Students - Nice Job at the Joe
I was at Joe Louis Saturday night. Want to compliment the students. That was by far the largest contingent of U of M students I have seen at the Joe.
My daughter even noted that it was loud enough that there were times Northern's band was playing and they could not even be heard.
Red had it right when he gave credit to the fans for helping the team pull off the win.

I'm glad I am not the only one. It seemed like there was at least twice the number of Michigan fans who attended last year.

Congratulations on being able to enjoy it in person. It showed nicely on TV. Particularly at the conclusion. You really got a feel (just a feel mind you) for the frustration release and utter joy that the Michigan faithful was enjoying at the end. If only I had smell-o-vision.

Great Job -- heard you at the other end of the ice. (i was stuck near the NMU band/fat guy stippers -- ewwwh!) to all of us there, great job cheering the team; it felt like Yost!
Shegos can kiss my backside. he got not one but two major penalty calls wrong -- butthead, if he gets those right, i could breathe sometime in the second period not having to wait until the there is only 3.5sec left.
I particularly liked the Go Blue chant after one of the goals. Just listening to it I thought it was a TV feed from Yost.
Outstanding job supporting the team at Munn and Joe Louis.
As a CPA in busy season with a 10 month old and a father in the hospital, I had zero chance to participate in the CCHA tourney run and it kills me. Well done!
I was very proud to count myself among the gargantuan Maize-clad contingent present.
Go Blue!
And it did feel like Yost. I went down to the glass to get this picture with my phone
I hate to speak in douche speak but...SWEEEEEET!!!
I can only agree. I was following the live stream and had the sublime joy to hear the Michigan faithful blazing through my laptop speakers. There were moments where I thought that the game had to be at Yost, despite knowledge to the contrary.
Yost East, baby. Just like the old days.
Go Blue.
Kinda like the new arena we just acquired up in Lansing?
Um, that would be Yost North, yes sir. :)
I was really upset that I couldn't make Lake State...
Going to MSU and then watching us own Miami and outlast Northern made me forget all about it. =)

i too watched on tv and the atmosphere seemed great. lots of audible cheers even on a very much mixed down FSD feed. definitely a Yost-like feel.
that's in stark contrast to last year's championship game, which i was at. despite having a full house, and a Michigan-biased crowd, it was one of the worst atmospheres for a college hockey game i've ever seen. after that game i swore i'd never go to a college hockey game at the Joe again. after last night, i'd consider changing my stance on that.
I was lucky enough to be in the area last night for a family function and even more lucky to be able to sneak away from said function to go to the Joe.
