U-M Hockey @ ND - Friday Open Thread
Scoring first: good. Scoring 4 goals unanswered: better. Crushing the
Fig Things, seeing them driven before you, and hearing the lamentations of their women: best.
Time: 6:30PM ET
Watch: NBCS (TV) | nbcsports.com (stream)
Listen: MGoBlue Audio
Let's Go Blue! Crush the Fig Things again and sweep them into the dustbin of history!

I did not hear the lamentations of their women - but perhaps that happens tonight?!
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:05 PM ^
I’d like to see gnashing of the teeth and tearing of the clothes (hockey sweaters?) myself ...

Semi-related but apparently the NBCSports channel is shutting down at the end of 2021. A bunch of games will be moved to USA but I assume that means a lot will be put on Peacock or other paid services moving forward.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:03 PM ^
Makes sense given that everyone is going to streaming rather than cable, but im not subscribing to another service... Especially since Newcastle is playing like garbage.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:05 PM ^
Great beer ... bad soccer
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:17 PM ^
BOO! more paid services.
January 22nd, 2021 at 5:55 PM ^
Is there a closed thread? Why are these called open threads
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:06 PM ^
Well, clearly you don’t sit at the MGoBlog “Kool Kids Table” or you’d know about the closed threads ... very few invited ....
January 22nd, 2021 at 8:03 PM ^
Sure, go ahead, rub it in. You get invited to the MGoBlog "Kool Kids Table".
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:07 PM ^
Fuck the Fig Things
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:19 PM ^
Is anyone else not getting any audio from the MGoBlue link?
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:31 PM ^
Yes, but it works now.

Other games: WI 0, PSU 2, late in 1st. ASU 2, MN 4, start of 3rd.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:40 PM ^
Belatedly, GOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLL!
Pastujov! 1-0 U-M!
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:42 PM ^
Play created by Blankenberg's speed. But stupidly lucky bounce off both legs of the guy trying to block the shot.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:44 PM ^
I won't turn down a little puck luck. Especially when it results in the 1st goal.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:42 PM ^
What, no tripping on ND?
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:43 PM ^
Michael Pastujov from Owen Power and Thomas Bordeleau and less than 2 minutes in Michigan is on the board pic.twitter.com/SnRmTC7ll0

Good read by Pastujov on the steal, but I'm not sure he's the guy who could finish that.
[Edit] Although on replay, he did make the goalie make a shoulder save.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:49 PM ^
FUCK! They score, 1-1.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:49 PM ^
Under review - probably will stand
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:51 PM ^
Looks like their guy pushed Blankenburg into Mann. NO GOALLL
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:50 PM ^
So can you crosscheck our guy into our goalie?
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:51 PM ^
This shouldn’t stand
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:51 PM ^
ND checks Blankenberg into Mann to clear the net out for a goal. This probably stands because Big Ten.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:51 PM ^
Nope! No goal!
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:51 PM ^
No way that should count
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:52 PM ^
Wow. B1G refs get obvious call correct. Film at 11.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:52 PM ^
Is it bad that I'm surprised at the review result?
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:52 PM ^
Me every time a replay goes in our favor:
That’s the first time that’s ever happened!
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:54 PM ^
More like
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:56 PM ^
No interference either. Sheesh. We better not get called for some ticky tack shit like last game.
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:57 PM ^
Gimme more salty ND announcers!!!
January 22nd, 2021 at 6:59 PM ^
I thought the guys last night did a pretty good job being objective. For some reason, I don’t have access to this game on my TV tonight. Are they getting all up in their feelings?
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:00 PM ^
Theyve been fine, really. But I still want more salty homer announcers.
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:03 PM ^
The color analyst is Kendall Coyne Schofield. You may have heard of her husband, Michael.
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:52 PM ^
Amazing how he keeps breaking himself out of prison.
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:02 PM ^
Having trouble clearing the zone tonight
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:04 PM ^
That's no bueno.
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:04 PM ^
Good lord that neutral zone is clogged up.
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:07 PM ^
1-0 U-M after one.
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:09 PM ^
Shots: 12 all.
WI 1, PSU 3, midway through 2nd. ASU 2, MN 10, final. At least they didn't get shutout?
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:09 PM ^
Pretty Irish style in that period. Nice to have the lead and hopefully force them to open it up.
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:09 PM ^
Thanks for the NBC link, OP! Tuned in just in time to watch them skate off the ice!
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:25 PM ^
Man, too bad we couldn't capitalize on Power intercepting the pass from their sieve.
January 22nd, 2021 at 7:30 PM ^
FUCK! They score, tipped, 1-1.
