Guys please, just stop crackin' wise about Mark Johnson. The guy is a REAL American HERO.

I probably shouldn't post this... Just do me a favor and keep it between us, OK? -- So, I have a friend who is a Navy Seal, he got me this pic. At first I didn't believe it, but I showed to another guy I know in the State Department and he outright denied the whole thing, so obviously that tells you something...

Is there a series thread for this weekend's games that I missed? I thought about starting one, but usually those Tech fans have it up there Saturday night....right after they lose to whoever.
 
Re: WISCONSIN Hockey Vol. 22 - Let's not have another cheesy thread title... Wait, W

The buyer I had for Friday's tix just backed out.

Got two seats and a primo parking pass for $40. ($60, retail)

Section 204, row A. Parking pass right out front of KC.

MTU had a game tuesday so that might be part of it...didnt see one the last time I looked
 
Re: WISCONSIN Hockey Vol. 22 - Let's not have another cheesy thread title... Wait, W

My weekends prediction:
Friday- UW 3 MTU 2
Saturday- UW 6 MTU 2

I know I predict Wisconsin sweeps all the time, but I only predict the games I fell sort of confident in.

So hopefully UW sweeps this weekend going into Huntsville next week.

Can you promise that people in your section won't think we're friends of yours if we buy?

I know some of you don't get over to the blog very often, but during our podcast this week I did a 15 minute interview with Nic Kerdiles that I think is pretty good. He talks about the situation at the draft involving the hotel rooms and how that all played out. He also talks about putting on that Wisconsin sweater for the first time. Check it out if you're interested.

Kerdiles interview starts around the 18:30 mark.

Re: WISCONSIN Hockey Vol. 22 - Let's not have another cheesy thread title... Wait, W

Watching his presser reminded me of why I really couldn't stand him by the end of his run.

The line that went something like this was so much awesome though:

"I won't be utilizing a search committee (to find the new coach), search committees utilize ME."


Win or lose, I'm gonna enjoy this little trip down memory lane. What makes it tolerable is that it's 4 weeks and one game and then we should have someone new. And that new someone should be pretty high quality and most importantly, not Bret Bielema.


Back check.

Tech is almost dead last in scoring D, UW is almost dead last in scoring O, Tech can score goals, UW can stop goals. Kato lit UW up @ home, we shut DU down on the road. I see some scintillating 2-2 games, though Kerdiles could push UW over the top to a couple tight wins.

Baggott brought up the attendance issues to BA, Ba says he's not concerned, and if he was, he wouldn't let on. As someone stated in the Fire Eaves Thread, it will come down to what Fraizer thinks in the end first. He'll advise BA what to do and BA will act accordingly. Just win Baby!

Not to turn this into a BB thread, but after the 1st 3 years I wanted BB gone. His record was clearly trending down. The next 2 years were great, this season had the chance to be great, but the overall turnover in the program was too much to over-come for a double digit win year. So what I'm saying is I'm on the fence as far as am I happy he's gone. He's nuts to go into the SEC and think he's gonna beat LSU and Bama. He's gonna have at least 3 losses every year and never sniff the SEC title game. I like the way BA's handled this so far.
 
Re: WISCONSIN Hockey Vol. 22 - Let's not have another cheesy thread title... Wait, W

You can't blame a guy from taking the steps necessary to achieve his career goals, but the way BB did this and the things he said in his first presser seemed awfully self serving. In his coaching he has done things that seemed designed to accomplish his goals at the expense of some unwritten codes, such as running up scores (last year mostly) and using the rules in kickoff situation in a way that was within the written rules but outside what some would call ethical standards (I didn't have a problem with it). I wonder if those of you who know him and his coaching better see any similarity between the way he coaches and the way he handled this hire.

Oh, and it's a great day for hockey.

Yes, he's a world class doosh-clown.

There are tons of stories about his arse-hattery around town.

The fact that no one is crying that he's gone should tell you all you need to know.



On another note, it is a great day for hockey. Beat the Yoopernerds!

Not a great game tonight. The lack of skill is on full display, although the defense is doing their job reasonably well, not a lot of bad opportunities being given.

man I was just going to post a similar note. this UW team just has no-one that can score. not to belabor the point from last year but it's because they don't have the horses up front. scary thing is there's no turnaround in the near future. having 3 lines that can really skate and create opportunities is going to take some years of recruiting and the entirety of the junior and sophmore class will need to be replaced with kids with far superior talent
 
Re: WISCONSIN Hockey Vol. 22 - Let's not have another cheesy thread title... Wait, W

Wisconsin lost zero players up front (except Clark but he was useless last year). Barnes, Labate, Woods have been for the lack of a better word invisible this season. I just can't explain it.
 
Re: WISCONSIN Hockey Vol. 22 - Let's not have another cheesy thread title... Wait, W

a classic case of UW's problem just occurred. Jefferson Dahl skates into the zone with 1 trailer 2 steps back and to his left and another UW player breaking in further left, instead of being patient and smart and looking for a play he just takes a blast from 45 feet out and misses the net...good effing grief
