      This game was actually on TV here in Canada (NHL lockout means we are desperate for hockey)

      Look forward to watching this team in the Frozen Four.

          I remember McLeod commenting that people in Vancouver could see the game. Pretty crazy, and cool.
          the state of hockey is good

            It's early in this season, but the scary thing for us non-gopher fans is that everyone knew the kind of play the gophs showed this weekend was possible, and last year proved that this group has a competitive heart. Combine big time talent with a competitive, never quit spirit and you have a team that is going to kick a lot of arse. Sooner or later, you will need a little luck in the NCAAs, of course, but this could be a team to remember, regardless how that goes.

            Unfortunately for you guys, there's another team out there that is even better (they clobbered the U18s by two goals!), so be prepared to have your hearts ripped out.

              Longtime hiatus from posting, but long time lurker on these boards...interesting quote from MSU's coach postgame from the StarTrib story.

              "They're awfully good," Spartans coach Tom Anastos said. "I thought they were a real good team [last year]. They're way better. They were strong. They were fast. They were skilled."

                And they will probably wear the #1 team mantle now.

                  Probably, but it means nothing this time of year obviously.

                    Just another target on our backs and a chance for other people to flame us when we finally lose a game because it will be an upset.

                      So the solution is to just not lose any games. Simple enough.

                        Sounds like a good plan to me.

                          Like the old saying goes, "simple, but not easy."

                            As expected, the Gophers receive 46/50 1st place votes in the USCHO Poll. Poor Sparty was 16th last week and after tangling with the Gopher buzzsaw have now plummeted over the precipice along with Jan Brady.

                              After this weekend's sweep any thoughts on the Gophers' situation at D? They tried both Holl and Parenteau at wing on the 4th line, do you think the odds are good that either will stay there? IMO Holl looked the most comfortable up there and did a real nice job for his first time at forward as a Gopher. If he (or Parenteau) sticks at forward, where would that leave Jared Larson and Christian Horn? Which of these four will probably not make the trip to Tech?

                              Also it appears that the odd man out is Blake Thompson - I don't believe he saw any ice time this past weekend, or did he even dress? What are the chances that he will either (a) be redshirted or (b) announce that he's transferring to another school (like Sam Lofquist did a few years back)?
