  • Re: Michigan Tech 2014-2015

    Good article by Daver Karnosky, who also appears to have become the hockey beat writer for the Mining Gazette.

    Despite first losses, Michigan Tech gives Houghton plenty to be excited about

      Dare I post another article? Thanks for the conversations last week. I truly believe your Huskies will make some serious noise this year. Awesome for the sport. http://q30television.com/2014/11/25/...y-poll-112414/

        It used to be you could fly from Detroit to Iron Mountain and drive 2 hours, and get there in plenty of time for dinner before the game.
        now to do that you have to fly to minny first, leaving on the 830 AM flight, So it delays you by two hours. OR, you can fly to marquette, but of course not get to Houghton until 20 minutes after the game starts. OR you can come up on thursday and pay 120 a night plus tax for a hotel.
        The whole thing is just a pain in the you know what. I might give away my tickets, we'll see. Might come up for BGSU instead.

        btw hotel rooms are getting hard to get.
        120 for a hotel? Don't book at the Franklin. Book at the Travelodge. $60~ per night. Get there. Look us (the MN group) up. Trust me.

I have to be in Birmingham to see my son's PhD defense on Tuesday, and I cannot get stuck in the UP for any reason,and.....
          The hotels are booked b/c of us. Half-kidding. We have about 20 coming up for a random trip. Since MN isn't coming to Houghton anytime soon, we decided to just make a trip.

            Franklin is booked because of the UMD fan bus that is making the trip.

              It might be old but chris Heisenberg is pointing out that major junior is being sued about the player contracts they use, and may very well have to pony up at least minimum wage to it's players. Making them professionals for sure. The article is available on his twitter feed and:

                Too close, but a good 2 points

                Mel's postgame interview:
                solid defensively, over team defense was our best part of our game
                the 1st goal put us on our heels, but we hung in there and limited their Grade A chances
                didn't get great chances on PP, they do a good job, we were too deliberate
                Eick/Steman/gillies line was outstanding, they were skating, working hard, speed/aggressiveness, they got rewarded
                pucks bouncing all over the place, not sure why, but we have to respect that more tomorrow
                The penalties were reflective of the game, good reffing, we used our speed, they had to commit penalties, we need more speed tomorrow
                Big 2 points, anywhere on the road is tough
                We've been in so many tight games, we have confidence and poise
                We'll put fresh guys in, we'll watch film
                We want to score some more, didn't score on our best chances, but liked the way our team played

                  Yep, Tech being in a lot of games like that is what kept them clean and focused. One or two bad penalties might have let us back in this one.

                    United is fine, just O'Hare is notorious for delayed connections.

                      It will be interesting to see who suits up tonight.
                      Do the seniors get a rest or is the Neville line given a break.
                      I would like to see Blacklock, Vallis, and freshman E. Anderson get a shot.
                      The Steman line and the D won last night's game.

                      Anyone heard whether these guys are on the trip.
                      I also think Wintjes gets the start tonight.

                        I'd be surprised if Wintjes gets it, though I think he's a good goalie. The coach did say there would be some changes. Should be interesting.

                        I was thinking about a previous post and I totally agree, the best coach in college hockey. He actually develops players.

                          Based on last night, Jamie might need a chance to relax and catch a break. It also might spark the team for a really good performance.
                          I think the changes tonight will be for a reason of fatigue, not poor play.

                            we shall see but remember they're off next weekend so Mel might right Jamie a little longer.

                                Heh. Good to meet you tonight. Y'all did everything that you had to do in order to get the sweep. Too much speed, too much depth, and too much skill. Best of luck the rest of the year save the games at the end of January.
