[William H Bonney]

Minnesota's grad players coming up clutch

 

[Chainshot]

Big goal from Nelson.

 

[William H Bonney]

Gophers hanging on for dear life on that shift.

Gophers advance. Fun game.

 

[Chainshot]

Great game, a wonderful first day from an entertainment standpoint.

 

[JMCx4]

Minnesota fills the last Regional Finals slot among the Thursday competitors, defeating Omaha 3-2. Moving on to face BU on Saturday in Sioux Falls.

Thanks to @S E P H for starting this thread. Good night.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Going to be a sick game on Saturday, love watching both these teams this season.

Great day of games, let's hope for 3 more great games tomorrow plus a BC blowout!

Pretty horrible time to lose your edge, yikes.

E: Updated OP and added a poll.

No one will ever guess who I voted for

Day 1 Regionals game recaps from the winning teams' perspectives are posted in the Other Leagues/NCAA etc. forum. It's not as scary down there as you might imagine ...

I see we have a mess of bandwagoneers hopping on this poll ...

No to the BC blowout please we already had to deal with getting pumped 8-0 last year

// impatiently waits for last work meeting to wrap up.

Today's slate:

No. 1 Boston College vs. No. 4 Michigan Tech, 2 p.m. (ESPNU)
No. 2 Wisconsin vs. No. 3 Quinnipiac, 5:30 p.m. (ESPNews)

No. 1 Michigan State vs. No. 4 Western Michigan, 5 p.m. (ESPNU)
No. 2 North Dakota vs. No. 3 Michigan, 8:30 p.m. (ESPNU)

And in the time it took me to type this up, Cutter Gauthier scored 30 seconds into the game.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Man that really should have been a penalty shot.

Michigan Tech is gonna have to hope that they can keep this close for the next 2 periods and maybe sneak 1-2 late goals.

 

[MuckOG]

Shorties help.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Awful turnover by Smith to lead to a shorthanded goal.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Terrible period by BC, expect them to wake up for the 2nd.

 

[TLEH]

That should be 5 based on how I've seen it called.

 

[MTU34]

Ugly hit from Perreault. I’m extremely biased but toss him

 

[Cush]

ejected

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

BC playing really loose hockey.

 

[TLEH]

BC playing really loose hockey.

Feels like bad coaching at a certain point. Why are they taking so long to adjust to the NZ trap. Why is their defense not skating the puck up to the blue line and dumping. It’s one guy. Beat one guy and get the forwards with some speed.

They keep trying to pass to a forward and then dump. Make the D dump.

[Chainshot]

That was pretty gross.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

That's the right no goal call.
