Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2016-2017
Someday I'll watch the dvr'ed game to see how it played out from the overhead perspective. We sat behind the UW goal near the band, so I'm lacking perspective of how UW played in the O zone the 1st and 3rd period.
It's a shame the 2nd and 3rd lines kinda melted away the last part of the season. Norby went stone cold and Roque didn't generate chances like she did early in the season.
Our UW clothing sure got us a lot of comments about the men's bb team at stores and restaurants in IL and MO.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2016-2017
It was a kid from Clarkson dressed literally head to toe in a green nylon - think faceless superhero costume, without the underwear on the outside. I think (hope) he was packing a sock.
Other than the trying to avoid looking in some not-so-strategic areas aspect, he was pretty fun. I was a little disappointed that the arena staff made him take down his hood/mask around the start of the 3rd.

I thought they second and 3rd lines controlled most of the play when they were out there. I mentioned a month ago on the blog that when they moved Nurse to the first line that that line had to produce. While the young kids do need to step it up, I find it an odd conclusion that you look to the 2nd and 3rd lines. The first line had zero goals, and one assist the entire weekend. They went 0-6 on the power play and took 2 penalties compared to the 2nd and 3rd lines zero. The first line plays more, is on first team power play, first team penalty kill and with 9 tv timeouts usually go back out on to the ice for back to back shifts even it they were just out. I believe that group of girls had plenty of opportunity to contribute to the scoresheet. I highly doubt it if Potomak, Brandt and Kessel went scoreless in the final four that gopher fans would be blaming the second and 3rd lines. In fact, last year in the Final Four Minnesota had 6 goals in 2 games, their first line had 5 of them and a D scored the other. The first line has been to 4 final fours and won one Final Four game in 4 years. Perhaps the young ghosts can surpass that, after all they only need one more win in the final four the next 3 years to do so.Last edited by upfromtheminors; 03-21-2017, 12:36 PM.

Controlling play = 0 goals. Without the 2nd and 3rd lines scoring this last weekend or in the games @ UM, UW is just another very good team and not a great team.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!
