Michigan Hockey

Off to a really nice start this season after the disappointment of last season. Thoroughly outplayed and outshot Boston U last night though it took a penalty shot to win 2-1.

Watched Minn vs Boston College on BTN last night.  Those are some good teams.

I watched the highlights, and you're right.

Makes me feel even better about the fact that Michigan beat BC.

fish, we lost a tough one Sat night, but the team continues to play well. Our inexperienced second string goalie has stepped into the breach nicely.

IMHO Nagelvoort isn't going back to Second-string. I'm not the best at goalie evaluation but I've never been sold on him. He's adequate but not outstanding, yet... Nagelvoort is better than Raccine though.

I bumped into Brian Wiseman this past summer and he was glowing with the news that they had just received Nagelvoort's commit letter, I guess he is good. His performance against BU was very good.

Also of note was that I met Taylor Lewan while walking out of Yost at the BU game. Uh, that guy is huge. Ask booboo, I'm a pretty large guy myself but next to Taylor I felt about 5'7" and 135lbs. I actually told Taylor that I was the only person who knew that he'd come back for his Senior year (yes 'eggo I did tell him about you "hoping"/"thinking" that he'd come back). He was absolutely dumb-founded by me saying that, so much that he talked a couple minutes about it on the concourse inside Yost with people bugging him for pictures.

I do regret not thinking to ask him about the "twosie". If I ever run into him again I'll make sure to ask him but I honestly don't think that I will. 'hail knows how isolated those guys are from the public during the season and Michigan doesn't have any more bye-weeks (I'm not going to stalk him at Bell's on Saturday night just to ask about the "twosie").
