Where can I find highlights to the game last night?
February 8th, 2014 at 4:28 PM ^
I've been looking for highlights or even a photo gallery from last night and I haven't found anything. I don't know why PSU didn't post any or apparently share any with the Michigan AD
February 8th, 2014 at 4:54 PM ^
That is one of the things I miss most about the CCHA. The CCHA posted highlights to EVERY game the day after the game.
February 8th, 2014 at 5:05 PM ^
The CCHA had a really nice youtube thing going in their final two season. The "CCHA NOW" segment was solid. Gave some highlights, top plays, and some level of analysis. BTN is obviously providing good TV support, but I wish there was more web/youtube stuff.
The NCHC is kicking our butt in this regard - however, they lack their own TV network so it's understandable
February 8th, 2014 at 4:06 PM ^
but not until 5pm.
Just the medicine this board might need after what just ended on basic ESPN.
February 8th, 2014 at 4:07 PM ^
What would be a good spread for this game? My brother went to PSU and I want to bet on this game with him. Michigan -2 sound right?
February 8th, 2014 at 4:12 PM ^
February 8th, 2014 at 4:27 PM ^
He agreed to -2 so oh well. The bet? a 6-pack of hopslam.
GO BLUE!
February 8th, 2014 at 4:13 PM ^
wants a chance to win that bet, he'd ask for PSU +4.
Heck, 5 might not be enough if Michigan brings their "A" game.,
February 8th, 2014 at 4:21 PM ^
Penn State was clearly outmatched yesterday. Unless we have meltdowns (which we did for 2 mins in the 2nd period yesterday) we just dominate them.
I'm still a bit baffled how Penn State ended up outshooting us last night. That didn't tell the whole story.
February 8th, 2014 at 4:14 PM ^
February 8th, 2014 at 4:27 PM ^
There hasn't been anything from the Windsor side about trying to flip him.
He's played in 15 games so it's not like they stapled him to the bench like Milne, and there will be opportunities to move up next year.

February 8th, 2014 at 4:26 PM ^
My take on tonight:
Worry if...
- Nagelvoort (or Racine) continues to give up delicious rebounds. All three of PSU's goals last night were a result of Nagelvoort not corraling the puck and giving PSU 2nd, 3rd, and even 4th chances right out in front.
- Everyone tears their ACL in warm-ups
Cackle with knowing glee if...
- Michigan continues to just knock PSU off the puck; enters the PSU zone like the defense isn't there
- You are going to the game.

We should replicate the score tonight
February 8th, 2014 at 4:31 PM ^
Let's Go Blue!
February 8th, 2014 at 4:49 PM ^
chance to go up by 1 on Wisconsin and to close within 3 of Minnesota with two games in hand on both teams.....
have to win today
February 8th, 2014 at 4:54 PM ^
OSU up 1-0 on MSU after 1.
February 8th, 2014 at 5:08 PM ^
Kermit's got nothing on that frog!
February 8th, 2014 at 5:06 PM ^
just butchered Naglevoort
February 8th, 2014 at 5:07 PM ^
Twice.

February 8th, 2014 at 5:06 PM ^
Seeing this game on ESPN. I am on edge just seeing Michigan play on ESPN

Cameraman is drunk as usual
February 8th, 2014 at 5:07 PM ^
they look pretty good
February 8th, 2014 at 5:09 PM ^
I will use this opportunity to place my weekly gripe on this seasons uniforms. I'm really not a fan of this alternate colored solid shoulder thing
February 8th, 2014 at 5:14 PM ^
the jerseys and their "maize" counterparts are roughly what Michigan wore in the 70s
they again have 5 different jerseys this season
February 8th, 2014 at 5:20 PM ^
I'm not all that old and I can remember a time where NHL teams only had two jerseys.

"Gadowsky got Alaska-Fairbanks to the CCHA Super 6"
What in the world is that
February 8th, 2014 at 5:09 PM ^
the CCHA set up their playoff series 1/12, 2/11, 3/10....and so on
the top 6 advanced to Joe Lous and played from there
February 8th, 2014 at 5:09 PM ^
This camerawork is awful
February 8th, 2014 at 5:21 PM ^
February 8th, 2014 at 5:11 PM ^
Seriously, I'm about to drive down to State College and start operating that camera myself. This guy is constantly losing the puck
February 8th, 2014 at 5:12 PM ^
Stream? I don't have ESPNU.
February 8th, 2014 at 5:13 PM ^
but seriously, learn how to say Naglevoort...
February 8th, 2014 at 5:13 PM ^
February 8th, 2014 at 5:14 PM ^
Fuck! They score first, 1-0 them.
February 8th, 2014 at 5:14 PM ^
Well the hockey team doesn't look like they're ready to play today.
February 8th, 2014 at 5:14 PM ^
Not what we needed to start tonight. We're not looking as solid as we did last night
February 8th, 2014 at 5:16 PM ^
Another pass from one of our blueliners up the boards, right at a Penn State forward. We're 23 games into the season and they still make that mistake.
February 8th, 2014 at 5:17 PM ^
Nagelvoort off his game this weekend. He was basically responsible for all three goals last night and let in a softy to start tonight
February 8th, 2014 at 5:23 PM ^
Make that two softies to start the game.
February 8th, 2014 at 5:27 PM ^
I can barely post as fast as we're allowing goals.
February 8th, 2014 at 5:19 PM ^
Michigan is not moving their feet right now (reminds me of another team I watched today...ugh)....being outworked all over the ice right now
February 8th, 2014 at 5:20 PM ^
Is this USAFA goalie in disguise?
February 8th, 2014 at 5:20 PM ^
We're down 1-0 but I'm really not worried. We're settling in and getting some grade A chances. It'll open up soon
February 8th, 2014 at 5:20 PM ^
