  • 11/04-11/05 Michigan Tech vs. Minn State - A Civil Chat Among Future WCCHA Teams

    (Getting an early start with Minn State just to put Denver in the rearview mirror as fast as possible... that was a brutal week on the boards.)

    Tech comes off three points against Denver and thankfully won't have them back in Houghton again for a loooong time.
    Mankato heads to the UP looking for their first WCHA points against the Huskies who currently stand 2nd in the WCHA and remain undefeated at home (5-0-1).

    Gentlemen, you know the rules.
    I want a good clean discussion.
    Don't Denver someone below the belt.
    In the event of a knockdown go to a neutral corner.
    At the sound of the bell touch gloves and come out fighting.
    Let's get it on!

    Mostly adding thread marker, but yeah...

    Wait, so you mean I won't have to read through a bunch of crappy drama related posts just to get some quick hockey information?!

    GENUIS!

      Like Bemidji, it's hard for me to work up any ire for UMSUAMU (or whatever... the purple team) since we're like-minded institutions and all and we've been splitting rent on the WCHA's basement many years.

      Huskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. Grooming is minimal; bathing is normally unnecessary.

          I hate Civil engineers so I'm pretty sure I'm won't be to happy with a civil chat.
          Just so we never forget.

            This should be an interesting week for looking at the make up of the new WCHA/CCHA with three match-ups of future conference teams. MTU/MSUM, BSU/LSSU, BGSU/FSU.

                Quite possible.

                  I'm going to say Tech comes through with a letdown and only splits.

                    You have to figure the Purple Cows will be coming in with eyes wide open knowing it could be very tough. No surprise. Saw their new and old rink this summer. Does the women's team still practice and or play at the old rink?

                        The WiCCA conference. That's what I'm calling it.

                          Both the men and women practice there, the women also play their games there.

                            I take it they play games on the regulation side not the Olympic side.

                              Mankato is going to have a tough year. They have a lot of injuries and they don't have a lot of offensive firepower. 3 of their 4 top scorers are freshman and they have almost 100 less shots on goal than Tech. The only tough opponent they've faced this season has been Denver. Lee's got a decent save %, but I just can't see them beating Tech in Houghton. I predict a Tech sweep in which Lee gets a workout but prevents a blowout.....4-1, 5-2. I think Genoe will get some time in net for Tech.
