Frozen4sioux Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 The thing that really is pathetic is that their marble mouthed pxp guy gets more excited about a good drawing a penalty than an actual goal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goon Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 I watched the first period and a half between Merrimack and DU. What a boring game. Score after two periods of play. 2-0 DU. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only time Merrimack can get the puck in the DU zone is when they dump it in on a line change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlphaMikeFoxtrot Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Pac 12 has a guy who has clearly never watched hockey describing college hockey highlights. Kept referring to Duluth as the Mavericks among other malpropisms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I keep saying that embarrassing attendance isn’t good for college hockey. As much as I love anything that makes gopher hockey look bad.

Attendance is down everywhere, but they also kept raising prices and fees while convincing themselves big 10 opponents are who their fans want to see. They need to apologize to their fans. This isn't 20 years ago when college hockey was the only puck in town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Minnesota needs UND more then UND needs Minnesota. I watch a lot of Minnesota’s games and no one shows up unless UND is in town. Minnesota doesn’t get close to 9k in attendance per game.

SiouxFan100 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 As far as who needs each other the most between UND or minn I don’t know or really care. I do care about college hockey attendance. I do care about expanding the number of teams. Higher attendance and more strong programs help all teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or are you just trying to antagonize the UND fans by saying that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siouxperfan7 Posted December 29, 2018 Share Posted December 29, 2018 Gopher women’s basketball attendance last night was 7918. Attendance for the hockey game was 7962. Of course this is paid attendance, so it is likely women’s basketball outdrew men’s hockey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
