[Section 100]

That was the worst coaching ever. Trying to ride out an entire period? Terrible!

 

[scools12]

Awful effort. Quin wins this I'm afraid. We look shell shocked.

If Quin does win they would completely deserve to considering the way the Gophers decided to play the 3rd period.

 

[Section 100]

And now they have to turn it on? At least the forwards are rested.

 

[Crappie]

Mn gagged.

 

[Homerpalooza]

Getting that penalty was just dumb. Pulling the goalie was ballsy. Stupid penalties lose championships.

Gophers need to play offense not try to burn a clock, I think they will do it.

 

[Lutefisk guy]

Damn people,
We got this , stay positive for shits sake! Go Gophers!

 

[Gopherguy0723]

If Q wins it, it'll be fully and completely deserved. They've been better. By a long shot.

Much better. Faber and Lacombe have come to play.

Close has given up 2 soft goals.

Cooley is nowhere to be seen. QPac's size is rendering him useless, and he is pressing.

Motzko's decision to play not-to-lose in the 3rd was pathetic.

 

[builtbadgers]

Have we won a third period faceoff?

outplayed in every category but can still win.

 

[SHGopher]

Come on Minnesota! Let's go!

Typical ending to regulation.

 

[denguegopher]

Going into a shell was obviously a mistake. Crank up the offense!

 

[stocker08]

Fleck called Motzko and told him to try and run out the clock.

 

[WindyCityGopher]

Somebody needs to get one for Randy Skarda.

 

[denguegopher]

I'm glad that there is a break. Let's establish some offense from the start.

 

[Tully55]

OT is a 50/50 situation.
My prediction...Quinn is overconfident and makes a WTF was that mistake...Minn scores and wins.

 

[GringaGopher]

Hard to watch now and even worse listening to these National guys all say it will be basically a miracle if we win .

 

[GoodasGold]

I didn't want to say it.....but I agree. Both should have been stopped.

Goalie Stick work could have saved those goals.

 

[denguegopher]

Let's disappoint these announcers and win.

 

[From the Parkinglot]

I hate my life.

 

[stocker08]

...............

 

[GoodasGold]

OT is a 50/50 situation.
My prediction...Quinn is overconfident and makes a WTF was that mistake...Minn scores and wins.

Well….shit!!!

 

[Gopherguy0723]

CLASSIC!

 

[From the Parkinglot]

Gophers were absolutely outplayed in every aspect of the game and were lucky to get to overtime.

 

[Homerpalooza]

Fuuuuck

 

[GophersInIowa]

A comedy of errors down the stretch.

 

[WindyCityGopher]

Harvard, Union. Quinnipeac. We gave them all their first and only national titles. That’s just goddamn embarrassing.

 

[STPGopher]

!@##e$%$#@!#%$%#$$#@$#@$%#

 

[Gopherjar]

Sit back and try to just play defense is not a way to play an entire period.

 

[Crappie]

Ass kicking. Dominated by Q.

 

[WayOfTheGopher]

I looked away for two seconds. Fucking hell.
