Michigan won 4-2 last night. Tonight's on Comcast, let's do it again. Nice to have these games on TV. For those not with the right channel:

Whoop de do lake state got what will officially go in the books as a tie. They still haven't beaten Michigan in 15 tries.

If Michigan had Hunwick they would have won this like last night, but you know how that goes. Hey, a tie is better than a loss.

Hope that Shawn feels better really quickly because look who is next on the schedule.

Anyone worried about Michigan not having home ice in the conference tournament needs to relax. Check the standings. The middle of the pack is separated by only a couple points each. For example, if Michigan won tonight they would have sole possesion of 4th place. But now they're 7th because of a TIE.

I think this Michigan team can manage getting into the Top-4 in the standings and getting home ice. They need to avoid the 5 spot completely because that would be a road series at the 4 seed and most likely a nationally ranked school.

They can win the CCHA Tournament.

I believe.

Win and tie on the weekend is OK in my book. There's plenty of opportunities in the rest of the season for other teams to choke. Michigan just needs to take care of business with its own games as best we can. Hunwick being out certainly did not help our chances tonight.

Treais played a horrible game.  

 

Glendening has done nothing all season; I expect more from the captain of this team.  Doesn't even seem like he is a leader on the ice (on top of the fact that he doesn't touch the scoresheet).

 

EDIT: And before you neg me, even AJ agrees with me:
