Gobig, I'm not sure I'd call the Wild's undersized players slow... The team as a whole is too small and too slow. The small guys, some of whom may be fast, can't do anything in the corners and don't create any traffic in front, because they are easily pushed around. Watch a game and see how often t...

Parise, Zucker, Granlund, Fontaine, Spurgeon. There's plenty of room in the game for those under 6'. If anything, the move away from enforcers opens up more room for skilled players under 6'. I think as important as height, if not more so, is weight and a frame that allows an individual to compete ...

Once again, what really stands out is the height of these kids. Contrary to what some on this forum may believe, there is very little place in today's NHL for players under six feet (or for those who aren't close enough to six feet to be able to lie about it). You need crazy skills, quickness, and h...

Sats, rumor around the rink is RP is accelerating. True?

Haven't heard about any High School altercations, but a Lakeville South Pee Wee got into a pretty good one with a ref a couple weeks ago. Kid is a real head case, ended up taking a slap shot at the ref to show his displeasure with a call, but that's a story for the Youth forum.

Hey, Sats, did LVN finally move the freshman out of the top six? A good player, but definitely not top six on that squad.

5-2 now. Better off with empty net and 6th attacker at this point. Pathetic. Rapids will hang 10 on Saturday What's wrong with Lakeville North, Sats? Goaltending, defense, lack of a finisher, or are they just a weaker team than the last couple seasons? Read eazy98s synopsis above. It's pretty much ...

Not to change the subject, but does anyone have an update on the young man from Farmington who was carried off on a stretcher during the JV game? Hope he's ok.

Regardless of the game's outcome, I'm taking Sats over any of his or LVNs critics in a landslide! His bump in the BashSats thread was pure gold.

Perhaps Sats should be banished from Lakeville to live in Luverne? Based on the comments across the "bored", that would drive up the average IQ in both places....

Eigs is a guy with six kids to feed. It is very likely first and foremost, he will do what is best for them, which may include keeping his goalie son out of a no-win situation when he isn't ready for it. Secondly, he will do what is best for himself personally, which may include forming the best te...

Matt Foss from Northfield to LVN.

From a development/skill perspective, he's significantly ahead of where both of his brothers were at the same age. Both older brothers are doing just fine in the AHL and WHL, and have shown steady progress each step of the way. He's always been highly skilled and ultra-hyper-competitive. It's a pre...

Seems like a good topic for the youth thread....

Does anyone have any scores from Eagan's Summer Meltdown tourney?

Is it possible the LVS hire was to keep a goalie in the system who otherwise would be gone? I have no information to believe it was, just speculating. Keeping a top quality goalie could lead to other quality players staying. Also, LVN's talent pool, on the LVN side alone, is deeper than it has ever...

Scheerer in the 16s is less surprising than discovering someone actually subscribes to YHH's "premium" content.

But still none of the three added to the list :shock: Relax GBGH, no they are not on the HS Departure list on some blog forum, but all have very bright futures and have made much more important list by their accomplishments to date and likely many more to come in the not so distant future. News fla...

I do believe he is a noteworthy departure from the MN hockey scene, and for that reason added him to the thread. Why not mention Mismash or Reedy? Surely their departures are just as noteworthy. It's unfathomable that you'd know of Pratt's departure from Shattuck without knowing about Mismash's and...

Read carefully, because I'm only going to type this once... If you don't like my list, make your own dang list. My list has been, and always will be, a list of recent MSHSL varsity players who forgo their MSHSL eligibility to play elsewhere. I do not feel the need to explain my criteria... so I won...
