Re: All Things Denver-The Real XXXIV
What are DU fans thoughts on Mayfield? I expected a good solid dman this weekend but saw nothing but a cheap hack. Is he always like that?

He ****es me off. Can't control his emotions. Coach should bench his *** but that will never happen.

DU a classic bubble team again. NCAA birth riding on the trip to Minny.

Re: All Things Denver-The Real XXXIV
I'm sure bad penalties played a big part in this loss, but the thing that was painfully obvious to me was the HORRENDOUS power play. I have never seen a worse DU power play over the course of one game. Three PP in a row, and absolutely zero good chances. Clearly the coaches need to work up something new, because that was just terrible.
Goals in the last 10 seconds of two different periods hurt the cause. But surprisingly enough, DU was still in the game after those. Nobody stepped up to make a play.
I guess momentum doesn't count for much in college hockey. It's just so random how bad a team will be, when you expect that they will come with their A game.

Re: All Things Denver-The Real XXXIV
Mayfield's first penalty came during a stoppage of play! Rabbit ears will get you every time. PP was ineffectual, to be sure, but part of that has to be attributed to the "Hostile and Abusives." No? I'm hopeful but not optimistic about playing on the "ocean of ice" next week in rodentland. I would surely like someone to crosscheck Rau into the cheap seats as payback for what he did to JZ last year. Punk.

I just skimmed through the DVR of last night's game, and I - being the expert hockey evaluator that I am - think Danny Doremus should not have been given a major penalty for that hit. Yes DU takes alot of dumb penaltys, but those referees were pretty marginal. I also enjoyed watching the Mayfield's scrum at the very end; it reminded me once again why I love the college game so much. These are boys. They don't really hate each other. During that entire incident, Scott and the UND guy were smiling, laughing and their jaws were flapping. I've seen NHL and Pro-Minor league hits, scrums, fights... and sometimes there's REAL hatred. The kids at the collegiate level are just having old time hockey fun. Some of these so-called "rivals" played together as mites, bantam, juniors; and although they wear different jerseys now - later this summer, they could be roommates at an NHL development camp, and one day could very well be blood brothers on an NHL team, hoisting the Stanley Cup together. It's really intriguing.

You have to give credit to UND's coaching staff. The adjustments they made to their kill were the difference. Friday night DU moved the puck at will during the PP. Saturday UND pressured our D and prevented a smooth cycle. DU had no answer for it.

Shake off Saturday, get in a good week of practice, and sweep the goofs.

Dear God, please forgive me for thinking, let alone saying, anything that any rodent lover anywhere might find offensive about one of their precious sweet boys. Amen.
P.S. Lord: please let the rodent lovers/defenders/jock sniffers of the world know what tu quoque argumentation is, so they can stop embarrassing themselves.
Oh, and Lord, this weekend please let somebody lower the boom on that cheap shot artist Rau, and knock his dik in the dirt.

No need for Old Pious prayers. What goes around always comes around. Rau's hit was obviously payback for Zucker's gooner...that's already paid in full.

Take your grinning emoticon and shove it up Rau's a*s.
