2012 Frozen Four: Union vs. Ferris State; Minnesota vs. Boston College

Re: 2012 Frozen Four: Union vs. Ferris State; Minnesota vs. Boston College

Never said they didn't. They still didn't stoop down to UND's level, though. :D

Still goons though whether some Gopher fans want to accept it or not and therefore no better than the big, mean less penalized team from North Dakota.

Congrats to a young Minnesota Team on their deep run in the post season.If Parker Milner is'nt the MVP of the Frozen Four I don't know who is.He carried BC thru a barrage of quality Gopher scoring chances which could have kept the game very close and down to the wire.Sad to see the frustations boil over in the 3rd period it gives hockey a bad name and takes away from what was a hard fought fast paced game which came down to a very hot goaltender and opportunistic scoring by BC.Good luck to both teams Saturday night.

PIM's don't necessarily equate to gooniness. A hook, hold, or trip isn't gooning it up. The Gophers did a lot of that on Fridays when they didn't show up.

That being said, a few players last night went derpderp when they were being throttled. No way around it.

So kinda like I know gooniness when I see it and I only see it when UND does it.

Seriously nobody will care if BC wins except for a few db's here and their team and alumni. College hockey needs a good story, a good example to inspire the masses. Not Boston College. You have Kreider, one marginal NHL prospect for the 1s place Rangers. Mark my words no disrespect to him or anything against his character but he'll never amount to anything in the NHL. Ferris State wins. I'll bet 2K on it straight up

You have to be kidding me, this must be Hokydad's second handle. Kreider is 6'3" 250lbs of hockey machine if he doesn't amount to anything it will be because someone stuffed him in a closet and chained him to the wall.

There is no question Milner played a he!! of a game, but, man, the gophers just flat missed a lot of wide open nets. I had the feeling that the way they were dominating in the first but not scoring if BC came back in the second and got # 2 it would be all over. It's hard to keep big Mo when you are dominating but not scoring and the opponent comes back to get one. I've seen enough of BC handing it to UND, but boy they are fun to watch. They also missed chances to bury pucks, but their passing game in transition and in the slot area is at another level.

And another thing. There is not much doubt that UND will be kicking UMinn's arse next year. Can't wait.

It's really tough to name the MVP a day and a half before the championship game even starts.

I think I'm more upset with Matson and Condon then I am with the loss. I don't like that crap. Never have.
 
Re: 2012 Frozen Four: Union vs. Ferris State; Minnesota vs. Boston College

Ummm, no. Twice now I have implied that a few Gophers went goony last night. Feel free to keep making assumptions, though.

Well yes. Truthfully I'm just using you as a ploy to argue with the delusional forklympian.
 
Re: 2012 Frozen Four: Union vs. Ferris State; Minnesota vs. Boston College

Did the largest Gopher go after the smallest Eagle in the handshake line? I can't remember...

You're right it is different, Blood was hit with a cheap shot from behind after the game had ended form a player that ran and hid, thus sending him into a fury which ended up being misdirected at an uninvolved player. Hansen, unprovoked, used a weapon to slash and cross check to the face of an opponent with intent to injure. they are the same in that it is something that is unacceptable from a captain or assistant captain of your team. Both players had spent the same number of years in their organization but we are told that rodent players are so much more saintly and Lucia doesn’t stand for that. What I can’t stand is the same people spout labels of goon and thug for a whole team about that situation are dismissing the actions last night as “not what our program does”. If it not what your program does and Donny boy is such a gentlemen why didn’t he sit Hansen down after that bush league bullcrap? I guess it’s pointless to argue your hypocrisy though…. With your fan base being set to die on a cross this afternoon and all.
 
Re: 2012 Frozen Four: Union vs. Ferris State; Minnesota vs. Boston College

Wow, congrats to BC, they looked as good as advertised. Gopher D looked their youth last night for the first time in a while.

I would wish the Eagles luck for Saturday, but I don't think they'll need it. I'm sure Ferris will play a better defensive game than the Gophers did, but I don't see how Ferris can generate enough offense to threaten the Eagle D and goaltending - both are just too strong. Should be the Eagles 5th title on Saturday and well deserved after this season by York and company.

ETA: Can someone teach Thorne how to use a pronunciation guide? Did he butcher the other teams' names as badly as he did the Gophers'?

thanks, nice post. I am glad BC and Minnesota are going to be playing more in the coming years, good for both schools and programs and college hockey in general

Halo alert!

Congrats to BC, hell of a team and I love they way they play the game. It's amazing how quickly they go from collapsing around their net to offense, love it. Add to the mix they never are standing still - with or without the puck - and it's a thing of beauty to watch....even when they are spanking the Gophers.

Best of luck tomorrow.
 
Re: 2012 Frozen Four: Union vs. Ferris State; Minnesota vs. Boston College

Dear Gopher fans,

I am going to miss all you in a year.

Best wishes,

UND faithful
 
Re: 2012 Frozen Four: Union vs. Ferris State; Minnesota vs. Boston College

LOL, Jerry called off the dogs after rolling it up. BC could have but didn't score more goals and then you guys goon it up when you know you're going to lose. That cheapshot says it all and deserved that 5 minute major.

Thank you for admitting the trap works for BC, almost NHL like. York is awesome!
 
Re: 2012 Frozen Four: Union vs. Ferris State; Minnesota vs. Boston College

Speaking of that, who will Gopher fans name the goons of the Big Ten and say "At least we aren't _____" when Minnesota goons it up? Penn St. is my guess.
