  • Re: Wisconsin Hockey, Vol II: Rebuild, Refresh, and Renew!

    That OT goal is why I'm glad I don't have to make goalie interference decisions. That kind of goal is also why a big theme in the NHL last year was mass confusion around goalie interference. Frey did actively stick his blocker arm out, Ustaski's butt hit Frey's head, Ustaski didn't assertively initiate contact, but he also didn't do much to avoid Frey (it doesn't look like he was pushed despite slight contact with the OSU d-man), it was out of the crease so Frey's privileges are different, goalies aren't fair game outside of the crease anyway....yeah, that's tough to judge, especially since I don't know the exact written rule.

    Regardless, that was a tight (and weirdly low-scoring) series, and the Badgers come away with a statement sweep!

      It's significant; at least 10 seconds faster on the radio.

      Here's what I do: I have a Bose Home Theatre that can stream and I have DirecTV. I'm sure most of you have some kind of device that streams. First I stream WIBA and it sounds great on the theatre; the stream is always behind everything on video. I have an HD-DVR with DirecTV. Now since the video is ahead of the streaming audio, I simply pause the DirecTV video until it matches up with Posick....BOOYAH! Occasionally you have to make a slight adjustment. It sounds difficult, but it is not at all.

          Great win for Wisconsin tonight. Great effort, and to see the increase in confidence is amazing!

          Also...saw Barry address the team a bit after the game...nice job Barry! I'll have to change my sig tomorrow, too many thinners in to think about how to edit/revise/create a new sig line
          Everything in its right place, Wisconsin Hockey National Champs!

            That number has to improve somewhat after giving up only three goals in two games this weekend.

              Yep, looks like the most optimistic of pre-season predictions - us being a bubble team- are coming to fruition. So root for Northern Michigan - we picked the wrong year to play them 4 times, though they've been picking it up recently. Every little bit helps. Tough to predict with all of the ins and outs; but, of the 4 Hockey East teams ahead of us, we need 1 (or 2) to go on a winning run and the other 2 to tank - probably best if BC gets hot since we played them, and Vermont tanks since we're losing all comps to them.

                Through 8 games the badgers have given up the least amount of goals in big ten play. One less than Penn St. Tied for most goals scored.

                  I watch on tablet, streaming BTN2Go, and then use iheart radio. Then, like you I pause the TV broadcast which is delayed more, until they line up. It works sweet. Brian Posick is the best.

                    Tied for 43rd, so moved up 6 spots.

                      I do the same thing down here as well. Best way to listen to the games.

                          The trend is fantastic. Both goalies are on top of their game right now. It was awesome to bee Matt get the win after those kinda flukey goals. Now they need to take care of business with MSU.

                              Good call. I preferred Berry from the start, but the new staff has proven that's why I'm not a coach. The 'tenders are pushing each other and that makes them better! The D didn't even look too bad, but they seemed to run out of gas in the 3rd of game #2. Overall, this is looking so good. I was hoping this would happen this year, but who really knew?

                              I'm seeing posters on other boards who aren't really hockey fans wondering how they became so good all of a sudden, so the "not so much hockey fans" are talking!

                              Bandwagoners welcome, but you gotta sit in the back, *****es!

                                Really think that this weekend will say a lot about this team's growth. We are playing an inferior team and should get some results - but on the road things will be more difficult. Can they keep the same focus and not get complacent? These guys haven't been in this situation before - and least not the last few years.

                                Regardless - what a situation this team finds itself in at this point. Very exciting! When the Non-Hockey Badger Fans at work start talking UW Hockey, I know things are turning around.
