Easy weekend for the Wolverines, sweeping Nebraska-Omaha with 10-1 and 2-1 victories. I got to attend the 10-1 game. It was quite the treat and I was very fortunate in getting a hold of a ticket and it broke a streak of three straight Michigan hockey games I attended where the final was 1-0. Yost is by far the best place to watch live hockey. The arena is nostalgic, the fans are rowdy, rude and vulgar (apparently "Ugly Parents" is a new chant when the opposing team's players' parents celebrate a goal on the road hahahaha).
I also have to mention how shocked I am at seeing that NORTHERN MICHIGAN ELIMINATED MICHIGAN STATE FROM THE TOURNAMENT! This is both amusing and disappointing as I was kind of hoping for a Michigan vs Michigan State clash at Joe Louis Arena to force Michigan to beat the defending National Champions. I wonder how much this will affect Michigan State's seeding (if at all?) in the NCAA tournament. I believe this means that Michigan will play Northern in the semifinal as Michigan is the highest seed and Northern is the lowest. If that is the case, Michigan better be ready because the Wildcats will have momentum coming off of that upset.
Wow...I really can't believe Northern Michigan eliminated MSU. Hahaha....
