On to Duluth--
Friday -- 7pm
I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.
Should be a sweep on paper, with emphasis on the should. Just like we should have beat Omaha last night. Take it one night at a time but one team is definitely better than the other. Duluth is probably a year away from being a serious contender, but they’re still feisty.
What? Gophers didn’t win the Vegas extravaganza? Had to of been the sub-par arena ice conditions, Omaha knows how to play in them better? I foresee the Dogs squeaking out an OT pairwise tie & correspondingly (meaningless) win in an annoying SO to avoid the 🧹 😉Should be a sweep on paper, with emphasis on the should.

In all seriousness, it should be a fun time for Gopher fans to make the drive to Duluth, fall colors, Canal Park, dogs student section behind net chanting…well, U know what they chant during warmups!
Wife and I are driving up Friday and back as well. Wanted to make a long weekend of it being MEA. Just have to much going on at the home front before the snow flies. Here’s to a win Friday in person and a win Saturday.

This series is going to be particularly funny to me because of the rebranding Duluth had earlier this summer.
the funniest thing to ever happen to that school.

hey man, I just pasted the url. Doesn't show up.
anyways, UMD now has full U of M branding instead of the old UMD logo.

Don’t worry, they’ll just start chanting “umd forever” randomly during games to remind us of their past…😂

It’s very hilarious, would really like to see DHG’s response.

While my diploma states “University of Minnesota” on it…those t-shirts (and other garb) as they relate to UMD sports teams are so embarrassing its laughable. What genius came up with that re-branding idea? 💡 lolThis series is going to be particularly funny to me because of the rebranding Duluth had earlier this summer.

The Gophers will dominate the games this weekend. Will they win both? Never easy there. Should have won both last year as they were the better team both nights. I would predict split but wouldn’t be surprised if the Gophers sweep.
It’s a sweep on paper but I won’t predict a sweep in that building til I see it with my own eyes. Split or win/tie.
The powerplay and shooting need to be much better. If that happens the Gophers will sweep.
Should be a fun weekend up north. Expecting a good chunk of Gopher fans.
Very happy Fox9+ is continuing to step up their hockey game for the U.

I believe it will be similar to the SCSU broadcast. They are picking up the feed from Duluth. It will not be like a home game broadcast.

Still fine with me. It's on tv and I don't have to look for alternate ways to see the game.

You just haven’t put this post in context (relating to another thread). Do I think the Dogs will get swept at Amsoil? Doubt it, but if the Gophers are serious about snapping droughts in 24-25, might as well start with the one up North (requiring one) as opposed to 4 straight. I do see Gophers snapping (that one) this weekend, re-refreshing having a regular 2 game home series.I foresee the Dogs squeaking out an OT pairwise tie & correspondingly (meaningless) win in an annoying SO to avoid the

I swear the kids and parents in front of us last season thought they won the Stanley Cup after "winning" the meaningless shootout in Duluth. I cannot wait until a team losses their $h!t when a player or goalie gets hurt during a non-conference shootout that means nothing.

Completely agree on the TV Front. Glad it is on, and I appreciate the willingness of local channels like Fox 9+ to increase their coverage on college hockey. They saw an opportunity to fill a gap left by Fox Sports North/Bally's and have done an good job thus far. Given that they want to now have a pre-game show, its nice to see the investment in local sports. I am always happy when we are on tv and stopped complaining long ago about what channel.

I mentioned it after the St. Cloud game but Koster looks back to normal this year. It was obvious he was laboring on his knee last season.
Need a sweep after the Omaha game

You really do love that stat don’t you? No doubt the simpletons up in Duluth will make it a great atmosphere for big brother coming to town. Should be fun!
With the Gophers playing all 13 year (home baked) cream puffs I expect a UMD sweep.

This 100% It is on TV that is what matters. There will be people out there crying about the announcers and they cannot find Fox 9 plus.
No, it is not on tv. I've never heard of this, what is fox9+? Local public service station? University student project?
If Gopher hockey were on tv I could watch with anywhere in the state with Dish, DirecTV or Spectrum. Correct?
@midevil-bowievil lol…FOX9+ is channel 807 on xfinity (Comcast) in the NW Metro.

Yup. Doesn't help us who live outstate. In the past Duluth station usually picked up the home games against Gophers but doesn't look like that is the case this year. NCHC streaming maybe prevent that? I miss the years of games always being on stations available statewide without having to subscribe to multiple streaming services. It seems like the easier it is for MN kids to watch Gophers should only help with recruiting in their future. At least I am going on Sat so will see one of the games.
@midevil-bowievil WFTC was rebranded as Fox 9+. It's available on Comcast, Spectrum, Dish, DirecTV. I think OTA it's 9.2.
13 on Midco IIRC

Let's hope the FOX9+ broadcast is without a scrambled picture. Most of their college hockey broadcasts have had issues. Glad they are carrying the Gopher Men's Hockey!
Aside from no volume first period vs Jan Brady U (exhibition game) they’ve been OK, cameras angle Michigan vs ASU was a bit distant, looked like an automated camera was used for that game. But…I’m guessing Fox9+ will put in added effort for MINNESOTA vs re-branded M DULUTH!Let's hope the FOX9+ broadcast is without a scrambled picture.

So is Fox 9 doing their own camera work, or just buying the NCHCo stream feed?

Fox 9+ will pick up the feed from Duluth TV I would assume like past seasons
Gophers ML: -230
Duluth ML: +175
over/under is 6

As of a couple days ago, I didn't see it listed on Duluth channel, so not sure they are carrying it. I'll have to go check the guide and see if it changed, because then I could watch tonight!

per my YTT it is on Fox9+ but may be blacked out in Duluth? Up in Duluth right now and Mine is showing it will record but that I can't watch it live (Going to the game so doesn't really affect me, but seems like may have to be watched on cable?)
If someone has access to & can post line charts for both M teams tonight…it would be appreciated! (I’m not on Twitter) Go M Duluth Bulldogs! Hoping the volume works properly tonight on Fox9+😉 Probably making the drive up north Saturday for the deuce…
