everything gotta be split plus to have a realistic chance at an at large and this is a team that they looked pretty good against while they were here. Fink is back so going to take a full up and down the lineup effort

Gruba doesn’t appear to be wearing a non-contact jersey based on a picture the social media team posted. That’s a good sign.

The team just needs everyone healthy for every game and then they need to play like they did in the second games against BC or Nodak for all sixty minutes for every game the rest of the season. Pretty straightforward if you ask me.

Splits the rest of the way doesn’t seem like a crazy ask. Yes I know these are good teams they’re playing but showing up one of the two nights is all we’re asking here.

We still have to be over .500 to make the tournament.  Need a sweep or two in there to help out.

I don't think that's a rule any longer?

As @slap-shot said, that's no longer a rule. Plus, we have two against ND (on the road) and two against tOSU (at home). With any luck at all, those should all fall in the 'W' column.

My mistake.  Usually we don't have to worry about it, so it never came up.

Certainly not ideal coming out of the long break.

Graham Harris in the lineup after a month off is not great. Wonder when we should expect Pritchard and Pahlsson back.

I wonder if Coyle is paying attention to this. Vegoe mentioned in overtime he has been at practice lately.

I guess at least it’s that and he didn’t get injured in practice or non hockey injury.

No Pritchard sucks. Still, don’t mind Townsend getting more opportunity.

F*king Gadowsky Jr. always making sure to get the extra  bit of interference in on his guy when the puck is already long gone across the rink. Crap like that might fly in those rinky-dink AHA Tuesday night games, but no wonder he’s been so pedestrian in B1G

Teams spacing is impressively lacking today. Add that to looking like we’re mired in molasses it’s only surprising we’re not down more.

Zero pressure sustained in the offensive zone. Has been this way for much of the season. Not up to Gopher Hockey standards.
