man, back in my days in AA we had the lamest practice jerseys. think of the lowest quality, one-color mesh jerseys you've ever seen and that was it. there were four separate colors to split the guys up, and that was it. no logos, not shimmering nice stuff, just plastic nothingness,
kids these days....
November 4th, 2022 at 6:59 PM ^
Looks like Portillo is out tonight. Noah West starting.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:01 PM ^
Holy cow!
November 4th, 2022 at 7:08 PM ^
Some other changes: McGroarty centering, still with TJ Hughes, but with Estapa on the wing. Brindley's centering Hallum & Moyle. Ciccolini & Draper in. Granowicz & Luca Fantilli out.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:09 PM ^
(1) any word on why Portillo is fully scratched (rather than merely sitting out)?
(2) what’s the scouting report on Noah West?
November 4th, 2022 at 7:14 PM ^
No idea, pregame audio usually starts 30 min prior to game time.
West hasn't played a lot. There's some info on the lineup card.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:19 PM ^
He's sick.

Bummer. Get well soon, big guy!
November 4th, 2022 at 7:50 PM ^
Feels weird to be relieved to hear that, but I am.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:20 PM ^
Not good.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:31 PM ^
Perhaps the team will make extra efforts to block shots and clear rebounds.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:11 PM ^
Other games: WI 0 @ FYS 0, mid 1st. ND @ MN.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:35 PM ^
Al said Portillo didn't make the trip.
Other game: Bummer, FYS scored twice, lead 2-0 after one.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:51 PM ^
Damn, is volleyball going to go over? Purdue 5, MSU 4 in 4th set, Purdue ahead 2-1.
November 4th, 2022 at 7:59 PM ^
Back to BTN plus?!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:00 PM ^
I guess? Or Fox Sports app. Puck drop actually at 8:04. BTN will join after volleyball is over.
Go Purdue! Up 16-8.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:01 PM ^
Am I crazy or is this volleyball game nowhere close to being over. Who is watching this
November 4th, 2022 at 8:02 PM ^
Purdue needs to win - that'll be the quickest.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:03 PM ^
At least Purdue will win in 4 sets. 🤞
November 4th, 2022 at 8:01 PM ^
Very interesting how michigan will play without Portillo
November 4th, 2022 at 8:02 PM ^
Yes, hopefully not too "interesting."
November 4th, 2022 at 8:08 PM ^
Im somewhat afraid this program has gotten used to Portillo bailing them out. Breakaways and OMRs arent gonna go as well with West (I am assuming - unless he's Hunwick II)
November 4th, 2022 at 8:04 PM ^
C'mon, Purdue, block that shit!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:06 PM ^
Game on! Let's Go Blue!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:07 PM ^
Save, West!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:09 PM ^
Stop screwing around, Purdue, finish them!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:10 PM ^
Purdue, match point ...
... Oh, FFS....
Finally! FYS!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:11 PM ^
Dammit MSU. Just go home. You arent winning this one
November 4th, 2022 at 8:12 PM ^
That cant be fun coaching and being pregnant
November 4th, 2022 at 8:18 PM ^
Hasnt MacEachern been on Penn State for 7 years now. I've been hearing his name for years
November 4th, 2022 at 8:22 PM ^
Hey, interference on Casey or sometthing?
November 4th, 2022 at 8:24 PM ^
Yeah I didn't know you could just check a guy in the face several seconds after he passed the puck. You learn something new every day!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:23 PM ^
The ice seems terrible. Pucks bouncing everywhere, several guys have lost their edge
November 4th, 2022 at 8:24 PM ^
Slush really hurts our ability to play fast.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:25 PM ^
Oh, it was Duke? Being reviewed.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:26 PM ^
Call stands. FUCK YOU, REFS!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:28 PM ^
I don’t know how they could miss it on the ice. 2 minutes for interference is the bare minimum there.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:27 PM ^
That was absolutely interference, but I don't know what the challenge rules are
November 4th, 2022 at 8:28 PM ^
We lost our TO. They can only make a call if it's a major, when nothing was called.
[Edit] We can still challenge, but if we lose, then it's a Delay of Game minor.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:29 PM ^
WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA C YA!
Elbowing on them @ 15:01.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:31 PM ^
D'OH! Too many men on us [@ 16:05]. 56 sec of 4-on-4.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:31 PM ^
Too many men while you're on the power play. Not great
November 4th, 2022 at 8:32 PM ^
On the PK for just over a minute.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:33 PM ^
Jeez, don't fan on the clear!
Yay, PK!
November 4th, 2022 at 8:34 PM ^
WTF?! Someone should have gone to the boards, it was 3 v 1, and we were the 1.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:36 PM ^
0-0 after one. West standing tall.
Shots: U-M 4, PSU [edit] 16.
November 4th, 2022 at 8:37 PM ^
BTN crew needs to do their homework. Penn State shooting a bazillion shots is not 'dominating'. They always take a high volume of low percentage shots
November 4th, 2022 at 8:38 PM ^
They're controlling play.
