I watched that. Not sure how it happened. Penn State's goaltender was so far out of position so often in that game. PSU is a program on the rise, but they just looked terrible every time I watched that game.

Michigan just looked worse

It's Penn State's first conference win. Hilarious.

Love it.

with our win against UM, don't we actually want UM to win its games to help in the Pairwise formula?

We pissed away a bunch of our nonconference play (Notre Dame and NMU) so this team probably needs 18+ points in the last 8 games and a semi appearance in Minneapolis. I choose to move my schadenfreude to Michigan's Saturday in sports.

Duluth series is over and we can do nothing about it now, with tie breaker going their way and a 3-1-0 record vs the Bronocos.

North Dakota series is still up in the air, but the Sioux are up 2-0 and host the Broncos for the season ending last conference series. This series could be "huge" for both teams. I like our chances vs North Dakota, as we out played them earlier this year at home. I will be there for both games

The team that bothers me is DU. Brittain is an elite goalie and can beat you by himself. DU power play is very good and with WMU style of play, the Pioneers will get their power play chances. 5 on 5 the Broncos were the better team in game 1 at Denver, but Pioneers power play was the difference. Game two we played even better, but Brittian was on his game shutting us out.

This.

Gotta love a group that uses schadenfreude in context.

WMU is a good institution of higher education, after all.

Oh I'm well aware each time a debate starts here.

I know it's a lot but I like our chances with the remaining schedule. Will have to go really deep in the playoffs at any rate.

Winning the NCHC cures all ails. Just sayin'
