Minnesota State Purple Cows

Anyone hear updates on Baylis' and/or Dalton's status?

[mbenecke]

I think Baylis will play. It was described as a stinger, and it made sense that he would get the 3rd game of a 3 in 5 day span off.

Dalton is actually in a history class with me (as is the younger Bednard). He's still in a shoulder sling (right side) as of Tuesday, and I saw on his Instagram that he potentially visited a shoulder surgeon. Not to speculate, but I am operating under the assumption that he will be out for a while. I'd ask him how he feels and what's up, but that class was canceled today (great for me) so I won't see him until after this weekend.

I hope we come out hot and play a full 60 minutes both nights this weekend. It's going to be a challenge, for sure. My hope is to at least earn a split.

Go BG!

Baylis should be in the lineup Friday barring a setback. He had ice on a foot/ankle Saturday night after the game.

Dalton is probably going to be out a while, but I haven’t heard an exact diagnosis yet. Complete guess would be a shoulder separation with ligament damage but that’s 100% conjecture.

The cows are looking mighty tough. A split would be a good outcome.

Down 1-0 halfway through 1st period.

End of 2, BG down 1-2. Shots are 11-24.

Giving up goals with under 2 min remaining in period are killers.

Inability to win faceoffs is murder.

I'm not sure we won a single defensive zone face off the entire game:(

Why does our goalie have to cover the puck for a whistle, but theirs doesn't?

I'll answer this like Clubber. Hmmm, because our athletic department is too cheap. Minnesota State can afford their own whistle.

On a side note, I thought Minnesota State were the Screaming Eagles!

Why does Hastings have to have a conversation with a ref after every other whistle?

Hockey has more than enough money to win the WCHA. Not sure why they don't win, other than a lack of skill players. When's Huntsville coming to town?

Off ice conditioning and training lag way behind other schools.
