Big A HG

With those weak teams, they are effective in two categories....RPI and COp.

Travis Zajac has moved to #5 in the NHL for best plus/minus rating at +28. The leader, Blake Wheeler nonetheless, is at +33.

Joe isn't going to cruise all around the ice, but he's a heck of a passer when he's playing confident. He has the best long outlet pass on the team.

My Dell is breaking.

Wow, awesome...keep it coming!

I've been singing in that one so long my throat is getting sore.

Good thing the Gophers are a tough, gritty team to keep softening up these teams before we play 'em...

You and I are all that sing in the choir I think...

Sadly, it's the other way around...

No, I'm just right, and you can't prove me wrong.

Games like tonight are horrible to go to. Wisconsin is filled with those "old codgers" that have been going to games just as long, yet their whole arena sounds like a student section. There's no need to try and justify it, because it's just the flat-out truth that their old codgers don't act like they're going to die in the coming weeks. There's plenty of people who aren't "old codgers" that could very well make up for the lack of energy, but fail to do so as well.

Brian had 27 points as a freshman defenseman, yet was HORRIBLE.

I thought Lee was better than everyone gave him credit for. He made a few mistakes, but everyone does. Genoway makes more mistakes than anyone, in my opinion, but since he makes up for it with some great plays, people love him.

Exactly...It's not Ralph Engelstad Libary, it's Ralph Engelstad Arena, Home of the FIGHTING SIOUX.

No one gave him a chance to develop. People assume freshman defensemen are going to come in and tear it up just because they are 1st round draft picks. Not gonna happen. I wish Nick Mattson the best of luck coming here....he's the next "Brian Lee" I have a feeling.

I wouldn't say that at all....Wisconsin fans are as dedicated and loyal as they come and care as much about the game as any of the nursing home residents that attend the Ralph each weekend.

Really, I couldn't tell from across the rink, I thought it was Derrick, my bad.

It's Brian Lee with the wrong picture...it's been wrong for a long time on ESPN.com.

It was nice to see him standing on his own with a cast in the tunnel after the game. Hope all turns out better than it looked. Derrick is the man (he's from Wisconsin! How can he not be???)

2007 or 2008.

I swore somewhere someone mentioned you were a she...haha. Well, quit acting like one, you were sure convincing!

Man, I hope I don't jinx anything, but here goes.... Minnesota has had a few "losing streaks" in history. Here are the longest... 1) 9 game losing streak in 1997 2) 4 game losing streak in 2000 (did it twice) 3) 4 game losing streak until tonight So, if memory serves me correctly, and I'm pretty sure it does , each year the Gophers have a four game losing streak or longer, the Sioux took home some April hardware...

I'm pretty sure it's a she. You can tell because she doesn't think before she speaks... Hi ladies!

Watching the replay of the UM/UAA game, Woog made a pretty sharp comment. With less than 2 minutes gone in the first, Christianson (goalie, UAA) made a great save and Woog said it was a game-saver.....and that it was!
