    Sort of close.
    Doesn't surprise me, the games and series always do seem to be pretty close to even.

    Gophers better be ready.

      Well that's a perfect record!

        I hope there aren't any impending floods anywhere in North America because every sandbag in North America is located in Rodentsota right now.

          Well naturally. They're trying to plug some holes.

                Gopher Bucky preview from Gophersports

                http://www.gophersports.com/sports/m...011415aaa.html

                The No. 13/16 Gopher Hockey program continues the 2014-15 campaign this weekend with the Border Battle as Big Ten rival Wisconsin visits Mariucci Arena for a pair of league games. Minnesota (10-7-1 overall, 1-2-1-0 Big Ten) and Wisconsin (2-12-2, 0-2-0-0) open the series at 8:10 p.m. CT on Friday, Jan. 16 (TV: BTN; Stream: BTN2Go; Radio: 1500 ESPN/Gopher Radio Network) before meeting again on Saturday, Jan. 17 at 5:05 p.m. CT (TV: FOX Sports North; Stream: BTN2Go; Radio: 1500 ESPN/Gopher Radio Network).

                Hockey Day Minnesota 2015

                Saturday’s series finale falls on Hockey Day Minnesota -- an annual event that showcases hockey on the high school, college and professional levels throughout the state of Minnesota. The Gophers, who have been part of all eight Hockey Day Minnesota events prior to this year, are 5-2-1 all-time on Hockey Day Minnesota and are unbeaten in their last four appearances (3-0-1). Saturday’s game against the Badgers marks the first time the two border rivals have played as part of the event.

                Video with coach Don Lucia and a few players previewing the series.

                    They might be ready to score the first goal of the game and then crap the bed from there...?

                      I'd have to check with Gurt. But I don't think Minnesota has ever scored first when facing a 2-12-2 Wisconsin team.

                        Get ready for the 0-0-5 forecheck from becky, bring on the boring hockey.

                        Will they even cross the offensive blueline?

                          Only in the second period to make a line change.

                            Do we keep putting them on their 10% PP to try to open it up a little bit?

                              It seems like the typical Wisconsin-Minnesota series at Mariucci will see Rumpel playing out of his mind for one game yet having to settle for a tie and then the Badgers getting significantly outplayed in the other game and losing by 3-4 goals.

                              In the last couple of weeks, Wisconsin has played some of their best and worst hockey of the year. The Friday game against Tech was a complete disaster, but played a lot better the next two games (especially the first 57 minutes of the Friday BU game). Then they just get worked last Saturday after a respectable first period. So who knows what they'll roll out there this weekend.

                                I'd rest your sieves all weekend and just go without. Your first D back will be enough in front of the net. Oh.....wait......the rodent D don't actually play D too often, that may not work.
