Nick Bjugstad and Kent Patterson are feuding, although it is all in good fun, said Paul Rovnak, the Gophers assistant director of athletic communications for men's hockey.

It started when Bjugstad was asked to do 60-second, get-to-know-him video for Gophers hockey recently.

The first question for him was, who has the best nickname on the team?

He said probably Kent Pattererson, the team's goalie. "We call him Kent the Cement. He can be quite the cement at times. He is not the most intelligent guy. But he is a funny guy, great guy."

The clip has almost 1,600 hits as of mid-afternoon Wednesday on YouTube. Bjugstad also answers serious and silly questions on it, like the music he listens to (rap) and which teammate he would most like to be stranded with on a desert island (Joey Miller).

After viewing it, Patterson went to Rovnak and asked if he could do his own short video.

It is all about Bjugstad. Patterson says he has heard that Bjugstad goes a week or two without brushing his teeth. He says that No. 27 needs a babysitter, a maid and a cook and has a trashy room.

Asked about the Kent the Cement nickname, Patterson said, "[Bjugstad] is the only one who calls me that because he has nothing else to say."

Patterson's clip is here. It had 579 views on YouTube by mid-afternoon Wednesday.

Maybe a little fake in-house bickering will help relieve some of tension as the Gophers prepare to leave Thursday for a big series at Nebraska Omaha.
