Coming on a message board full of some of the more diehard members of our fanbase to tell us some fans are jerks like we are not already aware is kind of extra...
This! This is the WHOLE point. The good die-hard members of your fan base are aware, yet won’t do anything. So you have to ask yourself, whose the issue. The people doing it, or the people who won’t stop it.

Again, thanks for being the moral authority. What was your purpose coming on here? To tell us we have some fans that aren't nice?
Jeebus.
God forbid you want to have some class.

You best go preach on gpl as well. And tell them those that would do 3000 damage on a car because the owner was a sioux fan need to be told by fellow gopher fans to knock if off.
They need to be arrested and then banned from Gopher home games. Plain and simple

Can you tell me where I quoted you in saying Gopher Fans are great? I'll wait for you to find it.....
I am telling you every fan base has those handful of fans that ruin it for everyone. VGK have them, the Wild, Blackhawks, Kings, Rangers, etc... all have those fans that act stupid. You are basing your argument on a team who is in year two of their existence and of your experience of only going to hockey game in Vegas, no where else. Pretty much a one sided lecture on how much better you and the rest of the bandwagon VGK fans are than everyone else.Again, no one is defending the actions of the small idiots that do this sort of thing but everyone is so immune to it that its not that big of a deal to regular fans who travel to watch hockey in other areas. Maybe if you left your small area of Las Vegas and checked out hockey you would see that VGK or any other team acts the same way.
How you going to say that a team in existence two years has bandwagon fans....remarkable.
I’ve attend a number of away games as a VGK fan and Gophers fan so believe me I’ve been outside my “bubble”.
Not saying any fans are better, they all have there issues. Simply saying when your traveling road show involve a high number of those fans probably best to look at your fan base and see if it’s people you want to associate with.

Considering your name is boozehound, I don't take your comments 100% seriously but I'll respond.
Every fan base has "bad fans", that is a given. Gopher fans are no better than UND fans. I have seen many Gopher fans cuss out the refs and yell obscenities towards the players in front of children. My wife and I have even been threatened at the Final Five in the past by Gopher fans, I've also witnessed it (especially with the younger crowd). So please, don't stand on a soapbox and pound your chest as being holier than thou because you are not. The fact that you came to a fan forum to "chastise" us, just shows that you are here to be a troll but you are also part of a fan base that is just as (or at times worse) than any other fan base in the country.Can you find me one time where I said Gophers fans are great? I’ll wait well you find that....
Oh you couldn’t. Of course I can’t comment on Gophers fans here, because none of the threats or physical acts were from Gophers fans. This probably has something to do with the fact that so few showed up, no arguement there. My post was Sioux fans took there traveling show to Vegas, and some didn’t represent well.
Probably time to make sure you aren’t part of that, and if you aren’t maybe just be a better human and tell the idiots who are to chill a step. It’s a game man.

I guess you missed the gopher fan by us who spent the entire game yelling, Sioux no no! And trying his best to be an àss. He succeeded.
Not concerned with the yelling, (assuming he wasn’t cussing). Concerned with physical harm. Cheering on either side is cool and expected General rule is don’t be a dick, and if your with a fan who is don’t encourage it

You're right. I've never once seen a Gopher fan do anything like that. They are always the epitome of class, especially when they heavily outnumber the opposing team fans.
So your answer for throwing ice at a kid is “everyone does it”? Be better. Just be better.
No one should be doing that.

Every fan base has good and bad fans. If you think the Vegas Knights are any different you are delusional. Even more so if you think if it had been a majority Gopher fans at the game and it would have been any different. The "checking from behind" penalty was a terrible call. I do however agree with you that no fans, from any school, should ever harass or assault fans from another school for cheering for their school.
I would disagree with you Vegas is much like a San Deigo or Miami. We just don’t care, we are there for a show and if you root for the other team so be it. VGK fan may boo you, but we’re not throwing ice or assulting you.
You can argue the level or caring is good or bad, but that’s a separate discussion.

Purposely waited until today to come on here and post.
I am hopeful a number of Sioux fans went to the VGK game last night to figure out what sportsmanship and team support is.
Some of the Sioux fans that attended the Gophers vs Sioux game are an absolute disgrace.
You were playing a neutral site game, that game was a couple thousand miles away. Sioux fans showed and they showed large (congrats on that), but some of those fans you all should be ashamed of. I’m from the Minnesota, and live in Vegas now so the Gophers coming to Vegas wasn’t going to be missed.
I’m cool with the trash talk, “gophers suck” and all that crap. But for the love of god, cus out the ref on the checking from behind penalty, throwing ice at a kid when cheering for the gopher goal. Grow up and have some class. Hopefully those idiots went to the VGK game and saw how real hockey fans act. Do better Sioux. You showed large, and you won congrats. Probably time to look at your friends and fan base and ask if those people should be a part of it.

Who’s indignant? Self assess, be better. Just be better is all I’m saving, you showed great impressive actually. Represent better while there.
