Doesn't seem to be as loud there. I am sure the quality of hockey this season has something to do with that.

Not to pile on hockey, but:

1. What are we wearing?

2. I know for some other games section 22 is sparse, but its pretty sad to not see the 'ole barn all filled up for msu.

 

Go Blue!  Lets work to get some home ice in round 1 and go from there!

will have an ugly looking torso in the morning. That looked like a rib or two for sure.

Edit: Looks like an upper arm from the other angle. Announcers said shoulder but it looked lower than that.

if you ask me. I get it, especially on the back shoulder like that, but that wasn't a dead to rights boarding call in my opinion.

Also, jeez. This game would be going very differently with someone other than air occupying some of those passing lanes the forecheckers have been taking. Some of it has been bad luck with getting a good stick on a shot, but there needs to be someone there before we make these passes.

Michigan is wearing the Maize Throwback they were supposed to wear for the GLI but didn't. It's alright I guess. I just want hockey to go back to the good ole days of the diagonal Michigan maize. Enough with this throwback shit.

So, i know we've been struggling, but what's really been the reason behind it?  I don't follow hockey close enough, what happened?  What has to happen to make the post season?

Michigan doesn't have to make the CCHA playoffs, they're automatically in. All 11 teams are. They need to finish 8 or higher if they want any shot at winning the whole thing because the last place you wanna be is on two road trips should you make it out of round 1.

MGoBlueTV will carry every home game and road conference game next year I've been told when I emailed the Michigan-IMG Sports network. It's $80 for a one year. You not only get hockey but full access to all sports being broadcast on it.

Me either,. In hockey, announcers only provide analysis during dead pucks. I just tune them out in the play by play b/c I can see for myself what is happening. It's not like fb all where there is a lot of dead air to fill b/w each play and you hear from announcers alot
