Wisconsin Women's Hockey 2024-2025

I just threw up in my mouth.

I don't think anyone should panic with the scoring. I'm more of a stay the course person. Win the the face-off war, don't pass the puck to the opposing players and tie up/clear out players in front of our net and everything will be fine.
"tie up/clear out players in front of our net" is the most concerning piece. Faceoffs and passing are things we control and getting this done has varied/will vary throughout the year. People think they can beat Wisconsin by creating a logjam and hammering people in front of the net. Until we make them pay, they'll keep doing it. KK has obviously made addressing this one of her missions lately but the whole team must get onboard. It is a mental and physical toughness thing that we may or may not have. We better get it if we don't.
 
I didn't get a chance to watch with much attention the last 2 periods of game 2, but it was nice to see the sog tilt heavily towards the last 2 periods. Looks like the coaches made adjustments/got the message through. I did notice a couple breakaways allowed however.

The third period in particular was a bloodbath in terms of control of play. UMD was clearly running out of gas and desperately tried to hold on, but trying to do that against us is really playing with fire. Even before Laila finally broke the ice I said to my wife, "this is only a matter of time".

It was nervous though because we've all seen those "its a matter on time" games end where time wins. She actually showed some emotion when she scored.

McNaughton is having one heck of a year.

From what I could tell, the only line changes were flipping Kelly and Laila, correct? I hate that they just post the same line combos on line that they had for the game before even though they were not the same.

I think Scannell with O'B and Simms some, as well.
 
You better worry about the other rodents in the conference. The WCHA schedule has Bemidji playing in the NCAA finals. I guess they know something that we don't.
At this point it's not impossible to happen.

Senior day coming up. You tell us to show up early, get in your seats early but they don't open the doors early. That always annoys me.

Hopefully we get Lacey back next year.

Eden is listed on the 'press release' for Senior Day, which is unfortunate but understandable.

And so is Marianne Picard! She had a medical hardship year in her freshman year, in 2021-22, and so has eligibility for next year. We've seen players 'chance their minds' before, but for now she's apparently taking part in Senior Day.

I do believe there's precedence for people to be honored a seniors but come back correct? Chayla comes to mind, possibly OB?

Yes, both O'B and Kotlowski took part last year, then 'changed their minds'. Also Maddi Wheeler was included last year, so maybe Picard is thinking about a masters degree somewhere else, along with more playing time, etc?
