So if they give away free tickets would they be more then 500 fans at the games. Embarrassing.

Great hockey games yesterday. i thought the Umass-Lowell game was the best. Not to take away from the Cornell victory. That was just a entertaining fast pace game.

I'll be pulling for all the WCHA games. I told myself if UND scores first i won't be commenting on them during the game. I'm superstitious like that. Gopher fans give me a roll call of who's going to the Xcel today? Scott I know you have tixs. Does anyone know if Maine's Spencer Abbott is playing today in the game against UMD?

Oh and Bryce keep the hunting pictures coming.

Ive got tiks, but still not sure If I am going to the games. I am just fine with watching them on TV. We will see, the wife has some stuff going on today, where she might not be able to go to the game and wouldnt be able to bring my daughter where she is going. I already I cant be trusted to watch the kid alone.

Are you going Brooks, I assume not because you didnt invite me out for beers.....hmmm.... Even that crabazz sioux fan JAG invited me to drink with him at Reids.

I was just looking at the brackets, before you get mad Solbes. I want the Gophs to beat Duluth to get to Tampa, however it would be pretty cool to beat BU and BC in the same tourny. Alot of guys from the 70's still hate the Boston schools alot more then the Sioux

That's ah...ummm...awesome. You have to be really bad to be that terrible. My wife and I are a combined 0-8. We did not consult each other on brackets ahead of time. She had Michigan going to finals, I had Miami. Both dead wrong.

What's weird is that every single game went to the program with less post season experience, which I hung my hat on. Winners UMass Lowell, Cornell, Union, and Ferris State.

ECAC: 2-0

Hockey East: 1-0

CCHA: 1-2

WCHA: 0-1

Gophers could beat Duluth or BC in Tampa (semis). You will have to beat the Abusives or the Broncos to get to Tampa. Understand what you're saying though, those teams had great rivalries back in the Herbie days.

You better get your butt to the X today. Ya I know, no alcohol. But that didn't stop us last year at the F4. Just gotta be a little more discreet. I think the usher even caught us once, but he seemed cool with it as we were talking with him quite a bit.

Agree with Brooks that Cornell had the same game plan as Michigan last year in the F4. Get up by a goal and trap like crazy. Was fun to watch just because Michigan got beat by the same strategy.

No tickets here, chained to the house with 2 kids and a prego wife. Once they are all potty trained some road trips are in order. It's been too long since I have seen some college puck on person. I might have to miss the Sioux game today but you can bet I will be in my cave glued to the tv for the rest of them.

Heading to the X now. Unfortunately I have to leave the rink about 5:30 to go to work and I won't be able to watch anything tomorrow. Planning on celebrating a win and then spend a period or two hating on both teams.

Not going here. I plan on goose hunting tomorrow so I guess I might be listening to them on radio tomorrow. I'll worry about after today.

Hey Scott is it you watching your kid or is it the other way around*grin*. Man I can't believe your not going. If I lived in the cities I would be all over that. Have fun at the game Yak. Don't take any cr@p from any Gopher fans.

Yah. Watching from home. Atleast the first game. The wife go due to family stuff. And I know my 2 yr old isn't gonna last from now to 8pm. So hopefully ill get over there for the 2nd game. Man I wish they sold beer. Maybe ill bring a flask. I don't know what it is but I really don't like being told I cantd drink at a game. Sometimes I don't even hav3e a beer at wild games. But this ncaa rules just earks me. Go gophs.

Sweet Wraparound goal from Parks. Sioux up 1-0 seven minutes in.

For some reason I'm still offended by their new unis. Seems overtly abusive to me.

NIce goaltending by western.... puck was going out in front of the slot and the goalie managed to snag it with his crotch and deflect it back into the goal

Heard that Spencer Abbott from Maine has been practicing without contact. He wants to go, but so far has not been cleared by the docs. Game time decision officially.

Sioux are really buzzing out there.

      Might not have to wear ear plugs when I mow!      That’s a spendy one.  It wasn’t hard to find one of those for $6k.  Comparatively and Ariens of the same size is $4,200.  A home owner grade JD for $3,900.  You could get into a commercial grade Z700 for maybe $8k.   I think the work I did today with mine would’ve killed that one there.

      On the south end...   This year's MN Fishing Opener weekend was not only great weather wise, the walleyes and saugers were caught in good numbers.  A main fish gut hauler working with a number of resorts commented it was one of the most productive opening weekends he has seen based on the amount of fish guts collected after the weekend. The goto presentation was a jig and frozen emerald shiner.  Emerald shiners are a staple in LOW and walleyes love them.  Other minnows worked also, but emerald shiners are a favorite of anglers for good reason.   Four Mile Bay held good walleyes in 12 - 18'.  Not a surprise as the walleye bite on the river during the spring season was good and as of late, sturgeon anglers have been reporting catching walleyes on sturgeon rigs.   The Lighthouse Gap area, Morris Point Gap and just in front of Pine Island held nice fish in 12 - 15'.  Across the south shore, 18 - 22' was holding good numbers as well.  As you can see, there are lots of fish around.     A quarter ounce jig in gold, glow white, pink, orange, chartreuse, or a combo of these colors tipped with a minnow worked well.   As a reminder, the limit of walleyes and saugers is a combined limit of six fish, up to four of the six can be walleyes.  All walleyes between 19.5 - 28.0 inches must be released.  One fish over 28.0 inches can be kept.  The possession limit in MN is one daily limit of fish. On the Rainy River...  Some nice walleyes were caught on the river this weekend, although most anglers hit the lake.  10 - 15' of water was the norm.     Sturgeon fishing on the Rainy River has been excellent.  The catch and release season continues through May 15th and then closes until the keep season starts up again July 1st. Up at the NW Angle...  Some nice walleyes were caught in 18 - 25 feet of water, a little deeper than anticipated.  Points were good as were areas with structure.  The morning and evening bite was best.       As water continues to warm, go to spots for walleyes will be neck down areas, shoreline breaks, points and bays.     The goto presentation was a jig and minnow.

      I found this dock wheel floating in Black Bay. If it's yours or you know whom it belongs to, go and grab it.
