    Just playin' dude. In retrospect, I'm sure tDon won't be goin' that route again this season. I totally agree with you on Kangas for key games. He still da Khan man.

      I'm thinking the exhibition/holiday tourneys, but maybe that's just me?
      If your friend is a good source, it sounds to me that Patterson will see more than just exhibition/holiday tourney games.

          I wish they had a couple more games before jumping into WCHA play...... strange that there are no games this weekend.

            It was only British Columbia, but the defense was very good and Helgeson looks like the real deal. Hopefully they'll have some good practices and can put a beat down on the no names in a week and a half.

              Anywhichway, the more ice time doesn't surprise me, but given the previous MO's of Gophers hockey, I'd say BS games, look for Patterson, and key games, write down Kangas Khan in stone.
              I think you are underestimating how much Lucia plans to play Patterson. I think it is more likely that Lucia will rotate regularly than having Kent just play BS games. Kangas is going to need plenty of days off if last year is any indication...he should play in 60-70% of the regular season games, no more.

                For regular season I'm willing to bet it's closer to 50. I bet Lucia is just going to go with a set Friday/Saturday rotation all year and see who's rolling come playoff time.

                    This is what I was thinking as well and we will soon find out. If Patterson gets a start against the susies I would think he would continue with a rotation of some kind unless he has a complete meltdown up there.

                      That would be hard to do since all the teams in the WCHA make the playoffs. Nice try though.

                        He was in the stands though. Didn't look too under the weather (Kangas).

                                I want to believe that (I think he needs to do that) but with our early schedule that may be tough. UND, Denver and Sconnie are 3 of the first 4 opponents I could see Lucia being a bit gunshy to give Kent starts there. (I hope he does but I wont blame him if he doesnt unless Kangas bombs)
