Funny, it doesn't hurt much
Funny, it doesn't hurt much
Honestly, this was a classic case of HGS... Hot Goalie Syndrome. Volkening didn't give up ANY rebounds even though we outshot them more than 2-1. I watched this game with a bunch of Air Force grads 'cause I work on a USAF base here in Ohio, and let me tell you, this was the biggest win for them in DECADES-- literally. A full bird colonel who played for the academy right when they turned D-I broke down and cried after the game. If we were going to lose to a #4 seed, I'd rather it be Air Force than any other team.
Lets face facts Michigan team, we went from a 7th place CCHA team risking our tournament streak to a #1 seed even though we lost our #1 forward unexpectedly (Max Patches), 2 of the leading scorers in the nation to graduation, and our #1 defenseman for almost the whole season, all the while playing an untested soph goalie who didn't soil the sheets in his first tournament start.
Bottom line for me-- I don't feel as bad about this game as I did after the NoDak debacle from two years ago, or the ND game from last year. We lost a tough game to a hot goaltender and the best team in our opposition school's history. I'll live and I look forward to next year.

I find it difficult to be mad
I find it difficult to be mad
I find it difficult to be mad at Air Force for two reasons:
1)These guys are going to be risking their necks for us before too long, so there's something nice about seeing those guys celebrate a big win.
2)The Air Force has lots of firepower, and I don't.

I came to terms with it throughout the game. Yet I still got drunk. Thank god we have alcohol, or else that ledge on my apartment balcony would have looked verrrrry appealing.

I wanted to kill myself more last year. I stayed up so freakin late to watch it, and they lose. I was so damn tired the next day. Our hockey team is always good, but no recent national titles. 11 years and counting... *heavy sigh*

you can probably call Air Force "Son of M-Hockey" with all the program links between the two...

Guess I'll be going to the game today as a temporary Vermont fan instead. Either that or charging UVM fans $100 for the two tickets and Chair Force fans $200.

I just have a headache. At least we beat a crippled state 5 or 6 times. That was pretty amusing.
But I'm more than willing to have an excuse to get drunk.
