May have violated noise restrictions in my [neighborhood] when Craig scored.

Didn't matter here.  Three-year-old was up to watch it with me.

You have noise restrictions in your house?

I almost hit my head on the ceiling jumping up and down.

That was a great overtime period we played.  Dominated Michigan and kept the puck in the offensive end most of the time.

South London is now awake thanks to me.

Craig is just a big time player!  What a game!

Best comment during an intermission:  After showing a couple of goals from the Cornell win over Clarkson in the 1970 NCAA final, one of the commentators observed that the Cornell jerseys looked the same as the current one.  It matters.

And Michigan joins State.  At least the weather will be nice on the links this weekend.

Moving on to analysis:  Some of the most inconsistent reffing I've seen in a while.  Given DeSwardt's major, why weren't the obvious hit from behind on D'Agostino and that run taken at Miller at the end of regulation called?  And I'm not convinced at all that DeSwardt's hit deserved a major; indeed, Michigan seemed to embellish quite a bit.  Good thing Michigan's PP sucked, and good thing our PK figured them out.

Can we just decline penalty shots?  Especially in that situation, I rather would have had the two minutes.  I'll assume it wasn't Jillson's birthday, or perhaps I should assume it was his birthday.

What a beautiful pass to Ryan for the goal.  Just amazing.  Short-HAN-ded.  And what a resounding ding on McCarron's blast.  That sound has officially replaced Drouin's dinger.  Glad to finally be able to give that one up.

Wonderful shot of some Wisco fans going crazy right down in front after Craig's goal.  They've been cheering for us since '06.

Too bad we got scored on there toward the end.  We really did seem to have figured out the '97-vintage rope-a-dope.  Perhaps 20 minutes of that is just too much to ask.
