I thought we lost the shootout last week. At least I'm pretty sure that's what the game thread said.

Good catch, you were right.

According to the schedule Saturday's game starts at 5:05pm...did they change the game back to 7:05? From what I read all of the remaining Saturday home games start at 5:05...

For fun between periods this week the BGYHA will be having various activites, so that should be a nice change of pace.

GO FALCONS!

Anything (including dead air) would be better than those silly 'price is right' games.

True that Freddie. Usually, the words, "please welcome to the court/ice _______ from marketing" means it's time to hit the bathroom or the concession stands. Aside from flinko, and maybe chuck-a-puck, most of the promotional stuff over the last 5 years has been less than stellar.

After 1 it's tied at 1s.
Vargas scores a penalty shot late in the period to tie it up.
Shots: 17 for BG, 6 for WMU.

I think it goes without saying that we need to win this one tonight. Cmon BG!

3-1 good guys in the 2nd. Vargas, Page, Sinclair with goals for the Falcons. Eno has stopped 9 of 10 shots.

After 2 it's 3-2 BG. Goals by Page and Sinclair. Game Misconduct on Dee and Henry for WMU.

According to Drew's gamecast the game is going into OT. WMU tied it up with three seconds left.




Edit: BG wins in a shootout!

SO Win

we blew a lead but at least pick up a SO win in the CCHA standings, T for NCAA!
