more from vegasgopher on gpl: Ok, let me see if I have this straight about the current state of gopher hockey?-we are the 4th best program in the BIG, at best -we are the 4th best program in the state, at best-our building is half full on most nights, at best. Unless we are playing a rival and then they outnumber us-for our 2 biggest rivalry weekends of the year we can't even get a band to play. Enrollment is over 50,000 and alumni number in the millions -we lost the national championship game to Union, I'll say it again Union-our coach is wearing fancier clothes now than when he coached for Jan Brady state-not enough Minnesotans, 1st rounders, players over 22 years old, not enough Canadians, too many from Edina/ sw metro-the Olympic size sheet we've played on forever is now too big and everyone just skates around us and laughs -ticket prices are too high and beer hasn't helped -mini donuts are missed more than wins (tongue firmly in cheek)-Minnesota is now a football school And the reply is: Nailed it!

PS This is for SiouxSports folks, please don't share elsewhere. Thank You!!!! In NewYork City and could not get the game. Double thank you!

Ottawa is between Toronto and Montreal. You couldn’t FLY there in 1:45!

Amen to this^^^ I thought it was monstrous large, but LOVE it when play in in corners where my view is blocked by students standing and by boards. Can really see the play well when down low and or on the wall.

Fixed your post...….

Is there anyone home? How can you have any pudding if you don't eat your meat?

Minnesota needed the PP to beat Niagra…….. so stay out of the box! Duluth had 2 early 5 min majors- but gave up 1 goal on them. Loss of d men showed late when Wisco went at them tho. They committed a 3rd 5 min with no call in the 3rd too. Plus gave up a shorty. So Duluth was getting called tonight on their aggressive play- early in the season, and with B10 refs tho.

For those counting...…… 40 days until puck drops....

????? Cant find a story here....

Just 60 days until the puck drops...……..

Just 75 days till puck drops as of today....in a couple hours, it's 74....

But Brandon’s litter is actually litter. Rink bunnies not do much.

So. No Canadian teams left in playoffs? What’s TSN going to talk about?

There were Sioux fans all over the place. Some were cheering loudly for AIC, but it appeared to be just small groups from where I was. Hard to be sure, as some obnoxious drunk Sioux fan was loudmouthing crap at St. Cloud fans so much we couldn't hear much of anything else. I was really embarrassed for how that makes our fan base appear to visitors--I know I know--Cloud fans do it to us in their house. Still not right. I apologized to the elderly couple in front of us, as she put her coat on to leave mid 3rd period, and she sat down until the end. We will be there tonight-- want to see AIC defrock the Pios...

The game was what it was--St Cloud choking once again, 3rd time in 4 years for this heavy senior class. The ice looked good at the start of game 1. But it was really not good at all by game 2. St. Cloud had major issues with their finesse style play, especially on the PP. Could not count the number of whiffs or miss-plays during good shooting attempts- or even passes. Especially R. Poehling… when set up on PP. But credit AIC- they actually had more good scoring chances than Cloud until the very end, despite only 13 shots on goal. And a 3rd goal disallowed as it was 1-2 seconds after a period end. As well as a crossbar miss. As it turns out, looks like all goals were scored by AIC- as I think the Cloud goal went in off an AIC Dman…. I feel bad for the NCHC (national champion hockey conference), as this looked to be St. Clouds year, finally. The Scheels arena looks likely to be a tomb tomorrow- AIC vs Denver? Saw maybe a dozen Denver fans. AIC had under 700 per game at home. so....no one here but Sioux fans making a Holy Cross type statement.
