Ohio State Men's Ice Hockey (2019 B1G Champions)

[ORD_Buckeye]

Despite the Domers winning their tournament and beating #4 Providence, we held on to the #1 spot and actually picked up some first place votes. Should be another dominant Winter sports season again with NC contenders in men's and women's hockey, fencing, men's volleyball and wrestling. Eat shit, Stanford. Now if we could just get some Fall points besides football we might actually make a run at the throne.

Back within 3-2 at the end of the 2nd period.

Re-upped my Ohio State only BTN+ subscription just in time to see them close it to 4-3. Come on Bucks. Let's hold onto that #1 ranking for a bit longer.

5-3 UMASS :(

Oh well, it was a nice two weeks atop the college hockey world. Team needs to come out tomorrow night with the foil on.

We drop rito 4th in the USCHO poll and lose all but one of our first place votes. Domers are the new #1. So if we sweep Bowling Green next week, we'll likely be playing the domers for the #1 spot the following week

Bowling Green is ranked 15th this week, so we have the opportunity to get two quality wins and build some momentum for the next week's showdown in South Bend. If we can sweep BG and split with the domers, I'll be happy.

I just got home, and Bowling Green is up 7-1. They went up 7-0 on only 18 shots. Glad I didn't watch it because it may have been the worst two periods of hockey played in the history of hockey.

#1 PRESEASON RANKING.

Well, tonight in Bowling Green is going to tell a lot. The game was actually worse than the score. BG scored two short-handed goals. Ohio State had five power plays in the first two periods and came up empty. Ohio State had the best power play in the entire country last year and has everybody off that team back, including 2 legit Hobey Baker candidates. They need to put the foil on tonight but not come out chippy and cheap...just good, hard, disciplined hockey and out-talent BG.

FWIW, I had a dream last night that I was at BG tonight. We were losing 27-0.
