Of course, dummy, every year the senior class graduates, and we bring in new freshmen. What do you guys in Wisconsin do, stay in school forever so you can get at the free paint thinner and dead deer?XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXXX
The reason for the talent in the west? Because MN didn't rely on Canada.

Re: Minnesota Gopher 2012 offseason thread
I have a question about a former Gopher Evan Kaufmann. I just saw him play for team Germany in the IIHF tournament. I thought he was from the Twin Cities. Does anyone know how he has ended up playing for Germany? Does he have duel citizenship, because of a parent?

I found this article about his situation. It is a pretty amazing story.

Frank got reunited with Wally on radio cause Sonmor retired. I don't necessarily dig the TV setup right now but at least Frank is still with Gopher hockey and I'm happy about that.

Re: Minnesota Gopher 2012 offseason thread
Greetings, Gophers.
So, there's a very, very high likelihood that I'll be meandering through Minneapolis before heading toward East Lansing to start a vacation that I have coming up in October. And, with apparent good timing on my side, it looks as though I'll be getting into town near the second weekend in October.
I think you might see where I'm going with this: I'd like to try to scratch a bulletpoint off my college hockey bucket list and see a game (or, two, if the Thursday-Friday rumors become reality) at Mariucci when my Spartans are in town.
I have many questions, but I'll squeeze my list down to this:
1.) What's the likelihood of me nabbing a single SRO ticket (or, heck, an actual seat) through Minnesota's athletics website for each game, say, one month or two months prior to gameday? When do tickets normally go on sale through the Minnesota athletics website?
2.) What are tickets at Mariucci going for nowadays? Still around the $30-$35 range? How much will parking set me back, and do you have any lot recommendations?
3.) Do you have any recommendations for lodging near the rink? I'll be honest: I'm looking for something on the cheap. Basically, I just need a bed to sleep in and a WiFi connection to search the USCHO forums on.
Oh, and any other pre- and/or post-game Minneapolis-St. Paul-related recommendations would be fine, too.Last edited by aallenpollreisz; 05-13-2012, 08:26 PM.Michigan State University Spartan Hockey66 - 86 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 84 - 86 - 87 - 89 - 92 - 99 - 01 - 0759 - 66 - 67 - 82 - 83 - 84 - 85 - 86 - 87 - 88 - 89 - 90 - 92 - 94 - 95 - 96 - 97 - 98 - 99 - 00 - 01 - 02 - 04 - 06 - 07 - 08 - 12
