I'm going to disagree with that. I doubt that a third liner from varsity hockey would be on a line with Buddish and Bjugstad as a freshman. He was making things happen all night on the ice, including on his goal. Sure Sacred Heart isn't the best team, maybe even worse than east, but he didn't do too bad against them eithergreen4 wrote:i could take some 3rd line player off east or another good high school program put him in Rau's spot and there is a decent chance he could score against sacred heart.
tell us when he scores against a good team
hard to tell over just reading my text but i was trying to be sarcastic, obviously most 3rd line varsity players woudnt score in that game, it was just the fact that the gophers won 9-0 and 3 freshman scored in the game that makes me not care so much about Rau scoring against themoldtendy35 wrote:I'm going to disagree with that.

tough kid but it won't be the last time you see that happen to himMNHockeyFan wrote:In the game against Sacred Heart last night Rau got absolutely smashed into the boards, and I didn't think the kid was going to get up. He was obviously hurting, but managed to shake it off and even continued his shift. I thought he really showed his toughness on that play.
U mad bro? Or still a little bitter about what happened this March?green4 wrote:i could take some 3rd line player off east or another good high school program put him in Rau's spot and there is a decent chance he could score against sacred heart.

EP two out of three.
No way! He'll be targeted again?! Is it because his last name is Rau? Or maybe because he was a star player for Eden Prairie? Or because he scored the game winning goal in the State Tournament for Eden Prairie? Or is it simply because no matter how the Gophers are doing at any given point in the season wearing a maroon and gold jersey with a big 'M' on it automatically makes you a target on the ice????? Hmm... I like Rau. I think the kid plays with a lot of heart. I don't think one goal in the first game of the season is going to tell us what kind of college hockey player he is or will be. Yea it was against Sacred Heart, but still he buried the puck. Enough said. Not to mention that was when Sacred Heart was still putting forth an effort.

im not a east fan so i don't have really much to be bitter about. ep was a good team who deserved the state title, they went through section 6 and beat wayzeta in the final which was in my mind the championship since i thought they were the two best teams all year, im not mad either i just think Rau is alittle over hyped

I dont think anyone is really hyping the guy up all that much. Anyone talking him about being the best Fr. in the WCHA or winning the hobey baker? No...
But Green4 keep in mind he did lead the USHL in scoring during the playoffs. So, of course there is going to be hype about this kid. He did it the way some would like to see kids do it. (Play through your senior season in HS). So, of course people are going to talk him up.

Time will tell how he does. The biggest challenge for him will be handling the physical part of the game. Someone mentioned he hit the boards hard and got back up. That is a lot easier to do in the first game than it is in the 20 game of the year. Interesting to see how he holds up since he didn't get hit much in high school. Might be hard for him to adjust kind of like Ness had problems with it; although I will say he might have it easier since he is a forward compared to a D-man.
Kyle has been hit hard before many times and always gets up and next shift either gets a goal or drills someone himself. It will be fun watching him.warriors41 wrote:Time will tell how he does.

Yeah for real. Rau has not been kind to that town over the last six months.Edgeless wrote:Tigers33 wrote:Does UMD count as good team for rau to score against?
I am going to say the bulldogs qualify as a good team. Duluth gotta be getting tired of Rau torching that town. He will have a bullseye on his back again tomorrow night. Tough kid.
