Krantz just wide off a face off.

Crowd (and announcers) sounding anxious  :-O

[TCHL8842]

Got some nice pressure in the last few minutes, seems like our size might be wearing down the gophers D.

According to live stats (thanks for the tip), 3:06 left in third.  "Wally and Glen" never tell us.  We're lucky to know what period it is!

[scoop85]

Shots now 8-8 in the third.  What an effort.  Wally and Glen are worried that their boys are wearing down.

whats the score?

[TCHL8842]

and we are going to OT

[Chris H82]

1-1 at the end of regulation

[scoop85]

OT ... Minny had a flurry at the end, but overall sounds like an even third.  I guess if before the game you gave me a chance to go to OT on Minny's home ice, I would have taken it.

Given how clutch some of our guys have been all year and how well Mckee is playing, we have a great shot.

If we are somehow able to pull this off (not woofing), it will rank as one of the greatest CU wins of all time.

Let's GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO RED!

Grind, Grind, Grind! Amazing performances from the younger guys. Quality work from everyone.

scoop Cornell had the advantage the whole third period.  Minnesota got some rushes here and there but Cornell was definitely the better team last period

[redice]

THIS is Cornell Hockey!!!   You're darn right we have a shot!!
At this point in the game, I think we have UofM right where we want em.
I am so impressed with how absolutely methodical this CU team is playing.

[TCHL8842]

i would agree with you redice, but overtime games can go any way even if one team dominates the other.

[scoop85]

The pattern in the tourney so far has been for the higher seeded team to win all the close ones -- time to bust that trend!
