But there is one difference, and the UMTC faithful keep acting like it isn't an issue! Goaltending!!! Sioux will out do them with that one key position! And being a grittier team too. Gopher players think they're all All-Stars and don't have to get dirty or battle in the corners. Usually a majority of their players are pre-madonas, but everyone knows that's expected with Gophers players. Quote
sioux rube Posted October 20, 2012 Posted October 20, 2012 Gophs looked much better tonight in the first period compared to last night. Could easily be 3 or 4 nothing right now. Ambroz with the goal to make it 1-0 goofs after 1. Quote

This was true 2 or 3 years ago...The Gophers have a different make-up now and Guentzel has added a little sandpaper to their attitudes. Quote
Let'sGoHawks! Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 I've watched about a period total of the gopher game this weekend, and boy, is McLoed an improvement at announcer. I can't believe they let him go all those years ago when he was on the old MSC! Quote
bigskyvikes Posted October 21, 2012 Posted October 21, 2012 McLeod is a major Homer to an extreme level! According to him the national championship is already in the trophy case in MN! Quote

If you watched the game last night the goaltending was not the problem....it was their defensive meltdowns. Quote

I'll agree with you on that one. I could be in the minority here, but I don't mind him. Maybe it is the charm of the 'stache! Quote

I think everyone's laughing because of all the talk of the Gophers being "unstoppable" after destroying Michigan State and then the very next game they lose. Oh now...I definitely read some cocky posts. Quote

I don't think anybody expected them to go undefeated all year long. Even the 1986-87 Sioux team lost 8 games. The Gophers are still the best team in college hockey in spite of what happened last night. I guess we will find out Monday on the rankings... Quote
