Re: Playoff Games Thursday 2/29/24

4 of 7 games won by the underdog tonight. And Andover still has the chance. I prefer GR myself, so holding out hope.

3. Edina 4. Chanhassen 11. Hill-Murray 12. St. Thomas 13. Andover 18. Centennial 23. Cretin 25. Grand Rapids 29. White Bear Lake 30. Elk River 61. Rochester C/JM This hasn't been a good HM team. The fact they could clock in at the 3 seed (beat STA twice) is insane. Got to win tomorrow though...

Hill or MG could be the three. And the 3 may get a much better draw than the 4.
I'll take 4 with a Chanhassen #1 on Friday night.
I'll take #3 with a #2 Chanhassan in the opener on Friday.
Chan beat Tonka, Edina didn't. I'd vote Chan #1.

Re: Playoff Games Wednesday 2/28/24

Was this non-goal in the first period? I tried to find it today on the stream, but don't see the play at all.

There's the breakaway for Gentry after its 2-1, but the video shows that hitting the post.

Re: Section 4AA

Well they wanted HM v WBL and now they got it. The public should be pleased.

I was really surprised Stillwater rolled over the way they did tonight. Didn't see a lot of fight. Always hard to get down early.

Re: 2024 Girls State High School Hockey Tournament

Congrats to Edina. I'm not sure if Hill would get a goal had they played 6 periods. In the end, Edina was deeper, better defensively and had a better first line. That said, I'm satisfied with a second place finish. Not many thought HM would finish the tournament higher than Andover and Minnetonka. S...

Re: Playoff Games Saturday 2/24/24

4AA Quarterfinal (8) East Ridge 1 (1) Hill-Murray 4 (eng) Final Didn't see the game but surprised by the score. Maybe it was the 11AM start or the knowledge that East Ridge was probably not going to win that had Hill not on their A-game today. IDK. I see they outshot them like 60-17. Lets see if th...

Re: 2024 Girls State High School Hockey Tournament

HM 2-0 already. Could be a long night. I think you meant celebratory night! My team is looking pretty good. Andover is better at forechecking, but man does HM create opportunities. 3 goals from no more then 4 feet out. Ah makes sense now. Hill and the Maple Grove are up for goalie of the year. 27-1...

Re: 2024 Girls State High School Hockey Tournament

There is a reason we have progressed as a society. Going to this archaic way of tournament play is a disaster if you actually care about finding who the best teams are. If you are one of these "we need graphical representation" people then I guess it works. But for those who want the best teams pla...

Re: 2024 Girls State High School Hockey Tournament

Warroad dominates the second half of the first period and takes a 1-0 lead over Holy Angels to the break. I saw AHA play HM earlier this year and it was a very even game. Surprised Warroad is finding such success. Could be AHA is nervous.

What a fantastic game between Dodge County and Orono. Impressed by both teams, sad to see a loser. Dodge County goalie was phenomenal.
Was a great game. Orono was deeper, but Dodge County skated hard and deserved everything they got.

Re: 2024 Girls State High School Hockey Tournament

Dodge County is out-working Orono. Tied 1-1 halfway through, but could go any which way. Impressed with Dodge County.

I post that and Dodge County gets two quick goals. 3-1 Dodge County.

For the 6th straight season Minnetonka, Andover and Edina all make the semifinals.....time is a flat circle indeed Also Edina 14-0 all time in state quarters, Minnetonka 10-0. Pure domination I was surprised to see Tonka hasn't won a title in over 10 years. Since they won three in a row. The powers...

Re: 2024 Girls State High School Hockey Tournament

So question for those of you paying more attention than me. Should we be worried with the plethora of 8th and 9th graders on the varsity teams of the state participants?

Re: 2024 Girls State High School Hockey Tournament

Andover on a 5-5 power play pretty much the entire game. On the bright side, this won't help them prepare for tomorrow.


I'm watching the 2nd OT between Wilmar and Fergus as its more entertaining.

Moorhead doing the jig right about now. Competition dropping like flies They have to get past Elk River first. I know they beat Elk River 6-3 during the regular season. But they also beat Brainerd 8-1 just a week ago, and only won 4-1 tonight. Very unimpressive win, in my opinion. This year, anythi...

Take the ratings and bias out and go back to the old way the boy's tournament used to be set. The tournaments were set up years in advance by a random rotation of sections playing each other in the first round. Certainly made for some fantastic tournaments! I miss it too. And I'd be all in favor of...
