if you are going to slay the dragon you need to take advantage of these pp opportunities. look for minny to get a goal here soon and kill whatever little mo yale had.

so far I am correct and yale can't hang with the gophers. can't even get it out of their own zone.

bingo, that is what scares me today. on paper we should win 4-1, 5-1 or something like that. history this season tells me it will be 3-2, 2-1.

maybe we can hope gophers players are still tired from their world junior experiences the past couple of years

hey I already called it gophs 7-2 earlier this week. however, I do truly think this is what it will end up being. all this talk about anyone beating anyone this tournament is hogwash when it comes to this game. this as as close to a gimmee as their is. and I will be looking forward to that beer Goon will owe me after this one.

if you'll have computer access tomorrow afternoon I'm guessing USCHO will have a live chat during the game as well.

Goon, we may have to have a talk here pretty soon. you are betting way too many beers, I'm afraid you may have a problem.

that tends to be the general feeling amongst people.

we don't need an X factor in goal, we just need someone who will play solid and not give up the soft goal. I say whoever starts tomorrow if they give up a softie-yank 'em.

in my wildest dreams I just can see yale beating minnesota. I think they can keep it close and maybe lose 4-3 or something like that but they won't beat minnesota.

sounds like mankato and st. cloud shared a plane as well, cost saving moves by the ncaa? guess that explains putting more than one wcha team in a bracket-they can share planes. except for und and minny.

although that didn't work out too well for us last year.

unless you are BCS type school any move to FBS would be silly. playing for a trip to the bic pen bowl in billings, montana versus playing for an actual championship-should be no debate.

don't they get charters? I thought und flew chartered flights to ncaa tournament events?

that just confirms there are no cupcakes, the last four weeks, miami, duluth st cloud and western michigan. better have our big boy pants on come february.

usually when I have gone to regionals the three game package has roughly been $75-$80.

same could be said of denver in 2004, mich state in 2007, bc in 2008 and duluth in 2011.

do you have the highlights of the 2013 national championship game with und and miami?

an interesting stat about this regional is that all four teams are coming into it with a loss in their last game. none of the other three regionals can say the same. let's create the momentum and let it carry us to pittsburgh.

let's not worry about that for a few more weeks.

just how fitting would it be for him to get THE goal that sends us all into a frenzy on that saturday in pittsburgh.

and andy murray is a great ambassador for college hockey, para phrasing here "if he would have come into my office and told me I want to come back for my fourth year I would have told him no". typical nhl guy.

that has been a problem this year. when they try and get too fancy they struggle, when they play smart good things happen.

rocco with the hat trick on friday night.

I'd be absolutely shocked if anyone other than OD is on the top line come friday. although I would like to see: markmac-knight-kristo rowney-parks-rocco od-mitchmac-gaarder pattyn-st. clair-drake.
