If I'm Serratore and they interview me right then...

20 min. left in the Gopher season. I wonder if they'll come out desperate?:D
 
Re: NCAA West Regionals semifinals 1# Minnesota vs 4# Yale 3/29/13

I predict that UND will not have nearly as much trouble with Niagara.
Is it coaching?

I seem to recall a pretty nifty comeback to tie UND - but I guess that was on the big ice sheet

It was also before their best players started coasting.

They had a good comeback against Bemidji, but cripes it was Bemidji.

That happens to be the last time the Gophers looked like they were capable of winning anything.

What an ***** bummer. I guess it's not quite as bad as Holy Cross. This years it's not too surprising. They have been struggling for quite a while. Sucks to see them flop at the end of the year. I'd rather they struggle early on and end up a middle of the pack seed and be playing good at the end of the season.

I have a feeling the BADgers might make a real run for #7 this year....makes me very sad :(

I thought that Lowell was the most vulnerable #1 seed. Minnesota needs to get their act together quick.
I assume this is based on the draw (Wisco)? I would not bet against UML. I think they are the best team in the country right now. Anything can happen of course.

Plenty of people would call Wisconsin the best team in the country right now too.

Yale is playing a good defensive game around the net, the Gophers are not getting enough quality shots on net and when they do, Malcolm has been efficient in making key saves. The Gophers have tried jamming the puck at times, but Malcolm's been solid on the pipes.

I know they are surging but I'll be very surprised if they make it out of the Manchester bracket.

Every. Week.

Um ... as a UND fan I probably shouldn't be saying this, but this is nowhere near a done deal. I don't see this one ending 2-0. Yale isn't going to be able to lock down Minnesota. The question is whether Gophers' pressure converts before Ylae converts an odd man rush...

I think its a 3-2 final, with 50-50 odds on each team.

Jeebuz. Some team's headed for mock and ridicule.
 
Re: NCAA West Regionals semifinals 1# Minnesota vs 4# Yale 3/29/13

Yale will come out to protect Malcolm, stay physical on the walls to keep the Gophers out of the paint, plug the lanes and attempt to block every shot. Gophers will need the best period of the year to stay alive. This is the season right here.
