    First off the whistle had not blown, I just went back and watched it. Condon shot the puck and as he moved towards the net was hit. No doubt it was a penalty but accusing BC of being anywhere near the nameless team like is idiotic.

      BC is a skill team. Not a team that runs around playing cheap. This is somewhat of an overreaction.

        You're making a fool of yourself.

          What was the name of that ******azz Gopher player that mugged Billy Arnold in Tampa again? I forget. Maybe you have forgotten that too?

Trivino has never been one of those players. Even outside of the rink, he'll say hi and is plenty of friendly, but has never been even close to saying or doing anything inappropriate.

            Time to move Linell back to forward. Or the bench. Foolish decision to keep trotting him out there on D.

            I can't even take this team seriously until they make some reasonable personnel decisions. Did this same program cut Colin Sullivan? Really?

              Quite.

              FWIW - Condon was the last MN player through the handshake line and York spoke with him for quite a long time before they left the ice. Obviously I don't know what was said but as a fan in the stands York's gesture spoke volumes to me.

              Best of luck the balance of the season to the Eagles.

                Yeah maybe I am overreacting. Still don't like to see those kinds of hits on anybody. I'd be angry if a Gopher player did it to somebody too.

                  Hey I overreacted a bit to tell you to shut it. Condon took the shot and started moving towards a rebound like any good forward should. The BC player obstructed him and was rightfully called for a penalty. It just looked a lot worse because Condon crashed into the net at full speed.

                    Yeah my bad. Not sure what game I liked watching more. Friday was more exciting, but I liked the outcome more today. Wish Gaudreau was wearing an M on his sweater.

                      The Friday game was one of the best games I have seen, just total end to end action. These two teams will be ones to look out for in late March for sure.

                        Best of luck to BC the rest of the way (unless we meet again ). Gopher fans appreciate the way your team plays the game.

                          Jerry York took some extra time in the handshake line to talk to Condon, undoubtedly to make sure he was ok. Pure class. The hit was definitely a penalty, and my first reaction was also that it could have been awfully late and suspension warranting. But after looking at the replay I think it was just a hard hockey play. Really hope to see these two teams play more often, and don't look forward to having to play your team on your ice next season. Best of luck to you guys this season.

                              Cut him a bit of slack, he admitted he overreacted a bit. It happens from time to time with all of us.

                                Good luck to you too Gopher's the rest of the way. Hope to meet up with you again come April.

                                That was a very good test for the Eagles over the weekend and something the team can build on. After a couple of routs to ranked opponents, this weekend was a bit more humbling and exposed some weaknesses. I have no doubt they'll figure it out.
                                Go Eagles!
