    1st Team Big Ten Offense and Defense.

    Happy for our guys. Well earned, fellas. Also happy that I don't see any big, stupid "W" logos on either offense or defense!

    Moss leaving USC for portal

    I watched substantial parts of at least 4 USC games this year, including my attendance at HBS this year. Mark me down as unimpressed by Moss. Not to mean I think he's terrible, but nothing about him made me think "I wish he played for us". I'd say save your money for something else, PJ.

    2024-25 Gopher Hockey Season

    Gophers legs were driving A LOT harder tonight than they did vs Bemidji. That was fun to see.

    NCAA lifts eligibility ban in allowing Canadian Hockey League players to compete at U.S. colleges

    As someone that doesn't fully invest in understanding all of the recruiting nuances, NIL, etc, can the Gophers slow start in recruiting this fall possibly be attributed to Motzko being ahead of the game and has targets in Canadian hockey leagues?

    2024-25 Gopher Hockey Season

    My 10 year old was giggling all game about "Dick" and "Grandma". Gotta admit, I chuckled a bit, too.

    This Week in Big Ten Hockey: Golden Gophers booming with confidence heading into Wisconsin series as Minnesota’s blue line a ‘catalyst for us’

    Fair point, and I guess I don't have an actual number. For me I think it's more about how dangerous they are on the PP and while in the O-zone 5v5. Watching this team so far, they do not put me on the edge of my seat when I see a D-man get set up with a one-timer. I hope I'm underestimating...

    PJ hit his head on the ceiling while celebrating the victory over Illinois

    We had a guy in high school we called "Credit" because his vertical was about the thickness of a credit card. I'm betting Bert fits in that category also.

    This Week in Big Ten Hockey: Golden Gophers booming with confidence heading into Wisconsin series as Minnesota’s blue line a ‘catalyst for us’

    I agree that they'll put up points. I just don't see tons of goals coming from them. Bob made the point about lack of goals from the D-men last year and I just don't think there will be a huge jump up this year. I'd be very pleasantly surprised if any of them get to 10 or more.

    This Week in Big Ten Hockey: Golden Gophers booming with confidence heading into Wisconsin series as Minnesota’s blue line a ‘catalyst for us’

    It's unlikely a that a bunch of goals are going to come from the D corps. Mike Vanelli and Jordan Leupold aren't on the team. I'm hoping, though, that they can continue to feed the breakout and transition from defense to offense, where the forwards clearly do have guys that can finish.

    Describe the Gophers win over USC in 1 sentence

    Best game I've ever been at in any sport, at at any level.

    Mo comes home!

    He might really be a smart guy and a fantastic coach someday, but unfortunately he can't teach anybody how to run over 4 guys and push the pile 4 extra yards like he used to do.

    Darius Taylor M____M Jersey

    I never was a fan of these. I always referred to them as the "Heartbeat" jerseys because the M's look like the blip heartbeats make on medical devices. I'll show myself out now.

    Frank Mazzacco Retiring

    Frank was simply the best. Happy for him, sad for myself.

    Gopher Hockey Recruiting

    Is it generally agreed upon the Snuggerud will sign a pro contract soon? Looks to me like he's not quite ready for that jump, but that's just me.

    Postseason

    Michigan looks very "meh" for 50 minutes, but looks like the 1970's Soviet Olympic team for 10 minutes. Enough to win the game.

    ***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA AT ILLINOIS IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

    That was the funnest basketball game I've watched in years. Punch, counter punch. Clean play, too.
