    I agree with this. UMD looked like the better team for the last 2 periods. Funny that 2 of their 3 goals were sorta fluky.

    The 2nd was really frustrating as the Badgers seemed content to take control of the puck in their own zone only to dump into UMD's and give it up. Rinse and repeat.

    Although on the small side once again, I thought the crowd was pretty good overall. UMD seemed to travel pretty well also. I think I saw SCSUEuro and entourage in my section - either that or there was another Jan fan present.

    Not a big fan of the "make noise" graphics they decided to run this year - actually I think it's kind of embarrassing the even need something like that.

      Re: tUMD @ UW-M - Don't worry Badger fans, Crandall won't be playing...

      I agree with most of the comments regarding the game on here. I did think that it was an exciting game to watch (although I have not been able to watch a game in a while, so I might have just been excited to watch college hockey again). Both goaltenders made some great saves and caughed up a few juicy rebounds to make it exciting. With the chances that were there, it easily could have been a ten goal game collectively.

      Besides a few hits, I thought the game was pretty clean in comparison to the amount of penalties called. It did look from TV that UMD had a pretty good representation in the crowd. I always have more respect for a team's fans if they travel well, assuming that there are not many resident fans in Madison.

      I know it has been touched on before but any idea how to "coach" a team to be better in overtime? Based on our history, I was more than happy to walk away with a tie since we manage to find every conceivable way to lose in overtime. I think given individual seasons, team composition can account for good or bad overtime performance but Eaves has an extensive history of not being able to get it done in overtime (minus the 3OT win in GB '06 of course!).

        That was us and Euro! We were having to much fun for our own good. good thing we will be with the crease creatures tonight!


        At least the make noise graphics had funny looking people. I had a chuckle at that.

        UMD trapped the trap and it seemed to work well. Hopefully UMD can pull out a win tonight!

          Biddy... those "funny looking people" are Wisconsinites. Don't be rude.

            I was wondering if that was you. Dude, lose the weird arch-back thing - you looked ********. I enjoyed watching you guys bantering with the student section. Even got your very own a**hole cheer!

                Overall, I was pretty happy with it. With some crisper passing, they might have gotten through the UMD trap a little better, but overall they played very well against a very good team. I feel like they were a little stronger with the puck than they had been when they played Minnesota, and it showed with some of the chances they had coming out of the corners.

                That and some of the canned music they've started to play here and there really is embarrassing. I get that the crowds are down this year, and the student section isn't going to be as engaged during finals week as they normally would, but we've still got (maybe) 10,000+ fans, Phil and a fantastic pep band. Those kind of cheap tricks shouldn't be necessary to keep the Kohl Center. Perhaps the sad truth is that, even though they weren't necessary four or five years ago, they might be now. Depressing.

                At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

                Canned music is a pathetic waste of your time.
