The last time in Tampa in this same spot the Q had a massive turnover to start the 3rd and UND rolled from there. If the Gophs get the next one I think it's ball game much like 2016.

Cohen trying to lob softballs to Barry....

Shoulder to shoulder head injury.

Lets see how Minnesota reacts to playing a heavy older team. Kind of takes them back to last year's semi against the Mavs. How have they grown as a team since then? We shall see tonight.

NCHC reffs for the final. I put in a message to the league officiating office that #89 for Minnesota is actually Tyler Kleven in disguise and to call anyone he touches like you have all year long.

Have you checked out gopher Twitter at all lately?

If this is the exact score I win my office college hockey pool. I can win if the gophers win, but this would be me taking all the money

If the Q can match Cooley, Knies, and Snuggy and get them in their own end against some big bodies they can have success. But then Minnesota has 5 NHL d men IMHO.

Got to give credit to Gopher Bob. Super good coach, good person. I hate the gophers, but it's okay to give the man credit.

So let's look at the starting goalie for the Gophers.... So....gasp....24.... And what's worse!!!! CANADIAN In honor of Wally and Doug Woog the gophers should forfeit. *Edit* And he can come back next year as a...25 YEAR OLD OVER AGED CANADIAN....

The Gophers don't play a lot of teams like the Q. They played Mankato earlier this year and on the NHL sheet they struggled a bit. The Gophs more talented, but if the Bobcats put together another performance like tonight and they've got a chance.

Portillo again standing tall again. 3-2 Q, bout 10 minutes left.

I know there are a good number of people that dislike Starman, but he puts Cohen to shame. Four or five times already I've thought "are we watching the same thing?"

There we go Rand....

These last five minutes have been great hockey. Teams throwing punches.

Game is going exactly opposite of what I thought we'd see.

Portillo just won't let the Q get the two goal lead.

Just seems like a game that Michigan will hang around in all game and find a way. The Q needs to bury their looks because they've had the better of them.

@MafiaMan would like to speak to you about that victory over the Q....

RR with 6 forwards and if Sproule wasn't hurt it would be 7.

That BU team not close to Minnesota. I would have liked to see Denver in that spot to see how they would have done. I still think Minnesota wins.

Why on earth a person can't get the mlb package and watch their hometown team.....

If I'm the gophers I keep forechecking hard. Play with the puck.

Anybody want to bet on who gets the next penalty?

I think BU goalie wants that one back.
