Sucks. The split against Penn St was very disappointing but the squad bounced back with the sweep in Columbus. Now..........now comes the juggernaut that is Bye. No idea how the Gophers can come out of this weekend with any points....

Scooby, a sweep is a sweep. Glass should at least be at empty. Negative is a bit harsh. And show me a team that has ever gotten a point against Bye, if you claim your negative glass rating is based on this weekends expected outcome.

As long as this team is the worst in Minnesota and the best in the Big 10 the glass will be shattered (thus negative). The Big 10 is a joke and they've gotten swept out of Xcel two years in a row.

What other sport has 3 byes and a holiday break? No wonder the season seems endless. Can't do much about the mid season break, but you could end the season 3 weeks earlier and avoid the stupid week off before the Frozen Four.

We should start a petition to drop BYE from the schedule next year.

So since all they have left are B1G opponents, by that logic, they could win the rest of the season games and sweep the B1G tourney and they would still be at -15%. That is even more negative than your usual pessimistic attitude. Maybe you need to drink more.

It's a true reflection of my opinion of Big 10 College Hockey. Got nothing tp do with alcohol levels.

My implication wasn't that you are drunk, but that you should be so maybe you'd have a more upbeat attitude.
You wouldn't be the first to post while inebriated.

Challenge is with resulting hang over...he's likely to shoot what's left of the glass into the sun.

The NCAA didn't institute the week off between the regionals and the Frozen Four so people could plan for the frozen four. The majority of tickets sold for the FF are bought months in advance. The NCAA did not want the hockey championship on the same weekend as the Final Four. Not quite sure when the change was made, but I can remember going to the Championship game in Milwaukee in 1997 ND over BU) in the afternoon, and watching the semi's of the Final Four that evening.

I was hoping for a better outcome (like a WIN!) tonight against BYE, but as usual we let 3 points slip BYE and go for naught....we always seem to play better against real teams that we respect, like Michigan next weekend for example.

That change took effect with the 2000 Frozen Four.
