I don't think so. In fact, we should probably take down some of the existing banners. I am sure those championship teams all had flaws that would be unforgiveable in a certain poster's world.

We are all just waiting on pins and needles for you to declare this team a contender.

I agree. We played well tonight and we are getting better as the season goes on. Anyone who wasn't encouraged by watching this weekend does not know much about hockey. Unless you are judging shootouts. We're terrible there.

Absolutely. This one was win tonight. Joke.

Word, you are posting like a GopherHole amateur. You have been here long enough to know that facts are not relevant if they get in the way of a good narrative. In this case.. jabs at PJs recruiting and QB development.

It's not really the money. I won't even complain about the broadcast quality. I'd watch the games live streamed by someone with a cell phone if that's all I could get. It's just annoying. I subscribe to the Direct TV regional sports package (whichever one includes BTN, Bally and all that). I...

Right. If they beat the #4 team in the country in OT tonight, to finish off a weekend sweep of the Badgers, then that will be an abject failure in your book. Got it.

Yes, it is good, especially against the #4 ranked team in PW.

Those were fun days. This current situation is especially frustrating for those of us who don't live in the Twin Cities and can't get to many home games. Good win last night. I was a doubter for most of the second and third periods.

Yep. His development has been great to see. Let's see how he does in this cross-border rivalry. Need him to be big.

I am thinking a split would be a good result this weekend. I think the Badgers sort of took everyone by surprise with their rapid improvement (vs last year) in the early part of the season. They are good, but I believe the Gophs know this will be a dog fight, and will be ready this time...

For sure. Slightly off that subject... one of the things I liked most about Saturday's game (and in general recent play) has been the improvement of Moore. He looks like an impact player now.

You hope the U of M doesn't "go woke?" That train left the station a long time ago, as it has for pretty much every large public university. But I suppose that is a topic for the OTB.

I 100% agree with your take on a certain poster who thinks he knows hockey better than the rest of us. Negativity and arrogance is a bad combo. That said, last night was an awful collapse. I am sure most people would at that one and say "you can't give up 3 goals in the 3rd period. The D...

I agree. I noticed he was very slow to get up after taking hits at least twice this weekend. Wonder if something is still bothering him. And yes, he (along with other few others) had some giveaways. At the same time, he was involved offensively. The D as a whole was. Sam R. made some...

Got it. It's either perfect, or in your words, "the entire D is a mess." Ridiculous.

What are you talking about? I thought they were good this weekend.

I may not have this right, but I think that the athletic department has to "buy" the scholarships from the school, meaning the $ for the tuition has to be covered by the athletic department budget. An athletic scholarship is basically the athletic department offering to pay a kid's tuition...

You don't think the lack of energy has more to do with no students, no band and the rest of the seats maybe half full?

I don't share the angst on this one. The shots were about 1000 to 12. I didn't see a lack of effort out there. I do see some players who have not played up to their 2022-2023 level. That's not necessarily "uninspired" hockey. Snuggy was plenty inspired. Didn't score. Moore played his...
