I have noticed MN fans have been a bit hard on him, but from what I've seen, he has been excellent, and tonight is exhibit A.

MN fans were upset because he's ended the past few seasons (e.g. last year's WCHA Final Five) by slipping somewhat. This year he was rested, not playing so many games in the regular season.

Maine is picking up their play now and getting some chances. You have to credit both goalies for playing well tonight.

i think he's been pretty quiet offensively through the NCAAs...

4:39 left in the first overtime. I'm starting to think back to the UMD losses in 84 and 85, including the 4 OTs in the championship game in 84.

Minnesota on Power Play

[93champs]

They choose NOW to call a penalty? In the neutral zone?

[Gordon]

Wow ! is the ref sick of the game? give me a fricken break:(

[UNHcatsfan20]

That was a good call. The ref would have been stupid not to call that.

[MNGustie01]

Hauser hits pretty hard...

But its ok for the goalie to legcheck people?

[Bob Gray]

The way things go, I wouldn't be surprised if Maine gets a chance or two while shorthanded. You never know what'll end a game like this.
