***OFFICIAL MINNESOTA VS BOSTON FROZEN FOUR IN-GAME THREAD!!!***

[WayOfTheGopher]

The only way the Gophers lose this game is a collapse by Close. They look to be so much better than BU! They were skating circles around them the first period. Yes, I realize they didn't put more pucks away but from what I saw, they are levels above the Terriers.

I'm very confident after watching that period even though they seemed somewhat snakebit early on...

The dreaded second period is coming up and we all know how the Gophers play in second periods.

Gotta keep the pressure on like the first game up in Fargo against team so insignificant I can’t remember their name.

 

[Otis]

Tigers done.

 

[WayOfTheGopher]

It's possible the Boston goaltender held onto the stick -- like knocking the net off -- to negate that goal.

The stick definitely was stuck in the mitt which is interference. They can't call it on intention but on what happened.

Probably a judgement call, I've seen worse and not be called interference.

 

[MUgopher32]

Brutal TO there.

Thats how we lose. Other wise dominating

 

[BTChamp]

Nice save on that fluke goal opportunity.

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

Missing way too many open nets

 

[MUgopher32]

Jesus have got to bury these point blank chances.

Shit, just hit the damn net

 

[BTChamp]

Missing way too many open nets

They are shooting on a smaller net.......

 

[Tully55]

Another point blank shot just wide.

Gophers look WAY better. Just can't let off the gas.

 

[DanvilleGopher]

They need to bury these chances or they might allow puck luck to take things away...

 

[BTChamp]

MAYASICH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Otis]

What does Mayasich mean exactly?

 

[MUgopher32]

Been playing like shit ever since that TO gave them O zone time

 

[Tully55]

John Mayasich.....what a stud!

 

[DarrenTheGreek]

Fudge

 

[BTChamp]

The dreaded second period is coming up and we all know how the Gophers play in second periods.

Coming true

 

[DanvilleGopher]

They are so passive on the power play...

 

[MUgopher32]

Have completely lost it

 

[Otis]

I prefer Marriucci, a nice iron range boy.

 

[BTChamp]

Should be up 5-1, but missing open nets, keeps a lesser team in and now we're tied. Maybe they shouldn't be up 5-1 if they can't hit open nets.

 

[Otis]

Fuuuuuuccccccckkkkkkkjk!

 

[MUgopher32]

have got to put pucks on the damn goal

Making too many passes and shooting wide doesnt win games

 

[Otis]

Goalie interference on that BU goal?

 

[Tully55]

Minn outshot this period 9-2

 

[From the Parkinglot]

Gophers gonna regret the number of missed chances. Game could easily be 5-2

 

[BTChamp]

I blame it on the ugly piece of shit wisconsin emblem at the Gophers bench.

 

[Iceland12]

What does Mayasich mean exactly?

Goals! Lots of goals.

 

[SHGopher]

Minnesota will own the second half of the 3rd.
