Didn't we do this no too long ago?  Good call Andrew.

IMHO Dan Woog is one of the better players on the Gophers team.  Not the
best, not the fastest and certainly not the biggest, but he may put more
heart into his play than any other player on the team (maybe Brink or
Hendrickson).  I would also suggest that he had to work harder than any
player in a while to make this team in order to avoid this type of
comment.
 
I think that if more players played with the fire that Woog does that
the Goph's might win some of these tight checking games.  They certainly
aren't going to out hit the big teams in the nation, but a lot of heart
and thought will win the game quite some time.
 
Go Gophs!
