    Re: Minnesota Golden Gophers 2017-18 Season Thread

    According to a post made by "Iceburg" on GPL:

    "Looks like the Gophers will be picking up a transfer from Merrimack in former Edina forward Jackie Pieper.

    Jackie is the sister of Duke Pieper, whose story several of you will probably remember.

      This is accurate. 7-8 players have decided to leave the program as well as 2 coaches now. Tough start for a new program.

        Congratulations to Cara Piazza on her tremendous achievements, both on the rink and in the classroom.

          What coaches are leaving?

            This is a curious post. With no offense intended, where are 7-8 players from Merrimack going to transfer to? Other low-end D1 programs or high-end D3 programs? And why would both assistants also be leaving? I can't imagine they'd be upset with how the head coach runs the program. From all indications she has a very good reputation. More "enlightenment" is needed here please.

              Much more eloquent than my post. But that's essentially what I was getting at. Hard to believe this program would fall apart that quickly.

                If the post by Theicebox is accurate, it would appear that the Gopher's Scouting Report of Merrimack needs to be updated.

                        The schedule is out: http://www.gophersports.com/sports/w...071317aaa.html. The Wisco games in Feb fall right in the middle of the Olympics. Hope there's no conflict with Team USA or Team Canada.

                        Also, there's a non-conference game with St. Cloud State on Jan 9 (a Tuesday). Typically, that has been the Hall of Fame game, but I thought UMD was hosting the HOF game this year. Anyone have details?

                          It's not the Hall of Fame Game. Both schools just have an opening for another game due to UND's disappearance.

                            With the disappearance of the UND series the second to last weekend of the season, there aren't any good choices for Senior Night. The two options are the Mankato series, with almost a month left in the regular season, and the first round playoff series, which could disappear as well if they win the league.

                              Yeah, I know. I'm just interested in seeing our highly touted freshman class in action!

                                We didn't get to see a whole lot of Alex Woken last year as well so I'm curious to see how she develops this year and...Zoom boom is coming.
