Yeah, it was devastating. Shut out by minnesota of all teams? Row the frickin' boat..... ugh.
It'll be a long time until we have a team this talented again. Unless Fersch can pull off some recruiting or transfer portal magic.
Dude, don't even get me started. They changed the logo to a circle W, and get an opportunity to literally place the logo INTO A CIRCLE at center ice, and they use the letterhead edition.
What the hell were they thinking lol.
Tough way to lose, tough to beat that team in a 3 on 3 OT. At least with the pairwise changes it's not a full loss. I wish we played them again early on, I fear by late december when we get them at Yost for the "gli" that team will be really really good.
Thanks,
There is nothing better in this whole damn world than beating Michigan in anything. But beating "the greatest hockey team ever assembled" Michigan is even better.
This is the type of game where we'll miss Andy for sure. I do expect our team to open things up a little more than in previous seasons. I think you'll see more goals, and more creativity offensively. Hopefully that also means more wins. I'm tired of all of the other NCHC teams having fun in the tournament while we stay at home at #16 or 17 in the pairwise.
I expect we'll get at least one win against them, but have a strong feeling we may sweep. They have a ton of talent, and might be looking ahead of "little" Western Michigan.
That Saturday Lawson crowd is going to be nuts.
Andy gives up some of his life essence every year to keep his players from getting older. So far it has had no noticeable effect on his own aging........
