1 Hour and 50 Minutes

With David Nasternak and Alex Drain

This Podcast Has a Sponsor: Michigan Law Grad Jonathan Paul is the guy with the C you want skating next to the ref and pleading your case. He's also a good guy to sit next to at the hockey games.

Segment 1
Alex is a consistent sleeper who naps easily unless exhausted. Early start times negatively effect students. Who else has slept in an airport rather than get a hotel? Anyways, hockey trip time, the gang meets a Bentley grad. Michigan beats Bentley in what you'd want to see in a #1 vs #16 matchup while also being able to bench injuries and rest starters. Bentley traveled really well, the loudest moment of the game was their one goal.
Segment 2
Penn State vs Minnesota Duluth was one of the best games of the opening round. Which team would you have preferred? Gavin McKenna hype was overblown. Duluth was always dangerous and capable of a big run. A 3-0 lead was nice but felt dangerous. We like when Michigan scores short-handed goals. Despite holding a 4-1 lead in the third and being the stronger team, Michigan nearly collapses. Should it have been goalie interference on one of the Duluth goals? Duluth also had too many men on the ice for a solid 15 seconds. Garrett Shifsky's goal line stand might've been the play of the year. A "Sparty Nooooo" is one of the worst collapses in the history of the tournament. Next year's Michigan roster looks really strong. Denver is almost a mirror of Michigan. Would you rather beat up Wisconsin or North Dakota in the chamionship game?
