Gophers gooning it up. Lindgren is a chippy POS.

[cberkas]

Well lets hope they end up in Fargo with UND.

They would beg and pay to stay away from a building in ND

Disappointing to say the least.

Yep. Goalie was way out of the crease.

Any win over us they love to boast about, who knows if we will play again so the fans in the cities will hold on to this like .6

Und played very well tonight. Nothing to lose your heads at. Ran into a hot goalie and hit the post 3 or 4 times. Everybody needs to take a chill pill and relax. I'm going to throw this out there though. Ryan Lindgren is an absolute pile of !@#$.

Not tonight. Better team lost tonight in my opinion. 

[nodakgirl93]

Well we are the defending champs so this doesn't sting like it normally would. They just need to shoot the puck quicker 

[Fetch]

Let's hope they can bounce back against Denver

Don't know what else to say 

not funny but the Vikings are giving me the same feeling 

[bigskyvikes]

Good game I think...too bad they loss, but they are starting to get things going!

The season is young and they are getting things clicking! No worries here I think!

Not a chance. Und was by far the better team tonight

Yeah, this one will hurt but the good thing about the NCHC is you have a chance to always play ranked opponents so they will be fine. If nothing else they can just try to win their first frozen faceoff lol

We actually got outplayed by the goal posts...but that was it, I guess you can say Schierhorn outplayed Cam. Overall I agree we were the better team tonight.

I am sure this will be a 2nd half team, I look forward to when they start to play to their potential.

[Wilbur]

Four posts.....outshot em, carried the play, didn't score on some empty nets, and we saw Boeser get pissed and play with passion.  Ohh, and our best defenseman didn't play.

May have come together a little bit there at the end.  Would love to see a postseason matchup between the schools.  Tons of hockey before then.

Doesn't get any easier next weekend, but at least I get an hour more of sleep right?

Kinda like some of our fans held onto Holy Cross for, oh, about a decade?

True, but you will be playing tough teams every night, so splits are inevitable in a lot of them.

Absolutely this!

I thought this was one of the better games we have put together so far this season. I'm sure Cam wants both of those goals back and with a struggling group of defensemen he really needs to step up his play and carry us for a while. Hopefully we will see some improvement as the D get more experience but right now you can only trust about 4 on any given night. Schierhorn was the difference tonight as he was very solid tonight and got a few lucky breaks as well with about 4 posts. Thought Smith stepped into the lineup and played well but Gornall struggled and I'd much rather see Yon in over him I didn't really get that move. Hopefully Poolman can heal up this week and be ready to go for Denver because right now everytime Peski gets on the ice it seems like he panics and gives up some kind of chance and Johnson isn't fairing too much better back there right now. Think we will see some changes this week with the lines and especially the PP that 1st group really didn't seem to fit well together.
