2024-25 Gopher Hockey Season



I have to give a shoutout to Jimmy Snuggerud. I was one those people who assumed that based on the way he played the last 2 months of the season last year he had one foot out the door. The way he has played this season, not just individually but from a team perspective, makes me think the rumors of him playing with an injury last year had some truth to them. He has come back and played some great hockey and been a huge leader on this team. He may even have a chance to be a Hobey finalist - pretty cool to see his work pay off.

unless he goes complete ghost mode down the stretch, would be shocking if he's part of the hobey hat trick
 

Slow start but once they kicked it in, Gophs controlled the game. 31 had a great game between the pipes. That place was rocking last night and hoping it's the same tonight.
 


Talk about a first period that was 6,000 times more enjoyable than the first period last night.
 


Maybe the Hastings curse has been broken. BADgers really taking runs at guys the last 2 minutes.

Hastings sending out the extra skater to take runs at guys certainly says something about him.
 

Hastings knows he's fucked and no high end players want to commit to him
 





BC hangs 8 on NE in Beanpot semi to get their 20th win in game 25. 20-4-1, last year 19-5-1 through the same. 8 wins in a row, all regulation without giving up more than 2. Ryan Leonard the Hobey favorite.

BU hangs 7 and forming into one of the "non-BC" contenders with their new star goalie and Cole Hutson already the second best D man in the country as a freshman.

Beanpot championship a potential FF semi or championship preview.
 




I took in my first game of the season this past Saturday at Mariucci, and it was quite fun. It was great to be at a Sold Out arena and have it be way over 90% Gopher fans. The pair of North Dakota games I have been to (post-WCHA split) it was much closer to the 50-50.

Also, I am a huge fan of the 5PM puck drop (on Saturday).

Yeah I like the early start as well.
