I guess life as a two seed in Cincinnati is the way to be.

You are playing for a one seed, and the best team in the country didn't start four players who will likely play in the NHL.....

I'd be up for getting rid of it. Have another week of league play and have the top five teams play the....wait for it....NCHC final five.....with no third place game.

Paging Western.....Denver's top line is in the press box. Next to their all league goalie, and Hobey Baker candidate defenseman.....

Hockey East officials and they are screwed.....absolutely screwed. Andy Murray red face bench minor screwed.....

Yes he does.

1-0 Denver. Their other players are good too I guess.

Denver has done the same thing every year they've been in the third place game. Pros: -Zero chance of top guys getting hurt before real season starts next weekend, and you don't want your best players having runs taken at them in a meaningless hockey game. Cons: Starting a bit of a losing skid going into the NCAA's, giving your players the mentality that not every game they lace em up for your university is of the utmost importance. Sucks for fans who bought tickets too, because you could see a really good hockey game between two top five teams. Instead one team will go through the motions. Then again, how many Denver fans are actually there?

Could mean Western in Fargo as a 1 seed....hmmmm...

Methinks tonight is a great time to wear the green jerseys (business suits shipped to Fargo). My bet is that any players that are dinged up for UND won't play tonight. Boeser, Shaw, Bowen? It's a big game, but they are now definitely in Fargo next weekend and that's got to be the bigger focus moving forward.

My favorite part about all of this is the fact that the true Minnesota hockey fans knew it was a mistake, and cringed when faced with the reality. I was at Alarys talking to a bandwagon Gopher fan the last year of the WCHA and she went on and on about the bigger and better future ahead because of the big ten conference. A true Minnesota fan jumps into the convo and tells the gal to "shut the fvck up, this will suck $hit for us" (Minnesota). Funny how right drunk hockey fan was before it all started....

Hahaha. Goldy loses.

This Penn State-Minnesota game is pretty good. Penalty on Minnesota, can't tackle....

Jost showed his worth in puck battles won in all zones. Watching him knock Borgstrom off the puck makes me want him more than Borgstrom on our team.

Thoughts: -Hard, physical, sioux hockey. -Shaw back was huge, all three d pairs able to play regardless of Denver's lines. -Will take the puck luck. Denver misses three wide open nets, about time for this team. -Nice to have a veteran goalie in the postseason.

Brass balls boys!!!!!!

BOOM!!!!

Tim Walsh is reffing....of course.

Last play point. Denver zone.

That is a ridiculousl call.

That's the definition of how not to play a scissor cycle play if you are in your own end. Bowen and Ausmus....gotta talk boys.

Whistle....need a whistle....

I'm a goalie, very partial to goalies, but guy shot it right into Cam....

Ohh my lucky.....
