This will obviously be a big challenge for the Buckeyes, but they did finally break out of a big slump. The Bucks had gone 0-8-1 in their last nine games before heading up to New Hampshire to take on the Wildcats. The Buckeyes swept UNH by scores of 3-2 and 2-0. The comment I saw the most from UNH fans was that they thought our team was much better than their record, and I would agree with that. The question is, do we have the ship righted enough to be competitive with #1-ranked Minnesota? We'll find out this weekend. This is a Saturday/Sunday series with Saturday's game starting at 6:00 and Sunday's game starting at noon. Hope to see CrazyDave and some of the other Minnesota fans this weekend! Have a safe trip down, for those who are coming.

Re: Ohio State vs Minnesota 12/7 - 12/8
Expect the two wins can only energize and inspire the Buckeyes to play well with renewed confidence. Expected that when I read about the team meeting...so I think everything they did right and the overall effort vs. UNH will continue. Return to conference play with valuable points at stake...the break coming up all should make for intensity on both benches.Minnesota Hockey

No, that's not me in the picture but you get my drift (haha, pun intended).

I'm actually flying into Cincy and staying with a GWH friend. Getting in late Friday night (again, assuming no problems with my connecting flight at O'Hare).Give blood... Play Gopher Hockey!

Re: Ohio State vs Minnesota 12/7 - 12/8
Word on the Gophers' team Twitter account at 10 a.m. CT this morning was that their flight to Columbus was cancelled and they were trying to make other arrangements. No travel updates have been posted since then, though Kelly Terry posted about the storm itself about an hour ago.
I'm still hoping for only minimal difficulties getting to Cincinnati tonight. I'm still at home at the moment (2:25 pm CT), but leaving for the airport in the next hour or so.Last edited by CrazyDave; 12-06-2013, 02:28 PM.Give blood... Play Gopher Hockey!
