  1. Watched the MU/MSU game tonight. Very sloppy game, lot of hitting, poor goaltending, not much skill on display. Wasn’t impressed with either team. Not NCHC caliber.

    Long time listener, first time caller here.  Did Western get hot goalied or is that still just us?  Didn't watch game at all. 

    I'll hang up and listen. 

    Starman stated it well. Western throws a lot of shots at the goal but few are grade A chances. Sioux shots are quality shots from close in between the dots, the kind that result in goals. Sioux also have more snipers than Western. Western seems to rely on greasy goals and rebounds - that’s their style of offense. Persson wasn’t tested to the degree the number of SOG’s might suggest.

  3. Western still above the cut line after this loss. A win tonight gets them in I think for certain. Even another loss tonight they’ll be better than 50% odds to get in. They stand at 74% probability now.

    Yah, we win in the end but during the game it baffled me as to how many good looks we had where we didn’t put the puck on goal.  At least hit the goalie and have a chance at getting a rebound.

    I agree. Seemed like a lot of shots were targeted just inside the post or trying for bar downs but were off the mark. This team has a lot of snipers but twisted wristers from close range don’t always need that kind of precision to beat a goalie.

    I like the quote by Blake in the herald article....I feel it shows some leadership, and shows that he expects more out of himself and his teammates.  No need to over celebrate winning a game in overtime, that should have been closed out halfway through the third...expect a big push, and a big night tonight...just what my gut says

    Exactly what I said about Blake. Winners have higher expections than last night’s performance.  Sometimes a win isn’t win.
