Goon

Don't think so. EJ has a chance of making the club though.

It's a horrible philosophy to run a league by and the NCAA had taken issue with the WCHA. I always think it's funny how MTU score the other night and the refs immediately put the Goofers on the power play. Reffing by the score.

My buddy once told me the same thing, basically that the league wants parity and there really isn't that much parity between the 10 place teams and the 1-5 place teams so the league officals are going to take that into perspective when they are calling the game. My response to him was there doesn't need to be parity, its not our fault if UAA and others can't compete with the rest of the league in recruiting. In my opinion the refs real reason for being there is to call the game not take politics into the equation. I could give a rats ass if 7-10 can't compete without trying to slow down the game, what next a cap on the number of top recruits a team can have?

If a person had a hard time sleeping watch this series. Its going to be boring.

I think its funny, but you can't make this stuff up. I am sure tDon will be having a class on what to say and what not to say to the media.

Now Minnesota losing to the last place team in the league would be an implosion. Oh the humanity. I would be cool to see a Final Five Void of Wisconsin and Minnesota for once. The WCHA would be having kittens.

Nothing like the Gophers being on a roll going into the playoffs, hopefully you won't end up losing the meaningless third place game again this season.

I agree the officials would be admitting they were calling the games poorly, won't happen.

I don't think they have a station that carries the games up there. You might be able to find a bar that has them on but doubtful.

There will be a big crowd for that one.

I missed that one, I didn't know Lucia and the Gophers were responsible for that one.

Polls Smolls...

It seems that Bill Howard has gotten Connely to play Badger type systems and will proabably be almost as good as the Badgers goalies of years past. Boring hockey, UMD fans should request a refund for having to watch that.

With or without laser show?

Its almost like BuckySieve is this 15 year old that goes around policing the internet to make sure no one disses his brown and yellow rodents. All you have to do is bad mouth the Goofers and he appears right on cue.

Dude that is awesome. Rant Over.

The only poll that matter is the one that takes place in April.

You can add it all up but the only thing that matters is 7 > 5

Hook line and Sinker again. Your going to need all the help you can get because of your porus goaltending.

LOL, I am betting Derreck Sheppard or Don Adam. Papa Sheppard will be sitting in the stands to make sure the Gophers don't get hosed.

The Gophers will get the best official that the WCHA can offer, who that is I don't have a clue, maybe Redwing_77 can give us some insight on it. The Seawolves will be called for every infraction so the league can assure it's so called percieved top draw will make the big tourney. Look for DU to be called for everything too this next weekend. I bet if we look at the Penalty numbers I will be right too.

Implosing coming to Minnesota I remember saying at the begining of the season that the big question mark was the goaltending in Minnesota. I remember Gopher fans saying that Briggs was far supperior to anything UND has. Hum!!! Where are those people now? Beating up on patsies at the beginning of the season to over inflate your gaa and save percentage does nothing when you play the big boys. Briggs is and will always be a second or third tier goalie.

I am glad they let the smart people figure this out, I just got a head ache reading that. I think that's why I was a sociology and CJ major in college.

Is that with Briggsieve or Frazee in net?
