AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARGH! I'm glad my kids are asleep. this is a horror movie
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:46 PM ^
Played game. I can't take another early exit. Gotta bounce back in the 3rd.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:46 PM ^
Just shoot the dam puck, why do we feel the need to make three passes before every shot? It doesn't have to look pretty to count, just get it done.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:46 PM ^
Faith meter is pretty much at zero, nothing to be happy about
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:47 PM ^
Hunwick and Pateryn need to get in everybody's faces and tell them "YOU ARE NOT ENDING MY FUCKING CAREER LIKE THIS!!!!"
PP was our bugaboo early in the season. Have we already come full circle?
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:47 PM ^
What a terrible 5 on 3... looked like a squirt team out there.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:47 PM ^
Wow, what a frustrating period. Hopefully the trainers can help extract Merrill's head from his ass.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:47 PM ^
way too much passing
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:47 PM ^
On two 5 on 3s...and a shorty given up. This is maddening.
ANGAR!
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:47 PM ^
Score please?
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:49 PM ^
2-1 end of the second. We're playing bad
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:52 PM ^
in case you couldn't tell by the frustration
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:48 PM ^
Pass it.. Let's do something on this powerplay
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:48 PM ^
Wow...just when I thought the Red Wings had the worse PP on planet Earth. Sorry, but these guys are not championship timber. There is no way, NO WAY, you can make a run at a national championship with special teams like this. The only goal scored on all our PP's was by Cornell, shorthanded.
Almost unwatchable.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:48 PM ^
I remember 1:33 into the game it looked like we'd be up 8-0 by this point.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:49 PM ^
Sadface
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:50 PM ^
Yeah, so did the refs, and they said, "we can't have this"
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:54 PM ^
You sound like Sparty bitchin about the refs when things don't go your way.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:56 PM ^
I think the refs have been more than generous to us tonight in the grand scheme of things.
March 23rd, 2012 at 11:00 PM ^
I do too... Nobody has anything to bitch about when Michigan gets two 5 on 3s. Of course, Cornell has made it easy with the hits to the head and from behind, but the refs have called a decent game.
Hypothetically, even if a ref blows a call, you gotta dig down deep and play the other 59 minutes. Anyone who whines about the refs like the trolls in here has never played sports at a high level before.
If you take care of your business, nothing else matters!!!
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:49 PM ^
"Cornell has done more on Michigan's power play than Michigan."
Says it all.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:49 PM ^
Have we had a good offense since the departure of the Porter-Kolarik-Patch line? I'm losing my mind watching the powerplay which has been the entirety of the 2nd period. And we gave up a shorty. Powerplay is epicly bad tonight. 0 for 7? 8? with a shorty
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:49 PM ^
that sketchers commercial cracks me up every time
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:50 PM ^
I GOT TO SEE UMD'S WINNING GOAL AGAIN!!!
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:51 PM ^
Cheer up. Next year they'll play Cornell's shorty.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:50 PM ^
And there's the fucking goal again. I think that's a jinx on our game
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:50 PM ^
Unfortunately, passes don't show up on the scoreboard.
What is it about this program where we just completely fold in the tournament? Why can't these guys actually show up for a game? The number of times we've flamed out in the regional, getting outplayed by inferior teams, it's maddening.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:53 PM ^
Soon we'll be able to have a competition with Miami for Most Dissapointing Tournament Team. You'd think a team with our pedigree would know how to play in the tournament. We probably have the most tournament minutes of any team in the whole thing
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:54 PM ^
that's just because we always go to it. It's hard to blow it as a top seed when you're never a top seed
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:56 PM ^
We... kind of made the title game last year.
And single elimination hockey is utterly insane. Best case you're like a 60% favorite, so winning four in a row = 13% shot to win if you're in every year. So we're one title below expectations (specifically, the '97 or the '08 title when we had the best team)
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:50 PM ^
Makes Tim Hardaway look like the energizer bunny
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:51 PM ^
Is that overturned call really fucking with their heads that much??
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:53 PM ^
Think about the '08 Michigan vs. Wisconsin football game and how quickly the momentum turned in that game. Now double that and you've got what that call seems to have done.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:51 PM ^
Time for rally caps and jerseys.
LETS GO BLUE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:52 PM ^
Nice robotic bullshit answers. The pr rep is proud dude. He's having a fucking beer.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:52 PM ^
this has been a DISGRACEFUL effort.
I am filled with rage.
Why did they freaking bother?
The lack of precision, the other thoughtlessness, the complete absence of jump and the lack of will to respond after the disallowed goal is ridiculous.
I am seriously going to stroke out, I am so f****** angry right now.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:53 PM ^
I really hope they stop calling penalties on both teams. Disrupts the flow of the game, and we clearly can't do shit with a man advantage.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:53 PM ^
We had better hope the refs don't deceide to "even up the calls"...we will be shorthanded damn near the entire third period.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:57 PM ^
That's about the only thing that kept us from being shut out against Western last weekend
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:55 PM ^
slapping some folks in the face. WAKE THE F*** UP!
And my stupid f'n firefox keeps crashing so I get to watch them suck in pixels.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:55 PM ^
UMD goal again. Awesome. That's probably getting close to the 10th time this game
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:55 PM ^
OMG I LOVE WATCHING THAT GOAL OVER AND OVER EVERY COMMECRCIAL BREAK!!!!!
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:58 PM ^
Our Maize looks kinda orange in that commercial. Brian likes it.
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:57 PM ^
How about a little support for Michigan instead of all this whining? I don't see your fat asses out there. Looks easy from TV doesn't it? As a fan base, you people digust me. Let's go blue!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:58 PM ^
There it is!
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:58 PM ^
How do you know I'm fat? Oh shit, is my camera on again?
March 23rd, 2012 at 11:03 PM ^
pleasantly plump?
March 23rd, 2012 at 11:05 PM ^
I prefer "cirrhotic"
March 23rd, 2012 at 10:59 PM ^
I'm whining because this team is playing to about 25% of their potential in the most important game of the season to date. Michigan has higher expectations than "Golly, I'm glad we made the postseason!"
