QU! Another goal off the back of UM goalie. 3-2

Clean breakaway.

And now tied.

Man, QU is doing everything except scoring. QU is relentless on the forecheck and swarming UM in the neutral zone.

I put the * there!

Oh man, QU almost scores at the buzzer. That would have been a killer.

UM has the talent to play with & beat UMN if they advance. QU has the experience to beat them with all their skilled 5th year guys. And they're much more disciplined than BU. Hopefully one of these teams can do it.

Long way to go in this one. But...if a QU/UMN title game happens, UND would have beaten* both title game teams. That's crazy from such an inconsistent UND team this year. Shows that they had potential to beat anyone, but they also had potential to lose to anyone.

Not true, there were fireworks.

Man, one good season from the B10 and everything changes.

Yep. Here's hoping that they lose 8-9 of their best players over the next few weeks. That number is pretty realistic too.

Let's hope this title game goes about the same as the 2014 title game went for UMN.

Yeah for sure.

Three straight PP to the Goofs, they're bound to score eventually.

A few of these have been a little weak. They could have called UMN for a trip on the initial BU tripping penalty too.

BU is wanting to hand this game to UMN with all these penalties.

Another Gopher pp. 5x3

That looked like it could have been a tripping on both teams in that one sequence.

Yes

BU PPG

I’m being greedy, but I’m hoping for two of those three. Especially if Strathmann plays another year of jr like has been hinted.

I like the Albrecht move. It’s better to keep him as a depth player rather than add a similar depth player from the portal. Probably sits better with the team as well since he’s a well liked teammate. The team can still add a skilled forward from the portal to round out the forward group.

Expected Roster as of 4/6/23 - Going by a somewhat typical 26-man roster (15 F / 8 D / 3 G): Forwards (14) Fr - Emerson / Perron So - Blake / James / McLaughlin / Strinden / Montgomery (RS) Jr - Schmaltz / Kunz / Berg Sr - Gaber / Jamernik / Ness Gr - Albrecht Defense (6) Fr - Benoit / Komzak / Wiebe / Livanavage / Strathmann Gr - Pyke Goalies (3) Fr - Hedquist So - Johnson Sr - Persson Portal and/or Recruit F - Need one D - Need two I'd guess that we'll hear more news about portal additions soon.

We do. They’re just not old enough yet.
