Stalock is only 32? Seems like he's been driving me nuts for a lot longer than that.

First for wanting him on your team, then for wanting him off.

I thought Mikey Reilly moving the puck was too much cutsey out on open ice and not enough driving into hard areas.

For. Sure.

He got two All Americas for that cuteness, but, in the game that mattered most, his adversary, Shayne Gostisbehere, was the player I think you're talking about.

Speaking of this article I'm really excited about the team next year but especially the defense. Would love to see a fun, offensive defenseman. As others have commented I feel like we haven't had that since Mike Reilly. Other than Jake Bischoff his senior year No one on the current roster moves the...

Leopold was really smart to shoot that puck off the goal and into traffic. It caused the goal tender to move way out of his set position while the puck fell straight down. The goalie's feet were all over the place on that play. It was also sweet revenge that Schutte, who decided to show boat early i...

Reflecting on the weekend. Happy to move on. Lafontaine was awesome Ranta and Meyers dominated ND at ND and Sunday.

JFC I hope so. This game doesn't even go to OT if the Wild had league-average goal tending. The second and third goals that he gave up were embarrassing.

Fiala has an insanely quick wrist shot.

Reffing was pretty awful tonight. From the first call against McLaughlin for lifting a stick to the 5-min major against ND.

HM may have been the dark horse, but they outplayed three pretty good opponents, in addition to beating a good team to get to St. Paul. They earned the title.

An ugly win is a win. Notre Dame seems hell bent on focusing on defense this weekend. Fully expected ND to come out in the third and sew it up so they could catch a plane first thing in the morning.

Desperate times calls for desperate measures!

Soooo many times goals come as the result of players watching the puck. #19 on Hermantown watched the Mahtomedi captain skate right next to him but never even attempted to tie him up. There were four Hermantown players coasting to the front of their net when the puck went in.

Curious for the pulse of the fanbase on here...do you expect next season to be drastically different? Do you expect an NCAA appearance? This season isn’t over!!
