The curse of Elk River in 7AA Finals (2015 (Lutz) & 2017 (Mass) reared it’s ugly head for the Purple Cows tonight in dramatic fashion ☝️?

Please. That’s further proof of why we suck even more. Couldn’t solve what a good team clearly could. ?

It was technically a sellout both nights. Guessing the X just holds more?

They can’t recruit the high end talent to play that style at this point. Hastings assembled a great grinder team who ran out of gas against a team who played them the same way and hit on their chances and Mankatos mistakes

17,850 was what they announced in arena. And noted it a sellout. ?‍♀️

I’m being sarcastic. I understand they need to recruit that way to be successful. It works for them.

It was a sellout so, not for hockey? Not for this event? They’ve reconfigured this place a lot. It’s been different each of our 4 trips here.

I'd guess 19.5K is for basketball.

I thought it was a very good crowd. The suites and whatever the things at the top of the arena is where I thought most of the empty seats were. Also, better than the sea of empty seats in Buffalo.

I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.

Hitting and skating through the neutral zone were the big difference in that period.

I don’t ever wanna hear shit about golden chokers from cows fans ever again or their 60 year old former players :rotflmao:

They were clearly the better team and absolutely choked that game away. Once Denver got a lead the game actually became watchable, the teams started trading chances and actually playing hockey which the Mavs weren’t exactly prepared for. At least there’s some justice in the hockey universe, seeing that trash brand of hockey win a national title would be hard to swallow.

Kind of bummed for Mankato to be honest. But I could not and would not root for them. Not really happy Denver won another one either. I am happy for the young coach for Denver though. That was an impressive performance.

Mankato doesn’t run a trap. No one does anymore.

Unless you are using that term broadly when they aren’t giving up shots?

I don’t have any reason to hate Denver so they were clearly the lesser of evils for me in this game. Also because of them it wasn’t Michigan vs Mankato which would’ve really sucked.

They literally stack their own blue line with five guys like an Italian soccer team.

What is it called then when you load the neutral zone and push your opponent to the walls? Serious question so that we can properly label what the Mavs play.

Credit to Denver. The fact that they were able to beat both Michigan & Kato is impressive considering the different styles of both teams. Deserving in the end.

Dogs won the title in 2018, then again in 2019, chance for 3peat snuffed out by Covid-19, then lose to eventual champ UMass in 2021 & Denver in 2022 (8 days after beating them at Xcel) . Mavs had Denver…then pee down their leg at crunch time and lose.

Early report from Mankato fans here are complaints about the third period penalty that led to the go-ahead goal.

No sympathy on that from us.

just asked a UND fan how they feel about being passed in the national championship rankings. They looked visibly pissed off. Then out of know where went on a rant about how the Big Ten sucks and this shows NCHC dominance.

I honestly don't get their train of thinking. What does the Big Ten have to do with a NCHC vs CCHA final? What a miserable bunch.

Gophers would have gotten dusted off by either team tonight.

Denver just flipped the switch in the third period. As soon as they scored, they relaxed while the cows tightened their sphincters. Denver has that combo platter of speed, grit, and skill.

I had that exact conversation with a Mav fan today when I said that Denver would win 3-2 and he countered with 4-1 Mavs. He didn’t think Denver had speed, grit, and skill. I said that Denver was the same team as the Mavs except they had the talent along with the rest of that.
