Friday Night Mites

North Dakota 5, Minnesota 3


Mites, because this is how the Gophers are playing on Friday nights these days. The first period against NoDak showed the Gophers raging to a 2-0 lead and it looked like they could not be stopped. In the 2nd period, however, the Old Dutch Lil Chippers showed up and NoDak took them to task.
Everyone looked terrible in period 2 and 3. I found myself saying aloud "That is the worst game I have ever seen". Thank the hockey gods for Saturday nights because it seems the Gophers can win on Saturday (at least lately). I am heading to the game tonight along with some NoDak fans (BOOOOOO) and I am hoping the furry little Midwestern varmints can give me something to cheer about.
