Colgate up 2 to 0 on Harvard in the 1st period.
Lineup listed both extra D & F - it's LaPointe that got scratched.
Great to have college hockey on tv.
Go Blue!
BOOOOOO Kelly and Clymer
Do the Gophers take hockey seriously?
They have cheerleaders on skates…. That seems to demonstrate how important the game is…
Go Blue!
Game on!
Sheesh, DZTO, but save, Portillo!
pretty even play and we are checking some gophers quite well. go blue!
FUCK! They score, 1-0 them
Shit
Lucky fucks
Gotta get pucks deep. Block near the blue line led to transition & goal.
It was a bad shot from our defender (I'm not sure who) into traffic - should have never been made.
bad goal. portillo's slide over was sloppy.
Bad change? But Portillo saves.
Man, sure do love listening to the TV guys slobber all over the other team.
They all seem to slobber over Gophers - Gross
Gotta throw it deep when you know your boys are changing
Minnesota's blue line is so good.
Am I seeing things, or is Minnesota's ice surface wider than the rink at Yost?
They have a big rink
Olympic?
Ed: per the broadcast, yes. And they're going to shrink it for next year to an NHL size rink.
Minnesota has an Olympic rink. Wisconsin somewhere in between NHL and Olympic.
Fucking dive
D'OH! Interference on Hallum @ 15:29.
Let's go boys. Gotta kill this off!
We aren't getting that call if it happened to us
Estapa steals, but shoots right into the goalie.
1st net off, crappy MN supports.
and the gopher fans were whining about a penalty. it was the most inadvertent left skate by portillo as he makes a save and starts to get back up.
Yay, PK!
It would be helpful to possess the puck for more than 2 seconds
Nice PK.
Lots of neutral zone turnovers/traffic. We're struggling to get it from end to end with possession.
Damn, that period went by fast.
