When Rhett Rakhshani went on a three goal scoring spree in St. Cloud last Saturday night he could not have imagined that he was putting the lives of two hard core DU hockey fans on the line. But as the game swung in DU's favor, our fans were suddenly the focus of 6,000 angry losers who wanted to vent their frustration.
Of course matters weren't helped when CO14ers threw his "DU Hockey" hat onto the ice after Rakhshani's third goal. Who knew that this type of spontaneous celebration was frowned upon in the "State Of Hockey?"
As the Husky fans were booing them, the whole student section started chanting "Asshole" and pointing at our boys. Things reached a fever pitch when Blizzard, the SCSU mascot, stood behind them with his arms crossed and shaking his head as the clock wound down to 00:00.

Great recap. Almost like being there, and what a weekend to select for a trip!
Co14ers, you must have a pretty overall good W/L record on these roadies, eh?
Sounds like a great trip. Wish I'd gone.
Oh man great stuff!

Yeah, I actually thought about how fortunate I've been on my DU out of state road trips. Here's the recap:
Columbus in 2005
DU beats CC, UND
2005-2006
DU Sweeps UAA @ the Sully
2006-2007
DU loses to Miami, beats Colgate @ Goggin
DU Sweeps Bucky @ Kohl
2007-2008
DU Sweeps SCSU @ Cement Center
So, I guess I'm 9-1. Pretty good winning percentage when I'm in the house on the road!
That IDIOT soccer fan in that classic picture should be blotted out. Otherwise, the report was the bomb. Good showing boys!
Sounds like a great time and your road record is great.
