DLW4GOPHERS

Because the last two NCAA match up beteen the Gophers and Whious have turned out so well for you......

5-0 final. SOG were 51-7.

How long has Karvinin been at North Dakota? Just curious as why this is her last year.

Big 10 figured there wouldn"t be any fighting in the handshake line so they deceided to do it after every game. Sorry guys, I couldnt resist. If your team continues it's late season surge, like you normally do. Anyone looking forward to a Excel region of Mn, North Dakota and Jany Brady State with one East team thrown in.

At least you were able to watch the game and see the empty seats. I have no idea how North Dakota is drawing this year, because they are seldom on tv. Big and Big Ten Network are doing just fine.

This is too easy. The same can be said about the Sioux fans a week later during the regional game. When Condon scored his goal I thought I was going to get trampled in the stamped. I am not sure how the internet banter will go between our two fan bases over the next few years. Will it die down some because we are not playing each other or will it get more intense?

I love the way UND fans bitch about Gopher hockey and then you spend your time watching them on tv counting empty seats.

It can't be a suprise to anyone that we are in the same region, again. Next year we will get matched up in the first round since we will no longer be in the same conference.

It wasn't meant as a troll. I know if the Men's pairwise had someone two spots out of the NCAA tourney they would not get in. Guess I just don't understand the Women's pairwise. I felt the top three team deserved to be in the tourney as all three would do very well in the NCAA's.

Your miracle was making the field of 8 when you finished 10th in the pwr. Just saying.

Not so much. The 2001-02 and 2002-03 seasons went ok for the Gophers. I would imagine you would get the same feeling everytime you see Grant behind the Gopher bench. Recruiing is a battle just like a hockey game. You are not going to win them all. When one recruiting battle is over you go on to the next one. Over the years Minnesota has expanded their recruing areas. Condon from Wisc., Warning from Mo. and next season Guertler from Florida. Gopher will always get the bulk of thre players grom the home state, but you have to go out add a few pieces from other areas. Last year we got the Gertlers, Cammaratas and Kloos. This year you got Gersich & Poganski. Next.

5 of our first 6 in the WCHA were all on the road. Yes most of our OOC games are at home. Many schools will come here to play Mn. for the exposure for recruiting. Last time I checked everyone get the same amount of conference home games.

If your going to give a player crap about something at least try to get it right. The player that was checked from behind was Budish. It may or not deserved 5 , but it was clearly a penalty.

I am just surprised you guys knew who to cheer for. I know how big of fans you are of Holy Cross.

Like that would ever happen. No way a Gopher would ever put on a ND logo and vice versa.

Does that mean UND is a good second half team. Until the FF that is.

He is only a Jr. in HS and I think he is a young 16. It is a verbal at this time.

I just got my season tickets in the mail today. Noticed they upped the price of Gopher tickets for the UND series and the BADger season to $45 a ticket. So all of you fans that will be coming down. Bring your wallets.

I have to agree with Goon on this. Macturi will not pull the pin on the contract. By the time they replace the AD it will be too late to do anything about the 2011-12 season. We are stuck with him at least one more year. Hopefully Don will wake up and realize he needs some new assistants if this thing is ever going to get back on track. I doubt he will fire Hill, but he should. Go WCHA in the tourney. Not going to go so far as say good luck to the Sioux, the rivalry won't let me do that.

Nice to see all the kind words on here about Lucia. He has two rings that your coach hak doesn't have, Until that happens, maybe you should take a step back from slaming the guy.

Tell your AD that when they split up the play-off money

Wow and I thought St. Cloud had the Marsha, Marsha complex.

Wow, not trying to start anything from my end, but I do remember Lucia winning two NCAA titles. I will leave it at that since I am on SS.

Minnesota plays at Michigan and at Michigan State every other year. Not sure how you can blow that off so easy and not count that as traveling. The other years when there not in Michigan. 2006-07 went to Ohio State for two. 2004-05 Went up to Alaska and played U Mass and Alaska not conf game. Also had two at BU this year. 2002-03 went out to play New Hampshire for two. AZSIOUX, you need to get your facts straight before you blow hot air.

If there is no talent in the State of Hockey, maybe North Dakota should stop recruiting there. Oh wait, I guess your coaching staff knows a little more about the game than you do.
