Re: Wisconsin Hockey Vol. XXXII: No Where To Go But Up!

And of course the game isn't actaully airing on GetTv.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Vol. XXXII: No Where To Go But Up!

GetTV just changed to the game. Guess they had to finish the episode of The Lone Ranger (or whatever was on).

Holy bleep. Do my eyes deceive me?

Thanks. GetTV on Charter joined the game about 10 minutes in.

You got GetTV on charter? I had to plug a long coax cable into a TV, and use it as an antenna. (Weirdly, it worked on one TV, but not on another...they both have digital tuners and I used the same "antenna" for both. Another TV wanted us to use an access code, which makes zero sense.)

Edit: I forgot to mention...Badgers win!
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Vol. XXXII: No Where To Go But Up!

GetTV, apparently standard definition is still a thing. Oh well, good win. I liked the lines this weekend.

Rockwood played scrapy this whole weekend. I liked it. Cavallini is starting to impress me.

I watched it on Charter (Madison) channel 194.

Wow. I'll keep that in mind for the future! Based on the channel listings we got from Charter last summer and what was on UWBadgers.com, I figured it wasn't available on Charter.

I may have to have a Culver's custard to celebrate our glorious victory.
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Vol. XXXII: No Where To Go But Up!

First conference win. My calendar must be wrong. It says Feb 14, not Nov. 14
 
Re: Wisconsin Hockey Vol. XXXII: No Where To Go But Up!

Faceoffs:

Friday 28 of 63 (44.44%)
Saturday 31 of 57 (54.39%)

Need to have the puck to win. Good to see them fight back after being down one goal twice and then holding the lead late.

Also, LaBate took 28 draws Friday and 2 (yes TWO) today. Rockwood went 1 for 7 on Friday and 7 for 11 today.

Cavallini appears to me to have completely rebuilt his skating. I always thought he played hard, but now he's got some power in his stride and is getting to where he wants to go a lot easier. I really questioned if he could play at this level before because of his skating, but now I think he can probably be a solid contributor in a role the Badgers really need him to play going forward.

Wagner and Zullinick took 4 each Friday and 12 and 13 last night too. Biggest thing to me was we won a lot of d-zone faceoffs. I always think faceoffs won are an indicator of if you are winning puck battles and the Badgers were so much better in that department last night it's hard to believe the same guys were on the ice from the night before.

The vets obviously all played much better. Other guys might get more kudos, but overall I though Linhart played one of his best games of the year in his own end. Greco is really a handful and he made some really nice plays against him, plus he moved the puck well. Drake also played more like he did early in the year. Steady Eddie has been playing well most nights but I think he's one of the few returnees that has actually improved his game throughout the year, let alone playing up to last year's standards. Pretty good work by the by the D corp in general, and that makes such a huge difference in how the Badgers go.

OSU got some momentum going in the third, but rather than fold up, it was good to see the Badgers string together some good shifts and take it back. I was a wreck watching the last four minutes, I can just imagine how the boys felt down the stretch. But they held it together and got rewarded. Happy for all these guys to get a road win. Absolutely no doubt it was the best Valentine's Day performance of the year!

Also: It has happened before.

And to all the Badger Fans like TJK and others I've ticked off this year -- We actually won a game!
