Looks like he might have gone with the Herbie approach. Ease up when they are struggling. He injected humor into a practice this week, by telling the players he was trying a new goalie. Just as the current goalies were getting pissed off, out skates P.J. Fleck in goalie equipment. Apparently Motzko cut it a little short because the kids were showing Fleck no mercy.

Big Ten hockey on BTN Thursday night! Wisconsin vs Penn State! Catch the fever!!!!!




twinsfan -> RE: Gopher Hockey (10/31/2019 7:05:17 PM)

Sadly, I can't find anything else better on TV tonight. The no baseball doldrums for me.

So the Badgers have a guy named Turcotte. Wonder if he is related to one of my favorite Hartfor Whalers of all-time, Darren Turcotte?

The name Turcotte does not bring hockey to my mind. Ron Turcotte the jockey on the Legendary Secretariat.

Alex Turcotte's father is Alfie Turcotte of the Montreal Canadiens. Can't say I remember him.

You gotta be kidding
83-99 wasn't out of your realm
He was fairly well known, well I guess if you watched the NHL anyway

Isn't it good that I remember Darren?




SoMnFan -> RE: Gopher Hockey (11/1/2019 1:32:59 PM)

Yeah I'll give you that one.
Whalers were like the North Stars of the East to me.
Pretty sweet franchise.
Ronnie Francis baby.

Gophers over Notre Dame 3-2 in 2 OT. Goes in the books as a tie, but got the extra point in B10 standings. These young kids are going to be fun to watch as they grow and get better over the course of the season. Be nice if they could come back and get a win today.




stfrank -> RE: Gopher Hockey (11/9/2019 9:28:13 AM)

Another Friday night double OT win that goes in the books as a tie.....
That goal by Nelson to end it was a thing of beauty. That kid has some skills to go with his size.

I will always be SCSU first, but Minnesota should be a Hockey Powerhouse. Hopefully Motzko can get them back to that level.

Yeah, Lucia hung around way too long and that really hurt this program.
Looks like we have a very good young core coming up, but as always, the question is will they stick around long enough to accomplish anything.

Football team took care of business, would be nice to see the hockey team do the same in Michigan this afternoon.




stfrank -> RE: Gopher Hockey (11/9/2019 6:54:27 PM)

Hockey team beats the ugly helmets 3-1 for a 5 point weekend in Ann Arbor. So if the BB team wins tonight I guess we can say we got a hat trick. [:D]




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Hockey (11/9/2019 7:54:12 PM)

If we were talking about the Wild one could point out that said hat trick would be an entire month of goals [:D]

I heard the Wild won last night so we already have the hat trick of wins.

Got our ass kicked 8-2 at home by PSU!
"Pride on Ice" has left the building........

Which was worse last night? The Gophers getting blized by Penn State or the TWolves not being able to guard Beal or Wagner?

I say the former....Twolves have never been consistently good. Gopher hockey was the one constant in MN sports where you knew the team would regularly be in contention for the frozen four.

Now we play a team with two players from Finnland on the roster and two from Russia.

I liked it better when the Gopher players would face Russians in the Olympics, not the regular collegiate season.

Gopher fans hated opposition was hated in part because UND used Canadians on the roster.




stfrank -> RE: Gopher Hockey (11/23/2019 8:22:28 AM)

Gophers take game one 4-1 against Bucky Badger last night. Got 2 quick goals early and a couple in the 3rd and played a pretty good game. Fun watching these young guys improve from game to game. If they all stay together long enough they could become a very good team. Play another strong game tonight for a sweep would really be nice.




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Hockey (11/23/2019 8:10:56 PM)

I don't get many Gopher games these days because of kids and geography but I got this one tonight. I think we are in good hands with Motz (may take some time though). We have a lot of young talent and I like how they move the puck.




Jeff Jesser -> RE: Gopher Hockey (11/23/2019 8:15:49 PM)

And just like that it's 3-1 GG's on a text book 2 on 1 [8|]




stfrank -> RE: Gopher Hockey (11/23/2019 8:44:17 PM)

Guys are playing another really good game so far. All they have to do is close it out and win the 3rd period.
