A 10 minute mile is fast and requires a fairly experienced and athletic person. Even if they're a shorter distance runner, this is a pretty solid pace. I'm guessing a lot of new recruits can't meet this...

Agreed! That game was brutal!

Bahahahahaha! So true.

Ève Gascon is the best goaltender in #womenhockey #UMD #hockey #WCHA

Interesting that @collegehockeynews.com calls themselves the definitive source for college hockey news, analysis etc…yet include nothing about women’s hockey. Mb just change it to “men’s college hockey news” and call it what it is? Men’s hockey isn’t the default…some of only watch women’s hockey 🤷🏻‍♀️

😂 My condolences. I graduated from there. I left. Forever. You missed a good game!

Oooohhhhh! I found his "data." It's from...wait for it...2008: www.justice.gov/archive/ndic...

It certainly speaks to the value placed on women’s collegiate sports. I can’t imagine that happening in a men’s game…I mean, why would they have new equipment for the 2024 NCAA goalie of the year? She only beat out Kirk and Phillips that year. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I’m glad we won, but that kinda s$&# makes me so mad.

Was this headline written by AI? What does this even mean?

🤦🏻‍♀️They are terrible. But the worst part is I feel like they’ve announced games before. Unfortunately, women’s hockey games are hit or miss. At Mankato State last yr, the announcer used the word “ladies” and continuously called players defensemen when the Gophers played there.

Spot on. Or any other incredulity about how "did we get here?" We've been here. It's just now impacting you for the first time.

I’m also a Northeastern alum and love seeing them do well! I read Kendall Coyne-Schoffield’s book and it was fun to learn about her time there! (Also a big PWHL fan) Honestly, I love seeing women’s hockey grow and succeed. It wasn’t an option when I was in school.

I've always loved hockey, but was in raising small childrenland for awhile. We started taking our three kids to Gopher games a few years ago and they all really liked it. Now we're season ticket holders and all in. I used to watch men's when I was young, before women's. I've never been into the NHL.

Also, I'm desperate for more women's hockey talk on here...I couldn't take the hellscape of Twitter. And honestly, I don't really follow men's hockey 😂

I'm always shocked MI doesn't have any teams!

Also, great article! I look forward to seeing what SCSU does this year!

"My" team is one of the big 3 (Gophers...), and I want to see more women coaches. I see a number of teams in the WCHA that continue to grow more competitive w/female coaches and I'm here for it! (Also, SCSU is my alma mater and my daughter has played in Mira's AAA tournament. She's GREAT :) )

My cat’s breath smells like cat food.

The Gophs had great defense overall, but she had a shutout in her first season game with 28 shots on goal as a first year.

Layla Hemp 😊

Also, never mind. I didn’t even know hints were a thing, so I guess I do play in “hard” mode?

Raw doggin’ it 🤣😂🤣 Me too! Is her goal to always only get it in 2 or 3? Is she in hard mode? Or is it that hard for her to always get it at all? I guess I don’t do hard mode, but I generally don’t miss the word.

I agree. Would loved to have seen a blowout. It's hard to say why.

Hortman won with 63% 11/24 w/more than twice as many people voting overall. She’d been elected multiple times and was the speaker of our house. This is a TC suburb voting for a state house seat in a special election. He really had nearly 61% of the votes so he was pretty close to what she had. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Ew. MPLS/St. Paul has a large Hmong and Laos community due to displacement after the Vietnam war. People in our community don’t need to change their names to assimilate bc you don’t want to bother to learn pronunciations of names from different cultures. FYI that is racism 🤷🏻‍♀️

Hartman won 63% to 37% in 11/24, so he did better. This is the MN NE suburbs 🤷🏻‍♀️

I have said for a long time…our country doesn’t have a gun problem. We have a gun culture problem. And I think those are different.

Thank you for sharing this.

Right. But the important thing is that he looks attractive for the viewers at home 🤦

Sending all the good thoughts to your dad and you! My great grandfather had this type of surgery years ago when he was in his 70s and lived to be well into his 90s. I'm certain your dad is in the best of hands in the hospital--the staff and you!
