Ditto for #4 of the sinners...no time like the present to make that decision.

She's not nearly advanced enough to make the jump yet. Yoda says patience.

Connecticut showed up with a pretty nice team. Decent size, good speed, very solid in goal.

It was a fun game to be at tonight, a pretty good crowd for Friday 6pm with school not in session. It was the general public who showed up tonight and I am hoping for more of the same tomorrow afternoon.

On the ice, I wonder why the Gophers dressed under the allowed number of skaters,

[ManBehindTheCurtain]

Connecticut showed up again and demonstrated why they are league leaders in Hockey East.

But still not good enough to get a road victory over one of the Western elite.

Very entertaining hockey.

[ManBehindTheCurtain]

Very convincing.

Very convincing.

It takes a former Gopher to beat a Gopher it seems!

Frost has passed his best if used by date.

Whoa, shot fired across the bow. He's got half the Canadian u18 team coming in next year.

Maybe UConn isn't that good? Okay, they're not. They just eecked by a Merrimack team that Wisconsin throttled lol.

The tunnelers are just not that good...Been saying it all throughout the pre-season and season. There is a big talent discrepancy between the them and yuckeyes (also the sinners) which is due to poor past recruiting and getting their backside handed to them on transfers.

You do have to wonder how Minnesota did not win a title with players as good as Heise and Zumwinkle in their lineup. Maybe that does speak something to what ManBehindTheCurtain said. Well see about this staff after the next couple of years where the recruiting is better.

Also a former Colonial, a couple former Golden Knights, a couple BC Eagles, a former Badger, a couple former Bobcats, a former Maverick, a former Nittany Lion ...

:-)

[FiveHoleFrenzy]

Nice weekend for the tunnelers. As much as I downplay them that was pretty dam embarrassing for them to perform at that level for these two games.

Watts are you implying? LOL!!

If YOU'RE implying that Watts alone is the equal of that dozen players.... well, maybe you're right.

nailed it.

Uh, no. I usually trust your math, but not here.

In news more relevant to this thread, the world now knows why Gopher faithful (?) haven't been higher on this year's team. Maybe there will be brighter days ahead once MJ is golfing with Nick Saban and Muzzy is babysitting her grandchildren.

You can add myself and osualum86 to the ranks of your fans for Feb 16 & 17, maybe that will help? (Wink)
