Hey, we finally got that second shot in the third!

UNH had a 2-on-1 when Downing got too deep but Clare broke it up beautifully. Gorgeous

They are so overrated every single year but no one learns
October 18th, 2013 at 9:49 PM ^
Then penalty shots or tie?

Then penalty shots or tie?
Yeah!

In our zone. UNH will probably try to get a quick play setup before buzzer

Seeing on twitter that Nagelvoort was grabbing his shoulder after that last stoppage. Sweeeeeeeet.

Somehow Al Borges is responsible.

Nagelvoort covers the puck and the refs don't blow the whistle. The UNH players slap at Zach and scrum ensues. That's how players get hurt. Terrible.

Good job by Nagelvoort in relief. Get well soon, Racine. Hope the refs already reached their quota for the weekend.

Some of my thoughts
- Nagelvoort ruled. I was afraid to say it in game but he was rock solid. If Racine struggles, Nagelvoort is going to be right behind him
- We look young and talented. Capable of great plays but tons of penalties and defensive breakdowns
- Refs were pretty awful

The combination of terrible officiating and Nagelvoort going in for Racine made this tie feel like a win.
Nagelvoort looked really good in limited action. Great save on the penalty shot.

I know it's early in the year, but the passes need to be crisper, and the puck movement will hopefully smooth out, too. Too many shots not on goal was another issue. All that said, Michigan controlled the first part of the first period, and looked great, but after the UNH major, constantly being on the penalty kill took its toll. There were flashes, but no real sustained pressure or momentum after that.
