Tonight's the start of a very testing weekend for Michigan. Will Racine get both starts in goal? Will the forwards re-capture their offense after a mostly-quiet weekend from New Hampshire? Will the improved team defense that Berenson's after be on display?

Do you think we'll see the same 6 D-men in the lineup tonight

that played in the 2-1 win over UNH?

Playing well last weekend certainly counts, as well as playing well in practice this week. I did not attend any practice this week, so I can't speak to possible pairings.

Thanks, Steve. Saw you at the Friday game last weekend, but couldn't get down to visit. Next time!

Cool, need to catch up, although I guess it's about three weeks before they get back to Yost ! I guess at least for tonight the forwards (at least the second line forwards) have found their scoring touch.
