With prick fans like Mariucci on this site representing Minnesota, I hope Bruce McLeod asks Don Lucia for it back while still on the ice for the Broadmoor Trophy presentation!

Speaking of jerseys, does anyone have any old photos of the 1950's and 1960's jerseys? I recently customized some throwbacks and am curious to see how they stack up against the originals...

I watched Bemidji and Minny again tonight, siouxvikes. The game was 2-1 late in the second and Goldy picked up a cheap late one. Even Gopher homer announcers pointed out that Minnesota was dominated in the 2nd period, yet still somehow led by 2. In the 3rd, the Beavers had SEVERAL great chances but Wilcox made some great saves. Minny picked up two cheapies late in the game to make the final 5-1. Per the announcing crew - Bemidji gave Minnesota all it could handle this weekend and they expect two tough games next weekend. But you go ahead and just look at your iphone app CHN that says '5-1 Gophers' and call it a blowout...

So the MacNaughton Cup can't make an appearance last night in Madison...but it can be shipped to Bemidji tonight 'just in case'?

Sioux playing for a banner right now...SCSU FAIL!

Michigan sweeps Northern Michigan in CCHA...Bowling Green and LSSU going to a third game...

Badgers still up 2-1 with 1230 to play...4-1 Minnesota over Bemidji State...looks like Thursday night game for the Sioux assuming first round playoff victory...

Isn't that the truth!

The Sioux aren't locked in at all. A UND win and a Gopher los or tie means #2 seed for the Sioux. A Gopher win means Minny gets the 2 seed. I thiught the scenarios had been beaten to death already but apparently not.

The Black Bears are making a late-season push...and trying to save Tim Whitehead's job!

Wilbur, I think he means US!

I don't blame the Hermantown coach for going ballistic on the official afterward. His player was practically horse-collared seconds prior to the GWG being scored.

I can't seem to find information on the 'private school' tournament...am I looking in the wrong place?

Now THAT'S funny.

Nah, the splits are unacceptable. Anything less than a win and a tie on the road against DU and Minnesota is a total fail.

Banner 8 would still need an asterisk and the comment 'Yea, 8th NCAA title, but we tied Bemidji State at home on Senior Night'.

Yea! A quality coach would have lines all set and wouldn't have lost ANY games in the last month, right?

Anybody still in contention needed a Badger sweep to have a chance at a tie for the regular season title. All SCSU needs tonight is a tie to clinch the title outright. A loss opens up the door for UND, MN, or both to claim a share of the crown.

No. Denver has 31 points. St Cloud has 37.

I'm in 102 as well.

When did private schools in MN have their own hockey tournament? In ND, Dickinson Trinity dropped to Class B about 15 years ago. In a sport where a school might make the state boys basketball tournament once every 20 years, Trinity has now made something like 9 of the last 13 state tournament appearances. I hate that school with a passion.

If you think Bemidji puked that game away last night, it's only because the official decided to stick his finger down their collective throats with about 6:00 in the game. The penalty call directly affected the outcome. I saw very few stretches where Minnesota actually controlled the play and tempo. BTW...9 of Bjugstad's 19 goals are on the PP. I think Bemidji gives Goldy another tough game tonight.

That's becoming a regular habit resulting in Gopher goals...it happened last week as well on Saturday night against Denver.

Great effort by Bemidji tonite. That penalty and resulting PPG with 5 mins left was a nice present.

Beavers buzzing all over...wait...can I say that?
