Michigan Hockey vs New Hampshire open thread
October 17th, 2014 at 7:16 PM ^
How has the team been so far or is this their first real game?
October 17th, 2014 at 7:40 PM ^
Let in 2 goals in the first 1:08 and lost 4-3 so not terrible outside of that minute. Hard to take much from that
October 17th, 2014 at 7:17 PM ^
GO BLUE!!
October 17th, 2014 at 7:39 PM ^
4 games for $10 aint bad. (2x UNH, 2x American Intl)
October 17th, 2014 at 7:45 PM ^
Michigan looks like the better and faster team so far....
though Nagelvoort misplayed the puck and nearly gave up an easy goal for UNH
October 17th, 2014 at 7:48 PM ^
Definitely no Turco behind the net along the boards. ..
October 17th, 2014 at 7:53 PM ^
We're having trouble entering the zone, much less maintaining possession there
October 17th, 2014 at 7:55 PM ^
9:53 left in the 1st...
October 17th, 2014 at 7:59 PM ^
Probably 3 or 4 grade A chances. No dice though
October 17th, 2014 at 8:09 PM ^
UNH to the PP with 1:25 left in the 1st
October 17th, 2014 at 8:11 PM ^
Chaos in front and someone put it in.
Typical. Outplayed them the entire period and 1st real chance they get it goes in.
October 17th, 2014 at 8:21 PM ^
Sounds like typical Michigan hockey to me.
October 17th, 2014 at 8:12 PM ^
Completely outplayed them...and down 1-0
October 17th, 2014 at 8:20 PM ^
Sounds like we at least look good? In the other game, Zetterberg with an awesome steal and assist. 1-0 after 1

Can I just say that I find it to be a complete and utter joke that Franzan is wearing the A?
October 17th, 2014 at 8:29 PM ^
Yeah the offense looks crisp. You can really see the talent there. As we all know, that doesnt always pay off in goals though
October 17th, 2014 at 8:37 PM ^
Stupid. UNH barely kept the puck in our zone and got a quick 2-on-2. Buried it.
Hard to tell on this SD, CN900 internet feed but it looked like Nagelvoort may have misplayed it in someway
Edit: Nagelvoort slid across the crease to address the pass and literally didn't make it across. He slid across and stopped 3/4 of the way and the UNH player buried it in the open space
October 17th, 2014 at 8:37 PM ^
fire DB and Hoke and Berseson and then tennis coach Steinberg......
October 17th, 2014 at 8:38 PM ^
Because it makes sense to fire him 4.5 periods into the season...
October 17th, 2014 at 8:41 PM ^
He was joking about Red and Steinberg. Steinberg hasn't even coached a match yet.
October 17th, 2014 at 8:40 PM ^
and fire Sriram Hathwar (2014 spelling bee champ)......seems like this is what everybody wants!
October 17th, 2014 at 8:41 PM ^
Another bungled play nearly made it 3-0
October 17th, 2014 at 8:43 PM ^
Down 0-3 now. Just wow.
Same old shit.
October 17th, 2014 at 8:44 PM ^
Quick 2-on-1. Looked like someone whiffed on a pinch.
Early in the season, but there's way too much talent on this team for this kind of showing
October 17th, 2014 at 8:46 PM ^
They've meandered through the regular season in 4 of the last 5 years, missing two tournaments. It's absolutely ridiculous given the amount of talent on these teams.
October 17th, 2014 at 8:48 PM ^
I'm still holding out hope this season will be different, but there's little debate that Michigan has been bad compared to their talent level ever since the 07-08 team and Hunwick's tenure
October 17th, 2014 at 8:45 PM ^
In better news, my alma mater (Miami -- NTM) is laying the smackdown to OSU, at OSU, by the same score. So hey...there's that.
And hey -- Wings are up 2-0 at Toronto.
October 17th, 2014 at 8:45 PM ^
Damn, M game sounds ugly. Z with another amazing setup for Franzen, 2-0 Wings

Everything changed after UNH got the 1st goal
October 17th, 2014 at 8:45 PM ^
scoring 3 straight will give you that jump in your step I guess...
October 17th, 2014 at 8:52 PM ^
Well on 2nd glance not robbed. Motte put it right into the goalies glove
I think shots are 17-17 now. But still getting pwned by UNH this period
October 17th, 2014 at 8:54 PM ^
Nearly 4-0
October 17th, 2014 at 8:55 PM ^
Feeling pretty okay about not being there tonight. Ouch
October 17th, 2014 at 8:57 PM ^
0-4
What a disaster/joke.
October 17th, 2014 at 8:58 PM ^
I am listening. can't see the replay
October 17th, 2014 at 8:59 PM ^
I haven't seen any of the game, but catching on the posts it looks like we're getting throughly dominated.
October 17th, 2014 at 9:01 PM ^
We outplayed UNH most of the 1st. Shots were 9-3 at one point and we had a bunch of chances, then UNH got a PPG and it's been an absolute mess since then. Probably just 2-3 scoring chance for us since then. 2nd period has been an utter disaster
October 17th, 2014 at 8:59 PM ^
So that's 8 fucking goals given up in two regular season games.
October 17th, 2014 at 8:59 PM ^
Seriously, the people who declared 2014 a great year for UM sports - in February - need to be punched in the balls. I can't remember, but I might be one of them.
October 17th, 2014 at 9:00 PM ^
We were all so blind by basketball
October 17th, 2014 at 9:01 PM ^
I said it too...WHO CARES BASKETBALL STARTS SOON.
October 17th, 2014 at 9:02 PM ^
Basketball was outstanding (again). The crumbling-by-the-minute Football program and underachieving Hockey program are the ones ruining it.
October 17th, 2014 at 9:00 PM ^
Perhaps it will be year 3 of watching a very talented team try to figure out how to score more than 2 goals a night
October 17th, 2014 at 9:01 PM ^
So... Is it time for Berenson to call it a day after this season?
Underperforming seems like it's the theme for Michigan Hockey lately.
October 17th, 2014 at 9:03 PM ^
Certainly not a promising start, and I've watched enough Michigan hockey to know that we generally are what we are. At this point we look like a talented team on offense and perhaps a mess on D.
In four games (with 2 exhibitions), we've given up 4, 4, 2, and 4+. I think the D is going to be real rough this year
October 17th, 2014 at 9:04 PM ^
I've been talking about this since last year.
Bennett or Pearson.
October 17th, 2014 at 9:05 PM ^
Tbh I think the AD would explode trying to replace the Football and Hockey Head Coaches in 1 year lol. Granted the timings are different, but still given history....
