link for UM MSU game?

They are in serious need of at least one possession player, though.

Gf's evil twin in Ann Arbor biatching not enough grinders.

Perfect scenario has DU and MSU in final with the Mavs winning.

Now for some soccer cheers!

I know DU has 8 and is a big rival, but good. Hate Mich in all sports.

Anyone who chooses either over the other because of "culture" needs to cross a border. Any border.

It is. A lot of talent out there.

You're knuckleheaded if you are either.

Would they be able to handle playing in front of fans?

It is remarkable--and good for the game.

Is this directly from gf's source, or are you channeling through gf?

Or, "Oh, they lost? I really only follow the Wild now."

I think we needed serious luck to win out even with Sanderson. This team has moxy, though.

I don't know The Lord Almighty very well, but I'm a little nervous that ND might have the advantage on matters of chance, like bounces, deflections, etc.

For all practical purposes, we are working with someone else's tool now. UND hockey's rep is that it provides top notch development for the player and that it takes professional level care of the product for the team that drafted him.

Same with Michigan hockey: 6 of their 9 titles between 1948 and 1956 and one in '64. 2 Banners in the last 57 years. Mich, though, probably deserves powerhouse rating based on overall tournament performance.

Sure, it all seems so obvious now.

How would you feel when their goalie skated the length of the ice and deked Driscoll for # 86?

WMU plays well and wins it 86 - 0. UND gets its first shot on goal late in the third when the game was pretty much out of reach at 75 - 0. Good thing Driscoll was hot.

A tinge of disappointment there?

You always want to win, but what’s at stake this weekend is minimal compared to the following weekends.

Tim's the best, but does he still have Ole as his color guy? I just have to get past some of his habits to appreciate him.

Over the course of their careers, you want to see if these kids can play dinged up. When it's a week before NCAAs though, it's a different calculus. I suppose winning two more games against the best NCHC teams could get them a 1 seed, which would help, but they are probably not going to slip to 3 with a loss against WMU. Not sure whether there is much difference between a 2 and 3 seed, matchup wise.

While he is here, though, Kleven has to be smarter. He seems like a great kid, but he doesn't help his team sitting in the box (or locker room) thinking, "That wouldn't be called at the next level."
