Let'sGoHawks!

Mitch Mac with the big hit...MITCHAPALOOZA!!!!!

Patient goal!!!

Take these guys down!!!

Easy now...and no, I am not at all knowledgeable about the Twin Cities area HS teams. I know of Minnetonka as one of the endless suburbs I drive through on 494. Not a fan of HS sports, unless I know one of the kids playing. I do know, however, that East Grand Forks HS is the only undefeated team in the state. Back on track: GO USA!!!

We could, you are correct. It appears you have a certain affinity for Phil, care to share? Maybe some "inside scoop" would provide some clarification.

Very well put. I was shocked to see some "cities HS coach" get this assignment, regardless of his NHL career. I have never heard of Stillwater hockey, perhaps if he came from an Edina or another school I had heard of, it wouldn't have been as bad. That said, this team (however it happened) is clicking bigtime! Gibson is a HUGE reason back there in the net.

Nice back to back wins over great teams!

From someone with a strong Canadian background: just how big are world juniors up there? I have heard HUGE, bigger than NHL, anyone care to elaborate?

Mermis is a former USNDT player. Nuff said

Rocco's situation is what it is, we won't find out the true details. However, I had to look up where Housley coaches, and it turns out it is Stillwater High School. Grant Potulny is an inexperienced assistant coach. Why are these guys 2 of the 3 coaches on Team fricking USA??? Can't we do better?

How was he losing it? I saw him yell lets go after one shift...not questioning you, just trying to figure out why they would sit him.

I see what you did there...

Gophers just working BC!!! Can't say I'm upset about it....man I hate BC

Agreed! Also, JT Miller is a ME player, but we all kind of knew that already.

Has to be biggest win for any UND non hockey team since the move up. Good job!

2-1 Russia

Nice shift by Rocco, tells next line "lets go!" As he skates off

USA gave Russia 4 PP's in 1st, have to clean that up! 1-0 Russia after one, I think USA has played well though...

Seth Jones is sure smooth out there isn't he? Glad he had UND as his only NCAA option, wish he could have been playing in the Ralph this year. (and only this year, as he is a one and done for sure) As I type this Jones scores!

So that's the issue!? Crazy I will get that removed

Freeimagehosting is the culprit for me on Chrome

This is what I was hoping you wouldn't post. Many gopher fans use this. Many of your program's wins in the early days were when there were only a handful of teams playing the sport. MN had a program before many others. Edit: I see bigskyvikes made the same point above my post.

Not trash talking, but honestly, why do you think UMN-Twin Cities belongs in the discussion for top 3 all time?

Buttfootball applies here. Can you blame other programs for getting in trouble, it's okay for the buttfootball team.....why not for them?

This will be labeled as "sour grapes" by NDSU fans. Why did UND back off?
