It sure will be fun to watch St, Cloud and Duluth fight it out for home ice next weekend, as I don’t see Western imploding against Miami.

Heard Olson say they won tonight without 3 possible all league players in Gaber, Sanderson, and Frisch.

Wisconsin gets beat by their biggest rival 13-0 on the weekend. Granato probably won’t be sleeping easy as far as his job security.

Could this be why Andy Murray left, or was encouraged to leave?

Let’s not hold his brother responsible for his actions. Don’t know that it is something to tease someone about, especially if he turned out to be innocent. Would guess there is some information that would lead the coaches and University to suspend him though. Hate to see hockey tarnished with these type of crimes. Would guess that Mitchell Miller would have been a bigger distraction because of his past. You hope to recruit character guys, but you never truly know what type of individual you have, and to think he was their captain.

With all those guys they have pilfered from us, makes you wonder how we can ever beat them!

Plus they said Senden got married, or is getting married, so that could make a career move more likely.

But in the same token, we would have made room for Logan Cooley, so you should be able to make room for a difference maker that has already proven themselves. Cooley could likely be the same situation as a one and done, and will most likely have some growing to do on the defensive end, and it is no guarantee he will rip it up against older guys on the offensive end either. I get what you are saying, especially with using it as a stop gap, but if you find a guy that can score 15-20 goals and transform your power play and plug him into your lineup, you certainly have to take a look, as long as you have done your due diligence on whether he fits the culture and isn't going to be a polarizing person.

I'm guessing if Berry wants to bring Senden and Hain back, there wouldn't be a lot of room to dip in the portal and still bring in the guys in juniors that need to be here. Hopefully guys like McGlaughlin and Blake can make an immediate impact, as we could use some offensive punch to go along with the units we have coming back, although I am guessing that Kunz and Schmaltz will become more consistent next year.

So who do we bring in to replace Sanderson?

Schlossman with retweet showing Tri City traded Benoit for another older defenseman to help them win now. The other guy is a Michigan State recruit. May suggest Benoit may not be ready to come in next year. Interesting to see who might come in next year.

I'm talking about Jason McLean @Fargolawyer that responded to Schlossman's Olympic post.

Hope that guy isn't really a lawyer. Would hate to have someone like that as my lawyer with such tunnel vision and lack of common sense.

Yes, them and volleyball.

I love Duluth, but especially in the fall. It seems like forever since we faced them in Duluth in the fall, it seems like it is always in the second half when the weather can be iffy. I think the league should rotate when you play teams if possible, even if you can only do it every 4 years. I realize schedules can become issues with events like Omaha has early in the year, but would love to go up the North Shore of Duluth before Thanksgiving. Of course Duluth probably likes to keep our fans out of the arena, so I’m sure the blizzard season is fine with them.

So, you're saying we can put him out there to play boot hockey... I read ya!

The minute our season ends, Sanderson will be on his way to Ottawa. We are lucky to get a partial second year out of him. Hopefully we can make a run and have some more memories before he takes his game to the next level.

Mark is on Wild live right now. Not good enough for college hockey, much less pro.

Textbook interference, Rich should have figured that out too. They needed to call it because they had numbers going the other way.

Gino Parrish, not Mark.

How can you be an announcer and not have any clue about the updated rules since you played the game.

Gino Parrish is as big of a homer as Mark Parrish was, both of them with oohs and aahs. Surprised Jim Rich didn’t correct him when he said he was surprised nobody was kicked out of the faceoff circle, unless he hasn’t been paying attention either.

This is what completely baffles me, people go ballistic every year and say we have no talent, then go overboard the other way when we are on a winning streak. We have the same talent we had earlier this year, in fact with injuries, even less, but now we are going to be world beaters?

Forgive me for not taking much stock in your predictions when you had us losing 90% of our games after the Western series, missing out on home ice, and not making the NCAA tournament. Hope you are right this time around though.
