Loved the watchalong tonight.
I'm not sure what this means, but when you guys shut it down, YouTube then auto-played the movie Space Jam. So, you've got that going for you in the algorithm.

Excellent win. Just catching up with tape delay viewing after a family event. Nerve racking to watch the last 3 min.
Back-to-back. Go Blue.

St. Cloud St kills off a couple penalties, including 5 v 3, and various extra attacker times to win 3-0.
CC had a good run, beat Denver, then lose. Good job. We move up to 3rd, Denver drops to 4th.

St. Cloud St moved up to 6th, Harvard dropped to 7th. MN St moved up 2 to 11th, WMU dropped to 12th, Cornell to 13th. Merrimack stays 14th.
With Colgate stealing a bid, that puts Alaska out.
The Governor of AK (Dumleavy) cut education funding across the board when he was elected 4 years ago, and that includes primary thru University. So the President of UA and regents decided to completely cut sports funding to the 2 hockey programs in order to fund academic programs. Now the hockey teams function year to year with the support of fans & alumni. I was stoked to see my Nanooks play in the NCAA's, but just having a season is a success. Hope they can get a few more years down the road with this coach & join a league for the obvious advantage of having conference tourney games.

Was in attendance with my family. My 8 and 5 year old loved it!

Extremely amused by the Gophers whining about the net to the right flying off its moorings all the time for the second straight year. It's your own damn rink. Fix it.

I'm happy for the team but I'm even happier for you. The BTN+ bull (especially for hockey) sucks but it's awesome having someone to update us. Mich hockey hasn't been shabby in the least over the past couple of seasons, but they haven't fulfilled their full potential.
My dad is a huge fan of Mich's football team and seeing him ecstatic over the last 2 wins over Ohio State takes the cake as a Mich fan. I've only attended one Mich Hockey game but it was in the first row, and it was one (if not the) best sports events I've ever been able to attend.
I want Mich hockey as national champions this year for the team and myself, but I want it even more for you.
