Thus the "I hope I'm wrong"

A kid like Strinden would take a bullet for the program. You've got a few heading out where you can't convince me that's the case.

I was thinking JPL to be our new goalie guru. Long professional career and we need goaltending development.

This feels like all the assistants are back....I hope I'm wrong.

I was on the Herter bandwagon. Not shocked it's Jackson as we never stray away from comfort....

Wherever Herter goes, he wins. (C) @gfhockey

You just can't touch anyone after you got a major PP. Same when you get a 5x3....don't touch anybody.

Not a good play by the Russian. Don't leave it up to chance.

Wow.....I can't believe that's a 5....

Umass is a good team. Well coached. It'll be a battle.

Gotta remember that UMass is not far removed from the Natty and back to back HE titles. They've got some players. And the monster goalie.

In the heart of many Gopher fans i felt i was diplomatic....

I was impressed with Eisele. Played a lot of heavy minutes against Western. I kind of thought he may seek out a pay day after the season. The other one may be Alex Tracy, although he's been with Strand forever.

Reffs missed a trip. The other stuff was your typical below the goal line hockey.

Either: -Top four teams host regionals. -Two weekends of best of three then frozen four. 1 v 16, 8 v 9, etc. First weekend is the regional, second weekend is the super regional. Higher seed hosts. Super regional during basketball final four. Or we just continue to play the most important games of the season on $hit ice....makes sense.

Doesn't Zeev know how bad the Wild need him?

I wish my wife loved me like Colby Cohen loves Bucci.....

Right, remember we all hate the gophers! Just went super slowed down on the play because I'm being unproductive at work on a Friday after I was at Scheels until midnight yesterday. (my boss reads the forum and now knows this now as well....) As Chesley or however you spell it is crossing over his right foot is in the air and coming down the exact moment the UMASS player tries to sweep check the puck. The stick gets him on the toe of the boot enough that it causes him to lose his edge and go down. Anyone who has skated knows that there are times where you step on a blade or a piece of tape or a screw on the ice and you take your spill wondering WTF just happened. This did not cost Minnesota the game. Mr. NIL not picking up his guy defensively and the gophers watching UMASS outwork them cost them that game.

Did he ever apologize for calling a Minnesota kid a "Hose Head"? I'm guessing not. And at a place like the U of M people have lost their jobs for less hurtful things said publicly....

Doesn't change the outcome, but my opinion is it was a penalty. If you watch his stick you can see the moment that it hits his leg and rattles or whatever word you want to use for it. Just one guy's opinion obviously. Happy we are talking about the gophers losing during the NCAA tournament! (Wish our team was there.....)

You need this in your day...

First time I've ever saw someone throw a jersey on the ice.

With great power comes great responsibility.

Two good games. Thanks for the tickets @Oxbow6, much appreciated. The way Minnesota played in the second period I thought they'd win 5-1. I can't believe Bob didn't call timeout to settle the troops down a bit. Wouldn't have been enough time for the fix, but it would've given the backup time to stretch at least. Snuggy is tremendous with the puck, his play away from it defensively cost Minnesota on the rush after the no call. My opinion doesn't count, but I think it was a penalty.

Dangit, I picked Minnesota to win the tournament....
