Wisconsin Hockey 21-22: Your Guess Is As Good As Mine

Timothy A said:
Wow, worse than I read. It's good to know there is some depth there. And good for him to get to play against maybe the most talented line-up UW will play all season from line 1 to 4.

To be fair, I am going off what Perrin and Posick said about 6 breakaways.

I feel bad for Posick. He has to tow the company line and rah rah with the excuse O rama wheel.

They had his radio call as the BTN+ video broadcast, and he is so good at calling hockey. I also love the home games as Perrin is the color guy and he is great too.

They are an excellent duo. I really like Vogel's call as well when Brian is doing the Bally broadcasts.

Let's crack some rodent skulls tonight ladies!

So, this is something that I've been debating doing for a while, but I'm hanging it up here (for reasons I'll keep to myself.)

Over the past few months, I've almost stopped participating on the site and have stopped using most social media (which is why the recruiting spreadsheet updates have been much slower as it's more of a manual effort now to find out when players are signing and what not.)

I'll most likely continue working with the spreadsheet (with the slower updates,) because I enjoy the process, but it'll be up to the rest of you to post the links to it and such.

If someone wants to copy all of the info and start working on it for themselves, I would be totally fine with that also.

Thanks again to all of you for your help and support throughout the years.

It's been an interesting 18 years here and perhaps well talk again at some time.

Take care, Glen. You’re a good Badger, and always will be.
 
Maybe TG will be forced to make changes the way they forced Eaves to. MS could be on the chopping block since he is responsible for the F's and the PP one would assume, along with Volunteer Assistant Winchester. At least the D (along with the G's) is keeping them in the games, so perhaps OZ is safe. of course the PK sucks, so who knows.

Ped St. is up next. Usually they run you into the ground, er ice. They are 10-7 OAL, 2-6 in the B16. The 10 wins is a little smoke and mirrors, they have 6 wins against St. Thomas, Niagara and LIU. LOL.
 
On a sad note I talked to Mrs Phil at the game tonight. Both her and Phil have serious health issues and honestly they could both use your prayers.

Gosh, that just cuts right through a guy. Consider it done.

I nice win by the lads last night. PP and PK both worked, Moe was really good, responsible D play. Great to see the guys who you would expect to score and make plays do so. I don't think I have seen a UW F develop like I have seen Baker in years. He made some very deft plays that created chances. How about the dive by Autio? I re-wound and slow-mo'ed it. That was clear embellishment and Watts Ahcan did wasn't even a penalty. And the fact the refs missed the face mask major initially (according to the tv broadcast), was horrible. I still don't understand why Stange was in the box, apparently serving another concurrent penalty on Achan?? Was he serving the 2 on Achan while Achan was serving the 10 at the same time?
 
Most entertaining game this year imo. They played well and I can’t stand Ped state and their coach. We’ll see if they can do it two games in a row.
 
Outshot 42-12 after 2 periods? I just can’t stand this, it’s like 1997 era Sauer.

ped state just isn’t that good. Blah blah blah fire them all McIntosh. My dad is signing off our season tickets to me and I don’t see a reason to renew.
 
Well a heck of a comeback, only to be undone by a bad D zone play in OT. The 3 players out there have to know that you can't have 2 defenders going to the same guy.
Being honest the 3rd and 4th goals were seeing eye goals where there was traffic, but they were due for a few of those.

I listened to the first 2 periods on the radio and Vogel/Perrin sure did call out weak effort at times, and TG basically threw the whole team under the bus postgame. Players not giving 100% is an indictment of the coaches as much as it is the players. The coaches need to figure out how to extract performance, especially at this level. His comment about wanting to yank a goalie for giving up 3 or 4 goals just reinforces he has no clue how to manage goalies.

McIntosh gave TG the old vote of confidence in the paper today (and said he'd never force staff changes on a head coach), but he needs for data on hockey attendance to get to the bottom of Watts is going on there. The interviewer should have asked why he canned the soccer coach and how does that situation differ from the hockey situation.

Do you think Timothy that a coaching change is inevitable this season or right after?
You couldn't get coaches more dedicated to Wisconsin but something just isn't working. If they do start looking please stay away from Rhols!

I know you asked Tim, but here is my less than $0.02 opinion.

You're right, it just isn't working. However, I highly doubt he will be fired this off-season (even though it is time), and no chance it happens in season.

I'm for going outside of UW for a coach, a complete rebuild from the ground up, so that leaves no Rohlik. But if he is interested, I am guessing there would be interest from UW.
