Let's Go Blue! Beat StAEE!
Dang, OMR broken up.
God PK; guys doing really good work in neutral zone and as State comes into the zone.
Our special teams have been coming up big the last few weeks, gotta continue it tonight.
Boys have lotsa jump tonight and really look loose.
State's more talented than they used to be, not sure they actually want to skate with us though.

Let’s give sparty another loss today. Go Blue!
state can't get it through the neutral zone or into UM's defensive zone.
love it.
Gangrene trying to enter zone from the middle, and our D is ready
Augustine giving up huuuuuuuuge rebounds tonight.
They really hate Schifsky for some reason.
Great defense by Warren!
Really keeping Sparty from bringing it into the zone in any kind of order at all. Guys are back, engaging right at the line, good sticks. Keep that up.
Red in the house!
Anyone have a link for those of us that are traveling with no BTN?
Santa, Red are there but apparently Warde is too busy.
Fuck that guy.
Wow, this post may be the definition of, "That didn't age well."
Either that, or I should ignore the last line and take your first one literally. Then you're spot on!
FUCK! They score, 1-1.
Damn. Barzo has GOT to stop shit like that.
they just changed shots to 8-0.
we are carrying the play, but would love to have another goal or two show for i t.
damn. they score.
Dont play with yer food behind Barzo boys, gifted them there
Fantilli with the turnover deep against the run of play. Too cute below the goal line.
Sitting in a bar full of Spartys.
Airpods, engage….
Damn they score.
Well, fuck. Lost a battle we weren't losing last week.
Tripping 100% legal tonight.
Announcers calling for the ref BJ to go a little deeper...
Definitely generating chances.
Casey with 3 deeks but no cheese
Casey pretending he's out on the pond! Love those hands.
We are so much better than FYS. NCAA tourney is going to be fun!
Savage with a real POS effort to get someting going. If refs don't call that, it will escalate. Good M discipline
Warren's everywhere and Augustine is fighting the puck.
D'OH! Warren to the box for Holding @ 13:37
Kelly should go too for that BS after the whistle hit.
That looked a little bit divey to me.
Greg Louganis agrees.
Seen a lot less than that called for embellishment.
Maybe it's just me but happy Sparties always look like they're a moment away from staging an amateur production of Lord of the Flies.
if they are doing to call that crud as holding, then they need to ring sparty up for about 500 cross checks. total manure.
This Sparty team has been working with their Diving coach
WHOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA C YA!
Hooking on them @ 15:26.
POS Savage finally gets his. Nearly killed the PK -- good work boys -- and we get nearly 2 of PP
Savage hooked because he forgot how to skate and stumbled.
Yay PK/ Yay penalty on spartie!
Another good PK, or at least getting us to even strength.
1:49 of PP for us.
Keeping it in the zone and generating chances!
More shots from the point
No joy.
Good movement, not great chances there on PP. Back on PP for too many men!!!
