The Gophers won again tonight in our home and home series against SCSU. I was expecting a split in this series, so a sweep to start of the season is a nice surprise.

GO GOPHERS!!!

don't follow it much cause it's never on TV.

Sort of a fan of Colorado College, wanted to attend there for undergrad (but apparently it's 46K a year)

Huge fan of the ECAC as a Dartmouth alum and also a fan of Hockey East as a huge BC fan. Some of the best hockey that I have ever seen comes in the Beanpot Tournament and in the various BC/BU games.

Great game. Looking solid on D with all of the freshman on this team. Good games by Schroeder and Ness. Kangas looks solid again in nets. Thank God. I am glad last year wasn't a fluke.
This team can have a good year, if we can stay away from injuries.

I hope so...I'm not confident with the way we've played. Could use a nice weekend playing Anchorage or something

Well it was a good game last night between the Gophers and the Badgers. I know that the refs are cracking down and calling it by the book, but my god, 21 Penalties? All minors? I would say that only about 1/3 of these would have been called last year. This is not fun to watch.
And when did the CCHA decide on using shootouts? I can't wait for the WCHA to follow suit.

I was about to post the same response this morning. 21 penalties? This is getting a little ridiculous. If this is what the remainder of the season has in store for us, I'm not too excited. All of these penalties totally disrupts the flow of the game and it turns into who has the better special teams.

Good to see the Gophers get a tie last night though, and it was pretty cool to see Lofquist score his first goal in Wisconsin. I thought it was pretty funny that right after he scored he popped his jersey and then cupped his hand to his ear just like Phil Kessel. Hopefully the Gophers can get a win tonight and sneak out of Madison with 3 points.

Oh, and I had no idea that the CCHA was using shootouts. I wonder how long it will take before the WCHA follows suit.
