    Denver - Please give the Gophers 9 PP's (like you did against UND) on one of the nights this weekend. Thanks
    Gophers went 1-9 on the weekend against UMD, not so great. I would hope they can get it clicking against DU, but I'm not super confident in the Gopher PP right now.

      DU game Notes for this weekend. DU has no injuries and will send its 18 eligible skaters on the trip along with its goalies. I would venture a guess that Jussi plays goal on Friday.

        I see no reason to believe that DU will be headhunting Rau. Obviously you disagree, but I will be quite surprised if there is anything at all to that.

        And the PK has been known to be a pretty strong part of DU's game.

          Me too, honestly. Anything aimed at Rau will be from his lippyness, not what happened last year.

            We shall see. Hockey players have a very good memory for things like this.

              They are also coached, and Gwoz is one of the best. If the games are close, which I suspect they will be, no headhunting will happen. Just my feeling.

                To be honest with ya SOH, I've been on enough beastly hockey teams to know that all it takes is a little locker room chatter (code) and Rau might as well tape a target on his friggin' back regardless of what the coach says. But your point is well taken, DU has taken too many penalties this season and I'm sure Gwoz will emphasize not giving the Gophers any PP ops.

                  Rau has a target on his back for every conference game already. Nothing new.

                    Truth...but with a little added incentive for this series though. We shall see.

                      Preview from Gophersports

                      The No.2 Minnesota men's hockey program returns to action this weekend with a two-game Western Collegiate Hockey Association series against No. 10/11 Denver at Mariucci Arena. Friday's series opener will be broadcast on the Big Ten Network and 1500 ESPN while Saturday's regular-season home finale is on FOX Sports North and 1500 ESPN. Both games are slated for 7 p.m. starts. Minnesota (21-6-5 overall, 13-6-5 WCHA) is 92-71-12 all-time against the Pioneers including a 51-27-6 mark against this weekend's visitors on home ice. However, Denver (16-10-5, 11-8-5) has won eight out of the last 10 matchups between the two conference competitors.

                        Maybe we should be proactive and just suspend Rau right now.

                          I like to hear Helgy say that the Gophers need to play two COMPLETE games, but I'd like to see that translate to the ice now!!

                            The Gophers are the second ranked team in the nation and we are complaining about not seeing them put to good games together. Awesome, the Gopher program is officially back in action!!!

                                They'll be headhunting Rau, just not for last year. Rau will run his mouth and Mayfield won't be able to restrain himself and take several stupid penalties.
