Minnesota @ Ohio State: 3/7 & 3/8

We all know your team is good but you guys are the most arrogant bunch of people i have ever seen. Besides Minnesota being the better team the big difference tonight was the Gophers putting in 2 rebounds infront of the ohio state net and the buckeyes could not do the same when the game was close. Tomorrow is a new day.

Do goals count differently by location? And if having fun and playing a bit is arrogant....

I still think OSU will give it more tomorrow night and no one should assume anything tomorrow night.

OSU was lucky the game wasn't on regular ice. ;)

I don't think OSU will roll over, but it's not outrageous in the least to suggest the Gophers come away with 5, and that has nothing to do with history beyond the current season.

OSU rolled over last night. 4 points is one point away. Personally I'm going to say sweep now.

I left the game after the second period. I do not normally do that, but the way we came out not ready to play and getting dominated throughout, didn't see any point in staying. The team decided not to show up, so why should I hang around. I may go to tomorrow's game since it's senior night. It was disappointing to see us come out playing that poorly this late in the season. I definitely didn't go into this weekend expecting to sweep, but I expected us to be competitive, which we were not tonight. There was never a point in that game where I thought we were going to come back and win. Congrats Minnesota fans, you called it ... sweep. We will probably be a little more competitive tomorrow night if we clean up all the sloppiness that I witnessed tonight, but I don't expect a W for us. If there is any positive about tonight, at least Rohlik and our team know what they need to work on to get to that level. Oh, and thanks to Coach Lucia and the Gophers for calling off the dogs in that third period when they could have run it up on us. We did nothing defensively all night to stop Minnesota.

Well, maybe you had your eyes closed for the first period, because if I had not seen the actual goals in that first and you told me it was 2-0, I would have been sure it was Stickers that was on top. Your team took it to us in the first, and THEN they disappeared. You have some good, quick forwards that seemed to ( especially in the first ) be able to get right in on net by flying in and turning their shoulder to cut to the front of the net while our d-men tried to push you to the outside. In that way your team reminds me of UMDTC Duluth. You are not too far back, but I am afraid we will have to crush you tonight.:)

Your team had a great first period with no puck luck. Wilcox had something to say about that, but it could have been a different game if something went in for your guys.

Some Gopher fans leave early, but not usually until well into the third period. I don't approve because they are setting a poor example for children and the uninitiated. I grew up on the Iron Range. We don't leave hockey games early - even for a beer. However, I could understand you deciding to leave early for a few beers. ;)

Who knew there were so many movies you could watch online?

And all I had to do was send my account information to a nice man in Nigeria.

Anyway, so, who won the game last night?

That's how I feel the game went as well. The gophers really didn't take the game over until Wilcox made that save while he was on his butt with the score 3-1. A goal there and we gave a game instead Minnesota comes back and scores 2 quick ones and that was the game.

I think the real surprise for me was someone calling Gopher fans arrogant and apparently expecting that to bother us.

Guess these newbies from the old CCHA have a lot to learn about hockey and hockey fans.

Yeah, I mean like, OSU just ran into a hot goaltender is all. Everything will be fine tonight.

That is so hilarious Steve, and so right on!!! Just goes to show my feelings that the CCHA didn't know diddly about hockey, despite occasionally producing a decent team here or there. lol.


And the other thing that really surprised me was that it was an Ohio St fan?! Really? Hasn't he ever seen or heard an OSU fb fan discussing football with a Gopher fan before?!

somehow, I just get the feeling I will never get suspended trolling in an Ohio State thread.
 
Re: Minnesota @ Ohio State: 3/7 & 3/8

I'm so arrogant about Gopher hockey I'm convinced if the team put on football pads they would put a beat down on the tOSU football team, too. At the Horseshoe.

Never might be a bit strong, but I'm pretty sure we'll have passed mandatory retirement age before the fans of tOSU rise to the level that it's a real possibility.

One of my golden rules too. Never leave or turn off a hockey game early.
