How it'll go is by the spring they will be a contender again. And the Gophers as currently constructed will just be fighting to get in for a first round knockout. UM, UND, and MSU will end the year in the top 6 in NPI

Bueller...

Carels North Dakota. Two top 5 D men on their blueline.

Yes it will be a new thread with the same feeling. We are already Loserville USA until we WIN a title. Period. https://champsorchumps.us/drought/longest-championship-drought-by-city

Honestly... If they make it and don't win, it'll be even worse.

What in the world are you talking about Red Wings 1997 1998 2002 2008

Umm ask the people that have to deal with me on the hockey forum. I have been agonizing like that my entire adulthood.

No it wouldn't have.

Dilly Bar Dan has a lot of staying power

I only care about Gopher hockey, but the idea can be applied. 2023 (21 years after the last title) was infinitely more painful than 2014, 2012, 2006, etc. Every year without a title makes the overall pain worse.

Pain isn't tied to the number of years. It's tied to moments. It doesn't saturate. I was 2 years old in 1991 so didn't experience those. In 1998, I cried over the Vikings. Two years later, they got their asses kicked about 41-0 and I didn't feel anything. Then Brett Favre 09 stung was more...

How many years to break even on this project?

Then Ludtke is your 2C and this kid is your 3C if he doesn't pan out... If someone asked you last night: Would you take Shilov on the roster for the fall? You would say no?

They don't have a 1C or a 2C. It's crazy. The kid could be your 2C.

I should have taught Motzko how to view those stats last spring

Well I disagree and say he would slot right in as a 2C. So we wait and see how he looks in January 2027.
