Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

Who was this "Ben Dixon" guy that the Badgers suited today for the DU game? :confused:

I agree that the announcers were good but everytime I heard the FSN guy mispronounce Bendy's name it made me smirk..........

FYP, but they're by contrast SO much better than the alternative.

Funny though that Cerniglia pronounces it that way also and he's actually part of the staff. :confused:

Mike Cerniglia on the Badger radio broadcasts says " Ben Dickson" as well, but Posick says Ben'-dick-son. :confused:

I agree about the announcers. LaPanta and Darby Hendrickson are pretty good. I think it was Mike Rich who did the Badgers Vs Denver pbp? He's pretty good as well. Not bad for gofer dudes.

Now THAT's how you want to go into the NCAA's. Nice win, but an even better effort. Hopefully they can sustain this for four more.

How nice was it to have announcers actually do these games in a professional manner? Hendrickson & LaP-whatever and Gorg(dude looks like a Gorg) did a nice job both today and yesterday. I know they're homers, but they don't make it so painfully obvious. Hopefully Dumb and Dumber will retire soon.

100% agreed.

knocking off #1 in the country to enter NCAA's is a great thing
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

Cheverie's stats vs Bucky this year:

W-L-T
0-2-1

GAA
4.47

SV%
.880

It's nice to see Wisconsin pick up some steam going into the tournament.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

was at both games this weekend. Yesterday's game was a decent game. We had in my mind 6 real good scoring chances. None went in. The effort was good, not great. Today's game was real good, flying all over the ice and scored on some shots that yesterday didn't get in. I think Goody is playing good enough to get us there right now, but we just seem to go through lapses as a team. Even in today's game from 17 min to go in the 3rd down to 7 min to go in the 3rd we got soft. Hopefully we can put it together for 4 more games.

Only good thing about beating Denver today was the fact we should get a #1 seed in the tourney. Other than that Denver had nothing to play for seeing they were an automatic lock for a #1 seed.
Otherwise the badgers played better today than yesterday.. score withstanding. I still have an uneasy feeling going into the tourney. Glad to see they scored on the PP. Also I thought I saw alot of penalties that could have been called for both teams. nice to see the refs let them played for the most part.

Now comes the fun if the badgers play like the way we all know they can play nobody will stop us. I'd just like to know which team is going to come out and play.

Great game glad we won. Now bring on the Frozen Four oh sorry I mean Two.

I know this is a broken record, but after watching another game with Turnbull, it frustrates the heck out of me why this guy sits over Johnson. The guy was fantastic today. The guy created his own offense, made bit hits, and put his heart out there on every shift. And the guy is considerably stronger too. Why he sits is a mystery.

Plus he's got an unbelievably sweet mullet-goatee combo rockin' right now. Podge looked very good today and I sure hope that he's made the playoff lineup as a result but I'm not holding my breath.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

Things I would like Andy Baggot to do:
1. Really pester Eaves on the Turnbull/Johnson issue.
2. Document, with photographs, every magnificent mustache on the team.

In either order really...
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

Its nice to see Bucky bounce back and beat Denver. Hopefully this will be the start of a winning streak that last all the way to the end of the season and a 7th national championship.

At the very least it makes me happy to know Podge still has his heart in the game. It would be easy for him to just shut down, but he has made the most of his limited opportunities this year. Here's to hoping Eaves and co see this going into the NCAAs. To me PJ just doesn't have the size or heart to be out there. I was hoping to see him develop into a Nick Licari type player, who more than makes up for his size with intensity and fire. So far he's been a disappointment and I can't believe he's getting the playing time over Podge.

Agreed! Anyone also know the best place to find tickets? I've been finding ones for around $100 for the whole session but I am not sure if I want to risk scalping or just be safe and buy some before the games.

Come on #7
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

Wisconsin has a nice bracket . At least they're not going to see Michigan unless they each make the title game. I was worried about them facing them a 3rd time.

If they beat Vermont I'm hoping they get a rematch vs. St. Cloud.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

Does anyone else think the ticket prices are pretty high? I don't remember them being this high before.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

If anyone hears of any kind of a package deal with something like bus, hotel and tickets, I'd appreciate it if they post it here. Packages used to be common, but they've all but disappeared. Thanks.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Part 3: Just win, baby!

It's simply stunning how long it took to figure out that Podge Turnbull needed to replace Patrick Johnson in the lineup. Better late than never I guess.
