Hey Gang I was at the Midwest Regional last night. All I can say is "Absolutely awesome Hockey" Wow.......... The squad from Alabama Huntsville gave Norte Dame all they could handle and yes Narduzzi was amazing. It was a historic game as a 4th Regional seeded with a losing record or 16th seeded overall had never in the history of this Tournament ever taken a #1 Seeded overall to OT, let alone Double OT. I had a Press Pass so I've got some Fantastic Photo's which I'll upload for your viewing pleasure when I can get some time. In the meanwhile here's the Updated Standings after Fridays Game. The Squad from MSU totally dismantled the Boston U squad and Norte Dame better snap out of the funk they were in last night against Ala-Huntsville. Poor Boston U. They were basically a higher seeded team playing a supposed Home Game (They were the home team) when in reality the 4,000+ spectators we're 95% MSU Fans. They made the atmosphere fantastic the place was rocking. I loved all the school pep band battles and the student sections. I only saw about 10 Boston U. students. Anyway like I said I'll post some pics. I'm going to the Final Tonite as Notre Dame recovers from basically playing 2 games the night before and faces a well oiled MSU squad that's clicking on all cylinders.
skydivedad, the Terriers are big boys, used to playing in front of passionately partisan crowds, whether their own or someone else's. Maybe the crowd was a factor, but if it was, it shouldn't have been. Damn, I haven't been able to actually watch any of this yet.
