    I'll let others tell me if total number of shots is a good substitute for 'puck movement'. but UW outshot Clarkson 41-to-19 in the Championship game (and outshot BC 36-to-22 in the semi). So....

    (Edit: shots in the 2016 semi were Minn 41, UW 39)

      I'm looking forward to this weekend series. We will see if WI 12-0 start is a fluke, or if Ohio is over rated.

      Both could be legit, if so its going to be a couple fun games to watch.

        The start for UW was no fluke or MN would have exposed it. I don't think OSU is over-rated.

          I can't say, my seats sucked for seeing puck movement quality and I have not watched the video yet.

            So far this year*, the Gophers have been too busy exposing their own flaws to expose yours.

            *Until today. They looked really good in the first game against MSU.

                    I know this is off topic -- and is not Badger hockey or even women's hockey related -- but we had a chance to check out the US National Sled Hockey Team in an exhibition game last night (USA vs. USA).
                    This was my first live exposure to the sport and as a hockey fan I found it amazing!
                    These are some really gifted athletes and the game is very fast paced and physical.
                    They won gold in 2014 and will be competing in 2018 at the Parlympics.

                    If you get a chance, they are having another exhibition today at 3 pm at the Madison Ice Arena.
                    (I know -- almost same time as the women's game.)
                    But, it is only a 20 minute drive from LaBahn to the Ice Arena -- so if women's game ends at 4 pm, you can get their by 4:30 pm.
                    The game last night lasted 2 hours and I anticipate today's game would be the same.
                    So, that gets you 30 minutes of hockey viewing. You won't be disappointed.

                    Admission is free -- although there are raffle tickets if you are interested (including for tickets for 4 to the women's NCAA this season).

                    Plenty of seating, but bring an extra blanket or two -- smaller arena so it is colder and the bleachers are aluminum so you'll want to be sitting on something.

                    Here is the website with more info:

                      Am I the only one disappointed with a 7-0 win over OSU? I found myself feeling bad for Suave. We beat S Korea with the same score... I was really looking for a challenge. Hopefully tomorrow is more competitive...

                        No I'm not disappointed with a 7-0 win. It tells me this team is further along in development than I thought. It tells me UW played a fantastic game, almost flawless. Suave needs to play better. Clearly UW was shooting high on her on purpose and these gals can snipe. Enjoy the ride.

                            I felt bad for their fans, who were there in a large amount. The girls really let them down.

                              Not a typical game for their goaltender but she had little or no support. Buckeyes were disappointing.
