Jimmy Snuggerud’s second goal of the night capped off a Minnesota men’s hockey season-opening victory, 6-5, in overtime against St. Thomas during a back-and-forth affair from Xcel Energy Center Friday night.
Brody Lamb scored twice in a four-minute stretch of the third period that erased a one-goal deficit and put the Golden Gophers in front before the Tommies pushed the game into overtime, scoring with less than seven minutes to play. Snuggerud closed out the night getting the first overtime goal of his career.

Is that Parrish on the call? Funny to hear him call the Gophers.
RTB SKI-U-MAH Go Gophers!!!
What a game!
Amazing game against St. Thomas
Good game but they play down to their opponent. They started the season at the X and if they do not finish the season there, well time to look for a new coach.
Hopefully Gophers back in the FF this season. St. Thomas played a good game!
Impressive comeback by the Gophers.
Got money for an extra ticket from the commission I made off the true coat
