FIRE HELMET GUY #26

I didn't think Lucia was unprofessional in how he said it, so I don't think the league should come down too hard on him, he was just stating the obvious. I don't condone the way Schack did what he did but it was nice to see him stick up for a teammate. As far as Jutting goes, good for Lucia. People may think Lucia complains alot but I don't think anyone complains and whines about EVERY LITTLE thing like Jutting does. As far as these CFB calls are going, maybe they need to start giving an extra game suspension for some of these calls. Saccetti's last night was legit but Stoa's was pretty ridiculous.

Was he taunting them after the 5 on 3? I know he was sarcastically applauding them for some of the CFB penalties they got. I thought maybe he got sick of Juttings whining.

2 of them within a matter of 2 minutes. Score is 2-0 Mavs. 10 to go in 2nd. Lucia lipjacking with the Maverick bench even.

I seriously had to check my DVD to make sure I wasn't watching Slapshot here a few minutes ago. I don't know what the hell has gotten into this team.

Saccetti gone.....CFB. WOW, I think there needs to be even stiffer penalties for these CFB calls. Getting booted the rest of the game is one thing, maybe they need to be out for the following game as well. Stoa gone now too....CFB. WOW, what the hell is going on with these guys.

Yeah, it's bad. You know they started the year doing what they said they were going to do and called everything. But eventually it just went to the way it's always been. As it's been said, it is going to take someone getting SERIOUSLY injured (another Bina incident for example) for them to change.....and thats a shame. You know I'm sure there have been plenty of people that have e-mailed, called the WCHA and NCAA, they must be aware of it but they just choose to sweep it under the rug and ignore the problem. Papa Shep is always at a game over the weekends as well and must see this......he was probably in Mankato last night with Baby Shep there.

God Anderson is BAD! He missed an obvious bowtie crosscheck by Hoeffel right at the beginning of the game that happened right in front of him.

Was a pretty bold comment on Lucia's part! Kind of ripped on the league saying that if they are not going to start enforcing the rules then he would start recruiting physical type players.

Yeah, he must have Googled the story and he said something along of lines of "this is from Goon's World." Being totally serious. Someone else must have heard it if they were listening to Danny B. on KFAN.......

Goon's Blog mentioned on Barreiro's show regarding this story as well. GOON you're FAMOUS!!!!!

She's newer this year....but she makes it worth catching the FSN pre-game show. ALMOST makes up for having to put up with Gorg.............ALMOST!

I just don't get it. People complain about the deals put up on the screen with the quotes next to Kangas and whine about it! I don't think the players even notice them, it's more for the fans which in turn gets them pumped up. Even the ones last year with the girl in the Gopher jersey in the penalty box....that was genius, but people complained about that as well. Like I put on Romans blog, this whole world is becoming pussyfied!!!!!

Roman just put another thread up on an e-mail sent in. I'm not gonna put he link up because I don't want to get blamed but I have a feeling this thread is going to be good for about another 5 pages now.

I'm sure he didn't mean hatred as in he wants to blow up the whole school, it's a rivalry. You could ask plenty of UND players and I'm sure they would say they hate Minnesota.

They went to the UNO tourney in fall of '02 as well. You were down there, weren't you Saagard? The night of the famous "bachelorette party"?

Lucia is only a junior, there will be 2 series next season with the Gophers and Sioux. I'm pretty sure the Gophers-Sioux series next season at Grand Forks is in October.

Barrairo (sp?) earlier in the show was talking about the series too and how bad it was for the Gophers. His sidekick said it wasn't fair because the Sioux are full of 23 year old Canadians. Barrairo argued with all the Minnesota talent it should have equaled out. That was pretty funny. Not trying to start an argument here, just what I heard on the radio. I didn't even think Barrairo talked hockey most of the time!

Rumor has it he was at practice today, can't imagine it was a real good day for him talking to the team.

I think more would have been said had we split or anything else, but after the royal ass-whopping we got there is not a whole lot to squak about over there.

Thanks, we did....had a great time as usual, well except for the games I guess. Got to have a Grinder again......always a good thing!

That was one of the big things I noticed Saturday especially...... my head was hung low and shaking angrily most of the game Friday to notice. I mentioned to my buddy that the Gophers had no good quality shots getting to the net much on Saturday night.

Congrats on a big time sweep this weekend. Hard to believe the Gophers could not show up for a series like this. The Sioux absolutely DOMINATED every aspect of the games this weekend. Well at least the bars were still a great time!

Black marker, Circle and line through the Sioux logo....just the opposite for Sioux fans, circle and line through Gopher logo....problem solved.

HMMMMM, I have no idea who that is supposed to be. Didn't get to hear much of the show today but I'm wondering if Nate Miller is going to be there or something? Other then that I'm not sure who it would be. Next to PA and JG Miller would be a great hockey mind.

No. Don't see much point of it really, with no Dubay there the talk will pretty much be all Vikings and Timberwolves.....and I could do without both. I don't need to hear PA say how great the Vikes are and the producer JG kissing PA's arse for 3 hours.
