    I get that injuries aren't really anybody's fault, for the most part. I am too lazy to go back and analyze how many of the injuries fall into the "freak hockey accident" category, which might be related to something that could be changed, and non-hockey injuries. But really, this is the third year in a row that we are pulling out the "half the team is injured and so we are in the tank" card.

    Are we recruiting players made of glass? Is everybody we recruit seemingly a relative of Matthew Stafford, and can't stay healthy for more than 3 games? It seems that Tech is a statistical anomaly with injuries.

    I still want to blame it on the Curse of the CCHA, and that we are being punished for leaving our conference in the early 80's and then coming back. Things have not been the same since.

    As far as injuries go, I see it this way: Once is an aberration, twice is a trend, and thrice is a culture.
    So far.....**knocks on wood** our freshman are healthy....it's just our upperclassmen...so maybe they're made of titanium when they get here, and then once they get through freshman year, Bangen turns them to glass....

        Well the injuries do assure one thing. we will be lot better in february than we are right now. Our next WCHA series is in 4 weeks. By then we should have Olson, Royer and maybe Doriott back.

        I think tonight will be a tough game. guys walking wounded. uno physical, ice surface terrible, etc. I think it will be closer than last night because I think the guys are fixing their issues.

              I chuckle everytime someone links to one of GLM's articles.

                  Interesting article.

                  Certainly the shots have to be kept under control better. What we don't do is, once the trap shuts them off or get's them to the edge, we don't do a very good job of converting that to an offensive opportunity. So because of that the other team is more offensive still. If we could score off some turnovers, or move the puck out from near our blue line better, we'd force them to stay back a little more.

                      Hey fake soldier boy, you better still be planning on coming over tomorrow after your other commitments are over.

                      Biddco, I figure you'll check this sometime tonight or tomorrow. If you're in the cities, you can come over too. If you want, I might be convinced to let your girlfriend in the house.

                          Not a problem with that. You'll deserve one after a tough day.

                            Just forfeit every game until we get Olson back.

                                I am torn. The coaching staff is happy with the effort, and I am not going to complain about it. Just stupid mistakes and not creating things in the offensive zone.

                                If a good effort produces another loss, how do we feel about the rest of the season? I am going to try to (force myself to) stay optimistic and say that we will turn this thing around as soon as the new year hits!
