Tuesday games are a bit odd, but Thursday is fine with me. I consider Thursday part of the weekend anyways.

Some people just like to complain for the sake of complaining I think.

I know you can't please everyone, but at a certain point I agree with the last part of your post.

Yeah when the Wild play during the week I never see kids at the X, it's way too late for them. And the adults who work they stay away too, cuz you know it's way too late on a work day. Awesome, I love the excuses.

BTW, I'm not saying I don't like weekend games. I just think the hand wringing over a weekday game here or there is pretty funny. Carry on

Complaining for the sake of complaining would be saying, "I don't like it on Thursdays because I like to read a book on Thursdays" or some such crap. Complaining because you can't bring your kids to the game or you have to work the next morning and don't like being out until midnight are legitimate reasons.

So basically the complaints are "it doesn't fit my personal schedule" And "think of the children!"

The Big Ten mandated a couple years ago that on one night Minnesota and MSU play a full 5 minutes of overtime, with Spartans getting the +1 on penalty kicks. So ... we've got that going for us.

Looking forward to watching the game tonight.

MSU will be ready, will play tough D and block lots of shots while trying to keep us to the outside on the large ice. The Gophers will need to crash the net hard and take away Hildebrand's eyes on shots from the point to score goals. Should be a good game.

Go Gophers!

Dam right!!!

And my kid is not going tonight, even though he's in high school. Taking a buddy instead. I might be late getting to work tomorrow.

Ugh I am actually nervous for this game. I don't want to watch, but I will.

I think the groundhogs win 3-1 tonight.

At Mariucci is one of the few series each year where I don't feel too bad if we go in and get utterly demolished. Hence, I am not nervous this weekend. Two points will make me happy, though it would be great if we could get three or more.

Because you have to work the next day? There must be a lot of unemployed fans at weekday Wild games.

Nick Lehr will be making the start in goal for Minnesota tonight. Adam Wilcox is day to day with a injury.

A huge opportunity for Nick, obviously, and we Gopher fans wish him the best of luck! Leaving the house for Mariucci now...

These BigTen announcers don't even try to hide their Minnesota bias, do they?
