Badgers quest for title resembles same path of past teams
MCCLATCHY-TRIBUNE
MADISON, Wis. — The comparisons that have been drawn between the last University of Wisconsin team to win the NCAA Division I men's hockey title (in 2006) and the current group of players are understandable.
The 2005-'06 team, Mike Eaves' fourth as Wisconsin's head coach, was dominated by upperclassmen and, in winning the national title, took the final step in a rebuilding project that began with Eaves' hiring in the spring of 2002.
Eaves' current team is dominated by upperclassmen, most of who
talked openly before the season about making a run at the national title, and is the first Wisconsin team to reach the Frozen Four since '06.
Yet this UW team, which takes a 27-10-4 record into its national semifinal against the Rochester Institute of Technology (28-11-1) at 4 p.m. Thursday at Ford Field in Detroit, appears to have strong ties to Wisconsin's second and fifth NCAA title teams.
Eaves was a junior forward on the 1976-'77 team that recorded a 4-3 overtime victory over New Hampshire in the semifinals and then won the title with a 6-5 overtime victory over Michigan.
Current assistant coach Mark Osiecki was a senior defenseman on the 1989-'90 team that beat Boston College in the semifinals, 2-1, before crushing Colgate, 7-3, for the championship.
"I remember how sore my legs felt going into the overtime against Michigan," said Eaves, who helped UW advance to the title game by scoring off a face-off less than a minute into overtime to beat New Hampshire. "I remember the indomitable will of Steve Alley."
Both titles were won in Detroit.
Alley, a senior winger, scored 23 seconds into overtime to lift UW over Michigan.
"After the third period he was
not going to let us lose," Eaves said.
"That was his demeanor in the locker room and it is poetic justice that he ended up scoring the goal."
If one member of the current team fits that description it would be senior forward Blake Geoffrion
Fast-forward to Thursday.
Osiecki, in his sixth season on
One of UW's three captains, Geoffrion on Wednesday was named national player of the year by Inside College Hockey and is one of three finalists for the Hobey Baker Award. Geoffrion is a tenacious competitor, leading the team in power-play goals (14), and total goals (27) and is tied for the team lead in game-winning goals (four).
the staff, sees many qualities in the current team that drove the 1989-'90 team to a national title.
"For us, I don't think losing was ever an option." Osiecki said. "When we walked into any game we thought we were going to win, no matter what the score was. If they scored six, we were scoring seven. That was always the mentality."
Talent has been the foundation for the current team.
UW has more than a half-dozen NHL draft picks on its roster, including three of its top four scorers — sophomore forward Derek Stepan, Geoffrion and Smith, who made the list of 10 finalists for the
Hobey Baker Award.
Yet that talent might have gone to waste without a solid work ethic.
"Sometimes when you have a team you think is going to be pretty good you kind of just go out there and think things are just going to happen for you," said Street, the lone player left from the '06 title team. "This team didn't do that at all.
"It's been a competitive group all year. Basically every week guys have battled for their spot in the lineup. I think that is one of the things that kept us competitive and sharp. No one got complacent."
