Home Sweet Home: Michigan Hockey open thread
Michigan's first home game at Yost since they potatoed Minnesota, 7-5 after they beat them in Basketball that same day. That was 42 days ago.
Doubleheader, but a new opponent. Who Michigan just beat in Basketball.
Right the wrongs from the last hockey game. Beat them. PLAY OUR GAME.
Go Blue
Puck drop: 5pm

but if it does, it's going to be gone if we lose tonight. Gotta gotta gotta win
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:04 PM ^
I think it's win the B1G Tournament or else regardless.
PSU is on the road is gonna be tough. They beat Minnesota last night.
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:10 PM ^
Michigan needs to gain 10 spots to get in position for an at-large bid. I don't know if they can do that even if they go 7-0-0.
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:26 PM ^
but generally I'd say 23-11-0 gets you in just barely, but with the B1G being as weak as it is I think agree that that won't be enough.
So we may just be playing for BTT seeding at this point (and a conference title I suppose. Would be nice to get to hang that first conference title banner)

Anyone got a stream?
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:27 PM ^
Try stream2watch, just type bigtennetwork stream2watch and it should be the first one, works great for me.
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:09 PM ^
guide has it listed as Field Hockey
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:09 PM ^
for those who are not home
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:11 PM ^
I think Michigan wins the B1G tourney and gets in no matter what!
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:23 PM ^
I like the optimism
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:03 PM ^
Last time I came in we swept Minny!

Idk how reliable the above is, but if you customize it that we win out, we will finish 9th in PWR if everyone else were to hold serve. So maybe a small chance we get in if we go 6-1.
Edit- calculated it with 6-1, loss to either PSU or MSU and we finish 15, needing to win the conference tourney anyways. So unless we win out and make it at least to the conf tourney final, only way to get in is win the BTHCT

4x4 upcoming
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:31 PM ^
Crap call! Should have been 5 for cross to the face intent to injure.

I always get so nervous when we let 3 guys get down low on a 4x4. I've seen us give up quick 2-on-1's way too many times
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:32 PM ^
a goal!
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:32 PM ^
Nasty HYMN

1-0 Good Guys!
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:32 PM ^
Wow what a feed by Larkin
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:32 PM ^
That was purty
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:35 PM ^
Couldnt clear the zone, finally gained posession, then two of our guys go for the puck and neither actually takes it, OSU gets it, and we have to take a penalty. Sigh
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:36 PM ^
Shoulda been 1-1. Nice save Racine
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:41 PM ^
Stop saying "Cumpher"
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:47 PM ^
She wanted me to cumpher, but I am shy and had a bit too much to drink. Thanks. I'm here all week.

athletic director gives his hockey team a schedule with 42 consecutive days without a home game? In the middle of god damn winter in Michigan
February 22nd, 2015 at 5:55 PM ^
The same one who sends the team to Chicago for an outdoor game with no ties to the university. The same one who gives up a home game to a rival to play in Detroit. The same one who has inspired HailAndUnite.
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:09 PM ^
What I'm wondering is why our schedules are about 5 games shorter since the move to the Big Ten. We used to play 40 games a season, we only play 35 now and I don't know why. Use those extra 5 games to play some in-state teams. Everyone would love it
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:01 PM ^
but Mr Harbaugh is in the building.
We would like to officially welcome @CoachJim4UM to his first, of hopefully many games @YostIceArena #GoBlue pic.twitter.com/DvineRKLXo

Downing is playing like crap today.

God that was pretty
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:04 PM ^
Yesssss! 2-0 Good guys!!!!!
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:04 PM ^
Goal!!!

Larkin having another great game
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:05 PM ^
Larkin you dirty Rat! GRIND ON! Want 7 again.

Thank god. I don't think I could have handled the low of a hockey loss after the high of the basketball upset
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:05 PM ^
looked like OSU clearly won that one that they still blew the whistle
February 22nd, 2015 at 10:15 PM ^
They changed the icing rule recently. The offensive player needs to make it to the center of the faceoff circle before the defender or it's icing. I didn't see any blown icing calls tonight.
February 22nd, 2015 at 10:16 PM ^
Clicked send twice
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:07 PM ^
we might actually get 3 or more years out of this brilliant talent
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:09 PM ^
Yep. I'd love if every one of ours guys drafted were taken by the Wings because they give them plenty of time.
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:09 PM ^
Larkin almost scored the exact same goal
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:09 PM ^
Slightly OT but how big is the student section? I only gradated a few years ago and it was the whole of the State St. end when I was a student. It looks like it's lost 75% in four years and now runs from the band only to the benches?
Also for east coast folks, I stumbled across this on Fox Sports Atlantic.
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:11 PM ^
3-0
Basically a PPG. The OSU player was just getting back into the play
February 22nd, 2015 at 6:11 PM ^
Keep 'em coming
