Re: Big Ten > NCHC
Find one post where a St. Cloud State fan demanded, asked for, or as phrased in your pathetic attempt at trolling, begged for respect, you clown. You moron. You are the only one who brought up respect, loser. If you don't respect me because of the hockey team I root for, that is an indictment of your character, not mine. ST. CLOUD STATE IS THE #1 TEAM IN THE ONLY RANKINGS THAT MATTER. You don't like it? We don't care.
You know so little about college hockey, you just emit your verbal diarrhea, and then get clowned on, because pretty much everyone on this board knows more than you. Your BS claims about early departures. Talking trash about Motzko getting bronze at the World Juniors, not knowing that he coached the team to gold last year, and apparently not knowing that Lucia coached the team to a one and done when he was coach of the team. Saying St. Cloud is in "uncharted territory". What are you talking about? We have won regular season conference titles, have won conference tournament titles, have been #1 in polls, been #1 in the pairwise. So what territory are we in that we haven't been in before? You are just an idiot with knowledge of the Golden Gophers glory days, and little knowledge of anything outside of your backsliding program.
I am going to guess you weren't at the game last night. The Gopher fans at Sally's or at the game didn't have faith their team was going to win. There were zero Gopher fans talking trash. They know what the pecking order is right now. They are AT BEST the 3rd best team in the state right now. Probably 4th. So savor the flavor of the fortunate win the Gophers got last night. It is an outlier.
OF COURSE no JBSU fans came right out and said plainly, "Give us respect!!!" DUH!!! But indirectly its what SCSU fans have been doing. So emphatically pointing out how they are ranked #1, as if there is no possibility that they could be overrated, lol. DELUSIONAL maybe???
And oh, I know so little about college hockey? LMAO!!! Whatever dude. I guess you think because you say it, it must be true?? lol Because SCSU fans are the smartest hockey fans out there??? OMG, that is hilarious. For one, I'm not a hockey only fan, like you probably are. So OF COURSE the majority of posters in a NICHE forum like this should know more about a NICHE sport like hockey, than me. What do you want a medal or something? lol Might be the only medal an SCSU fan will ever earn???
I know that this year's coaches have coached other teams in the past, but all of you SCSU fans claim the past is completely irrelevant? That only THIS YEAR matters, so who cares what Motzko has done in the past??? Oh, I see, the past is only relevant when it helps out your argument, eh??? Sort of hypocritical, wouldn't you say?
And what? SCSU isn't in "uncharted territory"??? LMMFAO!!! So they have won season conference titles(PLURAL), and conf tourney titles(PLURAL) and have been #1 in the polls before? And have been #1 in the PWR??
Really???
Then how can you diss me for not believing your current #1 ranking in the PWR means ANYTHING, when your program has SO OFTEN been ranked highly, and has so often won WCHA or NCHC Conf Titles or Conf tourney Titles, and YET...
And YET...
And yet have only a .278 winning percentage in the NCAA tourney, and have only gotten to the Frozen Four ONCE IN ALL OF HISTORY???????????
You can't have it both ways, either your program IS NOT in uncharted territory, and hence is a bunch of CHOKERS, and has historically been OVERRATED, and hence there is no reason whatsoever to respect their current rank...
OR, or this year is different than the past, this year they are for real, unlike the past??? Is that what you are trying to say??? And if so, what is the evidence? SCSU's getting swept by Denver? SCSU's not getting a single win on the road vs #42 ranked Princeton?? SCSU's not able to win on the road vs the Gophers?
How are they different than past teams that seemingly choked??? I mean, if they didn't choke, then how do you explain their poor showing in the NCAA tourney, I mean, if they won Conf Titles(Plural) and Conf Tourney Titles(Plural), how on earth couldn't they get to the Frozen Four more than that one single solitary time???
As for being only the 4th best team in the state, and an outlier, may I remind you that the Gophers SWEPT Clarkson, and got a road win against UND and now have a win against #1 ranked SCSU, too.
Name me another team in the nation with 3 wins vs Top 4 rated teams??? It sure isn't SCSU, lol.
