It’s hot.  🔥🥵🔥

Well it was 85 here in Mn, which is 24 degrees above normal 😎 

 

It was 87 at 9 pm here last night.  I dread venturing out with the sun up today….Thank goodness for our plans including a building full of ice! 🥶

 

 

No reason to go outside in Vegas.  Cabs, trams, etc.  Casinos are nicely air conditioned. And the night is the time to be awake in Vegas anyway.  If you do go outside, find the pool and some cold beverages.

 

There's no whining in Vegas, especially when you're there to watch Gopher hockey.  It kills me that I am not there.

 

I know where you can a ticket or ten.  😂

Will be interested to see who wins the UMass/UNO game. Veegs is much higher on Omaha than I am. Both are replacing some key players.

For any night owls, the chat will be going during the game.

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.

Has there been any chatter of a UMN pregame location?  We found the Air Force bar where we had lunch. I get the feeling the football game in Pasadena is getting all the attention and the U didn’t really put much effort into this event. Guessing nothing put together for the students, don’t think I’ve seen any Gopher fans under the age of 50 apart from myself and a few folks.  😂

According to the email I just got from Orleans, the Gophers get the late game both nights

I have had this on the schedule for over a month now...

I hadn't seen anything that said that was an actual time vs the placeholder that you frequently have in place during the off-season until the TV times are announced In particular, I thought the icebreaker was set up with the championship game being the late game on Saturday.

 

B1G refs... corrupt, or just incompetent?

Gator would be happy to know there are 3 whioux fans spotted so far….

 

And they are about 10% of the people in this arena currently…..

All Sport CG with the Atari 1600 scoreboard.  

Sadly my home internet is down and I'm running off my mobile hotspot, which unfortunately is garbage when I'm at home. So my feed is basically 90% frozen.

Last week's line up chart it was Wood with Huglen and Lamb. Today it's Wood with Clark and Kurth.

Yeah that works. 😀

The only differences between watching BIG+ stream and watching 1985 VHS tapes is the VHS tapes have better resolution and brighter colors.

They added a second assist on the goal so it is now Kurth from Clark and Wood.

Wood picks up his first Gopher point.

Oh the classic graphics are on the video feed?  I thought it was the scoreboard in the arena.

With the retro talk, it's fitting for tonight though.  I also cracked a smile when I heard the late Glen Sonmor's "TAKE THAT YOU STINKIN' BADGERS!" from almost 20 years ago during the radio intro.

 Big part of why I’m excited about this team. Rinzel should take the next step and add hopefully a Koster return to form and some contributions from Gruba and Chesley and we should have a ton of D points this year that were sorely lacking last year

Mittlestadt has shown a scoring touch at times too, pretty stacked blue line as long as they don’t forget how to play defense/goaltend.

Team couldn’t look much better through 5 periods of the season so far. Really excited to see them tomorrow against some legit competition.

I am repeating myself but I think this year's D group stacks up well against the D from two years ago which was one of the best D groups in Gopher history.

Two years ago

Farber (Junior), LaCombe (Senior), Koster (Junior), Johnson (Senior), Chesley (Freshmen), L. Mitts (Freshmen), Thomas (Freshmen)

This season

Chelsey (Junior), Koster (5th year Senior), Rinzel (Sophomore), Thomas (Junior), L. Mitts (Junior), Gruba (Freshmen), Whipple (Freshmen)

4 of the 7 are the same players with two more years of experience.

Seven goals and the top line doesn't have a goal. When is the top line going to start pulling their weight? 😉
