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?“Demolish the bridges behind you… then there is no choice but to build again.”

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?Last edited by aparch; 11-11-2016, 04:21 PM.“Demolish the bridges behind you… then there is no choice but to build again.”
