Re: WCHA first round: UAA @ Minnesota
This will definitely be an interesting series. I think Anchorage is solid enough to keep the games close, and I wouldn't be surprised if this went three, or even if Anchorage pulled the upset. That being said, I think Minnesota is playing significantly better over the past month or so. If Patterson keeps up his play, I could definitely see Minnesota making a Stalock like run all the way through the Final Five. Even if he doesn't, I think Minnesota has enough firepower to take this series. I think Minnesota wins in two, but both games are close.North Dakota

Re: WCHA first round: UAA @ Minnesota
I wouldn't really be terribly surprised by any outcome. Even with the Gophers' play being much better of late, I can't forget what was happening earlier in the season. Plus, I remember Anchorage being a pretty physical team, the Gophers showed this last weekend that they don't respond to that very well.the state of hockey is good

Re: WCHA first round: UAA @ Minnesota
state of hockey,
Gophers 8-4-4 in 2011.
Seawolves 9-7 in 2011.
I would think that should give the team some measure of confidence yes. Not just beating Mankato. The knowledge that they beat the Gophers at the end of January should buoy them a bit as well. It lets them know they're capable of beating the Gophers on their home ice. Being the first WCHA team to win a game against the Gophers at The John in the WCHA Playoffs a couple of years ago should also help with a positive mindset about the series.
Slap Shot,
Nothing about saying they'd come home before this playoff series is "cute". What would you do? Assume you're going to lose your road playoff series? I'm sure as Gopher fans you don't think there's much of a chance that the Seawolves will make it to the Final Five. Nevertheless, it's something that needs to be considered. I did say I "assumed" the team would travel back to Alaska because there is that consideration that they may indeed need to be in Minneapolis in two weeks. In any case, I could be wrong and perhaps they're staying. I know Spring Break for the Anchorage School District is this week. I cannot recall exactly which week UAA takes it's spring break so perhaps that will be a factor in the choice of whether they come back or stay.
Your characterization of my (clearly stated) assumptive answer to the question is the only "cute" thing I've read in this thread. Nice first post "Francis".Last edited by uaafanblog; 03-06-2011, 05:32 PM.
