farce poobah

Already got tix. I'd say better than 50-50 we're in Minneapolis. And instead of 2003/Ferris State, I'm thinking more like 2000 where the Badgers lost and the Gophers watched from the stands.

One great big frickin love fest. Hextall gets two weeks to develop and test special Valentine's Day material. Kozek gets a little time to rest up. Mankato gets some time to heal also....

I might change my mind to favor a BTHC if - and this is key - they took the senior refereeing staff with them.

How big is that season-ending series in Madison looking?

Toews nets two so far tonight. http://www.channelsurfing.net/# Hawks broadcasters - talking about Toews - "when your most talented players are your hardest workers ..."

OR ... whether to go to the DECC and root for the Dogs or sleep.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3-2 FINAL :20 left in OT

Especially if they keep taking dumb penalties.

WOO!!! U-A-squared! U-A-squared! U-A-squared!

Boarding minor.

4 left 4-2

Down to 7 left. still 4-2. Other than Lasch, who's been really good, nobody for SCSU has gotten it going in the 3rd. We just have to keep skating for the rest of the game.

From a PWR viewpoint, Wisconsin since we play them four times and UMD only twice. From a MacNaughton view, UMD since WI is in a virtual first place.

Yes

No, the opposite. Think of it was "whoever we play the most games against" is who we want to win. Since UND has 4 games vs MSU and 2 vs MN, it helps us if MSU wins.

For those interested, there's a live webcast of the Badger-Bulldog game: http://www.uwbadgers.com/audio_video/

Lasch with a superb steal, rush, shot. Miller gets a raspberry there. 2-1 Sioux.

Excellent PK. Very nice. : 05 left, 3:47 period, still 2-0.

THAT is one of the best wrist shots in the world. I mean really. Put that shot with the legs of Clutterbuck and you've got a 50-goal scorer.

This would be the difference between Comley and Michigan State and Lucia and the UofM. Its going to take the higher-ups making it clear that giving the entire university a black eye will not be tolerated.

Mankato's next opponent is UND, so I'm cheering for a great big effin bench clearing fighting in the tunnels everybody suspended including the waterboys brawl.

Let's hope the coaching staff reminds the team its a Saturday night and its a road game.

"So that's why Tony Lucia isn't in the lineup."

Thanks for your comments, some of which I agree with. And when Gopher fans repeal their double standards of things like "there's no place for this in hockey" and "we only ever respond we never start it", to name just a few, then we're on common ground. Until then, good luck tonight. And I really hope nobody gets hurt; MSU vs MN is a powdeg keg right now.
