I'm interested to see the chemistry of this year's team. Last year at the start of the year they had that crazy streak going, and were two time defending national champs. They were really attached to the previous years' team. I think t was a bit of an obstacle to establishing their own identity, as great as it all was.
After losing to Clarkson last year, a lot of the attachment is gone. It's time to start it all up again brand new this year. I'm very curious to see how they respond. Hopefully they are as tight and get along as good as ever, and maybe have a little extra intensity and determination, especially with the Frozen Four at Ridder.
20 girls in the pictures, 21 on the roster. Hard to tell who is who, but guessing the missing GWH'er at the retreat was Rachel Ramsey since I heard her DJ'ing on the radio driving home from the football game yesterday.
It was mostly the Power Play Club Board of Directors, their significant others, and a couple others. We had a lot of good discussion, but wrapped things up a little early.
Give blood... Play Gopher Hockey!

Anyone know whether our tickets for the opening weekend get us into the Husky games as well? Although I didn't look that hard, neither school appears to be selling tickets for the 4:00 PM games.

When they have hosted a showcase event like this in the past, it has been considered one session just like the Frozen Four or WCHA Final Face-Off semis. It isn't like the fan bases for all four teams won't fit in the building in the first weekend of October.

Be great to hear any thoughts regarding this morning's festivities at Ridder if anyone has the time or inclination. Couldn't get there myself unfortunately.
How the freshmen looked. If the Alums on the ice still got it.
