Wilcox is EXACTLY what kept the Gophers in that game. I'm becoming a bigger and bigger believer in him every game I watch him play. I agree Condon has to be the fastest player on the Gophers squad this year. He's doing everything he can to contribute on the ice. He's everywhere, and aside from his d...

Tough loss for the Gophers in Mankato. I thought Mankato played a good game. I also thought we'd see a bit more urgency out of the Gophers in the 3rd period though. On another note I've really started to notice the play of Condon. I think he's an extremely underrated player, but sometimes it can be ...

Rau is definitely something special and he's continuing to improve which is even more impressive. Smallest kid on the team goes after Ben Blood. That shows dedication to the team and to the 'M' As for the conditioning of the team they can thank Taylor Matson for that. He is the hardest working playe...

No way! He'll be targeted again?! Is it because his last name is Rau? Or maybe because he was a star player for Eden Prairie? Or because he scored the game winning goal in the State Tournament for Eden Prairie? Or is it simply because no matter how the Gophers are doing at any given point in the sea...

Very true. I'm not trying to take away from the fact that we NEED to win. We've got a talented young group who seem to be enjoying the opportunity to play with each other. Right now our biggest problem is that we're not playing a full 60 min and for us to be successful we can't give teams like UNO a...

Guentzel is not going to coach in Minnesota. Dean Blais would be the first person contacted if in fact we get rid of Lucia. We're three games into the season and we're 2-1-0 give it a rest. WE'VE LOST ONE GAME! I really don't think that's enough to start considering a coaching change this early in t...

I agree we should give Don some time to prove to us that he's here to win and keep building this program. Also, just because Dean Blais' contract states that doesn't mean I want to see him behind Minnesota's bench yet... I like Don and what he's done for us. Some might argue that at least the first ...

Money talks, BS walks bro. Between 6 teams you won't have enough games to fill an entire regular season, so we'll still play UND and I can guarantee we'll keep most if not all of our Minnesota rivarlies around. Don't be so ignorant. By the way what's attractive about playing for SCSU, UND, or any of...

I wouldn't be so sure about that. I at one time agreed with you about not having a Big Ten Conference for hockey, but now that Penn St. has made the jump Illinois is talking about resurrecting their Division 1 program. It's in the works... believe me.

The only out written in Dean Blais' conract at UN-O is to come up and coach the Gophers.
