Minnesota hosts Penn State: 2/28 & 3/1

[state of hockey]

How did people start calling it the Excel? I see it far too often.

Drives me nuts. I blame it on phones and tablets autocorrecting, though.

Sounds like you sat by some of the more knowledgable Wisko fans.

Yes. With them it can always be worse...

The Wisco fans I sat by at the Excel didn't have that excuse. They paid little attention to the game talking earnestly about the most inane things. One would then turn to the other asking where the puck was.

Hey, it's tough to follow a game between stuffing your face with bratwurst and shoving your snout into a beer cup.

At least with this series being at home we'll be able to follow the puck along the boards. Finding a puck against boards with yellow at the base is much easier than a navy one like PSU has. Wonder who made that decision as I'm not sure I've ever seen a dark color base.

In arrogant SCSU thinking (and grammar) I 'except' a sweep.

I too except a sweep, but I accept that every weekend. The wife and little'uns will be gone and that makes me grin, expect I wish it were an opponent that, well, exited me more. JBSU proud.

Bring on the Penn St fa.....errrr, never mind. Bring on the SUCS, Michigan, sconnie, and possibly UND fans. Maybe Biddco too.

A sweep of this series would all but wrap up the regular season title for the Gophers.
