Booooo!!! Hissss!!! Another uninspired gopher team makes the trip to grand forks. It's clear the only people who are excited about the rivalry are the fans. I'm ashamed of the Maroon and Gold. No effort and even less passion, I hope all those pretty boys get their contracts at the end of their lackluster collegiate careers. The only bright spot was Kangas. The Sioux are now 9-2-1 in the last 12, that's not a rivalry that's domination.

I think Lucia thinks that it is a no checking league that they play in. If the gophers don't play the body at all they will be lucky to win 10 games this year. I think Donny is done after this year anyway. With the talent he gets every year and to play like they did last night is unacceptable.

I didn't expect the Gophers to come back and as well as they did on Saturday. If they play like that the rest of the year they should go far. Like the post above they got two good goalies but I thought Patterson look a little better. I think the gophers will surprise some people this year. They have a tough team next week with Denver.

As for UND I'm pretty happy with how they look except for goalie Brad Eidsness. I know he got s shutout the first night but he has look rusty this year so far. I say give the nod to freshman Aaron Dell next week up in Anchorage. Go Sioux.

It sure was embarasing to be a Gophers fan. I am very disapointed in the way we played.Ya they came back and got a tie but they need to do something different. Yes they have lost a lot of BIG players to the NHL nad I cant blame them, but they need to find a way to keep players there for more than 2 years. Make them true Freshman go play a yr of Jrs.

Coaching- I think Lucia ia a great coach. Infact look at the players he has brought to MN, just wish he could find a way to keep them. I cant figue out why we still have Hill. He sucked when he was a head coach in Alaska and I think he still stinks. Let Potulny be main assistant and can Hill I guess it pays off to be good freinds with Lucia.

Bryce,

Maybe things are backwards this year, where the Fighting Pooh start fast and take a dive at the end, and the Goofers start slow and get a rollin' for the playoffs! grin

I always Love that one ... I fully expect the Sioux to fall flat on there face in the play-offs again they've played absolutely terrible hockey the last 3 plus post-seasons!....almost like clock-work actually!

I love this Fire Lucia comments!

Parity is here and has been here in college hockey the days of dominant teams are over we now have a wide open competitive sport in college hockey!

I think as a conference "wcha" if we get a lone team to the Frozen four that would be an accomplishment!

Was beginning to think you guys had finally seen the light and given up hope grin. I know, I know... most recent champions... blah, blah, blah... 2 in a row... blah,blah, blah. 17 more years and maybe you'll be able repeat that mantra wink. Hopefully the Sioux will keep picking them up here and there and stay in the lead for MOST National Championships. You do realize that you first have to reach the Frozen Four to win a championship. Have a good season guys.

      New boat question

      By Wanderer · Posted

      If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.

      New boat question

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...

      Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?

      New boat question

      By Crow Hunter · Posted

      We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
