    You totally redeemed yourself with this one. Nice work.

      Is your hypothetical banner that "Jan Brady U" is hanging going next to the "Yay, we beat the Gophers. Our season is complete" banner that you Gophers fans have imagined.
      As Gopher fans, we have no reason to imagine banners.

        Sorry, I was rewatching the 3rd period from last night. And, yes I think the Gophers win 90% of the games played against that UND team if both teams play to their potential. The biggest difference is defense and goaltending. That is where the games between these two teams are won and lost. UND is worse in those facets and loses.
        Bottom Line: If you deserve to win the national championship then don't worry about who you play, when, and where. Just keep winning.
        Exception: You are right about the refs. They, no doubt, have it in for <insert your team name here>!

          Is the defense for UND that bad? Granted this is one game, but my sources say they have underperformed this year. Could next year be worse?

          MacWilliam - Graduating
          Forbort - Flight Risk? He isn't developing. Is it time to bolt?
          Simpson - Flight Risk?
          Gleason - Graduating

          With only LaDue and Crisfield coming in would they accelerate Keaton Thompson? In looking at other future D recruits Hak is still going after the big, burly D that may have the same foot speed as me.

            No.

            As for next year, Forbort could leave early. I think he has played extremely solid this year, with the exception of 1 game. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised if he came back for a senior season.

            I would be surprised if Simpson left early. He is very young (19) for being a junior. He has played better this season, and seems to be improving quite a bit since his Freshman season.

            Losing MacWilliam and Gleason will certainly hurt, but I also expect the rest of our blueline to continue to improve. I wouldn't mind seeing Panzarella get more ice time...he's very similar to MacWilliam in my opinion. Add LaDue and Crisfield (and potentially Thompson) and the blueliners should be better.

            Also, in looking at this years d-corps, keep in mind that we had a change in coaching there. I think that is at least partially responsible for the below average (for UND) numbers defensively...primarily in shots allowed.

            Either way, it's an interesting question, and could certainly be an issue for next season.

                Just to be clear I was talking about the men's team. I'm not sure the UND men could beat the Minnesota women's team more than 50% of the time but they would sure give us a run for our money.

                  I think the 90% idea is preposterous. No way the Gophs could win that high a percentage. Or ar we still competing for the most over-top-statement?

                    60% of the time, we beat them every time.

                        I don't go to Culvers very often. Any Whioux fans want my tickets from last night for some free Culvers?

                          Watched that game. Where's that Gleinke kid going? Looked like a man among boys out there. Silly.

                              25 Mitch MacMillan–10 Corban Knight–7 Danny Kristo
                              16 Mark MacMillan–27 Carter Rowney–15 Michael Parks
                              9 Drake Caggiula–28 Stephane Pattyn–19 Rocco Grimaldi
                              8 Dan Senkbeil–17 Colton St. Clair–11 Derek Rodwell

                              2 Andrew MacWilliam–5 Nick Mattson
                              18 Dillon Simpson–20 Joe Gleason
                              4 Derek Forbort–24 Jordan Schmaltz

                              31 Zane Gothberg
                              33 Clarke Saunders

                              Well, I guess we'll get to see what St. Clair and Gothberg get to do. Personally, I don't know if St. Clair is a good fit on the 4th line. If we're not going to pair Grimaldi with two high end finishers, I would prefer to see St. Clair with Grimaldi and Caggiula...that line was pretty strong earlier in the season.

                                Leaving for the game in 10 minutes. I guess Whioux fans can always use the tickets from tonight for Culvers...
