Rau yapping at official...Gopher players clearly showing frustration...

I've watched him all season...park and wait for someone to get him the puck for the one-timer on the PP...

Yale player in the slot with a Gopher hanging all over him...sure looked like official tried to swallow whistle on that one before finally making a call...

Go figure...underdog scores...Gopher PP 5 seconds later...

Yale scores! Yale scores!

Siouxman...what's the attendance?

Don Lucia translation of Adam Wilcox play: He's no Adam Hauser.

FYP.

Crowd estimate? 750?

What a total goon. Helgeson should be playing for the Charlestown Chiefs.

And in an era where schools are looking at cutting programs, the B10 is suddenly going to look at men's AND women's hockey EXPANSION? How can all six of these hockey programs all be competitive? Someone's got to fish first...but someone's still going to finish sixth...

That was my point entirely...

So he says she's looking like Kim these days?

It has potential...however, unless the conference can find some more schools willing to field hockey teams, I think the 6-team conference is a real downer. Maryland and Rutgers? REALLY? I don't see them or Indiana, Northwestern, Nebraska, or anyone else jumping on the hockey bandwagon anytime soon.

LOL...something 98% of B10 football, basketball, and hockey players most likely couldn't care less about...

Good information to know...I'm about 40 minutes away from Dickinson...keep me posted.

I appreciate the tip...will see if I can work out logistics and check it out.

Who knew that Dickinson would be THE place to be today, eh BigChief?

I heard this same song and dance in 1998 when Ohio State made the Frozen Four by upsetting Michigan State in the Yost regional. 15 years and no Frozen Four appearances since, I continue to hear all about Ohio State's 'potential'. As for the school itself, I lost ALL respect for it after Jim Tressel was finally exposed to be a complete fraud. And the NCAA turns a blind eye because it doesn't want to come down too hard on one of its cash cows...

Michigan State's program is a complete mess right now...Wisconsin's late-season run is all fine and dandy but attendance there is down and fans do not especially care for the current style of play...Penn State's football sanctions are most certainly going to affect hockey...we've discussed OSU at-length already...which leaves Minnesota and Michigan as the cream of the crop. I predict exactly ONE NCAA hockey bid next season...unless the playoff winner is someone not named Minnesota.

And in 2010, Buckeye men's hockey generated less than $939,000 of revenue...but expenditures came to almost $2.6 million. How much more do you think Buckeye U can throw away before the men's hockey team turns a $20 net profit? You seem to have a fondness for Ohio State...don't you post on buckeyesports.com as 86BuckeyeGuy? JK.

If you think Urban Meyer will allow one dime to go towards developing or improving men's ice hockey over football, well, you're just wrong.

Wrong on both counts here Wilbur. The Gopher hockey team is still a niche sport here...media and fans give far more coverage to basketball and football than hockey.

It's been 2.5 years since I have been back here...I wasn't aware that Happy Joe's had closed or that there was a 'new' Sax Motors...

I will back you all the way on this one Wilbur. Folks who think OSU hockey will draw 7,000-10,000 per game at home next year are sadly mistaken.
