North Star College Cup - MN, UMD, MSU, SCSU

Re: North Star College Cup - MN, UMD, MSU, SCSU

This is rich considering Mazzocco, Gorg and Chorske all seemed to say St. Cloud was out playing the Gophers.

The Gophers are probably one of the top 2 teams in the country, have a great goalie and their players have a knack for getting pucks in the net. But to act like they blew the Huskies off the ice tonight is absurd.
I didn't hear comments about SCSU outplaying the Gophs after period one. Gophs were partially lucky to escape that period not trailing (I say partially, because Wilcox is part of the team and he played great, not lucky). SCSU scores a couple in the first and it might have been a different outcome. But, I thought the Gophs had the edge in the remaining periods. And the announcers commented on the Gophs closing the gap in shots on goal in the later periods. Blow SCSU off the ice -NO. But noticeably reduced both their odd man rushes and their ability to hold the zone, while increasing their own opportunities and O zone time.

I bet Koho's dad will tape it for you. Just put on your blinders when you go to pick it up. Word has it that he doesn't have a good poker face.;)

Opposite side of the Cities and only about a 50% chance he actually gets the game recorded, but let me know if I need to give him a call.....
 
Re: North Star College Cup - MN, UMD, MSU, SCSU

Is there a website that streams the FSNorth feed? I remember watching a game via directors cut in the past which isn't ideal, but may beat watching at a bar/grill when I already have BBQ going
Have AT&T Uverse with sports package, and have lots of regional FSN channels but not North for some reason. Pretty weak

How was the crowd at the X last night? Was the upper deck open?

Couldn't make it last night, I should be there tonight though. We are 3-0 when I am at the games. : )

Good, since my special lady friend and I will miss the game (13-0-0 when she watches). Hopefully the good juju carries on!
 
Re: North Star College Cup - MN, UMD, MSU, SCSU

Hmmm...what were my points?
1. Gophers win 4-2 (Pretty darn close, guess I overestimated their ability)
2. Faragher isn't that good (must not be to have put in the backup)
3. Huskies aren't that great (have ability, but not a top 3 team)

Looks like my "analysis" wasn't too far off.

Now go crawl into a bottle of beer.

Cheers.

I don't know what game you were watching, but the one I saw had SCSU outshoot the Gophers 39-29 and Nocox stopped all but one. And for most of the game SCSU was winning in the faceoff circle (I believe the Gophers ended up winning there by the end of the night) The difference was the Gophers capitalizing on the two PPs they were dealt (something that your "superior" Gophers were struggling with all year, congrats for turning that around) and SCSU didn't. Faragher let three goals in (OMG, he got LIT UP just like you predicted!!)

Read someone like Harley's analysis who actually knows what he's talking about.
