Game Night!
Alright, the blog is back after some technical issues this week. The goal was to change the actual address of the site but I ran into some complications, SO, I just added another address to the site. You can enter the current address "www.supportcctigerhockey.blogspot.com" OR you can enter "tigerhockey.info". Both will get you to the same place but I will be publicly using the new one, something about it rolling off the tongue easier :).
So, most of you are probably wondering why its 9pm and I'm just now putting up the info for the game, games are usually over in about an hour from now right? Not so tonight. CC is on Alaska Time Zone this weekend which is 2 full hours behind Colorado. I never even knew this existed so I had to go do some research. The game is scheduled to start at 9:37 Mountain time so while you are waiting, here is some reading from the week:

Colorado College at Alaska Anchorage
Friday – 10:30 p.m. CST
Saturday – 10 p.m. CST
The first place Colorado College Tigers will look pad their four-point lead over DU for first place in the WCHA as they head north to take on Alaska Anchorage this weekend. They key to these games will be the Seawolves’ ability to slow down CC’s high-octane offense, which is led by the likes of Chad Rau, Jimmy Kilpatrick, and Billy Sweatt. They are averaging 3.6 GPG in WCHA play; the Seawolves have been scoring just 2.17 GPG in conference play, and go up against one of the conference’s best goaltenders in the form of Tiger freshman Richard Bachman, who has been the biggest surprise of the season so far. Expect CC to handle UAA handily in one night, but don’t be surprised if the Seawolves push the Tigers to the limit in one of the two contests.
