  • Re: Big Ten Hockey 2016-2017

    Cant wait for the conference to start next weekend. Ohio state has a chance to slay the dragon for the first time on the road since this conference started. They havent won at Minnesota in a long time and this league still goes through Minnesota.

      I certainly agree with this. As long as tCHHCoMSU is
      in charge, last place will be a regular happening at Munn Ice Arena.

          The reason for the talent in the west? Because MN didn't rely on Canada.

            I'll be at the Saturday game. I hope I get to see a stick salute meaning your chance to slay the dragon on the road will have to wait another year.

              A Division II banner?

              It seems fitting, somehow.

                  Open the link and look at the pictures - they're all DII banners.

                      I have no delusions about my team's past, only hoping for the best come the future... so we can rid ourselves of those tourney participant banners.

                            OK, time to check in on how things went as we approach the first conference games...

                            Penn State...wow...6-0-0 and climbs to #7
                            Ohio State went 3-2-1 and checks in at #10
                            Minnesota also went 3-2-1 and checks in at #11
                            Michigan went 4-2-0 and is barely there at #20
                            Wisconsin loves them some splits; went 3-3-0 and is still "receiving votes" and is unofficially ranked #29
                            Heck, Michigan State even figured out how to play again and went 3-2-1

                            In general, I'm pleasantly surprised. Short of a sweep against visiting UNO this weekend, Wisconsin hasn't quite done enough to get into the top 20 at the start of conference play.

                            The timing of the games still leaves a possibility that when MSU plays each team that they could be ranked, but getting Wisconsin and Michigan both in the top 20 at the same time in first half of the conference season is going to be pretty tricky. I'm not holding my breath, but it would be kind of cool to see it happen. I'm pretty sure that it would be the first time in modern history that it has happened.

                            Oh, and add in the fact that so far in out of conference performances BTHC is sitting at .637 right now, ahead of the mighty NCHC at .621, and things are looking pretty OK at the moment.
