The "all-Minnesota thing" has nothing to do with the fact that the Gophers
aren't in the tournament this year. They simply weren't a very good team for
a lot of reasons--only one goalie and he was inexperienced, weak defense,
lack of snipers, lack of development, etc.  But all you Gopher haters
beware, they will be back.  Meanwhile some of us will enjoy watching UND
coached by a Minnesotan with a number of Minnesotans on the team and four
new ones coming in, including three straight from HS.
