Hennessey and his color guy were saying that UW didn't have an answer for the 4th line all night.

Boy has it been. Hukalo. Earl.

Didn't play a full 60 minutes.

Someone please tell Tim's color guy to STOP interrupting with "yup" "yup" "yup" when Tim is taking. I love listening to Sioux hockey with Hennessey, but it makes me want to turn it off.

Dam, you're a softy, farce.

Sounds like a hammy or something like that.

I live close to Madison and checked for tickets this afternoon. Very few available in lower bowl. Corporate no shows like Mooch?

It's a damn tough venue for a first start.

thome made any saves yet?

Happened at the morning skate.

I picked him as my grinder/dark horse man, so I'm disappointed in the decision, whose ever it was.

It sure is nice, though, to see excitement in C Springs. Been missing for too many years for such a good program. Just like it's been good to see excitement in Houghton, though their drought has been much longer.

It's too easy to just overlook the improvement CC has shown the last year plus. This is not the same program it was 3 years ago. Although they lost a bunch of games last year, they showed they could play with the best, beating us once, UMD twice (along with a tie and one-goal loss), beat SCSU once, and lost 3-1 two times against DU. This year they have also shown they can play. They're not Denver or SCSU, but they're not MTU of ten years ago either.

We all knew this team would win by committee, and that is what we have seen, win or lose--mostly win. Hopefully, there's a Caggula or Frattin among them. They played well in the third, so that says something. No guarantee they will turn the corner into a contender, but I'm gonna withhold judgment until I see more hockey. They can play defense, and that could be a big deal, come March. Right now, my goal for them would be to win enough games to make the tourney and develop a team that can beat Denver in March. But I don't know half as much about hockey as most of the posters here (and that's no secret), so I'll just hold on and enjoy the ride.

they have been playing better the last 5 min

You were shooting on your own net too much.

Berry's a smart guy. He's probably trying to get CC feeling overconfident.

found the zoom on the camera and now it's way too close

Now we see how this team can adjust. Bcb and Yzer are right that they will probably be gassed late in the game. btw. are most USHL rinks NHL size?

this the camera angle coaches would use, showing where everybody is on the ice.

We'll definitely know more about this team after the next two weekends.

I think every fan base tends to overestimate how seriously other fan bases take them. But it's kind of like paranoia: Just because we might overestimate how important we are, doesn't mean we aren't dam important.

Nope.

Fair point.

I'd take him in a heartbeat.
