              Never really developed a taste for tequila. Kind of hard to understand how you make a drink out of something that sharp, inhospitable. Now, bourbon is easy to understand.

                  In the late 80’s I was back in Grand Forks with some friends for the Minnesota series. We were standing in the lobby of old REA waiting for the ticket window to open. It was a couple of hours before the game and the Minnesota bus pulled up front and the players and coaches walked through the lobby into the arena. Doug was last. He walked up to one member of our group, ask “you need tickets to the game?” and pressed two tickets into my friends hand.

                  There were a lot of things Woog could have done with those tickets. He didn’t care that they’d be used by someone who would root against his team. He just knew they were going to someone who wanted to watch a college hockey game. I always thought that incident said a lot about the man.
                  That community is already in the process of dissolution where each man begins to eye his neighbor as a possible enemy, where non-conformity with the accepted creed, political as well as religious, is a mark of disaffection; where denunciation, without specification or backing, takes the place of evidence; where orthodoxy chokes freedom of dissent; where faith in the eventual supremacy of reason has become so timid that we dare not enter our convictions in the open lists, to win or lose.

                    RIP to a very colorful coach who brought a lot to this weird subculture of ours.

                    At his graduation ceremony from the U of Minnesota, my cousin got a keychain. When asked what UW gave her for graduation, my sister said, "A degree from a University that matters."

                      I used to get nearly every MN game and watched them all (admittedly rooting for whoever they played) but we loved Doug Woog's color. He was a funny and kind man, and a great foil to the PBP guy (Frank something?).

                      Thanks for the memories, Coach.

                        This hit me harder than I'd have thought. Really sad day. My fandom predates his time at the U, but he absolutely had my attention the whole time he was there and really solidified my love for the Gophers. His teams could bury the puck and never took crap from anyone. He had great coaching rivalries and yet he and his fellow coaches had a lot of respect for each other.


                        And when he was in the booth it was always such a treat to listen to him and Frank.

                        The man oozed love for the game but more importantly for people. He deserved a title but even without it he goes down as a legend.


                        RIP The Wooger

                              As he should. Not only a great coach, but a tremendous contributor to the game. Very sad to see Coach Woog pass, much too early. RIP Coach.

                                One of the great things about TV in the late 90s and early 200s was that every gopher home game was on FSN. So whether you were an MN fan or not, you always knew you could watch a WCHA game on the weekends. Doug was everything you'd associate with those broadcasts and how entertaining he was.
