It will be tough for USA to beat them again. Miller will have to be on his game again. Canada still has all the pressure on them, so the US has to come out with top notch energy and play the underdog role - they have to play like they have nothing to lose and take it to Canada's defense and create t...

Well let's see, the number one seeds in sections 3AA, 7AA, and 8AA would have all been the 5th seed in section 6AA, so what is your point?

This is a tough situation for both teams. I had a JV game early in my coaching career where we beat Faribault 20-0. It was 15-0 after 2 periods. I had my guys on a passing rule in the 3rd and we still scored 5 goals. My top line was mad at me because they did not see the ice in the 2nd half of the g...

Just to clarify, Serratore, McMasters, and Sederquest made their own choices for their reason. The first time I met Steve Serratore was the 1st day of tryouts last year.....Derek and Taylor when they enrolled. They are at Mayo due to the District rules. When you transfer to our schools you are enrol...

I think the TV makes them look even worse/more off than in person.

I am sure it is harder than it seems. Much easier to speak when you are in your comfort zone.

Also, thanks Visa!

I know I am not the only coach reading threads, and am probably not the only posting either.

Comparing high school athletics to the NCAA is not even close to apples to apples. The top four teams in March Madness usually don't make the final four either. Goldy313 - It seems we agree if I understand you correctly - go back to the old way? I always look at the quarterfinal games Mayo had and t...

Many penalties went uncalled in the game on both teams. I did not see the shot after the horn. All I know is that it was loud. I was not looking but heard the shot his the pads then turned to see our player get decked. I guess both players should have received a penalty if that is the case. I am pro...

As a coach, seeding take away from the purpose of a state tournament. I can see why you seed the top four teams, but seeding all teams would basically make a cinderella story a thing of the past. Go back to rotating the sections and see what happens. The tournament had a more thrilling tone to it ba...

Yes, it was an amazing and exciting game. Of course I thought we should have and could have won if your PP had clicked like it has recently. I am also very proud of the fact that we were missing 2 of our top 5 defensemen, and that another two were gutting out becuase they were very sick yesterday. S...
