Re: 2012-13 WCHA Thread:Breaking Up is Hard to Do
Not as in starting a thread to claim, "I hate the Gophers" but as in, "My Spider senses indicate someone said something positive about a Gopher and I have to deflate it". It's more subtle but the frequency permeates.
You may want to go back through and re-read the conversation. I'll recap:
First, I was responding to "UpNorthHockey" showing him my reasons for including Wisconsin in my top 4. In my reasoning, I stated that I think Zengerle is the best player in the conference and would be my front-runner for the Hobey at this point in time.
Then, mnstate0fhockey chimed in saying he largely agreed, but that he would put Bjugstad atop his list of best players in the conference.
Then, mnstate0fhockey and I had a small back and forth where we agreed to disagree on this point.
Then, mnstate0fhockey claimed that Bjugstad had arguably the best shot in college hockey.
Then, the **** hit the fan.
Hopefully that clears it up for you. You may think I hate the Gophers, but in reality I don't. Certainly, I dislike them, but on a similar level to Wisconsin. Minnesota is a very respectable program, and have arguably the greatest history of any program that plays college hockey. The only team I would rather North Dakota beat would be Denver, and the only team I hate to lose to more would be DU. But for the last time, I have no hidden agenda against Minnesota.
Now, does anyone know where the hell I can get some nice Ugg boots?
