Re: Ohio State Buckeyes 2017-2018 ... Home Playoffs This Season?
Setting an all-time record for 3 Stars Tardiness, I just posted some "Starlit Reflections" of the OSU/UMD series -- played a week ago. See the WCHA thread.
Back to the Present: The USCHO Scoreboard reports that the Buckeyes have completed a 4-0 Road Victory over St. Cloud in today's series opener.

Re: Ohio State Buckeyes 2017-2018 ... Home Playoffs This Season?
Pgb, you must be really busy these days, but when it comes to your 3 Stars of the Game, I say better late than never. Aside from going to the games and supporting the girls, getting home and reading your 3 Stars is one of the highlights of a home weekend for OSU Women's Hockey!
As Pgb alluded to, the Buckeyes kept their win streak going with a 4-0 victory on the road at St. Cloud State. Four different players scored for the Buckeyes ... all forwards ... Emma Maltais, Maddy Field, Rebecca Freiburger, and Lauren Spring. The Buckeyes outshot the Huskies in this one 48-26. Buckeye backstop Kassidy Sauve stopped all 26 shots she faced and St. Cloud's Janine Alder earned 44 saves for the Huskies. The two teams are back at it tomorrow at 3:37 pm EST.

Be assured that life is good; or at least mostly good. Fall is always busy. But there are currently some additional demands on my time that are unique to this year. I rather liked Blackbeard's theory that we were laying low and playing mind games with the rest of league. But the truth is much more mundane.
With the OSU/UMD installment, it just got so darn late that I decided to launch this weekend with the post.

The Buckeyes completed the sweep today by an identical score of 4-0 (also won Friday's game 4-0). The shots on goal were closer today with Ohio State outshooting the Huskies 31-26. Buckeye netminder Kassidy Sauve stopped all 26 shots she faced. Her counterpart, St. Cloud's Emma Polusny, saved 27 of the 31 shots she faced for the Huskies. The Ohio State goals were scored by Emma Maltais, Maddy Field, and Julianna Iafallo (2). The 7-0-1 Buckeyes are off to the best start in program history. The Bucks have a bye next weekend, then will travel to Madison for a big matchup with the #1 Badgers on 11/4-11/5. The Huskies will travel to Minnesota State to take on the Mavericks next weekend.Last edited by osualum86; 10-22-2017, 09:15 PM.

Hope you're having a good trip, despite the Saturday disappointment.
Sounds like we weren't quite ready for the big stage in Game 1. Fortunately we have three more regular season games scheduled against the Badgers, including the one coming up in a few hours.
Have fun this afternoon; Go Bucks!

Originally posted by osualum86 View PostGrace did play today so she is not hurt or anything. As for today's game, the most common phrase after the game, by both teams' fans for that matter, was "I didn't expect that." Wisconsin got off to a fast start today and never looked back in beating the Buckeyes 7-0. The Badgers scored three first-period goals to jump out to a 3-0 lead. The second period was a 0-0 stalemate, then Wisconsin tacked on four more goals in the third period to win it 7-0. With two undefeated and top-five ranked teams playing, most expected a much tighter game. That was not the case today as Wisconsin put up a touchdown and used a suffocating defense to keep the Buckeyes off the scoreboard all game. The shots on goal were lopsided with the Badgers outshooting the Buckeyes 42-14. Wisconsin's Kristen Campbell stopped all 14 shots she faced. Kassidy Sauve saved 35 of the 42 shots she faced. The Badger goals were scored by Presley Norby, Sam Cogan, Maddie Rowe, Alexis Mauermann (2), Abby Roque, and Baylee Wellhausen. The two teams are back at it tomorrow at 12:00 pm CST.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

It is a process, team is being lead by Freshmen with solid contributions from upper classmen. This weekend was a learning experience as Ohio State as never has this team been ranked this high and first time they have ever played for Division lead. They rebounded nicely today and will be better the next time. I am sure Coach Nadine is very pleased with the progress this team has made in just over a year. I really believe this team will have one of the best seasons ever and no one should be discouraged by the results from this past weekend. Go Bucks Go !

Originally posted by Timothy A View PostGreat to chat with you before the game Saturday. We all were hoping for a top flight highly competitive series. I know you had high hopes and it was sad to see the team play so badly Saturday. It sure seemed like UW was taking advantage of Sauve going down and they were shooting for the roof. Today's game it seemed like she was staying up a lot more. Has she been exposed this way in the past? Today's game was a much better performance by OSU, though they allowed more shots today, they were playing with a lot more speed and tenacity. I think OSU is still a few more great recruiting classes away from being able to more evenly compete with UW, but they seem to be on the right track with this freshmen class performing really well. Hope you had a safe and fun trip, God willing we'll shake hands next year again.Last edited by osualum86; 11-06-2017, 05:57 PM.

As for yesterday's game, once again, the Bucks had trouble getting their offense going as they were outshot 50-22. Buckeye goaltender Kassidy Sauve stopped 47 of the 50 shots she faced. Wisconsin's Kristen Campbell stopped 21 of the 22 shots she faced. The Badger goals came from Mikaela Gardner, Alexis Mauermann, and Claudia Kepler. Tatum Skaggs scored the Ohio State goal. Ohio State will host Minnesota State next weekend. Wisconsin will travel to Ithaca, NY, to face Cornell in a big non-league top-ten showdown.Last edited by osualum86; 11-06-2017, 06:00 PM.
