Another game, another incomplete effort...Especially in the 3rd period.

Since 1998 I have said the big difference between the men & the women is the women play 60 minutes every game. This year I don't think that is true any more. Only listened to Dan but he sounded disappointed by the effort.

OTOH, a couple weeks ago some moron from OSU suggested they needed to fire Muzzy, I think we should encourage that sort of stupidity in our own self-interest. FIRE MUZZERALL!!!

Never before have I felt we've been more overrated than this year's rankings. Well, maybe in 2006, but that team had the last laugh regarding my opinion of them.

Really was. We played pretty darn good the last 5 minutes of the first as well as the second period. It was a good game. Terrible way to go down, makes it feel like it was a bad game, but it was a good game. Ohio State played great a lot of the game and clearly deserved to win.

I'm coming out of this going, "I really like the kids on this team, and they're capable of playing really well, but they're just not a very good team". Giving up a 3 on 1 one minute into the game. And then the Robinson penalty just started a collapse.

As ARM said "the team is good enough that you don't give up" and he's right I'm coming back tomorrow. I hope we kick their butts.

It certainly sounded like OSU deserved the win

The tying goal for Ohio State after Robinson took the penalty...Oy Vey! That was an interesting attempt at a pokecheck by the goaltender.

I didn't know your goaltenders were adept at trolling... teehee

Wow, this is unbelievable. I don't follow either the men's or women's teams like I used to (and who really does) but losing to OSU is some kind of new low. I saw they beat SCSU earlier 2-1. Hmmm.

haha...this is wrong..lol. Let's interrupt your broad brush, at-a-glance condemnation of the program to point out Ohio State has a very good team this year. (No need to throw the Huskies under the bus either, while we're at it. They have actually been playing pretty good the last couple months.)

Come on back and enjoy and suffer the issues of this team as the specific, unique situation that it is

Re: Minnesota Golden Gophers 2017-18 Season Thread

More of the same lack of cohesiveness so far today from the Gophers...It is what it is.

Down 4-0 now middle of the 2nd period. It's like the goaltenders are messed in the head. Can't complete a pass to save their lives. Bad turnovers. Frustrating.

It is what it is? I think I remember "Gardy" saying that 99 times in the Twins 2011 season. Once for each loss.

Can't remember if I've ever been this concerned about the Mankato team coming into town the next weekend.

Thank you Sydney, for the one anyway.

5-1 final, and it wasn't just the bounces I bet, Dan.

Switch goalies and Minnesota wins 5-1. Goaltending is aweful. Ohio got a big push from some huge sauve saves.
