John King is back on the show and he is a bit concerned with this years team. Last week did look a lot better with the split of Penn State. This week they head west to play Denver in the Hall of Fame game. We get in to all of that and more on the show this week.
This Gopher team has been nothing but ups and downs so far this season. We have BTN's Paul Caponigri on to discuss what has been a down season so far for the team. After splitting with LIU, Minnesota now faces Penn State on home ice. We get in to all of it this week.
We have former Gopher Sam Rossini on the show to recap the bounce back sweep of Notre Dame. No suspensions from the Wisconsin/Michigan series? How can that be? Who is Long Island University?
Swept by the Badgers in Madison makes it 4 losses in a row for Minnesota. They have not done this since the end of the Don Lucia era in 2018. So we needed a therapy session to help us work up our confidence for the coming weekend against Notre Dame.
The Wisconsin State Journal's Todd Milewski joins the show as we preview the upcoming series against the Badgers in Madison. But first we get in to the debacle that was the weekend sweep of the Gophers by Minnesota-Duluth.
Former Gopher goaltender, Eric Schierhorn, joined the show as we talked about the split at North Dakota. Still a lot of up and down with this young team so far this season. How will they do against Minnesota-Dululth? We get in to that as well.
The amazing shootout streak is OVER! We had Brad Schlossman from the Grand Forks Herald on to talk about that big streak and also talk about the series this weekend along with how much college hockey has changed. For those of you that watch on YouTube, we had an extended Overtime segment as well.
Former Gopher and current part time radio analyst, Jack Ramsey, is back on the GPL Podcast. We spoke about the very inconsistent play by the Gophers in the split with Michigan Tech. So we got in to the good and back of the weekend. We also previewed the big weekend with Boston College coming up!
We kicked off Season #15 of the GPL Podcast with a special guest as Frank Mazzocco joined the show! He will be calling the games on TV for the first time since 2010 this weekend and we are very excited to have him back! We had a bunch of topics for the first show of the season. New comers. NPI. B1G. Top 20. And of course we previews the series with Michigan Tech.
Former Gopher Nick Angell along with lawyer and 20+ year GPL'er Eric Brever joined the show to talk about NIL and their new collective, Golden Helmet Collective. With all the craziness with NIL and college hockey happening over the summer, it was a great learning experience to hear from the both of them. Much of the show was NIL related, but we did get in to some off-season hockey talk and things happening at the U.
The Gopher season ended with a big THUD as they were eliminated in the 1st game of the NCAA Tournament. What went wrong? Blame the refs? It is not that simple. 6 underclassmen players have left to sign pro contracts. 5 players have graduated. There are a lot of spots on the roster for next season. Portal add. New recruits. So much to talk about on the final show of the season.
Former Gopher Mike Carman joined the show as we previewed the NCAA Tournament regionals coming up this weekend. The big guns need to show up if the Gophers are going to advance to the Frozen Four. We cover that as well as the small things that are important to make that happen.
The Gophers not only get knocked out of the Big Ten playoffs by Notre Dame. They lose Senior Aaron Huglen for the season to a broken leg in the process. We have Pat Micheletti on to vent all of our frustrations on this weeks show.
The Gophers earn a share of the Big Ten Title, but also will not have to sit idol this week and will face Notre Dame at 3M Arena at Mariucci this weekend. We cover the 4 out of 6 points they earned at Penn State and also previewed the rest of the Big Ten Tournament as well.
A big sweep at home over Ohio State sets up and even bigger weekend at Penn State with a small 2pt lead over Michigan State for the Big Ten Title!
We did this show from a fish house on Fish Lake in Maple Grove for the Fiber to the Fish House event by Gateway Fiber and Pulltab Sports! BTN's Paul Caponigri was our guest to help us preview the big weekend with Ohio State.
We are back from the bye week and ready for the stretch run! We thought it was a great chance to get John King from Pulltab Sports on for his yearly appearance on the podcast! We've got BADger sweep. Gum Chewing. 3 class State Tournament. Just to name a few of the topics! Fun show as we also previewed the big weekend at Michigan!
It's BADger week, so of course we are going to have Todd Milewski on from the Wisconsin State Journal! We covered the terrible weekend in East Lancing against Michigan State. Is that rock bottom? Hope so! Beyond that, we get in to how much better Wisconsin is playing these days, will it be enough to get in the the NCAA Tournament? What happens between Minnesota and Wisconsin this weekend? We cover all of it!
A big series with Michigan State also means we need a big guest to cover all of it. So former Gopher and current TV & Radio analyst Pat Micheletti is on the show to cover all of it. We get deep in to the 4 points against Notre Dame. Penalty kill issues. Goaltending. And what Minnesota needs to do this weekend against MSU.
Former Gopher Jack Ramsey was back with us for the first time in a year! He helped us recap the OSU weekend and preview the home series with Notre Dame. He may have some answers to help the Gopher power play too!
