Western is our only hope and that still leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Denver doesn’t bother me. Yeah, they have a lot, but meh. The other three however can burn.

Western Michigan is the only option that doesn’t make me vomit. I guess Denver winning yet another one is pretty whatever it’s not like we’re catching them any time soon.

This is like the worst possible scenario as a Gopher fan.  If UMD makes the final, I’m going to try and sell my tickets for a lot of money as I couldn’t cheer for either team.  🤮

Very seldom we cheer for any of the teams that are playing unless it's the Gophers or against a select few others. I just wish for good games and none go to OT

I think it was deflected by the glove of one of the mi-state players.

 correct. Augustine has always had that unorthodox punching style he uses to push pucks out of play and I’m sure he wishes he could go back and be more square to it as it is going over the net prior to the deflection and may have just hit him if he isn’t partially jumping for it

will be curious to see how many of those guys come back given how it ended and the ongoing lack of a ff trip

 WI was redlined and playing on their toes while MI State got caught in protection mode and couldn't snap out of it. In rube parlance, it was a massive choke.

The Spartans' chances of losing that game were about as likely as the Vikings scoring on a Josh Allen fumbled snap in the endzone. It can happen but almost never does.

That’s a bad taste in the mouth that will be hard to get rid of for state. Unfortunately that’s too familiar.

So. The lesser of my two evils is the red team in the semi. That’s hockey as they say but what in the Sam He double hockey sticks is going on? Just so wrong. ND wins this game imo.

 they lost to Cornell the same way last year (2 goals in the back half of the 3rd)

UND fans should be giddy they're not playing MI State. This year's NC game should have been the two Michigan schools playing for the title, which would have been epic.

yeah the stars are lining up for them unfortunately. They took care of business when they should’ve and if Michigan comes through on the other side they more often than not thrive in the underdog role when confidence is high like now. If Duluth comes all the way through ND has the revenge game motivation. Not counting out western or Denver but my over thinking is kicking in and can see what’s happening here.😂

@upnorthkid I have to assume on the hate-o-meter for Gopher fans it goes 1. UND 2. Wisconsin 3. Michigan?

Not sure the order but UND/Wisconsin has to be the closest thing to cheering for a meteor for a Gopher fan.

The only solace I will take is that given the amount of drunks in both the UND and Wisconsin fanbases, we will probably hear stories of some type of big fanbase fight breaking out in Vegas which will glorious.

Today’s second game and the semifinal game of wisco/hawks are both games where I can say I am cheering against both teams.  😂

Not that I want the broncos or pioneers to win another title, but imho it’s a better option than letting any of the other four teams have one. 

Yep. What’s left is pretty much the worst possible options as a Gopher fan. 🤮

Augustine's defense kinda screwed him repeatedly, not to mention the rest of the team just hitting the snooze button. Aside from whoever it was deflecting the puck past him to lose the game IDK if you saw #8 on the tying goal hit the glass, wobble around, and then look completely lost as Wisconsin got the shot and rebound that scored. No idea what that guy was doing on that play.

Denver 2-0 hot start, “go to the net” since squirts pays off for the first goal.

I don't get that channel but was able to get the stream at least. Problem was the stream wasn't working for a while so I missed like 3 goals.

my favorite part is if du holds on and Michigan wins, we’ll have beaten every team in the frozen four this year. 5-6 overall (4-5 if its umd with beating 3/4).

That game LDP made like 30 saves in the first period where as the Gophers scored twice on like 4 shots lol. I'm exaggerating but the shot disparity was significant and the Gophers got pretty lucky that game. Pretty good example of why a one game format is so ass.

I was such a passive fan this season, I can't remember much, but I thought that game was a goalie win. Denver was a much better team.

Denver is a tournament team and they have the coach for it, unlike the Gophers who wasn't and didn't.

Lots of good players from Minnesota playing in the NCAA this year who did not pick Minnesota or who Minnesota thought weren't good enough to play on their wagon of a team. 😆

Alright my memory isn't bad 😆.

Kinda funny that on campus sites are banned for regionals but Denver gets as close as you can get to a home game vs the 1 seed. Not saying that's the cause of the outcome thus far but that's a pretty rough draw for Western.
