Starting the backup was a head scratcher, Motzko has some of that Lucia arrogance in him. The "best D in the country" didn't do the goalie any favors though. The announcers were wrong about so many things all weekend. Yes, it's nowhere near the biggest show in town, but there's gotta be better talent available in a major metro area. In the articles leading up Motzko said something about not watching the tapes, already knowing how North Dakota plays. Whether or not this was tongue in cheek, it showed on our PP because they had no idea to smother Gaber like seemingly every other team figured out. @Blackheartif you want my log in for Big Ten Plus to put these on your channel, let me know. Two instant classics, not quite the lore of "the timeout game", but the four minutes following the stick toss should be immortalized on YouTube for generations to come. Pitlick is going viral, just not in the way he thought he would. There was probably a ~35% chance it'd be a Sioux fan that caught it, and sure enough.

That hit on Schmaltz was so much more dangerous than Kleven's.

Get more shots on this goalie.

Looks like the ice is not improved over last night.

What's the home/away factor for pairwise? 0.8/1.2 or 0.9/1.1? EDIT: per Brad's tweet it's 0.8/1.2

That was a fun game to watch despite the outcome. Gophers are more talented and will be scary good when they gel better. DeRidder kept us in it and was the player of the game, but the Gophers took a lot of shots he had clean looks at; don't let the shot differential fool you. All-time bad call against Blake, Chesley slipped like EVERYBODY ELSE did tonight with how shoddy the ice was.

3M employees don't bother using their tickets.

Refs better not call anything iffy on us.

Schmaltz timed his fly-by screen perfectly on Gaber's shot.

Really liked Sidorski's hit on Nelson moments after the hooking penalty.

Both games are listed as available through the site/app, and it says only games on Big Ten Network (which neither game is) are blacked out.

James sitting is surprising.

YouTube just recommended this to me.

And now he's trying to help the very teams full of overagers he tried to handicap back in the day. What a weasel.

Onhockey.tv does NOT have it listed, so really hoping our guardian angel pulls through. If not, a monthly pass to Minnesota on Big Ten plus is $10.

Glad to see both coaches want to keep this series going.

The story of a U of Utah football player being offered 1 million by a collective to transfer to whatever school the collective represented is a good indicator of the direction NILs are taking.

On one hand, it sucks that midco screwed up and sent the wrong feed. On the other, it's unacceptable that NCHC/sidearm didn't confirm it was the right stream.

Is this the fault of NCHC or Midco?

Yep

Definitely the guy who plays dead and hides underneath a fallen comrade. He also plays a huge chump in Point Break.

Berry couldn't sit still in the interview with Alex and Jake immediately afterwards. He's not one to fidget like that normally, adrenaline was still pumping. Contrast what happened in our game to Denver and Duluth.

Gotta imagine Big Ten gets them. Only potential hang up is their lack of AAU status.

We just witnessed one of the most exciting games in recent memory, even if it doesn't mean anything in the standings it felt good to win the shootout. In one evening, we pretty much ruined Perets' chances for the Richter Award this year.

Cannot WAIT for Rand's post game.
