Why should we be Hockeyville USA?
"Regarding BGSU, I would think their biggest strength is that they never give up, They never slow down and they battle hard even after the other team scores. We have to be on our game and never, ever take the foot off the gas for a second."

"BG was relentless. It's like they know that a good first pass on the breakout from a defenseman will almost always result in an odd-man rush against them - but they go in anyway and dare you to make that pass. All three of their goals were just grit and effort. That's a team any fan can be proud to support...they give all they've got."

We were questioned by some Tech fans a few weeks ago, because they thought it was ridiculous that Division I rink was trying to win this. What I feel like most people outside of BG don't realize is just how much this rink does for the community and surrounding towns, as it's a ton beyond just hosting BGSU hockey games.

Tech fans have hounded the Bleacher Creatures and The Ice Arena on twitter two days in a row about this.
I don't know who they think they are, but I think it's safe to say that they easily have the whiniest and most obnoxious fanbase in the conference.

I don't think the GLI hype video during the series here helped their opinion of BG...mbenecke wrote:Tech fans have hounded the Bleacher Creatures and The Ice Arena on twitter two days in a row about this.

Something to keep in mind if there is an actual "fan vote" involved in this. The first year of fan voting for the Hobey Baker saw a Tech player receive more votes than the rest of the players combined.
