That regional was one of my all-time best hockey experiences. I was in the bathroom after the first game and a Gopher fan comes up to me, and said, "hey we would have won." I said, "you're kidding right?" Skippy continued, "We would have won." I said Skippy, "your team is already on I29 headed home, you're done." For some reason Gopher fans like to confront you in the bathroom when your hands are tied up.
The building was so loud and then UND had to play Michigan. I sure Michigan was trilled to be in the arena after that.
