Hockey vs Ferris State

Dang it! I was just barely too late to making a thread. I had pictures and everything. 

Anyways, Go Blue! Super excited to watch some Michigan Hockey tonight. First time I've really been able to watch all year! Let's get a win boys!

Let's go blue!!!!!

I know Ferris is pretty pedestrian, and this is the first I’ve seen Michigan play this year. They sure seem more hungry and a lot faster and more aggressive. Do you hockey experts think this is a Mel thing? A personnel thing? I’m I just wrong?

3-1. End of 1st

just keep winning baby and all will be fine !

pretty blatant slash there

Some very sloppy giveaways that LaFontaine is saving our bacon on.

Anyone know why they’re playing on Thursday? I’m used to fri/sat sets from my days. The football night game?

4-2 Michigan, with 11:35 left in the 3rd.

Goooooooooaaaaallllllllll. Sieve, sieve sieve

Goal Calderone.  Rebound off a Ferris turnover and nice play by Marody to set up the initial chance.

I'm not sure even John O'Neill at his worst could allow that to count.  Not well disguised, Will.

5-2 M

5-2, Slaker scores.  Either a snipe or a bad goal depending how you want to look at it.

Feel like we're at least one possession minded, tough guy at D and a rugged PF short, but these guys have heart. Giving Mel an A so far, and we're getting better

7-2

This team is miles ahead of last year. excited for the rest of the year

Wow, this went from a tight game to a total blow-out in not much time.  I like seeing this killer instinct.  All night, this team has looked very different from last year (this is my first chance to watch a full game, so I'm finally getting to see it for myself), but it's especially nice to see the team just completely put a game to bed like this.  Winning with cruelty.

Ferris has quit.  Probably gonna get a bit chippy so we need to not let that carry over to tomorrow night.

out of their misery 

Let's Go Blue!

Do it again tomorrow!

Overall a good game.  Was a bit tight and we had some brutal turnovers in our D zone early in the third period but eventually things started flowing and it was nice to see that we kept the pressure on FSU despite the lead.  I get a sense that right now this team isn't solid enough defensively to simply protect a lead so they might as well stay aggressive.  Excellent showing by LaFontaine.

Interested to see how these team gels and develops.  Continuous improvement.  Keep it up boys!

GO BLUE!!
