As we Durham-ites Fire up the tractors and hitch our wagons to horses for the trip west (12 hours and 42 minutes i*** ya have one of those internal combustion vehicles), it dawned on me that there is not a ton of recent history between these two programs. Aside from the split last year in Durham, you have to go all the way back to the NCAA Regionals in 2006 for our last game, where one Jeff Lerg shut the 'Cats out 1-0, saving 36 shots. Aside from this, a 2004-2005 RS win for MSU was the only other matchup I see this millennium.
(Disclaimer: my only trip to East Lansing came for the October 2001 Cold War, an awesome - and FREEZING event).
UNH comes in at 3-2-1 on the season, with two recent solid wins, both with Clark in net. Averaging 4.5 goals/game, with blue line play improving, we have a bit of momentum. MSU went through a tough stretch vs. a strong Denver squad, but rebounded in its last game vs. Lake Sup.
So, what say ye, Michiganders? what kind of team should we expect to see in Munn this weekend? Predictions?
Any UNH'ers making the trip?
Have at it, people....
(For those not going FSD has the Saturday game)
