Extra Time, Part I The 'Jackets have established a team record by going to overtime ten times so far this season.  That breaks the record of nine, previously held by the 2004-05 team.

Extra Time, Part II With all the overtime hockey, the 'Jackets have played 43:40 (or just over two periods) of extra hockey this season.

Kiss Your Sister Friday's tie with St. Scholastica was the 'Jackets eighth of the season, giving them the school record for ties in a season, bettering the mark of seven set by the 2001-02 national championship squad.

Playoff Sweeps The 'Jackets haven't swept a first-round playoff series, or any playoff series for that matter, since dispatching St. Scholastica in round one in 2004-05.

Playoff History The 'Jackets will be meeting UW-Eau Claire in the first round of the playoffs for the fourth time in school history.  They have won the previous three meetings and won them all via the two-game sweep.

Iron Men Four Yellowjackets - Logan Isley, Derek Paige, Seth Reda and Andrew MacKenzie - played in all 25 regular season games.

The Captain Returns Dustin Cosgrove returned to the lineup against St. Scholastica in the season finale, just his sixth game of the season.

He Loves Playing The Saints Braden Desmet had three points Friday against St. Scholastica, and now has nine points in six career games against them.

To The "A" And Back Former Yellowjacket Dale Lupul was signed away from Bossier-Shreveport of the CHL by the Quad City Flames of the AHL, the top minor league affiliate of the Calgary Flames.  But without playing a game, he was let go and reported back to Bossier-Shreveport.

Stingray Sensation Former Yellowjacket Jeff Glowa is the captain of the Hull Stingrays in Englands top professional league for a second straight season.  His coach in Hull says "what can I say about Jeff Glowa that hasn't already been said? He is one of my favourite players of all time as a coach. He's a guy who will give 110% everyday in every shift."

#2 Former Yellowjacket Josh Liebenow, playing this season in Germany, is second on his team in scoring with 32 points in 43 games.
