    Re: Minnesota Golden Gophers Season Thread 2017-18 Part II

    That was an interesting game today. So many non calls just like Friday. We took out your guy away from the puck Friday and no call and you do the same to us today but it led to your goal.
    Romeo was certainly our MVP and saved our butts today time and time again!
    Well, see you in the post season!

        Sounds like we're even then...kinda? I thought it was a very competitive series with good pace and as expected a low scoring goalie duel between Robson and Romeo. Romeo is solid and made some excellent saves. I'd give the edge to Robson though for the weekend, he just keeps getting better. That glove save last night was robbery.

        Haven't calculated it, but the Gophers must be pretty close to a lock for an at-large bid. Gophers could have locked up home ice for the B1G tourney had they won the shootout tonight. A W or T next weekend against Penn St. to close out the regular season will lock the Gophers into home ice.

          We’ve looked better in some regards but ultimately it’s another weekend where they scored 3 goals total. I can’t complain about the results, their spot in the pairwise, or Robson’s play for that matter but I kinda wonder how sustainable this is. They’ve had a lot of series like this where they get 2-3 goals an entire weekend (including vs you guys) and split or do better somehow.

          I do think the gophers at their best look really good, the first period last night was a good example. But the PP and offense in general are still a work in progress. Some credit to the OSU goalie he had like 3 really great saves.

            The chemistry with the new lineup seems to work...so far. IIRC in years past fans could count on the team peaking at the right time. Last season they sputtered a little bit at the close and then bombed in the post-season. This season they nearly crashed and burned early, but have surged back in contention. IMO Capt. Sheehy and Robson have been a spark lately.

            It's been a tough year for Leon Bristedt. So far this season he has more penalty min. than points @ 4-4-8. Two seasons ago he was a 20 goal scorer, but his numbers have steadily declined each season. Sat. night was Senior night and yet another tough disappointment. Leon's parents flew in from Sweden, but he was too sick to play.

            Are Robson's stats sustainable? Over the short term, it's very possible he could go into the post-season as one of the hottest goalies in the NCAA. Anyone remember Alex Kangas in the playoffs against MSUM?

            ND is in a bit of a swoon at 3-4-1 beginning with the end of their 16 game winning streak, a 5-0 thumping by Wis. Jackson said lately he was surprised they've done as well as they have. Going forward he anticipates more of a struggle which is what he expected at the start of the season.

                And if you ever receive reputation from the poster known as Rimbaud, it's probably not a positive rep comment.

                    All good points Steve, with Leon he’s clearly a complimentary winger who can’t be expected to carry his own line. CM and Novak can do it, Romanko can do it too even if he isn’t a great finisher, others like Sheehy and Leon need to be centered by those guys or they’re gonna drown essentially. And not surprisingly Leon had his best weekend in a long time in Madison.

                    Your point about Notre Dame is interesting, there doesn’t really seem to be any team that’s clearly above the rest of the pack this year like there has been in other years. Notre Dame and SCSU has really hot goaltending/special teams to start off but were kinda treading water at even strength. Denver just lost a 1-0 barn burner at home to CC, Mankato is on fire but they play a schedule that reminds me of when the B1G was terrible. Seems like a year where anyone who gets in could win it all.

                      I totally agree with this. Every year our extended family forms a group and enters the national "pickem" contest [http://www.pickemhockey.com/bracket/]. This could very well be the year when no one picks the winner.

                          Admin, I'm guessing. A certain poster was recently suspended for good reason.

                              There were many posts. MANY posts. I get what you're saying, though.
