Hammer is getting more comfortable with this game of hockey. Prefer some of the goofball stuff, though.

This actually a good Beaver hockey team. They will win some games this year.

Losing a lot of battles on the wall

Yikes. And the Beavers beat Duluth.

BU outshooting UW by something like 32-6.

I wouldn't put the first goal on H. Point blank range. A Sioux player was gliding on the back check and could have challenged that shot if he'd been skating. Second goal, yeah--unless it was tipped.

Pumped for tonight. First time I've had a chance to see the boys this year. Might get to see Wilbur play to boot.

Wilbur is waiting to be begged. What a jerk.

Just having fun.

With so many new forwards who need to learn defensive responsibility, maybe questionable goaltending early on will shorten that important learning curve. These guys are learning early on that it is their responsibility to back-check and cover in the defensive zone.

Dang, Fetch, someone steal your controversy or did you just wake up confused?

What exactly to you mean by "UND is corrupt."

Amen

I think "character issue" does not need to imply criminal type misbehavior. If they had a very talented prospect who they thought could not be coached away from seeing himself as primarily a goal scorer who would not completely buy into his responsibilities at the other end of the ice, they would probably pass on him.

Not to go all gopher fan here, but as nice as it would have been to get a Dman of his caliber, missing on Fabbro doesn't seem that bad to me. Although we are about to lose a lot on the blueline, we've got a lot of talent on campus and coming in, and what we need is goaltending to come through, the right kind of chemistry, and maybe a little bit of Lady Luck. We have the talent.

Blais woulda had them ready to play

USCHO has MS beating LSSU 4-1

The Sioux have definitely laid some eggs at the finish, but for years they have been exceptionally good down the stretch. They've built their reputation on that, whether it was accurate or not.

living near Madison for the past 23 years, I've usually tried to catch the Sioux games in town. Those were almost always packed, high energy games, and Badger fans loved the Sioux rivalry. A great college hockey venue that now sucks. Hard to believe.

Those are big deals for a young team: kill a major and a 5 on 3, then follow with a shorty

Good time for a major test for Johnson and the whole crew

I was on a college campus road trip with a daughter of mine in early April of 2007 and spent the night at a small motel at Amherst College. She and a friend went out to a movie and I stayed back to watch the best line in college hockey make BC eat some humble pie. Should have gone to the movie. .

Are Andy and Paul practicing law in the area?

Berry will not have won a natty all year long

He was kind of fun along side Hammer, but my god--a cliche' machine.
