He'll get to play deep in the offensive like he always wants to do when he's suppose to play defense. Maybe he won't be as much of a liability now. Hah.

When have the Gophers ever not gotten a call their way, Slap Shot? Either way, the hit is a tough call to make. Budish definitely sold the hit but you know most players in hockey are doing that these days to make sure something gets called. Every team is guilty of having a player do it. Edit: Made correction, thanks sioux rube.

Posting this here cause it cracks me up every time. Go Rocco! Go Team USA!

@MissSioux: Gopher fans are notorious for making comments like that after not getting a player they wanted. It's amazing how some of them act when a player they want commits elsewhere. Talk about a coping mechanism. You don't see UND fans belittling recruits that pick Minnesota over UND.

Big, big win. Nice to get 3 of 4 points especially against the likes of Denver. Overall, a good weekend for UND. Bring on the Techies. Take them out and go into Christmas break on a good note.

@Siouxforeverbaby: 59 seconds into OT according to Hajdu. I was casually watching a TV while streaming the webcast on my laptop. Picked the right time to look back at what was going on in the game to catch the game tying goal and OT goal! While there is a lot of negativity about this teams play so far this year one positive it seems is that they seem to be really good in winning in overtime.

Is it sad that I regularly check this thread to see if MissSioux has posted anything in here since she always has something newsworthy?

Sucks that there will be a four year gap of not playing but there will be chances of meeting in the NCAA tournament. When the rivalry does resume though...that first and second meetings are gonna be big.

UMD deserved much better results than what they got this weekend. UND is very and I mean very lucky to get away with 3 points. With that said, hell of weekend for Kristo and MacMillan. I think Hakstol has possibly found the 3rd man to pair with Kristo and Knight.

I like the changes Hak made for tonight. Hopefully it's sparks things for the team. Also glad he finally swapped Panzarella in for Gleason. Gleason needs the time off. He's a great player but he's been playing downright awful for us since the start of this season. His attempt at trying to be the second coming of Chay Genoway has been an utter failure. Play defense Joe and chip in on offense when it is safe to do so instead of being the risk on the ice like you have been.

Hurley probably hasn't shown any interest in UND. He seems to be more interested in playing for a Big Ten or Hockey East school. Nothing new on Gersich, he's got rodent written all over him.

Sandbagging for the dogs already? I can't see UND pull off a sweep with how their Saturday night effort has been. Not only that but as others have said...just don't see UMD dropping 4 games in a row.

Not during the game since I don't think it was caught by the referee since he was skating away when Hak did it. Coincidentally, the referee that Hakstol flipped off was Don Adam I believe.

And the guy is going to be the head of the officials for the NCHC? Lolwat?

Pretty disappointing to lose out on him. Can't blame him though, BC is a hell of a program that has been enjoying continued success.

Thanks for sharing those wallpapers Big A HG. They look pretty darn slick on my MacBook Air.

Finally had to put Hammer and Koberinski on mute. It's absolutely brutal listening to them. Only thing the midco crew has going for them is Katie Hale. Hammer doesn't know hockey. Let him do football and let's get someone who does know hockey. Sweeney, Hennessy(sp?) p Anyone with hockey knowledge would probably be better.

I think you understood what bcblues meant. I catch myself saying "we" as well when talking about the team. Hell, had to edit one of my recent posts cause I was saying "we" as well.

No doubt, BU is a very good team. No question about it. But losing the game the way they did is very disappointing especially since they were playing pretty well until the last bit of the 3rd. Frustrating. I am sure the team is feeling just the same.

Saturday woes continue. Don't care how early in this season is, it is very disappointing. UND turtled and BU made them pay for it.

Atrocious defensive play in our end in the 1st period. That needs to be corrected. Lucky we are only down by one.

Just take a look at GPL. When it was first assumed that UND/UMTC wouldn't be playing again for a while many fans acted like it was nothing. Saying "good riddance" and used the "we don't need them as much as they need us" line. With that said, GPLers are the more tolerable of the Gopher fan variety but comments posted over their can get to be just as asinine as ones made here.

Poles? We're talking about...poles?!?

Indeed, he has Maroon & Gold written all over him considering family ties to the Gopher program.

I like this. Penrose Cup sounds legit.
