We did a duck boat tour. Did not get to go in the water because that was the exact half hour a storm rolled through and there was lightning. Timing is everything. We at least got a partial refund.

Yes. Although you’re not nearly as dangerous as an old coworker who

1. Was working in lower Manhattan on 9/11

2. Was traveling in Japan when the Fukushima nuclear plant melted down

3. Was traveling in Phuket during the big Tsunami

I guess I'm one of the few people on this board who's pulling for Mankato today. Denver has 8 titles already (3 of those since 2004). I'd like to see someone new win it. For me, it's nice to see hardware come to the state of Minnesota, no matter which school here wins it.

It's sour grapes and an unfortunate part of my make-up, but I admit to being a sore loser. After the team gets bounced, my interest needle hovers at near zero.

But, to respond to your question, I would pull for Mankato FOR: they belong to a fraternity of Minnesota hockey schools, they have a lot of Minnesota kids on their team, they are the "little red engine that could," I like their coach, and they earned their spot. However, AGAINST: it would be rewarding a recruiting strategy and style of play I am loathe to support.

This is me. I’d root for MSU for all but I HATE that style of play. Personal take, it ruins hockey. I also hated the 2-line pass and am a grumpy old man.

Nothing against Hastings or the team.

Beer tour through City Brew Tours was amazing. 13 strangers who were fast friends by the end. Fun getting driven around for 5 hours drinking. 14 different beers over 4 breweries. The last was a 9.5% stout. I think half of us would have kept the party rolling if we could have.

Graduated in 2000, which would put him around 63 years old.

I played beer league hockey with the taller guy. Interesting bit…he is a Bulldog fan as well. He wore UMD breezers and socks when he played hockey.

Well, roughly 40 games a season and the opportunity to play 5 years.

College sports are slowly dying overall. It’s no longer for the love of the game.

I may have a song I dislike as much as Hail to the Victors.

Say what you will about Michigan, at least they play hockey and not whatever this sport is becoming.

If you stay healthy it seems like a reasobable number to hit with the 5th year especially if you go deep in both tournaments every year.

And McNeely’s 174th NCAA game as well, after 118 games in the USHL. I guess he’s trying to milk this for as long as possible. Since that prestigious Mankato degree will have him back to selling nut cups at Total Hockey after this season

MSU is doing to Denver what they did to us. Even on the Denver PP. Maybe we can relax about our play a little.

Joke as you may, McNeely played a damn good game Thursday vs the Gophers & his play will be important tonight for the Mavs ☝️

Seeing Mankato do the same thing to Denver that they did to us definitely takes a bit of the sring out of Thursday

Don’t have to like this strategy or style though. Prefer a skill game. Not a clog the middle check everyone off the puck game.

So if Hastings was hypothetically the coach of the Gophers, would he not even recruit guys like Cooley and Lucius?? Would he just go with the older guys? Honest question.

How does Denver get to the point where you’re down by a goal going into the third period of the Championship game but are 0-14 on the PP in almost 4 games? And their PP actually looks pretty good.
