Much easier to take this loss than some of the past ones just because this was a year where the Sioux were actually beaten by a more talented team and knowing this Sioux team overachieved and didn't have their typical talent level. I know some Sioux fans don't feel the same way as me but I'd like to see the Gophers win tomorrow bring the title back west again.
As much of a Gopher fan (including hockey obviously) as I am and as much as that apparently means that I'm supposed to hate North Dakota, I have a hard time feeling any hatred toward NoDak's team today. They left it all on the line and unfortunately came up short in heart-breaking fashion. I can only hope most Gopher hockey fans at least respect the effort North Dakota put out there last night. I know I do.
Having said that, here's hoping the guys can follow up with a title-winning performance tomorrow!
Your idea of him being classless is all because of 1 bad decision to let his feelings and a certain finger known to a ref right? Not trying to start an argument just wondering because every experience I've had with him he's been a great guy and willing to talk to any fans and take time out of his day and after games for it. He has a real nice personality and is a great guy even though the only thing some people can see is his steely demeanor on the bench and the incident with the ref.
