Watched Friday's game. Didn't see yesterday's game but listened to most of it via stream. Takeaways from that, and the overall weekend: 1) St Thomas isn't very good, although they do have a few high-caliber players. Not many who could get a lot of playing time for the Gophs 2) I hate...

This. 100%.

No, and No. Death, taxes, and the annual slobbering about how good Nebraska is going to be.

Gophers win 24-20.

I liked that as well. But obviously didn't like the five goals given up. Seemed to me that our goalie was losing site of the puck a lot. A few of those were way too easy as he was so far out of position. Hard to tell if that's a technique thing or if UMD was getting some fortunate bounces...

I love Koi. Great player, and an impact player obviously. He has been an absolute stud. But, as others have said, you can make that case for other players too. How about Brosmer? If AK is still our QB, there is no way that we win that UCLA game. That last TD pass to Taylor was terrific...

Agreedy. I thought we didn't strategic Agreed. Another observation... I didn't like how we approached overtime. Puck possession is huge at that time, and we didn't play that way. In particular, Huglen attempted to beat two guys, by himself, and predictably gave up possession. They scored...

Yep we will know more after tonight. Fwiw... Air Force beat Arizona State in OT the night after the game you reference. They aren't a good team but they aren't DIII either

Some of us stuck in the northland would appreciate pictures of the Gopher faithful!

Thought the team looked GREAT last night. Our D is really, really good. Chesley was terrific. Goaltending was absolutely solid. Was really nice to see Kurth get that kind of production. Hope we are going to see a breakout season from him. Omaha will be a tougher test tonight, and we'll...

You should really, really give up on this program. You hate the coach. You think the fans suck. You think the recruiting classes suck. You think we dont travel well. Why even follow this team? Do us all a favor and start rooting for the Sioux.

Agreed 100 percent. Love the depth on this team. We will have rock solid 3 lines and 3 sets of high quality D. 4th line will be good too. This team will be hard to play against I think. A lot has to go well to make National title game or even FF. And even more has to go right for us to win...

Wait... I said they were like Nebraska, not Iowa.

Ok, that was one hell of a win. I made the drive down for the game and was so glad that I did. Awesome night. Prior to this game I had no particular dislike of USC. But that program has the same "we're naturally better than you" attitude that the Huskers had when they first joined the BIG...

Yes, in high school. Does that somehow mean it's magically different? You aren't understanding my point about removing responsibility. I think every senior on the team should have the responsibility to be a leader. By selecting captains in the first place, in some ways you are letting the...

I think I know hockey extremely well and I am not laughing.

Why? I have been on teams with 4-5 captains. No problem at all. Everybody was a good leader and their teammates wanted them to be recognized for that. There are coaches who make the entire senior class captains. And that can work well. Theory is that by picking one or two, you are taking...

Might be your dumbest take of all time.

This is a 100% true. But I see it as a bigger thing. It's not just the Gophers. Purdue, Indiana, Illinois, etc have all been effed over more times than you can count vs the big boys. Happens every year. Was the ref deliberately trying to make the Gophers lose? Doubtful. But there is...

Another rant... That catch by Jackson for a TD was awesome. But as noted elsewhere here, it was of course, originally reviewed as out of bounds. On what fricking planet is that not a TD? I am glad they reviewed it and got it right. But they shouldn't have had to review it. He had two feet...
