Minnesota Gophers Season Thread - 2016-2017

Anyone have any "inside information" on what the starting time will be for next Saturday night's game against the Mavs? The schedule is still showing "TBA" which is pretty ridiculous for a game that's just 8 days away.

Had to wait for B1G to decide when the FB team would play.

No TV this weekend. Sunday's game could be tough. Might have to MP3 it with a solo earbud while watching the NFL at the local watering hole on Sunday. Boo.
 
Re: Minnesota Gophers Season Thread - 2016-2017

Just to be clear, both games are being streamed online. I believe the first game NE is free and the BC game is $7. Both streams should be good. Only unfortunate part (for me) is that they're not on BTN2GO so you can't watch them later.

Does someone have an address for the streams?

Time for Lehr to get a start?
If history is any indicator, Schierhorn should turn in a good performance on Sunday. But this is now the 3rd game where the result had been affected by his (to put it nicely) shaky play.

They need another option in goal.
 
Re: Minnesota Gophers Season Thread - 2016-2017

Both you guys said what I was going to say. To put it simply, their goalie was better than our goalie, and we lost because of it. Honestly every time the puck gets anywhere near Schierhorn I think it's going to end up in our net.

Hey.....that's our line. You won't have much trouble finding quotes strikingly similar to the above in the NU season thread.

It's back to Bad Friday/Good Saturday. Sunday is a wild card.

Based on what happened in this particular game we clearly earned the right to plagiarize your line. Good luck the rest of your season.

So yeah.....big win for the Gophers yesterday huh?
Going into the two games not many Gopher fans would have put money on the team losing to Northeastern and then coming back to beat BC. Most, including me, would have guessed the opposite.

agreed. I have no idea how Schierhorn played on Sunday. It was good enough to win, but it sounds like he had a real bonehead play to end the 1st when he tripped a BC player with his stick and drew a minor.

I was sitting at the opposite end of the arena, so I didn't get a good view of the play. There was a scrum in front of the net and we didn't know the call was on Schierhorn until the beginning of the 2nd period.

Overall, he was Good Schierhorn today and made some good saves and re-directed rebounds the way he should. Overall, I would say he played pretty darn good.

Thread slipped to the third page after the rollercoaster of a weekend. Points not horrible, play not encouraging.

It makes MSU (who is 3-0-1 over the last 4, including a visit to UND) series seem pretty challenging. And if we cannot sweep a team like MSU on the road, it seems unlikely we'll be winning the league again. How's that for a Monday morning pick me up?

Concise & accurate summary, right on the money.

The way the season has gone so far, every B1G series looks to be challenging, even at home.

And if we cannot sweep a team like MSU on the road, it seems unlikely we'll be winning the league again.
Right now I'd put the odds of that happening around 40%. Even that may be optimistic, with Saturday's game still fresh in my mind. :mad:

How's that for a Monday morning pick me up?
One can only hope you won't have to dish out another one next Monday morning. ;)
