GLI 3rd Place Game

Neither team wanted to be playing the early game today, but it is Michigan - Michigan State.

No score in the 1st period, but we do have a fight!

My brother just sent me a few pics of the fight. He said we have 4 guys in the box and they have 2 in theirs. All of them got 2 and 10. Does that lead to suspension for next game or is that only if it’s a match penalty?

I dropped the super extra cable package in my area (out of state) which means I don't get BTN which means I basically never get to see the hockey team anymore. If M hockey was on regular BTN more often, I'd probably pay up to get the upper package, but I recall them shoving most games on BTN+. I always thought the creation of the BTHC would result in a lot more hockey on BTN but that doesn't seem to be the case.

BTN-Plus (which this game was not on, and BTN charges you more for) are games announced and staffed by students.  Feel blessed that you don't have to watch/listen to such games.

But BTN itself, and FSN, should be showing much more hockey than they have been doing.  Probably a continuing cutback by BTN from showing non-revenue sports, aside from the conference championship events.  Heck, I've noticed much less Michigan softball and baseball during the spring seasons too.

i have it on good authority that our very own srjk may be in attendance, rooting for the maize and blue.  if you see a guy that looks like he should be playing left tackle, wearing some michigan stuff, that might be him. 

EDIT: i see he posted simultaneously from the game, so i guess my authority was spot on.

Having not seen the team live yet, do we just fire everything possible at the net no matter how quality a shot? Seems as though we are always outshooting by like 3 or 4 to 1 with little to show.

Updates brought to you courtesy of ToledoWolverine’s little brother, NTLB, who is at the game. Said he made the Jumbotron celebrating the tying goal, so he has that going for him.

Just have to start playing right conference games... the 14-16 slots are more than likely going to be .500 teams from the B1G right now. M, Minnesota, and Wisconsin are all “tournament” talent-level teams... they just all play each other.
