    UAA completely outplayed the Gophers in the playoffs last year and deserved to move on to the Final Five. Every aspect of the game UAA was better in than Minnesota. That scares me for this weekend because I think UAA is a better team this year and they always plays Minnesota tough in Anchorage. I am calling a split; Gophers take Friday night but UAA roars back for the Saturday night W.
    I completely agree. They out worked us, played more disciplined, and capitalized on their opportunities. They are a solid team. The Gophers have to stay patient. I predict a split as well.

        It's probably a good thing this weekend has no TV. AA's 1-1-3 is soo boring to watch anyways. Glad I'm not a Sea Pup fan and have to watch that product every week!

          What was the single largest contributor to the Gopher's getting swept at The John in last season's WCHA playoff series versus UAA:
          A. John Hill's inability to coach the defense.
          B. Gopher forwards couldn't score.
          C. UAA was the more talented team.
          D. Gopher's played zero team defense.
          E. Kamal.
          F. None of the Above (explain) ...
          F. Going with the Fezzik's defense. We wanted to make you feel like you were doing well, but then let it slip away.

              The pig brings up a valid point, do the Seawolves still play the boring trap kind of game or do they actually try to skate now? And I don't need a "boy am I great because I can find a you tube video" kind of response back.

                Within 10 years I predict UAA makes the NCAA.
                Slap Shot - 444 might want to consider a restraining order.
                dggoddard - Minnesota is THE ELITE Program in all of college hockey.
                wasmania - you have to be the very best to get ice time with the great gophers!

                  I know it's a waste of time to argue with you, but, the Seawolves significantly outshot the Gophers in the playoff series last season. Not exactly what is expected if you are being trapped by a slow-down team. We are talking about 2011, not 2007.

                    First of all, most teams use a neutral zone trap, in some form, depending on the game and the situation. Granted, AA has used it more than most team's in recent memory, but I would hardly generalize them as a trap team. Compared to a team like UMD and Minnesota, for instance, yes, they generally seem to prefer to play a slower paced defensive game. However, that doesn't mean they are incapable of pushing the pace and using quick transitions to take advantage of turnovers and other opportunities.

                      Don't get too excited. UAA played well and the Gopher stunk up the joint. But UAA was the turd the next week as the were handled by CC. They were a better UAA team, but not good. Last year the Gophers had trouble beating the bad teams...thus the loss to your Seawolves.

                      The Gophers may well lose again this weekend, but it won't be a repeat.

                      Oh and if you go to the games, enjoy a burrito!

                        we weren't handled by CC, we dominated them most of the game, they had a lil puck luck that night, even tiger fans will admit that.

From what I've heard ,Seawolves are listed as an ingredient in Gopher Chow.

                              God, I can't wait until this rivalry goes by the wayside. This thread is a dud. More political talk than hockey talk. Yeah!
