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.

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)

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

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

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.
