      Congratulations to the team on a gutty win against a very good team. CC is much better than I expected and our win, especially friday, was top notch. I loved our compete level and sense of urgency.
      Also thanks to all the alumni who have contributed over so many lean, lean years. This win did not just happen. Plenty of new facilities have been built and more are coming I'm sure. So this is a team win in the broadest possible way.
      I agree with HF this is frosting, but it is certainly nice frosting and I'll eat all I can get.

      Shirtless, can we become a tuc with one more win? I thought maybe we might after last night, but we're not on the radar in the pairwise and 28th in Kratch. If we do become a tuc, this will have some implications big time for a few people no doubt.

        I almost think I would rather have us play Denver. St, Clooud @ 7 PM will likely bring several hundred fans to the X, plus locals yokels who would hop on the wagon of any MN team first. With DU in the building at 2PM, Tech is probably assured of a mildly favorable crowd. Or, at least, a crowd of mostly empty seats.

        Regardless, we can beat either opponent so long as we bring our best game.

            ESPN is idiots. Tech will play Denver or SCSU. Tech can not play UND until the championship game.

              ESPN being idiots goes without saying. I was surprised they even knew college hockey was having tournaments.

                And since many of you weren't around the last time Tech was at the F5, you are invited to join the Gopher tailgate behind the Dairy Queen near the Xcel. Always a fun time. Just look for the flags.

                Rumor has it the tailgate starts at about 10am on Thu-Fri, and 8am on Sat.

                  Congrats to Tech on a great season so far. I think a lot of tUMD would like to see us meet again at tF5.

                    um, I meant "spank UMD again" in the nicest possible way... sir... if that's OK with you all.

                    Huskies are very intelligent and trainable. Huskies make an excellent jogging companion, as long as it is not too hot. Grooming is minimal; bathing is normally unnecessary.

                      It would a fun match up. Obviously I may be inclined to have the spankers become the spankees, if such a rematch were to occur. Hope it would be some good hockey. I always liked your fan base, not enough to marry a Techie, but you know what I mean. Good friendly sas-talk.

                              I played with the predictor but even if we win out there are some scenarios where Tech does not become a TUC, and I couldn't get us there without winning out.

                              Did the team get back yet?

                              Looking forward to thursday afternoon.

                                Really, I did exactly one scenario last night and it just happened to be Tech losing to UND in the final, and Tech was still a TUC.

                                edit:Running a bunch more scenarios, I can't find a single situation where Tech advances to the championship game and they're not a TUC. But really, who cares whether or not Tech finishes the season as a TUC, except for maybe NMU fans, since Tech being a TUC could give them a boost.
