Pretty sure I’ve never quite seen this rink like this. #Gophers fans are in for quite a treat, maybe only other time was when Minnesota hosted an NCAA regional back in 2003 when they beat Mercyhurst 9-2 and Ferris State 7-4 en route to their 2003 NCAA Championship.

Still not sure how Brock Faber wasn't a Hobey Baker Top Ten Finalist last year, although I did get to watch him in person ~40 times during his career and that's when you notice his strengths the most. Such a consistent player that's on the right side of the puck 99% of the time.

#Gophers Justen Close gets the shutout in the 4-0 win over the Fighting Hawks, it's the 11th of his career and he is now only two shy of tying the team record of 13 held by Kellen Briggs and Adam Wilcox. Close made 25 saves tonight including a lot of big ones in the first period.

#Gophers got a commitment from Jackson Nevers this week. The forward from YHH No. 6 ranked Edina HS is having a great season with 11g, 3a in 10 games played.

#Gophers men’s hockey had a lengthy first practice today to kick off their season — highly rated freshman Oliver Moore and Sam Rinzel looked to fit right in with this group.

#Gophers Bob Motzko gave some injury updates on his team today -- Mason Nevers will be back this weekend, Mike Koster is probably a week away, Nathan Aiery is a full participant in practice and Max Rud will be day to day moving forward.

Heck of a career @MazzPuck — we will all miss your familiar voice on the airwaves and seeing you around the rink for a quick laugh.

Forty-seven years ago, with strong encouragement from my wife Deb, then seven months pregnant, I called my first hockey game. It was a plunge into a world of which I had a mere fan’s knowledge. Today, five teams later, I’m still learning; but the drive and curiosity ... 1/6

Part of me wanted to see Rhett Pitlick throw that stick into the crowd... probably best he restrained himself.

#Gophers hockey opened up bidding for their equipment contract again this season and CCM won the bid again for the next five seasons. The men's program usually orders about 700 sticks annually and women's team gets 324.

#Gophers Bob Motzko said everyone is back healthy and available for his hockey team headed into their series against Minnesota Duluth. He added that Mike Koster might be mad at him for saying this, but the staff will want to monitor the senior D's ice time this weekend though.

#Gophers Bob Motzko said he got 10 minutes into the film of last year's game versus Minnesota State and then he turned it off because they had two bad mistakes that cost them and then his team got discouraged. He hopes they learned from that last year.

Always something to see old vets hoist the Stanley Cup. I remember thinking about Kyle Okposo as one of the big #Gophers recruits as I started getting involved with @GopherPuckLive — amazing path!

I could definitely sense a change in attitude about this decision the last few weeks from Snuggerud and we’ve talked about it on the #GPLPodcast quite a bit that there is still more for him to develop while playing college hockey. Exciting news for fans and Motzko.
