Correct me if I'm wrong, but that's 8 of the 10 Mr. Hockey Finalists going somewhere other than the mighty Gophers!
      Don't worry, they'll somehow count it as a personal victory when any of those kids wins anything. It'll be just like they WERE playing for the Gophers.

      A lot like Canada in that regards who somehow saw the Bruins winning the Cup as a victory for Canada because of the players on Boston.

      I mean, I'm happy to see Steve Stricker win golf tourneys, but I don't ever see those as some sort of victory for our state.

              That's rather amazing, considering what the rodent fan wote about the sue and UW getting leftovers.....looks like tDon is getting his state's leftovers.

              And yeah, sign Mario Lucia up at UW. That would be awesome.

                They're called Canadian recruits...do you not pay attention to your own roster?!?

                  So you are saying that Canadian hockey players are better than MN hockey players?

                    The Gophers can't take 25 kids each year...You're not the brightest are you? Also, where did I say Lucia took the right kids? He gets his choice, but he makes a lot of mistakes picking those. If he wanted Lee, Archibald, Brodzinski (btw you're joking with this one right?...maybe his brother, but the SCSU one won't be that good), Cameranesi, Daly, Fogarty, Labate, and Hendrickson than he would have them.

                    Brock Nelson we had no chance becuase he is pratically Canadian / North Dakotian. Everson wanted to be a Gopher, but his mommy made him go to Harvard.

                    Bottom line is they are Lucia's left overs. Clearly Lucia needs help identifying the talent...but, that's not the point I was making....so your response is nullified...I win!

                      Yes of course...look at the NHL. MN has the best players in the USA hands down though.

                        the last several years the # of Canadians on the UW roster was = to or less than minnesotans dude

                        Lucia doesn't need help in identifying talent, the kids are just choosing to go where they'll develop into NHL caliber talents or get coached by people who will make them NHL ready. namely Mike Eaves, and probably hackstol

                            I was just teasing, but come on. You know exactly what I meant. Are you going to deny the fact that a kid growing up playing hockey in Minnesota has better odds of playing D1 hockey than a kid growing up playing hockey in Wisconsin? It's a numbers game. About 2.5x as many kids play hockey in MN than in WI.

                              I guess that 6>5 4>2 stuff really pizzes them off!

                              Eaves should recruit Mario Lucia and steal that kid from the rodents...their fanbase would implode quicker than the metrodome after a 3-hour snowstorm
                              I think my signature lists 7 "National Championships", not 7 "NCAA National Championships". So, let me see if I understand you correctly? We can't count our championships in '29 and '40 because the NCAA wasn't around yet? Maybe it would have been if your school didn't decide to not support their hockey program for roughly 30 years?

                                They should count.
