Wilbur

Best of three regional. Best of three super regional. Frozen four. (Drops mic)

Boarded up buildings, broken glass all over....I thought their mayor said their city was back?

How terrible did downtown St. Paul get? Garbage everywhere, drug use, homeless individuals everywhere. My friend who lives in St. Paul said parking east of the rink was asking to get shot. Walking by a guy taking a crap by a building really summed things up.

It was such a treat to be able to meet Tim's wife. She was truly touched by all the kind words from everyone. I got to talk to her and found myself getting a little teary-eyed. Sprig was always first class when I talked to him. Always. A guy you'll never forget.

Bracket integrity was my #1 thing. And you regardless aren't going to be able to protect #1 or #2. They are out east. Why punish Mankato with a possible 9 seed instead of an 11 if those teams beat ND? My biggest gripe is the same people that talk no on campus regionals are the same ones that worry about "helping attendance", and "protecting higher seeds".

Seems like me and USCHO are on the same page.

They have the chance to keep it pretty close seeding wise. Me: Albany 1. Mich vs. 16 AIC 8. The Q. 9 The Irish Wooster: 2. Mankato vs. 15 Harvard 7. UND vs. 11 Mass Allentown: 3. Western vs. 14 NE 6. Goldy vs. 10 SCSU Loveland: 4. Denver vs. 13 Lowell 5. Duluth vs. 12 Tech

Ya know.....playing Umass with the lingering possibility of another game with Western. Not bad.

Tell this to Tim Walsh.

No way they put UND vs. SCSU. All costs go to avoiding first round interleague matchups. On second thought you may be correct because you could have 3 NCHC teams as 2 seeds.

Kind of like football now where receivers can go over the middle with no repercussions. Turn late, get hit, fall and its a review. It's not going away, so like those free safeties in football that have to ease up, the same goes for guys going into the wall to hit somebody. I just can't see a "don't put yourself in a vulnerable position" rule. Way too much gray area there for the officials to deal with.

Bump....Correa.....nice. If Gary Sanchez gets more at bats than Arraez......he just can't get more at bats than Arraez okay.

You know I walked past Gavin Hain last night and not enough can be said about how important he was to this year's team. The Jammer-Senden-Hain line would be huge this time of the year. Maybe Senden and Hain return next year? Coach B says this team will make us all proud in the post. Hope he's right, but just don't see enough chemistry right now with our forward lines. I've been wrong before, hope I am again.

Sanderson, Kleven, Hain, Albrecht all sitting a section over from me. Not our best night, but let's see what they can do with close to a full lineup

Not bad attendance for the afternoon session.

Beer #4.....but I'm not the man I once was....plus I have to call the wife later and pretend I'm not enjoying myself.

A bigger prediction is how many beers I can drink before the nightcap when I get to St. Paul. Regardless I bet I don't end up in prison for pushing a senior citizen down the stairs. UND 4....Western 1 Wilbur beers before puck drop: 7

They had to give it to him because what guy gets engaged in college while being on the most popular sports team in town? "Hey ladies.....yeah I'm the captain... ohh sorry I'm engaged"

Berry wins COTY. Ford wins DFOTY, Frisch wins DDOTY. Fanti well deserving of the goaltender honor. Had a great year for the Dawgs, congrats to him. My heart goes out to Driscoll though because he is the reason UND shared the league title with Denver. The goaltending UND got down the stretch was incredible.

I'd be in favor of bringing him to Gf, but with Hedquist coming in it won't happen.

I was super impressed with him when he was going well last season. Kind of like Ben Kraws for Miami who ended up at ASU. Big guy that moves well.

Count myself in sir. Me and at least one more guy will be there.

Thats such a bang bang play. It does look like it got knocked in with his glove, but was it intentional? Honestly if I was them I probably leave it as a good goal.

I'll take full responsibility for the end. I told my best friend that I was at the game with the only way CC gets a chance to tie this up is a late penalty on us. 5x5 they weren't going to generate anything, and they were fine with playing 4 guys back and watching us put a guy 5 feet from their blue line and deflecting pucks deep on outlets from our d men. On a side note, #1 star was Driscoll because of his work at the end. Guy absolutely battled to keep the puck out. Love Peter Thome. Great person, won some games for us, but is the team in this position with him in the net?

No goal. In arena so I don't have a good view.
