Dumb play by the Union guy to give the Gophers a powerplay and some life.

I know he kept the puck in but what a dumb play by Gostibehere to try to keep that in in that situation.

May not be playing horrible but I'd bet this is one of his worst games of the season.

How many times has Wilcox got caught out of position badly tonight?

Could see Lucia say there was interference first on that one and he was right but what a stupid decision by the Gopher player.

They have looked like a completely different team for most of this game and not in a good way.

Real nice tip play for Union to make it 5-3.

Huge opportunity for Union here, even though they're winning it almost feels like they need one here.

It is the same Hockey East one we had Thursday but they have been pretty inconsistent both ways.

How did this crew of refs get the championship they have been absolutely horrible both ways. Minnesota has slowly turned things around and it just feels like they will get one early in the 3rd. I know Gostibehere is good with the puck but do these guys not see the way he runs all over at times in the d zone and puts himself out of position?

Wow Union goalie finally comes up with a big save!

Was just about to post that too. Seems like their defense has tightened up some and they're starting to move the puck around pretty good.

Was definitely stupid and late but most refs won't make the call without the type of reaction the Union player gave.

It was in between the periods so I'm sure most were just trying to direct their anger elsewhere.

Union guy sells the dive well enough to get a call.

Looked at Twitter and saw the many Gopher fans tweeting Buccigross mad at him. Some good stuff asking him when he is gonna propose to Gostibehere, telling him to tell Barry to quit calling them Minny, and asking if they could be any more biased. I actually wouldn't be surprised if Buccigross had a Gostibehere jersey on under his suit.

Even my brother who is a Gopher fan thought that one would get called. Union can't complain too much there has definitely been enough weak calls to go around.

Does help when there isn't anyone really trying to stop them from doing it though.

Gophers look like they have no interest in playing defense at all, completely different team than that played the Sioux on Thursday.

Don't think Union can play this type of game against the Gophers were they just keep trading chances. Thought we would see them try to make it tough for them in the neutral zone like we did but they definitely haven't so far.

I'm not for either team tonight but I honestly think the Gophers will win and wouldn't really care if Minnesota does win it. Buccigross is almost unlistenable with the way he is all over Gostisbehere. Did they say these are the same refs that reffed our game? because they are already calling it completely different.

I think he probably just screwed up the year for Shaw and would really doubt if he came in this fall with how young he is and when he committed. Here is an article from Chris Dilks that mentions Shaw is only a high school Junior so he will have at least another year before joining UND. http://www.sbncollegehockey.com/college-hockey-recruiting-ncaa/2014/1/8/5290272/hayden-shaw-commits-to-north-dakota

Would be pretty surprised to see Shaw here next season. He is pretty young and has USHL eligibility left and UND will have 7 very solid defenseman on the roster. 2015 or 2016 would be much more likely for Shaw to come in but who knows.

I know Schloss has mentioned it on the live chat before but I'm not sure if I can remember it all. I know two are at Wisconsin and Providence comes to UND.

Hasn't been updated in a while Mantha is looking more like a 2015, not sure when Rowe, Voltin, and Pelnik will come in if they ever make it to campus. Only possible add to what I posted would be another forward Shane Gersich.
