Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2017-2018
The Badgers weren't bad, exactly, but they were sloppy and loose with the puck; Campbell made up for it for a while, but it ultimately caught up to them. Bemidji played with energy, and almost pulled it out.
There was a drive by Shaver with eight or so minutes left in the third, when it "didn't matter all that much" that I thought certainly merited a review, but the refs disagreed.
Anybody know why Norby was out of the lineup?

Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2017-2018
Well, that was a shocking weekend. Not seeing either game I cannot comment much on what went wrong, though I'd say the circumstances of losing a 3 goal lead yet winning and overcoming a 1 goal deficit late to get to OT are certainly character builders. If Bemidji played like Mankato played the first 5 minutes of last Saturday I can see why UW had trouble.
Norby not making the trip also jumbled the lines a bit. Hopefully it's nothing serious.
Roque took 3 penalties in the 2nd period, yikes. She let's frustration get to her once and awhile.
Rowe got to shoot in the shootout and scored, not bad for a converted 7th D to wing.
St. Cloud took it to UMD this last weekend, UW better be ready.
I'd like to see the home/away stats splits. I'm beginning to formulate the thought that UW is not as good on the road as at home, maybe a trait of a young team and one that does not bode well during playoff time. Typically MJ teams are machines at home and on the road.
UW's box score on their website doesn't have a shots on goal by period or a shots on goal total on the main page, LAME.Last edited by Timothy A; 01-21-2018, 06:59 AM.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

.
Generally, and with notable exceptions (Schneider filling in for Norby, and Shaver), they looked sluggish and a step slow. I would not be surprised to find out it is flu season in the Badger locker room.

Not sure if that is a conditioning issue or to concerned about the O-Zone. Norby was sorely missed for that reason. She is full of energy & is extremely disruptive as is Shaver. Hopefully Norby is back this weekend from her tweaked knee from the Mankato series. Soupy had the flu but was still solid! 3 big weekends coming up...play hard or grab some bench!Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2017-2018
The women's hockey team home/away splits are amazing....both after 12 games....Home 4.50 gf - .58 ga / away 2.75 gf / 1.33 ga. I'd say that does not bode well for the wcha tourney or the ncaa's, but is indicative of a young team.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

I did the home away splits from last year to compare to this year to either prove my idea that UW is struggling on the road is right or a bunch of dodo.
Home
2017 2018
GF 4.57 4.50
GA .63 .58
Away
2017 2018
GF 3.42 2.75
GA 1.04 1.33
The home numbers are pretty much right on, the away numbers are worse in both GF & GA, though the GF stands out at .75 goals per game less. I think a more talented and experienced team can battle through the quiet road games and keep the heat on the opponent, while both types of teams benefit from the raucous LaBahn crowd to pour it on. One thing to remember is that there are still at least 10 more games to go for a full season comparo.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

Minnesota isn't very experienced up the middle. Three centers play. Piazza is a senior, with maybe two years of experience at center if you take away her games playing wing. Skarzynski is in her first season playing center, and Wente is a freshman. The team plays roughly 4 1/2 D. One senior, 1 1/2 sophomores, and two freshmen. Collectively, there are too many mistakes made, and coupled with inconsistent goaltending, too many goals allowed.
There are other issues. The team doesn't pass very well. It doesn't respond well to adversity and tends to give up goals in bunches. Added together, it hasn't shown an ability to challenge Ohio State, let alone Wisconsin.
