    Sounds like we need to fire up the Negatrometer.

      I think this will be a great series. The two teams are very evenly matched. It's a big rivalry series. MN has nothing to lose, so coming out flat, or lacking effort won't be a problem. Because it's the playoffs I think there is also a good chance we won't see all the after-the-whistle monkey business that has plagued this series a little over the last few seasons.
      Why will what's plagued the Gophers all season suddenly be no problem? This team has had repeated opportunities to improve their position and repeated failed to come out with intensity. Didn't matter if it was a rival or a nobody, they've come and played flat or stupid or uninspired hockey (you pick the adjective). I see no reason to expect a turnaround now.

            And on top of it being our last 2/3 games we would have to live with the thought that it was the Sue that ended our season.

              Wouldn't be the first time, and it certainly shouldn't be the last.

                The Sioux are pretty close to being in the NCAA tourney whether they win or not this weekend.

                  I agree I would love to see them pull the upset and advance but they have shown no consistency at all this year . And you are right they have had ample oppurtunities to improve thier situation and have showed up flat as pancake

                      Gophers have confidence against the sioux this year, and if it doesn't turn into arrogance, and how could it they know it's do or die, that should be all it takes. Continue the dominance.

                      Gophers in 3. 5-1 Friday, 2-3 Saturday, 3-1 Sunday.

                        you forgot what happened at the Ralph earlier in the year... The goofs always seem to play us tough no matter what happens but this is on Sioux home ice. Minnesota has a chance to win this series but they will have to play pretty amazing hockey over the course of several days... something they haven't been very good at this year.

                          What dominance?
                          These two teams were pretty close in games this year. Each team had a "blowout" win over the other, and then the two ties.
                          I like chocolate milk and Kate Beckinsale and Lauren Graham and Brooke Burke and Elisha Cuthbert and Eva Longoria.

                            The Gophers have absolutely been dominate lately in this series! Just look at their record at REA and overall since 06-07!

                            At REA: 1-4-1
                            Overall: 3-8-3
