Posted on 18 Apr 2011 by Norm Duhamel.
According to NFL reporter, Albert Breer, a U.S. District Judge, Susan Nelson has ordered the NFL and the NFL Players Association to attend court-supervised mediation. Both sides came to the table on Thursday last week in Minneapolis, Minnesota with their first meeting lasting 8 hours. This is the first time they talked in 34 days. 34 days! What are they waiting for? It really doesn't s...

Illini Look to Run Over Golden Gophers
Posted on 11 Nov 2010 by Gregg Pluta.
At 11 a.m. Saturday, the Illinois Fighting Illini take on the Minnesota Golden Gophers at Memorial Stadium in Champaign, IL. Minnesota is horrible this year with a record consisting of just 1 win and 9 losses. The one win that the Golden Gophers has is over Middle Tennessee, please don’t make me name who all of their losses came against. The Golden Gophers are quarterbacked by senior Ad...

The Blue Jackets will play two games on the road and two games at home in the upcoming week. They will look to continue their undefeated streak on the road as they hold a 3-0 record. All three of their losses have come at home as they have struggled defensively, however, they have won their last two games at the Nationwide Arena. Saturday, Oct 30 – Columbus vs. Colorado Tuesday, ...

Preseason Notes: Game 1 Vs Milano (Milano)
Posted on 4 Oct 2010 by Jordan Lauterbach.
It was fitting, almost as if it couldn’t happen any other way, that Amar’e Stoudemire scored the first basket of the preseason for the Knicks. A quick, turnaround drive punctuated by an emphatic slam dirtied the Knicks score sheet early on in the 125 – 113 oversees defeat of a team denoted on ESPN.com as Milano Milano. Stoudemire made no secret of the fact that he i...

NORTHWESTERN LOOKS TO CRASH HOMECOMING IN MINNESOTA’S NEW HOT SPOT
Posted on 29 Sep 2010 by Ben Chiswick.
A brand new season begins on Saturday, and the Northwestern Wildcats (4-0) will be spending it with an old friend in a new house. Big Ten play opens this weekend, where the undefeated Wildcats visit the struggling Minnesota Golden Gophers (1-3) at the brand new TCF Bank Stadium right in the heart of campus. While the Twins more famously left the old Metrodome for Target Field, the Gophers found...

2010 Big 10 Predictions
Posted on 20 Aug 2010 by Adrian Fedkiw.
Hate it or love it the Ohio State Buckeyes are on top, and they have been since coach Jim Tressel took the reigns. Since 2002, their National Championship year, the Buckeyes have won at least a share of the Big 10 Conference Title 6 out of the 8 years, and there's no reason to think it won't be 7 out of 9 after this season. Except this year, Ohio State is looking for more than just a Big 1...

Forty Six!
Posted on 9 Apr 2010 by Shane Hoopfer.
Forty six times this season the Calgary Flames have scored two or fewer goals in a game. I want you to think about that number for a second. So forty six times the Flames have asked their goaltender to allow one goal or less in order to win a game. It's actually shocking how close the Flames were to making the playoffs with that number. Last night was the same story it has been all season in th...

Gamble Didn’t Work.
Posted on 22 Mar 2010 by Shane Hoopfer.
Brian Sutter rolled the dice again starting Vesa Toskala twice in the last three games. This time Sutter crapped out. Toskala was horrible allowing three goals in which he should have had aiding the Minnesota Wild to a 4-3 win over the Calgary Flames Sunday afternoon. The loss kept the Flames in 9th place in the Western Conference and I will go on record as saying I think the Calgary Flames wil...

Finally the world is coming around to my point of view…
Posted on 15 Mar 2010 by Ron Burr.
So I have been saying for a while now that this team is NOT the giant pile of stink that they have been for most of the last 10 years, that Andy MacPhail does in fact know what he is doing, and that even having to play almost 25% of our games against two of the monsters of the sport (Yankees and Red Sox) this team is going to flirt with .500 and be in line for a playoff spot next year. And ev...

Iginla And Toskala Lead Flames To Win
Posted on 7 Mar 2010 by Shane Hoopfer.
In a bit of a surprising move Brent Sutter gave Miikka Kiprusoff the day off as the Flames went into Minnesota to face the Wild. Vesa Toskala got his first start as a member of the Calgary Flames and was solid turning away 27 of 29 Wild shots posting the win in Calgary's 5-2 triumph. I am very happy to type the following sentence… Jarome Iginla showed up this afternoon and led the Flames ...

What Can Go Wrong…
Posted on 4 Mar 2010 by Shane Hoopfer.
This game pretty much followed the same script as most Flames losses before the Olympic break. Tonight the Flames lost 4-0 to the Minnesota Wild, while once again out chancing, and out playing their opposition while making the opposition goaltender look like a Vezina candidate. But tonight there was a twist… The Flames gave up after two periods. Calgary came out in the first period and pu...
