LFG. It's time to beat these guys.
game is in AA, right?
Yes, it's at Yost.
Yep.
Kyle Connor pounces on a loose puck & jets to goal.
Catholics vs Lottery Picks. THWND
not going to start a thread about it, but the MWC final is on right now, SDSU v. boise st. good hoops. boise is 3/3 from 3 and lead 11-9 early on.
Johnson, Beniers & Brisson together. Luke Morgan is the extra skater.
So is this somehow single elimination?
Yet the first round is best of 3?
Yeah, just 1st round is a series. :P
Makes no sense.
IIRC Wisconsin got pissy because they host the state high school tournament this weekend. It was some dumb shit like that.
Isn't there HS wrestling in OH, too?
Old Trapper: sponsor checks out.
What’s your beef?
Fig Thing hockey.
Game on!
Pochmara and Fernandez...could be a lot worse.
Nice. Poch and I went to school together. Nice to see him still on the ice.
Save, Portillo!
Michigan with a big possession edge, a few good chances if they could get a stick on the puck going through the house... but no connection yet.
So it's ND's type of game so far. But you just have to stay on game and keep going.
Interference remains legal.
Only when done against Michigan.
Nice, smart rush by KJ gets possession into the zone, a shot just wide, and then a good Brisson chance off of the miss.
I’m obviously biased but I’ve seen a trip, hook, and cross check all not called for Michigan so far. Refs do know they have whistles right?
WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA C YA!
Interference @ 16:35
WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA C YA!!
Tripping @ 17:01.
We can haz PPG?
And we go 5-on-3.
Given how these games go this is kind of a big moment. I don't like that kind of pressure on 5-on-3s, but that's what it is.
No joy.
Good chances. No goal. Ugh.
0-0 after one.
Way better than them but no score. Notre Dame hockey is the worst.
Shots: U-M 9, ND 4.
The unforced errors on the power play kept them in it. The pressure was good.
GO BLUE!!!! It’s our time!!!
Shoot the puck early against ND, have they not learned this after 4 games of 1000 blocked shots? This team has talent sometimes to a detriment. They are always waiting for the perfect opportunity instead of just firing the puck and having some grit to win a battle and get a rebound. You have to win ugly against these guys.
2nd period under way. We can still score first.
I didn’t realize the camera angle was so high at Yost
Double. My bad.
We’re gonna have to get something to show for all this pressure, or we’re gonna regret it.
Couple shaky plays in our own end there.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLL!
Beniers! 1-0 U-M!
Magnifique.
Beauty. Need the first goal against these assholes.
BANG!!
1-0 good guys.
We want MOAR goals!
Beautiful teamwork
Fourth line needs to just shoot and not pretend they're the top five pick line.
