U-M Hockey vs OSU BTT Semi - Saturday Open Thread
So it's come down to this: a chance for redemption against OSU, against whom we were 1-2-1 (SOL). It seems like a tall task to avoid many turnovers against their forecheck, while trying to F-I-S-T, but hope springs eternal. Survive and advance. Let the plinko begin!
Time: 6:30 PM ET
Watch: BTN actual

Let's Go Blue! Beat the Buckeyes! And no majors/GMs/DQs for us, plz!
We want MOAR goals!!
The Buckeye goalie had a 55 hole there
A quick start, two goals, AND a video review in our favor?!?! Is this the real life?
Unrelenting pressure.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!
Samoskevich!!! 3-0 U-M!!!
GGOOOOOOAAAALLLL!
Feels like Red Wings vs Aves with Patrick Roy
ANOTHER ONE
Just like football!
and basketball
OSU challenge for goalie interference, probably.
Woohoo!
Good goal, IMO.
Challenge unsuccessful
That puck had eyes!
YES! Good goal!
Ohio State ... is unsuccessful. Nuff said.
We want MOAR goals!!!
The start remains acceptable.
FUCK YOU ohio st and your challenge!!!!

I'll be happy with 7 more.
OSU is unsuccessful! Not surprisingly
This is a bloodbath so far.

Are you me?
Jealous of everyone at Yost - that place is rocking
Hey, holding the stick?!
Certainly looked like it
Clear as day and no call
Finally got it cleared!
Scary shift but got away with it.
I was busy and did not get a chance to check. Does anybody have an idea of what the price for tickets was on Stubhub for this game? A range or ballpark would be fine, I'm just curious

Decent tickets settled in right around $140-160
Just tuned it - looking good with 3 - 0 lead in the first. Keep up with the energy!
I told a friend of mine before the game that I’d like 7 goals “just to be safe.” Definitely on pace there.
Definitely! Put our bladed foot to their throats.
Just call me Nostra-fuckin-Damus. 😎
3-0 U-M after one.
Shots: U-M 14, OSU 11
Other other games: CO Coll scored in the 2nd, leads WMU 2-1 mid 2nd.
NMU 3, MTU 0, early mid 2nd.
Follow the lead of the hockey team and plant your Michigan flag in Buckeye country during the first intermission. Head over to CFB Risk and attack any of the OSU (gray) territories. If you want a specific attack/defend order aligned with Michigan’s current battle plan go to Michigan Risk Central Command.

Beat Ohio!
Just like football, just like basketball, and just like Risk. I love owning this rivalry.
We need to stay aggressive without being irresponsible, if that’s a thing and even possible.
McGrorty said “they haven’t seen us at our best” and he wasn’t kidding. You know who else hasn’t seen them at their best against OSU? The rest of us.
1) finish the game strong
2) bring this forechecking intensity to Minnesota.
2nd period under way. Let's Go Blue!
Let's not whiff on checks at the blue line, please
A Portilo glove save! We're a little passive to start here. OSU definitely turned it on the last 6 or 7 minutes of game time.
Good rebound control by Portillo. Good to see!
