Michigan - Michigan Tech: Open Thread
One hour until puck drop, let's get some hockey conversation going to take our minds off the football game. Michigan goes for the sweep tonight against Michigan Tech, with a few changes to the lineup.

I think its being played out here for me on FCS Atlantic but not till 930. Not sure whether I should try to wait for the tape delayed version or look for a stream elsewhere for the regular puck drop
November 2nd, 2013 at 6:08 PM ^
November 2nd, 2013 at 6:19 PM ^
Game is on Fox Sports Detroit at 7
November 2nd, 2013 at 6:42 PM ^
but it looks like a web stream is going to be put up soon for the game tonight
November 2nd, 2013 at 6:40 PM ^
Let's Go Blue!
Definitely looking for better results on the ice today.
November 2nd, 2013 at 6:53 PM ^
Per Red, Kevin Lohan will have surgery and is going to miss a few months.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:06 PM ^
Damn. It didn't look good when he left the ice. Wishing him a full and swift recovery.

May show up at the above link I posted in a bit

This is the Huskies first visit to Yost since 1984. Pretty amazing they never came to Yost for any non-conference games in almost 20 years
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:15 PM ^
Tech looking pretty good again tonight. It'll be interesting to see how they do in the WCHA this year. Id like to say "I think theyll do well" but inevitably those teams that play us well end up sucking despite how well they play us
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:17 PM ^
which is pretty sweet.
Also, looks like this will be another game where I talk to myself here
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:19 PM ^
Sorry, been perusing the coaching snowflake thread.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:19 PM ^
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:22 PM ^
Lots of seats available tonight. Go for it.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:35 PM ^
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:27 PM ^
Nice shift from the kid line, getting the puck on net and driving into the paint. Still scoreless.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:29 PM ^
We can haz PPG?
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:30 PM ^
I enjoy seeing Tech in Yost, rather than another random team like a RIT or St Lawrence or something. I still dream of the day when there's a (State of) Michigan Cup or something like it. This is probably the only sport in the state where so many universities compete at the highest level together
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:31 PM ^
Lotta time in the zone; unfortunately, no goal yet.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:32 PM ^
Dammit, Moffatt for slashing.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:33 PM ^
A ton of what I would call 'good' passing
Except Moffatt takes a slashing penalty and we go to 4x4 for :16
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:34 PM ^
And Tech to the box.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:34 PM ^
And Techs a penalty now so we're back to 4x4 for :45
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:36 PM ^
I'm just going to stay here. I sometimes venture to the MSU threads and its crazy out there
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:39 PM ^
For the most part we're level headed on the hockey threads, and the guys who usually cause problems got banned in the football threads.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:44 PM ^
I was thinking about it today too. Its much easier to handle a loss in hockey or basketball because every loss isnt devastating. Plus, as long as we're winning most games, we always have our shot in the NCAAs. Football is so much different
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:41 PM ^
My weather prediction wasn't too bad.
I figure it's going to be mostly gloomy with a chance of victory. With a loss fast-moving storm will roll in - head for shelter immediately.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:41 PM ^
Copp! 1-0 U-M!
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:41 PM ^
Michigan gets another shot on the power play
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:42 PM ^
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:42 PM ^
Andrew Copp, it's 1-0
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:42 PM ^
On the powerplay. Our fearless leader Andrew Copp has bestowed upon us another great goal.
1-0
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:42 PM ^
Robo-Copp scores again!
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:43 PM ^
Back on the PP.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:44 PM ^
So about 1:55 of PP time to start the 2nd. Good good
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:45 PM ^
They're getting chippy, and the refs aren't going to allow it.
November 2nd, 2013 at 7:54 PM ^
Per @umichhockey, shots 11-6 in our favor. Much better than last night.
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:11 PM ^
D'OH! On the PK.
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:11 PM ^
Clare to the box, back to the PK
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:21 PM ^
Whoa, C YA!
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:22 PM ^
MTU back to the box
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:25 PM ^
sure would ease my tension level. Still haven't recovered emotionally from this afternoon's beat-down.
Good---going on a power play right now...
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:26 PM ^
during the PP, but no goal.
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:28 PM ^
/sigh. Back on the PK.
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:29 PM ^
Tech back on the PP
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:34 PM ^
and still up 1-0. Not sure what to make of this series. It certainly looks like a massive mismatch on paper but the games have been fairly even. Tech better than it seems? Michigan worse? Just let down games?
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:50 PM ^
Shots 22-14 in U-M's favor. Only 17-39 on faceoffs.
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:51 PM ^
I love how much hockey is on TV now. I'm spoiled
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:54 PM ^
November 2nd, 2013 at 8:54 PM ^
Selman!! 2-0 U-M!!
