So you can use stats to justify your opinion. But when you get pushback, it's fake news. Got it. You are always right and are smarter than any human.

You know save percentage is a better stat right?

Yegorov: .909 career. 19 years old
Airey: .899 career. 22 years old

lol

Save % this year-- Yegorov -- 886 Airey -- 903

lol , wholly shit dude he’s 1/100 better. But because he’s 19 and not 22 he’s way better. FFS you need to get a life.

Nice work blowing four leads in one game. Christ.

 

[Lady Gopher]

Hope none of you are missing our unconscious goalie tonight!

60% of a win because they let it go to OT. I imagine that just about does it that they'll need to win the Big Ten tournament

I choose to celebrate the win. Go Gophers!

I had 60% of the joy of a game winning goal when it went in so I did my celebrating too. Obviously better than a loss

So you think 60% of a win against the #4 team in the country hurts our tourney chances? On what planet?

If they get back to .500 to be under contention, they’ll be right on the bubble. Luckily counts for a full win there

Planet Bonin21 where he can never be happy when the Gophers win.

It's not about "hurts". It's about saving it.

 

[Crosby]

It's not about "hurts". It's about saving it.

And that game result was helpful in "saving it." I'm happy today.

 

[bleedsmaroonandgold]

So DU got 60% exposed last night?

I believe the term used by psychologists is Emotional Over-Identification. The team's performance  is personal.

It has elements of strong social identification and hierarchy, vicarious achievement, a desire for control and an affinity for drama. When viewed through this lens, the story shifts from obnoxious to sad and a bit concerning. They are probably at least partially aware of these destructive tendencies, but it's not enough to break the cycle because of the dopamine rushes they get out of it. It's too bad because they seem very knowledgeable and are clearly passionate.
