Anyway, I'm old. Hear from Carter on the weekend preview pod, coming tomorrow wherever you get such things. My chat with Brett Larson will be in there as well.

At the risk of sounding like @russohockey.bsky.social, had a chance to talk to UMD freshman defenseman Carter Murphy today. His dad, Curtis, was an All-American at North Dakota and went on to a 17-year pro career that included one game with the Wild in 2002-2003.

Availability report from Scott Sandelin for UMD vs. Minnesota this weekend in Duluth. Unavailable: Max Plante, Kade Kohanski, Trevor Stachowiak. “Availability” is how Sandelin said he will address the “injury” report going forward.

I'm not going to make it much longer, but happy to report that I saw some of all 16 games tonight. You need goals in life.

I did not have Nathan MacKinnon fighting Roope Hintz on my bingo card.

UMD is prominently featured here.

1. There are still face value tickets available through UMD. 2. There are hotels all over the area, many within a 10-15 minute drive of the rink. I love Canal Park, but you are not required to stay there when attending games. 😅

UMD is seeing a real issue with people getting game tickets from scam artists and not from real sellers. This weekend's men's hockey games are NOT sold out as of yet (Saturday is closer than Friday). Get your tickets through UMD if you can, but be REALLY careful with secondary sellers.

I have zero memory of 1982. This team is two wins away from doing something I never thought I would see them do. I don't know what else to say at this moment.

I'm going to end up in the hospital before this series is over.

This somehow undersells what we just saw.

Nah, I'm okay with him not knowing.

GREAT at bats from Turang and Bill. (A little ABS luck for Brice helped.)

Every time I watch Yamamoto pitch, I'm left to wonder how anyone ever hits him.

PODCAST Pat Micheletti joins the show to talk a lot of college hockey items, including Arizona State's situation and the strength of the CCHA. Oh, and Bulldogs-Gophers. omny.fm/shows/the-br...

Joe Davis is a better man than I am, because if I had to keep hearing this "HE'S BIAST" horseshit, I'd go over the top on the first good thing the Brewers did today like they'd just won the World Series on a 27-strikeout, 81-pitch, nine immaculate inning perfect game from Misiorowski.

Hard to believe hiring an unfunny chud to host your live TV show might go south on you, but here we are.

Looks like we had the wrong former North Dakota coach picked for the interim job at Arizona State. @chn-adam-wodon.bsky.social says it's Dave Hakstol. That's a curveball.
