Wonder if Boldy will call it a career and head for Minny to finish the season? I think he's ready...

Back then it was 'Whistle Stop' pizza but Ken bought the original owner out (the original location was across Woodland, where the liquor store now is) and over the course of 30+ years built into what it is now. Used to sit back at The Reef on tuesday nights when he'd do karayoke. Always chose a Blue Oyster Cult song.
I remember that spot being a pizza place, now that you mention it.

The reef was an okay place for a while. I haven’t been there in at least a decade, though...
2 decades for me tbh. The hang outs of your young adult days,,,,,,,,

Mankato 100% earned that win, but it would have been nice if Minnesota made them work a bit harder for it.

I will be rooting for the Mavericks in the FF for sure.

Yeah, agreed. Game was mostly even till MSU scored that first goal and from that point on our fellas didn't have an answer. It was a no doubter for the Mavs and they certainly deserve it. :cry:

i think it's foolish not to be playing the frozen four this week because of the covid. thursday semis and saturday night championship wouldn't interfere with the men's basketball tournament at all. be a shame if one of these teams is eliminated because of it.

Pretty cool that 3 of the final 4 are from Duluth, Mankato, and St Cloud. Too bad Bemidji couldn't join the party.

it is not a covid move. it has always been a 2 week break because of basketball.

i didn't make myself clear. i know that they take a two week break now-though they used to do it like i think they should do it this year. i think they should have reverted to that schedule again because of the covid. get the tourney wrapped up as quickly as they can. one extra week between games is just that much more chance for a team to get shut down.

It has been a 2 week break for at least 20 years. I do agree with you for many reasons.
I also think the NCAA needs to stop with the 4 regionals and go to 2. Boston and St Paul.

1984. I was 8 years old. That game broke my heart. The tying goal by BG late in the 3rd was a total fluke weird carom off the boards on a dump in. UMD shoulda won that game 4-3 in regulation.


I can still probably name a dozen guys on that team from memory.
that was a tough loss. they hadn't ever won a national championship at that time as well i believe.
No they had not.


They took 3rd the next year. Lost to RPI (eventual National champ) in the semi.
i just saw this just in case you want to go down memory ice with the bulldogs. :mrgreen:

Happy for my Huskies to finally make it back to the Frozen Four. Not even close to the team I would’ve picked to do it. Not sure if it was on purpose with Larson but the team had a Bulldogish vibe this season and into the tournament.

Kudos to UMass. As a Minnesota sports fan that was tough watching that overtime....UMass just absolutely dominated and the Dawgs had no response. St Cloud is gonna have their hands full THAT is for sure.
