      Tech has consistently controlled the flow of games, dominated shots on goal, etc but come up short on the scoreboard during big games, and occasionally on one's we need. Tonight is a great example; missing an empty net over and over, then hitting the cross bar, post... to end up with a single tally.

      I'd hand out a bunch of glasses to the forwards.
      Go Huskies!

        When you get pressured you miss your spot, Anchorage looked very skilled breaking out and through the neutral zone this weekend. They worked and stymied Tech even though Tech dominated the territorial play. I was disappointed with the result, but something tells me this is going to the last game again before the standings are set. Were the penalties deserved, I thought the Leibinger call last night was looking to call rather than calling the game...

          And before the Anchorage fans get all upset, it's not your fault. Your team made Tech look like bullsh** all weekend.
          Anchorage didn't look like a bull**** team to me all weekend. Maybe Tech took this weekend a little too much for granted. This time of year all teams are fighting for playoff positions.
          I will say the officiating was bad....Really bad. Hockey fans up this way are pretty knowledgeable about the game and don't normally boo the refs for nothing.The refs took away from the flow of the game with their calls. That is what I call bull****.

            I heard someone even threw a tire iron during the game. That was a rough weekend for the Huskies.

              Disappointing weekend, but it is good that we have such heightened expectations!

              More the Mel Pearson show - Shuchuk was in studio, Mel called in towards the end:
              Overall feeling of frustrating, disappointed
              Some bad puck luck, missed open nets/cross-bars etc, game of inches and came up short
              Need to stay in structure of the system, trust the guys beside you

              Mel thought we didn't have energy/enthusiasm we usually had in practice, carried over a little bit into the weekend

              Steman/Baltus/L'Esperance are all out this weekend, would be a good line on many WCHA teams
              We've been injured, Roy was out Saturday night

              Sturos started wearing A Saturday with Baltus being out, he's been a total team player/leader, he's earned it

                Nice to see Reid sporting an 'A' on his jersey. I agree, he has earned it.

                What da heck is up with Steman?? He was supposed to be ready by GLI. Then he was day to day and could have played against ND, then not in line up against UAA. Now already out for this coming weekend?? His absence is really hurting this team..

                And what happened to L'Esperance?? Didn't seem injured during the games..

                  Towards the end of the game sat he took an open ice hit in the upper body area. Left the ice, never came back.

                  Well, looks like the coach is forced to make some changes in the lines and pp as L'Esperance is out. Even though he is one of the last you would willingly take out of the line up.....

                    The forward stockpile continues to grow.

                    1997-born forward Jack Becker has committed to the Huskies. He's 6' 4", 205 lbs, from Mahtomedi, Minn., and the son of former Husky Russ Becker. He had previously committed to Wisconsin and was drafted by the Boston Bruins in 2015 (7th round, 195th overall). He has 7 goals and 5 assists in 29 games for Sioux Falls (USHL), and he's −10 on a team where the range is +12 to −11.

                    I'm guessing this means Mitch Newsome gets pushed back to 2018.

                    EDIT: This could mean that all of next year's incoming forwards (I have Russell, Reitmeier, Poikola, and Becker) committed in the last six weeks.

                            I went in to the pairwise predictor, and though it's water over the dam now, if we had swept this last weekend we would be number 20 now, and right behind providence, and st cloud. It will be interesting to see how this affects us as the season unwinds.

                              Im sorry but even with a sweep of UAA, I'm not sure they get to the low teens at the end of the season, a losing NC record in a statistically weak conference is no way to get an autobid.

                                Any WCHA team would need to win out, especially over other good WCHA teams, and then have chaos out east.
