Minnesota @ Wisconsin: 1/22 & 1/23

Re: Minnesota @ Wisconsin: 1/22 & 1/23

The gophers have their 7 titles going for them.

Like I said...

Re: Minnesota @ Wisconsin: 1/22 & 1/23

look like the main WUCW 23 is showing Saturday night game. I have it listed on my directv guide. So we should be good to go.

That's Channel 8 (808 HD) on Comcast, and the game does now appear on their program guide.

And the school thinks so much of this fact... didn't they remove banners for a screen? Yup, really created a tough place for opponents to play with your tv and curtained off upper deck.

Nope

Banners are still up for hockey games. Right above the students.

And I've never seen the upper deck curtained off, and I've been to pretty much every game in the past 5 years.

Nice try though...

It must really be hard to bring in blue chip recruits when you can only win 4 games a year. You must thank God for ASU this year.

Don't be silly. The reason is that each year hundreds of gopher fans sneak across the border and visit the Kohl Center where Phil very graciously teaches them to count. Soon they are counting all sorts of things. Like the number of pet goats they keep and how many ice holes are in Ole's shanty, and so on... When eventually they apply their newly acquired skills to counting National Championship banners... well, you can imagine the trauma they invariably experience at learning the awful truth that we have ONE MORE.
Catatonia often sets in.

Now it's true we find you all disgusting, but we're not Monsters. The banners have been quarantined until a solution can be found. (And frankly, having a bunch of drooling catatonic gopher fans in the stands maybe just another normal day at Marriucci, but we really don't want to accommodate them forever.)

Perhaps if you guys would hang an extra participation banner like some of your more forward thinking sister schools do, it would help ease the shock a bit.

No kidding. We missed out on stealing Boesser from right out of your backyard.

Kid has probably scored a ton of goals for the gophers this year, huh?

Kunin this year and Frederic next year.

Becky fans can count so they have one thing going for them.

However, they can only count to 20; 21 if they are male.

Minnesota has never liked playing Canadian schools anyway.

Only three without Nodaks and Austrians. Pretty pathetic for the State of Hockey. LSSU level of achievement.

Then that'd be three with rosters entirely of instate talent.

Unprecedented in D1 sports.

And since teams like, say, North Dakota and Wisconsin wanted to play hockey too, the state has been generous in providing it's wealth of hockey players and coaches to the less fortunate (which is to say, less talented) to it's immediate East and West.

The State of Hockey indeed.
