Minnesota is Team of the Week, fresh off becoming the first team in 82 seasons to shut out Michigan in back-to-back games. The Gophers are rolling right now, despite being banged up, and doing it with a balanced attack in all phases of the game, plus the breakthrough season for defenseman Sam Rinzel. We talk about them, and the whole Big Ten, with former Gophers star and current broadcaster Pat Micheletti. ... And then we welcome back first-year Miami head coach Anthony Noreen, to discuss his team's fortunes, and a bevy of other topics. Most notably, given he's just one year removed from the USHL, we talk to him about the influx of Major Junior players already being committed, how the USHL is and will react, and more.
