Hopefully the recruits they have been touting for the past few years are the real deal when they finally get here.

They are not going down hill and talent is already in place to succeed. This season isn't even half way over, the team is still in great position for a top 4 finish and host a first round conference quarter finals

I'm sure everyone here would rather see this team playing its best hockey come tournament time vs in the first third of a hockey season. I'll take some loses now for some lessons learned later on.

I said this before, this years team is very talented. They are very balenced, can and will compete with all the teams in the NCHC. Goal tending is good enough to give this team a chance to win each night. They have speed and some good skill, with a mixture of size and grit. While they are young, they also have some very good upper classmen who will help lead this team in the second half of the season.

It was an excellent decision on WMU part to extend Murry's contract

This board is like the movie Groundhog's Day! The same thing was said last year and the year before. I realize I am saying the same things too, but history is proving me right. 2 wins against an awful team, after losing 8 straight is not a turn around. It's what should have happened! The 2nd half does not get easier. I hope I have to eat crow, but unless Santa brings this team a new coach, I am pretty sure we are a 6-7th place team.

I bet you a sixer of the winners choosing we finish better than 6th place.

Will a sixer make you happy with a 6th place finish?

Certainly not, I'll be enjoying it and our better than 6th place finish.
