No surprise there.

You mean like this fan? or a more complimentary one like this fan?

Agreed.

I can see where this thread is going... Let's stop this Minnesota bashing. We won the game! Let's celebrate that instead of bashing Minnesota. The more we bash them, the more we incite trolls to come over here and give us all headaches. Sure we've had our run ins and bad experiences with fans from many different teams, including Minnesota, but hey.... WE WON!!! Who cares about Minnesota fans!!!!

I agree that Lee looked beat out there especially in the third period. Oshie had his down game last night though. He was flying all over the place. Defense: Jones and Smaby had GREAT nights. Finley recovered well after a stupid first period. Radke, god I wish he would start making something happen. He did register an assist on the night but other than that he was pretty quiet. Chorney looked tired but not so much as Lee. Still, even when tired, Lee looked pretty sound defensively. I hate to be an opposing fan once this defensive corps matures. Offense: Zajac and Kozek had great games. Prpich got his head out of his butt midway through the second period. Porter tried hard but couldn't get anything going at all. Porter had a disappointing weekend. Spirko worked the hardest of all wingers. If Fabian hadn't gotten tossed, he would have gotten that nod. Kaip... oy. Foyt isn't getting it done and Kaip, though pretty sound defensively isn't getting it done offensively nor his he really playing smart hockey either. I think Miller plays next weekend (Somehow PCM shoots to the top of my head every time I see that. ). Kaip, like Radke, is a second year freshman, but unlike Radke, it seems like Kaip is actually relearning the game instead of elevating it. Stafford worked hard but couldn't produce. Watkins and Duncan: They played ok, but not spectacular. Watkins over the weekend made some pretty poor defensive decisions. Toews and Oshie: Toews REALLY did a good job tonight. Oshie got the whole goal started for Toews, though I don't remember if Oshie got an assist. Woog was all over Oshie slathering him with praise. Phil Lamoreaux: MVP of the weekend. He had flashes of greatness. Woog even calls him Lamorello, so I understand why he's a bit preoccupied... playing in net for the Sioux PLUS coaching and GMing the Devils

Ditto, Wilbur. Everyone has their bad eggs. The way I see it: Minny got their good game Friday and we got our turn tonight. Call it a good series, payback for last season, whatever, but let it go.

I really wish I could have been there Instead, I got stuck watching the dog while everyone else in my family went to the Twin Cities

WHAT A GREAT SPLIT!!!!!!!!!!

SPIRKO EMPTY NET!!!!!

ZAJAC!!!!!!!!!

Wooooo high tension.

Wish we could have finished. That was great play.

This is looking to be the best period of the weekend thus far.

Nevertheless, have to respect the fact that the fans are in the game.

We're doomed anyways. If we change our name to the Barking Dogs, PETA will be after us.

Na ah HEY you suck? Good grief.

NOTE TO University of Minnesota: "Time for the perculator" WTF? Time to invest in an ad agency because these student made ads are just retarded.

Seriously, though, with everyone attacking our name why are you amazed that people would confront you about it? I'm just as serious as sprig is, spell our name. It is spelled S I O U X You make valid points on the game, bertibm, but respect the name please.

Slap Shot- You can tell where the puck is going to go before it leaves the stick too? Dude! What the hell are you doing watching the game? With that ability alone with a little work on your skating you could be the best shut down goaltender in the history of the NHL! You are really in the wrong venue dude. Get the helmet on and get in the game. You're really wasting your talent on message boards.

We're actually playing pretty well right now. This is night and day better play than last night.

Whew. Escaped. Good kill. We're playing better. All we need to do is to play smarter hockey and we'd be doing much better.

Kaip stupid penalty. Hooking AWAY FROM THE PLAY. WHAT THE ****!!!!

There you go. Thanks Erik Anyone else want to take a stupid penalty?

Possible Major coming.... we're up a goal. Any takers on escaping the PK still being up a goal?

Well, I saw a bunch of penalties. Zajac goes for slashing. Atherton for cross checking. Uh, I could have SWORE Frazee threw a punch... or was he waving at Zajac? In any case, someone from the Gophers go for roughing.
