If James and Moore get called for that, then Luedkte should get called for throwing Hain into the end boards way after the play. I’m unhappy.

That’s a highlight reel goal. also, we used Gaber as a decoy very nicely.

Also, MSU-Mankato feeling the heat of needing to win tomorrow night.

Colgate with the OT winner over Q. 2-1 final in second OT

Nothing apparent . Seems like an aggravation of previous injury. certainly nothing CC did

Well, we can cross Devon Levi off the list of potential portal goalies. https://www.nhl.com/sabres/news/buffalo-sabres-sign-goaltender-devon-levi-entry-level-contract/c-342360340 Count me as one who thinks his (sweet-looking) stats are inflated playing against weak competition. In three career games vs western teams (AZ St and Western Michigan), 12 GA on 119 shots. .899 save pct. GAA abt 4.

POTUS picked UA …

Corners at the Kohl Center are proportioned similarly to regulation-sized rinks. But Mariucci's distinctive square corners are part of why it looks so large.

Good Stuff. Adding just one other: St Cloud on Regulation Ice: 6-7-1. St Cloud on Big Ice: 16-5-2.

Its also not good when your second-leading scorer is minus on the season. Oh wait .... nvm pretend i didn't say that.

Yes heads up for anyone coming down Thursday. Friday forecast is just light snow.

Clearly, the Huskies realized the strategic importance of Siouxsports.com to UND hockey success, and hired the Chinese to bring it down. Better luck next time.

Yes

For anyone going to cheer for CC at game 1 Friday, the Xcel / ticket####er website has the game starting at 4:30. Today's announcement from NCHC has that game starting at 4:00. Don't be late or you'll miss CC's first two goals.

Guessing here ... as the lower seed we would shoot where the visiting team shoots twice. Just a guess though.

Meanwhile In Minneapolis, they are rooting for UND to win out so they don’t have to play Holy Cross in North Dakota again.

Game on ESPN Plus ... ... for hockey addicts.

Certainly, the stripes are having a worse game than either team.

Good job by Senden to create the penalty call.

Much of their success this year comes from using an almost-25 year old goalie. Close turns 25 in May. #overageCanadiansarehowtheywin

Lot of passes to an area, with a UND guy not where the pass went. Is that the fault of the passer, the receiver, or both? Either way, it looks like a team that doesn't like each other. Same thing on coverages. Two guys cover one UNO player, which leaves someone all by himself. They only scored on one of those tonight. Weakest playoff game performance since ... lets say 1999. But after 1999, the coaches made a bunch of changes to fix problems, and look at what they did in 2000. I hope that happens this year.

Nothing wrong with women's hockey that can't be fixed with more fireworks.

We only made the attorneys after cutting the program.

Simple Math © I think they've earned the invite. (Barring a bunch of conference tournament upsets.) The PWR changes over the last 20 years have made it tougher for a team playing a really weak schedule to get in over a team playing in the top conferences. Factoid of the day: Alaska's SOS is #37 according to CHN's Power Ratings (aka Krach). Pretty comparable to #31 Harvard. Oh - Quinnipiac is at #41. Anyone whining about Alaska being ranked too high by Simple Math needs to also justify why Harvard gets in. Just sayin'. PS also, Alaska played just 13 home games & 21 road. That's a lot of miles, and a lot of wear and tear.

Steve Rohlik would be top of list. Former UW captain. as to whether they can offer enough money to get him out of Ohio State, maybe not.
