I'll go to the football game, but you can guarantee that everyone will be ruining the outcome of the hockey game for you at the football game.

Gabe Bast with a goal and an assist in his first game back playing with Penticton. Kawaguchi up to 2nd in BCHL scoring. Mitchell Mattson finally starting to score for Bloomington.

Who won the shootout?

I agree, which makes it all the more ironic that it was at St. Cloud that he had his best game.

Yet you take the most minimal information and turn it into huge conference conspiracies. For someone that can turn more of nothing into something, it sure is strange that when there is an actual connection you totally dismiss it.

Not that it is any better behavior, but is this a post election protest or a Mitt Romney rally before the election?

Well if he takes off in the BCHL in the next few years and Blais leaves, maybe the doors open up for his recruitment again. I am sure that UND had their eye on his development, but it may have been a bit too early to pull the trigger.

Looks like Blais recruited Dixon Ward's son out of Penticton. He sure has a monopoly on Ex-Sioux players sons with Morelli, Zombo, Archibald, and now Ward.

I like how the NCAA won't allow NCAA games on campuses for hockey because of the fairness issue, yet it is all about who you know, perception, and money in FCS football.

Can he kick it into the end zone consistently?

Did he redshirt at Minnesota? How many years would he have left if he transferred?

Saturday ticket is gone. Still have a ticket for Friday.

To me, Blair Walsh with the issues he has had should be doing everything to show his teammates that he will do anything to gain their respect. Twice in the past 3 weeks Walsh was one of the last men back on a kickoff return, and he basically got out of the way to save himself. I would think that he would sacrifice himself to try to prevent a touchdown right after your team just scored. I lost a lot of respect for him at that point.

I have one ticket for each night vs. Denver in Section 302A Row G, right above the entryway in the upper deck on the end UND shoots twice. $40 per ticket.

If we announce a conference move, does that change McKinney's mind on where he plays college football?

So why did they give Jost a delay of game penalty that led to Minnesota's first goal on Saturday? Did he not put his stick down first? Don't think he was the second guy that got booted, was he? Don't see that penalty called often, especially considering the times the refs yap at the players to do something. It seemed like it took them forever to drop the puck all night.

How nice it would have been to have a great skater like him playing in Mariucci.

Yeah, Friday they looked a lot more tentative playing on the bigger ice surface and it showed. Saturday, there were also mistakes, but some of them were from being aggressive.

Not according to some. I think people just focus on their every play and see if they are making mistakes, but aren't quite as focused on the upperclassmen. You can pick out mistakes on everybody on the defensive units. I was kind of impressed in that they played more confident and weren't afraid if they made mistakes, especially on Saturday. It gives me hope that once they start gaining that confidence they can really take the next step.

Nothing, if we can take care of non-conference the rest of the way, but just how competitive it was last year from being in the tournament and being a spectator, nothing is a given, especially if there are numerous teams from our league with good non-conference marks.

True, but you will be playing tough teams every night, so splits are inevitable in a lot of them.

That's what I'm seeing. I know this isn't popular, but Minnesota is a good hockey team, and seem to have a little motivation.

Maybe Cam should try confront people going through his crease to see how they would call that.

What amazes me is how people didn't expect this team to struggle, and even more so on a large ice surface. UND likes to be aggressive and it looks like they were afraid to be because they were worried about coverage. They looked like they wanted to be more aggressive penalty killing but were slow to get back in the lanes. As bad as they handled the big ice surface, Minnesota only scored one goal without a man advantage. Hopefully they are more disciplined by not taking penalties tomorrow and if they do, in their coverage.

To tell you the truth, I think it would hurt the GPL faithful even worse if nobody responded, and their attempt at trolling failed miserably.
