Hey glad you're OK, I thought you dropped off the earth or something.
I'll be at the game tonight, but I think I'll pas on tomorrow. Probably will watch it somewhere downtown St. Paul before the Wild game.

DHG talks tough, but once you call him out, he blocks you on Twitter. Real tough.
-
Also, far too busy getting my heart broken by Gopher hoops. Best thing about that dumpster fire last night? If we lay an egg tonight, I can't get any more mad than I currently am. My sports psyche is ruined this week, things can only get better (that's a lie, I'll rage if we get smoked)
-
Yeah, another peach.
FHG26 and gopherz are 2 of the better Goof posters here...I wonder where gopherz is, he usually chimes in a little this week?
Too busy tweeting with Goon and texting AZSIOUX to get my fix
-
What does that say for your squad?? UND's depth at forward is overall better than UM.
UND has more depth at forward? Even though Minnesota is #1 in scoring this year? Keep dreaming.
-
Does anyone have 2 GA tickets for Saturday that work in student section like the ones ticketmaster had for the Friday game?
If so, and you want 2 actual seats, PM me.
-
It's gopherz, we haven't heard from her in a longggg time!
Since when was I a "her"?
Split. Friday win when I'm in the student section, Saturday get killed and I don't recall what happened.
-
FYI as of right now tickets are still available for Fridays game on ticketmaster.com
UND student section.
Thanks, I'd rather sit student section so just scooped a few up....anyone interested in 2 upper bowls for Friday now?
-
I hope you know that even the worst seats in the house for Vikings/Packers are about double the going price of any Gopher/Sioux games...I'd CONSIDER giving my 2 lower deck sideliens for Vikings/Packers for 4 Gophers/Sioux, and only if they were awesome seats.
-
Unless I'm seeing something wrong, he only has next weekend's "win 2" as the max for the Gophers, where as he has the Badgers played out all year.
-
Funny timing, UND's own PWR situation is so boring that I just wrote a blog post on UW's this morning -- Minnesota and Wisconsin tournament watch
I initially only focused on this weekend, but just added a chart for all four remaining regular season games. Looks like UW really needs to win 3 to stay in a holding pattern, while sweeping would put them in the driver's seat. From the former position, a strong showing in the play-in round and tournament would probably be required to climb. From the latter, a respectable play-in and early exit would likely suffice. That will all become much more certain once the matchups are determined.
Would you mind putting a Gopher one up for the rest of the year as well?
-
We have 1 lower for tonight, just want what we paid. Message me and I'll get right back to you, I can meet you at the game or whatever works
-
We ended up with more tickets than necessary...again
Have a lower bowl single, section 112 row O, best offer by tonight takes it. I'm in Fargo all day today and until 1 tomorrow, then heading up to Grand Forks and could meet you up there, that'd be easiest. Reply on here or PM me.
-
The week is finally here.
SWEEP
-
So much for texting me that you weren't coming....mwhahaha
-
Looks like I don't have all those friends that I thought I had. Family too.
Anyway, I likely have two lower bowl singles for FRIDAY, and anywhere from 2-4 lower bowl singles for SATURDAY,
for the Gopher series.
TicketBastard receipt is just shy of $60 per ticket. Yikes! This, of course, is my price.
I figure I can make fifty seven cents or so on each.
PM me if interested. No ReSellers Please. Fans planning to put their arses in the seats only.
Sent you a PM

I'll total this from last week and get my picks in after work....
From the looks of it, I had a rough week. Still pissed about that pick of the tie for you on the Saturday Gopher game, got hosed there, 3 point swing.

As always, anyones commentary on my picks is welcome. I'm sure I will get ripped as usual.
On to next week's games....5 WCHA series on the schedule.
Colorado College vs. Denver
Looks like a big week of rivalry games if you ask me....after watching the disaster that CC put on the ice this past week and catching a few glimpses of the UND/DU series, it's hard for me to think that CC will get it done. Maybe they win at home on Saturday? Doubt it. They are horrible defensively and can't seem to hit the net. One positive for CC is their power play, which was about all they had going for them against the Gophers
Bemidji @ SCSU
Welcome to the WCHA, Bemidji, would you win a conference game? Picking SCSU is like trying to predict what Brett Favre is going to hurt next...I think this is going to be a case of having to pick against them until they prove me wrong.
Becky @ Gophers
Screw you, Becky BADger...You beat Michigan Tech twice, big deal. Even the lowly Gophers managed a road sweep last year. To make up for the brutal slaughter that was the football game 3 weeks back, a Gopher sweep is in the making. If tDon trots Kangas out there I think the mental meltdown will continue and we will get a loss. That being said, I see Patterson getting a few starts again this weekend, or at least Friday to set the tone. As usual, I will pick a Gophers sweep, but I actually think it's a possibility. Time to build on last weekend's goal fest and put double digit goals on Becky for the weekend.
UMD @ Sioux
Uhhh, I have no clue what is going to happen here...either team could sweep and it would come as zero surprise to me. I still think the Sioux are one of the more talented teams in the country....except in net. UMD has been putting the puck in the net at will and I think that may be a bad combination for your Sioux. I might be leaning towards a split here, but we will see.
Kato @ UNO
I am still bitter that those a-holes from UNO swept the Gophers. That being said, Blais is legit and even though I don't think they are at all talented, they will be competitive all year. I will likely continue my trend of picking Kato on Fridays, and then letting them choke on Saturday.
On to my picks....
Friday
Colorado College @ Denver
Bemidji @ SCSU
becky BADger @ GOPHERS
UMD @ Sioux
Kato @ UNO
Saturday
Denver @ Colorado College
Bemidji @ SCSU
becky BADger @ GOPHERS
UMD @ Sioux
Kato @ UNO
Final thoughts: Picked a DU/CC split for god knows why, I think DU sweep more likely. Bemidji has to win a game before I ever pick them. Screw Becky. If this were the 2nd half of the season I'd pick a Sioux sweep. I don't like John Hill. That is all.
Good luck to you AZSIOUX, as well as anyone else who wants to make picks.

I believe it died off at about the same time as the Gopher's team did.
Hah, come on now....
Banter about next week's series' for next week up in a few minutes
-
After slowly dying off last year for whatever reason, the GOPHERZ vs. AZSIOUX challenge is back for year 3.
As always, everyone is more than welcome to participate and I can try to keep week by week standings. 2 points for correctly picking a tie, 1 point for correctly picking the winner of each game. WCHA Matchups only.
