This will be an intriguing game.

They were saying between periods of the St Cloud game that the Beavers played a perfect game against Wisconsin and aren't likely to play that good a game again and that UMASS had another gear that it could go to. They basically gave the Beavers zero chance against UMASS.

Same appears to go for the BIG although the Goof troop is yet to play. Wisconsin had no answer for a team with a strong forecheck.

St Cloud beat what appeared to be a weak BU team today. Makes me wonder if the Hockey East schedule is soft.

Started Beaver thread as I know there are a lot of Beaver fans on here also. If Bemidji plays like they did yesterday they will have a good shot to win against UMASS today at 4 PM.

We have to stay out of the box period.

Last change will definitely be a factor as we can match lines with the Koepke line. Senden being out is an issue as he will not be able to be out against Koepke line.

Serratore still has the full court trap in his back pocket for UMASS. He is a great hockey coach.

Doesn't Schlossman also do a coin flip?

That's what I do also with my NCHC TV.

If we can stay out of the box and skate four lines we should wear them down. I am guessing AIC will shorten their bench early and that plays to our advantage with our depth.

According to the Denver Post, Gwozdecky was fired due to lack of success at the NCAA tournament and an inability to agree to terms on a contract extension.

That science is tough to follow

A lot of the AIC roster is NAHL players along with USHL and a few European players and a few transfers. This is a team that if we tend to business we should steamroll, but that is why we play the games on the ice instead of on paper.

I was at that game when UND and the Hrkac Circus threw everything but the kitchen sink at the net but that kid in net for US International was hotter than a pistol and turned almost everything we threw at the net back. I digress.

Upon further study U.S. International dropped their hockey program in 1990.

Just a quick conformation please. In December 86 we lost to US International. Is AIC the same school?

I lost respect for Omaha when they tried to make a Goldberg style entrance against us with a police escort. So lame even for them.

Being The Loveland region has both Mankato and Omaha in it I'm going to refer to Mankato as the Mavericks and Omaha as the Mavettes.

It's gonna be different this time around. Lol

This is a nightmare matchup for Bucky imo.

I'm not saying Wisconsin doesn't have talent but they aren't accustomed to playing a dump and chase style which the Beavers will force them to play to negate their speed. We have had the heck frustrated out of us by that trap and we are very well accustomed to it.

Just like Ferris did to St Cloud when they were #1 seed.

Bucky will be forced to dump and chase all game. Not good for Caufield who the Beavers will pound on all game.

Wisconsin will imo not be able to solve the Bemidji State neutral zone trap. We play them usually every year and we have trouble solving it and we know it well. Beavers frustrate Wisconsin and win this one imo.
