Only 540 tickets remain unsold as of a short time ago.

Student tix are sold out and I believe this is the first time ever they allowed 5 sections to be dedicated to students. I told my eldest bring as many friends as you'd like and I'll buy student tix for them - he was able to snatch up 14 of them before they sold out.

No idea how many seats will go unused (a huge problem for the program of late) but this should be their most well attended game in quite some time, and with a very quality opponent coming in should make for a great atmosphere.

Headin to the "X" for the Hawks game and then back home to watch the Rodents! FUN day of hawkey!!

[Hornets]

JACKSON NELSON SCORES 32 seconds in and we take an early lead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Hornets]

....and a minute later Michigan ties it up.

[Hornets]

First period in the books and some tremendous talent on display for both teams.....sadly, a late period goal by the Wolverines have them up 2-1.

[Hornets]

Uh boy....Wolverines go up 3-1.

[Hornets]

Gettin ugly.....Wolverines with a PP goal and now it's 4-1

[Hornets]

Wolverines dominate the first half of period 2 and it's 4-1 after 2. Would hope for a better 3rd period effort and see if they can make it interesting....

[Hornets]

Now Jackson Nelson gets a 5 minute major and game misconduct....Rodents didn't come to play tonight it appears.

[Hornets]

Those first 10 minutes of period 2 proved to be too much for our boys to overcome....glad to see they fought till the end but Michigan deserves the win and were clearly the better team tonight. A likely number 2 see now in the cards for us and let's hope they can forget about this and move on.

[Slap Shot]

The 2nd period was awful and doomed them in. I thought the refs missed a few calls, but you can't turn the puck over at mid-ice as often as they did and expect to beat a team that REALLY likes the big ice service like Michigan does.

Winning 15-0 is a pretty tall order, so if they have to lose a game that's the one. Use the result to remind yourself over the next 4 games they cannot afford to take a period off.

[Sellingguy]

that was a darn good hockey game to watch. gophers and michigan both very good and fast hockey teams.

[Hornets]

Well, lose a big game and it costs ya....Goldy headin to Massachusetts to, wait for it....play defending NCAA champ U-Mass!

Who do the Mavericks get after their clusterfuck of a game last night?

Playing Harvard in Albany...

UMass doesn't frighten me but obviously you cannot take any team lightly when you get to the tournament.

Western Mich is legit if both MINN and they win.

Potential FF semi vs. North Dakota.

Potential NC game vs. Michigan.

No easy roads - just play your asses off and let the chips fall.

[Sellingguy]

They did a good job laying out the brackets based on what guidelines are.
No upsets forcing a team in and one out this year.
No BC OR BU. Has the power in Mass shifted to Mass and Lowell?
3 from Michigan
4 from MN
Now lets just hope some fucking lacrosse game does not go to triple OT and we miss parts of games.
Should be a great weekend and new this year, day off between games for first round as well.

4 days of hockey and 12 games to get to 4.

Love it!

[Hornets]

WOW! Notre Dame ALMOST wins it with a shorthanded goal but it was a split second late....took 15 minutes for the refs to make a decision. Headed to OT

[Hornets]

Irish take down ND in OT....that breaks my bracket a bit.

[Sellingguy]

Well, that sucked. Now I will hope for a all Minnesota Frozen Four.

[Hornets]

CRAZY to think it's been almost 20 years since Goldy has won a title.....

[Hornets]

Rodents in trouble.....down 2-0 late in period 1

[Hornets]

Ryan Johnson with a late period goal and it's 2-1 after 1

[Hornets]

3-1 Mass....not good

[Hornets]

Anotha late period goal by Goldy and now it's 3-2

[Hornets]

Still 3-2...time becoming a factor.

[Hornets]

MATTHEW KNIES TIES IT UP AT 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
