Yep. The announcers blamed it on traffic...just not willing to let reality sink in.

While I can't say glowing things about the officials, I don't think the really had much to do with the outcome. Sloppy passing and clearing attempts cost North Dakota a couple of goals. Throw in a weak performance by Cam, and a tie was probably about right. Certainly a disappointing result for North Dakota, but a win tomorrow night would help ease the sting of tonight. Keep in mind that North Dakota has only swept Minnesota at Mariucci once in the last 36 years...not the easiest thing in the world to do.

After that horrid start by MN, I'm happy with the tie. Helluva game.

The rivalry is back.

As for the refs, they sent the message early with the game misconducts. They were gonna call it tight. (Listened on radio, so any visual input would help and is appreciated).

Here's to tomorrow night, and hopefully another outstanding game.

With Minnesota moving to a superior conference I was led to believe that the rivalry was over.

Not in my world. I've always hated UND more than WI. I want to destroy their ONLY dream. At least WI has FB and maybe bouncyball to fall back on.

YMMV with other posters, though.

I took my sister - an avid hockey fan and U of M grad - to the game tonight and she said afterwards that it was the most exciting hockey game she's ever been to.

The reality is Minnesota fans don't want to pay $10,000 dollars for a seat license.

9936 tix were sold, according to GPL's owner/manager Jupiter. 10K is max capacity. Now, how many showed up is a different answer, obviously.

And again, $90 SROs affected the attendance. $120-130 for a seat. These are face prices.

I think it was a sellout. I also think a lot of dicks lost their arse.
