:30....Friday @ 3pm is really stupid. At least a guy can watch it when he gets home from work, just have to stay off the tweeder.
 
The only thing I can think of on Friday is that the teams said a 3pm (CST) start gives them enough rest heading into a 1:30pm (cST) nationally televised start on Friday and assuming BTN will televise the Mich/MN game after the 3pm Badgers game bc of the implications. if they did a late start on Fri, no way they would play in a 3pm game on Sat. just no fun that the fri start precludes a lot of people from tuning in. BTN saying "only sat matters, you peasants."
