      At least that team made it to the Joe consistently.

          Can the Falcons stop the bleeding in Goals Allowed (36 in 10GP)? Only two WCHA teams have given up more goals: Alabama-Huntsville (47 in 12GP) and Alaska (37 in 10GP). Chris Nell was reputed as one of the best, but the stats don't lie: he's up about a goal a game and has gone from .930 to .866. When Tomas Shall is in the lineup, that's not good.

          BG has been snakebite all year and has been inconsistent the last season-and-a-half —*just look at the five Kevin Gordon BGSUHockey.com notebooks on consistence in 2016 alone. I know that Chris Bergeron has to be frustrated.

          My BELOW tool doesn't much like either team; BG has been in free-fall all year. Ferris State and BG have three conference wins between the two of them, with two coming in a series split.

          This league has typically been separated into three strata since realignment: three at the top, three or four in the middle, and four or three at the bottom. Now it's looking something like 3-2-5, and again, that's because BG has a nice head start with how BELOW regresses to the mean. [In the morning, there'll be a new piece about what happens if we assume that all teams are league average at the start of the season. Maybe I'll remember to post it here.]

            Cat's beat and tied Ferris on Ferris' home ice. Cat's haven't won at home against BGSU since February 2014. (To be fair, this weekend will be the fourth and fifth game since that last home win vs BGSU). If the 'Cats couldn't sweep Ferris three weeks ago after Ferris had already lost six in a row, the 'Cats are going to have trouble against BGSU.

            That said, this team CAN do it. We've seen spits and spurts from this team that show their ability. GOTTA piece it together again. Need to play every game like it's Friday night against Wisconsin or Friday night against Ferris.


            Has anyone heard if NMU is doing anything for the 40th anniversary this season? Having any of the 80, 81, or 91 teams come drop the puck?

              There was a team reunion this summer. This is the 41st season.

                NMU's "Jekyll & Hyde" season continues this weekend with Bowling Green in town???? A home sweep at The Berry would be huge for the Cats!!!!!!!

                  Mathematically correct, we are in the 41st season of the program; but October 29th, 1976 at Lakeview versus St. Louis University was the first game of the program. October 29th, 1976 minus November 11th, 2016 = 40 years and two weeks.

                  Or... The 40th Anniversary.

                  Lake State is celebrating their 50th Anniversary and their first game was in 1966 (of the 1966/67 season). They're in their 51st season too, yet they have fancy 50th Anniversary logos on their website and celebrating five all decade teams.


                  Yes, the reunion was nice, but what is being done *this season* that would be of interest to fans to come to games?

                    Fans? Your fans wanted beer in the arena? You got beer (and upgraded food too), no more fans. They wanted winning hockey. They were 4-0-4 at home with a ranked UMD coming in, 2,000, maybe. They wanted a video board. You got one of those. Sure, the house was packed for Tech, but you got 1800 for Bemidji and I wonder if you'll match that for Bowling Green, Omaha or Huntsville. Hockeyville USA?
