Does LaPanta wear a rug too? He either has a horrible haircut or a horrible toupe, I can't tell which.

He's actually brought it up on air before, and he says it's his real hair.

His "superawesome tv announcer" voice is something I think is fake. That can't be the way he really announces/talks.

I hope you like crow. The multitude of pucks MN will put in will be the appetizer.

Just keep talking.

I think you should know by now, my Arrogance knows no bounds.

Well, that and the KoolAid I've been drinking is really potent.

How much vodka did you put in it? 50/50?

If Kangas plays like he did against UAA, the Gophs are in this game 2-2 or so. I know, I know, Wisky isn't UAA, but Kangas made those exact same saves last weekend. As to those calling Kangas a sieve before this game, I guess I don't have much to defend with besides agree with you for the time being. He certainly didn't look as amazing tonight. If Patterson doesn't get the start tomorrow night, I'll be surprised.

Get the split Gophs.

50/50? That's nothing for some of us, especially when the Gophs lose.

No water of life. Nectar of the gods: whiskey. And not even close to 50/50. I like 'em burned, but not Wisconsin-like.

During Bennett's days as a BU Terrier, he was known to almost flop down on the ice routinely, and was given nicknames by BU fans such as "Sir Flopsalot." My question for Badger fans is how does he look thus far? Are you guys happy with his play thus far, and also is he still "flopping'?

No open flames around here with all the paint thinner. We'll send you a can if the Badgers sweep.

He's looked fine and I haven't noticed any excessive flopping. He has given up a few juicy rebounds including a couple tonight, but overall he looks okay.

The problem is that neither of our goalies has had to stand on their head yet this year as we generally seem to outshoot our opponents. Tonight for instance, the Gophers had less than 20 shots(if I remember correctly). They attempted a whole lot more but our defense for the ages( ) blocked almost 30 shots.

We'll see what we've got in him when someone gets 35+ shots on him. we'll see if he can steal a game for us.

Different meaning for "burned." I like my whiskey/Cokes or 7&7's with a little bite to 'em. Many (actually probably most) bars don't "burn" them. The DT in Houghton does. So did (and maybe they still do) First Ave in Mpls, and of course, your local dive bars. The best bars burn 'em and then pour a "floater."*


*Floater: mix drink, pour a little more whiskey on top without mixing drink.

Edit: Gurt: I bet we attempted 30+ shots. The blocked shots are a strength of the traditional Badger team.

Re: Minnesota @ Wisconsin.. the greatest rivalry in college hockey.

Minnesota will have to be a desperate team tomorrow, but somehow I doubt they will be.

To be honest, the Badgers will also need a better effort tomorrow. We were not very crisp tonight and made a number of ill advised passes and flubbed on a few also. Just looked out of synch and at times, more than a little tired.

The first two periods were somewhat back in forth with each team dominating in the offensive zone at times. In the third, we employed the Eaves Duck and Cover shell strategy and Minnesota had it in our end for most of that.

Man I hate it when we go into the shell.

Sink? Like in the kitchen or bathroom?
