    Predictions (WCHA)

    in Men's Hockey

    Posted

    I see a real possibility of CC getting upset this weekend. From there, the probabilities for an upset drop considerably. Best chance for another upset now might be WI going down via MTU. Denver - Duluth matchup I just don't see much chance for Duluth. Their second half has been absolutely ugly (I'm shooting for a kiss of death here). And UM- UAA is probably the absolute lowest chance for an upset.

    Things could fall right for the Sioux and they go into the Final Five as a #3 seed. If so, look out! Could be a real fun ride.

    I'm starting to find those phrases bothersome, even if they are quotes of GrahamKracker.

    We have seen what GrahamKracker has proven himself to be. There's no need to keep rolling the evidence out.

    There's no need to sully yourself with those words even if they are quoting another.

    Leave the despicable characterizations for GrahamKracker to keep using (as he was the first).

    I agree wholeheartedly. We know what GK is about. Let's make sure that we don't sink to that level.

    Kozek's wrist shot is great. And what makes it better is that he is very good at using a defenseman to screen that shot. He did it last night and as well as a couple of weeks ago. With his play I believe he has earned the chance to fill Fabian's role on that third line, assuming that Fabian's injury is as serious as it seems.

    That begs the question, obviously, as to who slides into the fourth line. Marvin might be the only reasonable option, given it is this late in the year. Assuming the Sioux are in the WCHA play-in game, the fourth line is going to be critical in the Final Five to spell the other lines.

    To me, the greater issue that I have been observing is Lee's propensity to dish the puck to the opposing team in his own end. That needs to get fixed now or the Sioux season won't be going far. He got away with it against UMD and MTU, but we won't be seeing those teams from here on out.

    Obscure highlight of the week: Watching Joe Finley catch Connor from behind going into the Sioux zone. Several defensemen this weekend caught up with MTU forwards from behind, but seeing Finley show that kind of speed was stunning. Absolutely pure hustle.

    Godspeed Eric Fabian and hope for a quick recovery.
