Gophers Split With Sioux

Sorry... I guess i didn't really keep my word about covering the games but I have a life... actully it was more oout of laziness than anything else but I'm sure you all understand. Ther series with the Sioux was by far the best. The Gophers hustled for 60 minutes! I was so proud! although we feel apart on Firday and din't win i thought it was a great effort and the way the Gophers came back on Saturday was even better. I have to admit i was pretty nervous that last minute on sautrday. I wasn't sure the Gophers were going to make it with out going into OT but thanks to Alex Kangas the Gophers were able to hold on and take a split back to Minneapolis. The Gophers are now idle until Dec. 29 when they play RIT in the Dodge Holiday Classic. In other news 4 Gophers players were announced to go to the World Junior Championships in the Czech Republic, forwards Kyle Okposo, Mike Carmen Ryan Flynn and Defenseman Cade Fade Fairchild. Carmen is also eligible to play again after missing half of the season with academic issues. He will return to the Gopher line up on Jan. 11 with the rest of the Gophers when they take on St. Cloud State. Until the Dodge Holiday Classic.. Happy Holidays and GO GOPHERS!!
