Re: Wisconsin Badgers 2016-2017
Well, a road to the championship game w/o playing another WCHA team before getting there. I like it. A lot. BC has been living on borrowed time the last 3 weeks, I don't know if they'll even get past St. L, but I've been wanting UW to play them the last few years, maybe UW will get a chance. I'll do some digging around about Bob Morris as the week progresses, but I'm very thankful for the chance to watch a game @ Labahn one more time.
Few thoughts on the games we just saw.....That UND goal Saturday was some bad D by UW, there were enough players back to be able to rub Menke (sp?) out. I did not see other than on my phone, so I don't know how it got past ARD. Kolstadt solidified her place in the goon hall of fame for the DQ punch she threw late in the 3rd that screwed her team over, haha. She already hurt someone this year, don't we have 3 more years of her to look forward to? Yikes.
UMD game....missed the first period, was on the road, but the gals played hard and kept the pressure on. In the next few games, goal scoring may be at a premium, and it good to see them be in 2 tight games and then be able to crack the nut for the win, though allowing inferior teams to hang around is worrisome, but on the other hand UW has the depth to wear teams down and close the deal in the 3rd. The pp needs to get back to working a bit better. Not scoring on a 5 minute with that kind of talent is bad.
