Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

Let's be thankful this series is not in the "house of horrors" on Halloween weekend. Remember what happened last year :eek:
 
Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

Do you think there will be any purple cow costumes at Magness for Halloween? ;)
 
Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

This is homecoming and parent's weekend. Gwoz said most of the player's parents will be there this weekend and that an on-ice ceremony will occur between the 1st and 2nd periods of Saturday's game.

TV this weekend Friday FSN Rocky Mountain and FCS Central at 7:30 MT. None on Saturday. Videocast on Saturday at 7PM MT on Pioneer Vision at www.denverpioneers.com (pay).

Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

Anybody know off the top of their head if FS-Rocky Mountain will broadcast either (or both) of the games this weekend? I'll probably go look it up later, but figured that question was as good as any comment to get my checkmark in this thread :D

My first hope for the Mavs this weekend is PIM under 60 minutes total. Anything else positive (e.g. a PP goal would be nice) will be bonus.

I just posted the TV and video in the post below yours.

Anyone know the status of big Joe?
Day to day or week to week. Expect it to be a game time decision and if he's not 100%, he won't play.

I thought DU would miss him more against the Gophers. Clearly, I was wrong.
 
Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

Time to "brand" the maveicks, s11.

What if Chevy has another shutout on Friday?:D
Would you let him play Sat. to keep his shutout minutes streak keep growing?
 
Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

Mavericks fan here who lives in Denver--looking for 2 tickets for Friday's game and 1 for Saturday's game.

Shoot me an PM if you have tickets you want to unload.

Saturday, I'll be wearing my costume (The Dude) but Friday will be sporting Mavs gear.

Should be tickets available since they've been advertising all week. Alumni sometimes donate tickets back it so the school can resell them. Call the Magness ticket office.
 
Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

Let's see, how can I put this. It should be an "interesting" weekend.

YES. If he keeps playing this well, I wouldn't take him out unless he's tired or hurt. We need to rack up some wins while the goalie is hot. Murray will probably get a start in the next 2-3 series, but now isn't the time, unless Chevy implodes on Friday.

It would be pretty amazing if Chevy got another shutout, though that seems pretty unlikely. I'm torn about the shut out minutes record--it would be cool if he broke it, but Manno was one of my favorite players ever at DU. So I guess I'll be OK either way!

Here we go again.:D

Unless Chevy gets a shutout, I expect Murray to start. Double or nothing Sat. night?

Chevy only needs a little over 5 minutes to break Manno's record and it is a 2 edged sword. No doubt Chevy and Manno deserve the records and acclaim.

I agree with you-so we're betting on the same side. Murray starts Saturday unless....
And I agree with Pablo another shutout is improbable, but shutting out Minnesota back to back on their ice was also improbable. Highly improbable. :D
 
Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

Good news about Colborne. And I'm inclined to agree with DG about Murray starting Saturday.
 
Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

If Gwoz goes with Murray on Saturday, the defense (both forwards and back-liners) are going to have to give the same effort they gave last weekend in Minny. They can't leave Adam out to dry like they did in his previous two starts. Adam was a highly recruited goalie and already has a win ove CC notched on his belt. He just needs to be fed slowly into the WCHA grind. He will have some growing pains but he has the talent to be another of the fine Gwoz era goalies.
 
Re: Minn. State @ Denver. Halloween weekend

Its really hard to judge Murray on two starts without knowing who had the flu the past few weeks. Anyone who has watched DU hockey for any length of time knows that Saturday nights with the flu usually equals disaster.

I've seen DU's National Championship teams fold like an accordion against Tech or UAA when the flu bug hits town.

Its also possible that Murray had the flu.

If he goes Saturday, a big game won't surprise me.
