Game Day 2/8/2013 (Updated)

Yeah I know, I'm still figuring out my schedule but let's dive right in shall we. Overall it was a great weekend, we got two points via a tie and a tie, I would have much preferred a win and a loss but oh well. Kurt will not be available to make the Michigan trip, and we on the radio side will be listening to Michigan Tech's Dirk Hembroff. I believe David Tuttle is away on assignment, I forgot where. And I don't think Tuttle has ever been on the road with Kurt for any on-air broadcasts. I hope Kurt heals up, but if that means we miss him for another few weeks so be it, I'd rather him be healthy as opposed to coming back to soon for just a broadcast. Here is a piece by goseawolves.com.

We play Michigan Tech this weekend and I'm hoping for the best, potentially if Wisconsin sweeps Bemidji and we sweep MT we could have 12 points (same as Bemidji) but we would be behind them because of the head-to-head match up (1-0-1 in favor of Bemidji). I like when we can open up our style and just go down and up the ice, our boys have now shown we can hang with opponents when it's five-on-five. We have to stay out of the box, and have some fun. Don't take stupid penalties, yeah you can stick up for your teammates but don't do it in a way to get a penalty. We need points, wins, not more penalty minutes. Game times are 3:07 pm AKST and then 1:07 pm AKST.

This is what I hope we do to Michigan Tech this weekend

This was a great fight by the way, my friend was at Buffalo Wild Wings and said the place went crazy as Overreem was heavily favored and hyped up

Things to look out for
• The last eight home games MT has gone 1-5-2
• The last five games between us MT has won the last three games, and UAA has won five in a row before that, for awhile we went 6-0-2 against MT. This is opposed to the notes section in UAA's Release where it says MT has won the last 4 of 5 and us the 5 before that
• Sophomore Derek Docken has totals of 1-2-3 in 4 games against MT
• Sophomore Andrew Pettitt has amassed 0-2-2 in 2 games vs. MT
• Junior Jordan Kwas has four Power Play goals, nobody else has more than one this season
• Sophomore Kory Roy has yet to register his first collegiate goal, 0-9-9 in 46 GP
• Senior Alex Gellert needs one more assist for his career 25th
• Sophomore Scott Allen needs two more points to amass 25 career points
