Fans always jump off the bridge. Only once in the last 8 years have we not had bridge jumping at some point in time. I think most of us knew that UND is fine in the pairwise right now, and even had they been swept they still would have been fine. Even Brian jumped off one year.....even Brian!!!! But that troll came back.

Love the line game! Woo Hooo Kristo-Knight-Grimaldi Rowney-Parks-Mark M. St. Clair-Mitch M.-Caggiula Rodwell-Pattyn-Gaarder Mac-Mattson Forbort-Panzarella Gleason-Simpson Zane or Saunders.......After Zane's play last night I think they're even.

Eight points out there over the course of the next two weekends. Both teams playing pretty good hockey. SCSU swept Denver, and Wisconsin has lost one game since November (last night 2-1 to Miami). Last night still feels like a loss (sorry Mafiaman), but if anything it should give this group confidence that they played toe to toe with what will still be the #1 team in the nation come Monday morning. PS: Right now something called Quinnipiac is #1 in the pairwise.....Why does the pairwise love the ECAC? Got to be something ACT related.....

1. Agreed 2. Agreed 3. Agreed.....Kristo was impressive too 4. St. Clair played with an edge. Agreed 5. Agreed. Jim doesn't do it for me either 6. Agreed. 7. Agreed. You can just post for me from now on.

Ohhh one more thing. WCHA offensive player of the week....Nate Condon. Absolute beast mode this weekend.

Kind of surprised that Schmaltz was in the lineup. We've seen high profile guys get the suit after a bad performance before (LaPoint, Mattson). I have a buddy that thinks Schmaltz will never be a healthy scratch because he's a flight risk that they want to keep happy. I don't think thats the case, but he's got to be better. Also, way too much talent to sit.

Thoughts: ~The d core.....ufff......goals 2,3,4 were all goals that they lost battles on and it ends up in the net. ~I'll eat half a crow. Zane was good. Wish he had one more save in him. ~Kristo-Knight-Rocco were fun to watch together. Two posts in OT. Fun to watch. Feels like a loss. Didn't get swept like I was kind of expecting, but left a big point out there on the table. The way Minnesota has been playing its tough because they could have knocked off the best team in the country, the way North Dakota has been playing its nice because I had my questions after CC-and Holy Cross. PS: Dean Blais wouldn't blow a two goal lead in the third period...... Sorry, had to....

I'm going to steal a line from my buddy oxbow....next team that scores wins.

Third period underway. Playing not to lose shouldn't be in the cards hopefully.

I don't mind other fans posting on the site, actually love it. Good to know about whats going on in their team's world. And good to get an opposite viewpoint. Just don't question god awful officiating when its right in front of you.

You didn't see Rowney get tripped? Honestly? Honestly? Non-biased hockey fan....you didn't see Rowney get tripped?

Hey, they're talking about head injuries on FSN. This isn't legal kids.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaIgM-Guz_8

We must not be watching the same hockey game.

You're a gopher fan.....why would it be garbage....

They've been okay through the weekend but what a GOD AWFUL sequence. Talk about crapping the bed.

Garbage officiating.....garbage.

So how is that not a charge or a boarding call on Warning? Waiting? And now a penalty on UND. Yup.

Need to get out of the period. Time to take a deep breath.

All set up by a horrible icing by Rodwell.

You talk about the worst possible thing that could happen.....and it just happened.

Timeout for UND. I think thats the right call at this point in the hockey game. Fourth line out there on a DUMB icing by Rodwell.

We had the Budish argument earlier this season, and I want to take this time to reaffirm that he is a helluva hockey player. Great shift by him. Rocco!!!!!

Rau did get in a lot of fights in the USHL. Wait.....

Rau should have gotten at least head contact. I slowed it down on DVIR. As soon as he lets go of the puck he lifts both of his fists to Mac's head when he's about to get hit. Coincidental penalties was the right call.

So does Rau get anything for intentionally punching Mac with two fists in the head in the corner? Okay....guess its okay to lead with two fists to the head....Rau is such a weakling.....Good hockey player....but will never do anything other than run away when it gets rough out there.
