All Things Denver XXXII

Re: All Things Denver XXXII

I just noticed that Gavin Morgan is an assistant coach at Huntsville. Interesting.

He's been there for at least two seasons now. My favorite Gavin Morgan moment was when he baited former cc player Aaron Karpan, thinking Gavin wanted to fight him, into getting a major for fighting without an accompanying major on Gavin. Karpan threw his gloves 10 feet in the air, got ready to fight, however Gavin skated away chuckling while Karpan looked around confused...then was led to the door. If you drop your gloves with the intention of fighting, even if no punches are thrown, it's the same as if you brawled someone.

I would like to have seen that.

We will let the team know you approve and win one for Euro.

I'm sure the Finn would love the battlecry "Win one for Euro!"

Why'd he get the start over Brittain?

Goal Highlights from Friday night.

Jussi played well against the sioux last Saturday and seemingly earned the start, but only Gwoz knows who will start Saturday.

Denver stays at #13 in PWR as UNO drops out of the TUC. Good win by BSU last night to stay a TUC.

Re: All Things Denver XXXII

Knowlton did not play in the 3rd last night. Missed the post game. Any comment from Gwoz?
Will the Mermis be unleashed tonight?

Re: All Things Denver XXXII

It seems now like there may be a decent chance that we play Wisconsin next week. It is plenty conceivable that Bemidji completes the sweep of Anchorage tonight, and I have to think that Minnesota has enough pride not to lay down and get swept by Wisconsin. Very curious to see how tonight's games come out.

Re: All Things Denver XXXII

Michigan Tech fans have not said many nice things about DU this season and that is putting it mildly. However after last night's game against the tiggies, this from tech fan, bigblue_dl;

They're CC fans, they never had credibility. How can anyone have respect for DU's pathetic lap dog?

Don't you love it?!

He's just playing better. Lame answer, but that's what it is.

Nice win last night. Certainly not perfect--a couple of defensive lapses which should have led to a goal or two by UNO. But otherwise, a solid, solid 60 minute performance, and Jussi was excellent in the net. Good game by Mayfield, and Paul Phillips is quietly racking up some solid games.

Zucker and D. Shore played well. I'd really like to see them elevate their games and carry the team to a sweep tonight.

My fears about the PWR came true a bit (falling with a win), but I hope that things "come out in the wash" if we win tonight.

I predict a better effort by UNO tonight, and 2-2 tie.

Someone mentioned the game is on America One? I have no idea what that is. Cable channel?

Re: All Things Denver XXXII

Jussi has maybe been the best emergency pick up in the history of DU hockey. Seriously. And I'm thinking we've been expecting too much from Sammy. Surgery. Rehab. Adhesions (maybe). Timing. Conditioning. Flexibility. These are all matters which potentially could be affecting his play. He's been playing well. Just not the door slammer we remember from last year. I deranged a MCL (no surgery) and it took me months to get back into "lounging on the couch watching the NFL" shape. I'm guessing an elite player, for whom timing is absolutely imperative, may take a while to get back into his best shape.

That's a good enough answer for me, I just assumed that Brittain got the start every Friday.

Re: All Things Denver XXXII

The Mermis is Unleashed for tonight's game.

Think you can get America One on UNO's website for around $8.00 Single event available 10-15 min. before game time.
