Cooley and Snugs should take their anger out on the Huskies. They looked more dangerous than the Bedard line tonight. Seriously. Not to mention Knies is an improvement over Gauthier.
I have a feeling that Cooley is going to be the best player in college hockey for the rest of the season

While I would not be surprised to see that happen, given how good he was already the past several weeks I'd love to see someone like Pitlick or Huglen completely amp up their game for the remainder.

Pitlick’s end to his 1st half:
3G @ Michigan
1G @ ASU
1G @ MSU
2G vs Wisconsin
2G vs USAU18
77 is on a total heater. 7 on the other hand has been playing great but needs to get on the scoresheet more often in the second half.
Any favorite bars/restaurants for Gopher fans in St. Cloud? Quick google search shows Howie's and Shooters are both very close nearby.
Val's is the stop for food early enough, MC Dugout is also a must for a Hairy Buffalo and Red Carpet for post game entertainment...

I've heard about Val's but haven't tried it yet. Someday, someday...
If you haven't been to 7 West Taphouse (St. Cloud or Duluth) they have great burgers and fries (and tons of beers). Worth a try.
Don’t order the large fries at Val’s, if you go.
He certainly could be…another reason why finishing the deal at the Frozen Four in Tampa is so critical, as the 3rd overall pick it’s 99% he’s one and done at the U.I have a feeling that Cooley is going to be the best player in college hockey for the rest of the season
Val's will be closed Jan 2nd through the 8th.
Keep your stick on the ice...

Yeah, he has really turned it on. Now if we can get Huglen going, watch out!
From today's media availability--
Bob--
Thought the 1st no goal last night should have counted.
Players from Worlds will be back tomorrow. Will talk to them about playing this weekend then.
Talked about the trip to Bemidji.
Doesn't see a weakness in SCSU
The UND & Duluth contracts are not done yet, but soon. Both will be 4 year deals. St Thomas deal is done. Need to work on SCSU. Too many teams that they want to play, but not enough room on the schedule.
Expects to see continued growth from the freshmen.
Brodziński was next--
1st time playing them without playing a brother.
Mom will be for sure MN, Dad may be wearing Red ( he laughs )
SCSU will be tough.
Talked about meeting Mayasich
LaCombe was last--
Talked about his World Jr experience
Discussed SCSU
Said he got socks and underwear for Christmas
I'm 50% factual and 50% sarcastic. When you get to know me, you will know which is which.
St Thomas deal is done.
Interesting to see what the deal with St. Thomas, and if they are hosting where would they play. This could be a big money grab for St. Thomas if they do it right

Need to tell my daughter, LaCombe's #1 fan this... lol!!!
Keep your stick on the ice...
It would be bizarre to see the UofM play at St. Thomas ice arena.. Seats about what 800?

So Mariucci is already sold out for the game on Sunday but there are still tickets available for the game in St Cloud? Honestly, that’s so embarrassing for the Huskies hockey program. What’s going on up there if they can’t sell out against the Gophers ?

SCSU couldn't sell out against UND either.
School starts for students on Monday of next week, so many might not be on campus until Sunday anyway.

I can see St. Thomas having a dbl header women and men vs. the Gophers. Home and home with the other game at Mariucci.

I thought I heard we open the season with a home and home with St. Thomas next season. But I don’t know if that was a for sure or speculation. ?♀️

I was curious so a little research says their largest home attendance so far this year is 961 for a game with Mankato.
Bold to have the opening clip be of the Gopher’s OT winner from last. But I love it! Wouldn’t have it any other way.
I'd rather see them play just about any time from the east than St. Thomas.

Thanks for the info! Planning on trying out 7 West Taphouse before the game.

I personally am not worried about Huglen at all, he can create his own scoring chances and has constant energy out there. Hopefully Lamb or Kurth can come alive and really help that line bury the puck.

As of this afternoon all that's left are a few chairbacks and standing room tickets. Most likely will be sold completely out by game time.
Chat will be going tonight, as usual.
When you tell somebody somethin', it depends on what part of the United States you're standin' in... as to just how dumb you are.
My guide shows Dateline on Fox 9+.
Sunday officially sold out

How things have changed. The secondary market used to be the enemy, and now they are partners in ticket distribution.

Leaving around 3 from Minneapolis and heading up to beautiful St Cloud MN! Going to 7 West and then the game with a couple of Huskies friends. Unbeknownst to them however, the tickets I snagged are in the away section lol. So while my friends will be in red and black, hopefully we’ll be in a good contingent of maroon and gold. Would love to sweep these guys but if it’s to be a split I hope Vegoe’s prediction is right and the home teams win. I’ll endure getting chirped by a bunch of Huskies fans in Polaris jackets this evening if it means we beat them in front of 10,000+ in Mariucci tomorrow afternoon.

Busy during the game (not that I could watch it anyway?) so I’ll be doing the ole hopes and prayers mixed with CHN updates method
It’s like Dejavu all over again. Hurtling west on 94 in the Gopher Hockey mobile on a Saturday morning! Meeting some friends to brewery hop then take in the game. Should be an exciting weekend of hockey! Hope to see a lot of maroon and gold in the crowd tonight!

On the right hand side of the Portal page it says TV: CBSSN, Fox 9+. NCHCtv
Well damn it sure does... Looks like a typo on my part. Gone.

Pino gets his first college goal this weekend
I am at a hotel in Wisconsin with maybe the largest TV I’ve ever seen in a hotel and DirecTv with a huge channel line up. They have religious channels I never knew existed. But for some reason they don’t have CBSSN. God dammit!
Most of these players fates have already been decided as most are drafted going into the tournament
LOL no being drafted into the NHL doesn’t guarantee anything for a player.
I don’t think Knies even touched him
Halfway thru the STC PP and tBob is still unloading on the refs.
For good reason. Brutal call
End of 1, tied at 0.

Agreed. I’d like to see that one when I get home. I think he wiped out before Knies even got there.
You’d be surprised to know they did not show the replay in the arena……

The passing on the Gophers need to be sharper and the offense needs to create shots that will produce rebounds.
