Looks like this tourney is going to happen. It should be a fun tourney.
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!
4 girls, 1 cup is the name. video sales should be outstanding... minnesota's economy could use all the help it can get.
Minnesota's economy is probably ten times the size of North Dakota, so not sure where this is coming from. Oh yeah, I forgot you are borderline ********.

We mourn for days after a loss, puff out our chests for a week or more after we win. We brave the cold for tailgates, our friends know not to ask about the game after a tough loss, we laugh, we cry, we BLEED hockey, specifically the maroon'n'gold. Many of us have a tattoo waiting in the wings, WHEN (not IF) the Gophers are champions again.

I can see how jan fans would be a bit testy about this subject as they realize they will probably never be able to drink from this cup...

Beersong had a great post on tPB. Basically the question is how many people will be there? They tried a similar thing a few years ago and 5,000 (or less) showed up for a game that didn't include the Gophers. And when the Gophers are playing, how many will be in attendance? 10,000? 11,000?
Plus you can say goodbye to UMTC visiting your arena.
I am excited of the possibility of this being a Final Five 2.0. And by 2.0 I mean a sequel to a blockbuster hit that won't come near what the Final Five.
Minnesota Cup is a dumb name, call it "The Hotdish"
Now now now, we all cannot find oil in our state...

The days of Minnesota visiting your arena often are going to be gone regardless. That's the reality of the situation.

Obviously. Without drunk UND fans to annoy everyone and puke everywhere, it just won't have the same charm.

Maturi seems to be telling us expect to see more Sacred Heart series and less in state rivalry games against other Minnesota schools. My take read between the lines old WCHA if you want to see the Gophers at your barn. I am not thrilled by his statement.

Basically this tournament is the Goofers saying we are helping the other Minnesota schools, we just won't go to their barn to do it. We will play them at the X or at Mariucci so that we don't have to leave the 494-694 loop for any non-conference games........

Well, they do have a scheduling agreement with Notre Dame already, and I heard they are working on one with BC/BU. So, it's not like they aren't ever going to leave the Twin Cities for out of conference games.
If they are going to maintain their 20 home game minimum (2 of which would be games in this tournament at the X), plus 10 road conference games, it doesn't leave a lot of non-conference games to play on the road.
