Thursday Night Pre-Game Movie: Anything but Employee of the Month. Louis CK never starred in an awful, awful movie that didn't need to be made. Why couldn't Dane Cook have copied that from him too?
Friday Afternoon Pre-Game Song: "Shame" by Stabbing Westward. Technically, Stabbing Westward is known more these days for the song "Save Yourself" which is played in the trailer of every action movie, but I always liked "Shame" better.
Games I'd Want to See If I Had Unlimited Funds: Miami at Michigan State. Both teams have an outstanding record, but haven't really been tested yet. This weekend should help tell us which of these teams are for real.
Controversial Play That a WCHA Official Will Probably Screw-Up: Something that is clearly explained in the NCAA's Points of Emphasis memo.
Cliche Arena Song of the Week: "Come on Feel the Noize" by Quiet Riot. Yes, they actually spelled 'noise' like that. My brother once played in a high school hockey game where this was the only song they played at every stoppage of play.
Picks to Click
Last week: 1 goal, 0 assists, 1 save, 3 goals against, one loss. I bet that one save was freakin' awesome though.
Forward: Blake Wheeler
Defenseman: Jack Hillen
Goalie: Jordan Pearce
Arena Food of the Week:Popcorn. I know this is a popular concession, because any time I'm at a hockey rink, someone has to walk up right behind me and eat some in my ear. I swear it's like I have a sign on my back or something.

Yep. Just as I thought. Notre Dame is Psych 1A. No test there.
Actually, it's Cum On Feel The Noize.
And Fulton is questionable for this weekend.
+1 for being correct
-2 for actually knowing that
Not only was it the only song they played between whistles, they also played it on loop during warm-ups for every single game.
I can one up all of you on that song. The song "Cum on Feel the Noize" was a cover version originaly done by a band called Slade. It was originally released in 1973 on the album "Sladest".
Slade was a cheesy glitter band from England that had several hits in the seventies such as "Mama Weer All Craze Now", "Skweeze Me Please Me" and "The Bangin' Man". Saw them in St. Paul in '74. The opening act was Bachman-Turner Overdrive. We actually thought Slade was supposed to be the opening act. Pretty surprised when we got there that Slade was the headliner that night.
The guitarist for Slade looked like he could have been a regular on the Jetsons. All of their songs pretty much sounded the same. They weren't very good but the show was pretty funny in a train wreck kind of way.

Haha hilarious Chris. Good work, got a good laugh on that one!
Trevor Hunt is actually out with a shoulder or arm injury or something like that. By the way he plays for UAA
