I just pulled these stats out of the Minneapolis Strib...
The Gophers and Wildcats are 7-7-6 in their last 20 games. Northern
has a 2-1 edge in playoff games since 1988, and the Gophers beat the Wildcats
in a Hall of Fame Game. This leaves them 9-9-6 overall.
Only 5 of the last 26 games in the last 6 years have been settled by more
than 2 goals.
Tonight they are playing each other for 1st place in the WCHA. What a
barn burner. I can't wait.
(For those of you planning on attending, only single seats remain but
I'm sure you could get a pair outside before the game starts. Remember,
there are no bad seats in the house.)
