Minnesota hosts North Dakota: Let the hate flow - 11/4-11/5

Re: Minnesota hosts North Dakota: Let the hate flow - 11/4-11/5

Siouxper fun game! First game I've seen this year. Gophers looked great and controlled a good portion of this game. Crisp passing, winning tons of battles and some great, high quality shots. A couple of softies to start but we recovered very nicely. On the other hand I imagine that the Sioux are better than what they showed last night and expect we'll need that same kind of effort tonight if we are to compete. Go Gophers!

What's most interesting (at least to me) about this is that Minnesota counts the 8 (or so) wins against the uncoached club teams in between WWI and WWII, but they don't count the one loss and one tie. They also don't count the numerous wins that North Dakota's club team had over Minnesota's club team. Also, North Dakota's hockey program was founded in the 1946-1947 season.

We don't count those club team wins because they make us look less fabulous. :rolleyes: Besides, what would a rivalry be without minor discrepancies? Suffice to say it is a fantastic one. Nice to see you're back, fs23

The relevant question now is whether wins against Big 10 schools are considered club team wins for PW purposes. After last night's embarrassing tie, I hope so.

The penalties were't solely responsible for the shot disparity nor the Gophers controlling most of the play, and certainly aren't why the Horn let in at least 2 soft goals.

Glad to see you continue to live up to your name! Do you think anyone can teach Brad "Dingle" Berry to count to five by game time tonight? I see he learned from Hack Stool to keep trying to change his lines on a called icing.

I didn't like either of the first 2 goals even if one might have been screened, the Boeser goal was a very soft shot that trickled past as he moved too far to his left (and generally looked out of sorts) and the Jost goal he could easily have poke-checked the puck off his stick. A lot of blame on that goal goes to his teammates too though for failure to tie anyone up behind the net and Collins could have moved from the man he and (?) were doubled up on in front, but still. His positioning seems off in general and doesn't look very composed right now.

Sure feels good to scratch old sores again. Strange how that works. In that sense, the gophers are one of life's great mysteries.

Quite a few Tractors blocking traffic on I94 today..The Green Hoard of the Evil Empire must be going to Minneapolis to cheer on their Canadian Bred Storm Troopers!

That it does. Life is good again. Hate saying this, but win or lose, I'm so glad these teams are playing each other. This is a matchup that is just meant to be.

I like Canucks. Give me more. They are well mannered and smell much better than Sotans.

Agreed. Especially Canucks named Mike. There were no more well mannered Canucks than "Friendly" Mike Commodore and "Gentleman" Mike Prpich.

Must be a raunchy and odorous locker room for the Fawks with 12 of them in there.

Most years a tie in Mariucci would be considered acceptable. Now they're on the ledge over on ss.com.

Personally, I think last night was good for B1G hockey. And we will all be better off once they gain a little respect.

Most of the people on SS.com are morons.
