Wow...so you're the guy who jinxed us last year.

Sounds like Anas (Mr. Dirty Paws/Filthy Mitts - for all you Bucci haters ) is out for Friday's tilt.

I could see that lineup. Not sure about st Clair but he's a true 3rd 4th liner that buzzes so it would make sense. Not to mention he's a junior and is decent on the pk. 27 that far down huh? It would balance things out I guess. I don't have a better combo that I could think of. I actually thought murph looked decent though. However I would probably play st Clair over him given what I previously mentioned.

Sounds like Hargrove from wmu is leaving too.

I agree with you however I do believe this team has the skill. The system they play is a little chippy to me and they lose focus. This past weekend sure showed that. I felt that they gave a terrible effort against SCSu....besides the last 4-6 minutes. Against Denver....everything was wrong. We didn't have chance right from the drop of the puck. And to think, they were sitting guys. Pretty scary. They looked twice as good as we were. The Mac loss hurts is big time. Miami is about to have the same feeling.

I could tell we were gonna get rolled from the very first couple shifts. Zane had to make some huge saves in the first. Everything was point blank. Offensive forecheck was a joke, defensive transition was as bad as it's been all year. No idea what was up with the boys all weekend. They'll draw someone tough early next week.

Yeah...me too. murph looked good.

Ok good, I was confused.

Um ......were you watching the game. He played very well for the first two periods (I left half way through the third however). Out of all the guys to bash you're picking him?

I'm glad someone finally brings up a player other than schmaltz. Take our top 6 forwards and check out their stats the past 5, 10, and 15 games. I love the gaarder line but they're a great 3rd line not a line we should be relying on to win the game. This team has to win today, hope for a Mankato loss, pound an Atlantic team next week, and get lucky the rest of the way.

Bingo! We have a winner.

True....but my fingers are still crossed. In a one and done format anything can happen.

That goes for every team. Just have to cross your fingers and hope for some luck.

Cc tried to trap....Wisconsin too I believe. It wasn't the trapping. Boys just didn't show up. That can happen from time to time. The huskys didn't even play good.

I question what game you watched. The guys played very bad today. It it what it is. But let's be honest.

So no one can post anything negative? Especially when the squad played terrible? A loss is a loss but that may have been the worst of the year. SCSu didn't even play well. Hopefully we get the W tomorrow. It's sweet we got 6 in though.

It's a different game today than it was 20 some years ago. Eichel's numbers as a young freshman are incredible....he deserves all the press he's getting.

I didn't realize the $80 got you both games.

Oh really....didn't know that.

Toews is better than everyone you just mentioned.

$80.75 for lowers...with the fees.

Agreed...on a very very good and absolutely loaded Canadian team. If you ask me....Eichel and Matthews are very comparable to Toews evaluating them at the same age. A lot can happen for Eichel and Matthews in these next few years obviously. On a side note, Toews was and is a beast but boy did he show up in Chicago at the right time. I'm trying not to take too much away from Toews but those teams have been loaded for a while (in full transparency Toews is my favorite NHL player and the CHI is my favorite team).

4-3 Sioux

But again....the initial poster was talking about as an NHL prospect. I don't think anyone, including the Hawks, thought Toews would turn out to be the type of player he has become, or achieved the results he has to date. Otherwise he would have went #1 in a second.

So why are the tickets so expensive this year? $80.75 for one ticket? The fees are a lot higher than I remember. This is like a Wild game.
