TV Coverage

Figured this topic will get started eventually anyhow but I’ll get the ball rolling with something other than Mike McGraw’s glasses. Remember when Phil Housley kept calling Marshall (Duluth) goalie by the name of “Paul Willie” instead of Willie Paul? Those were the days. Back to the point…why doesn’...

Re: 2023 Boys Hockey State All-Tournament Teams

How does the goalie from the class A state championship team that beat both Warroad and Hermantown and outshot both games not make the all tournament team. I'd have gone with Nick Hansen (Cathedral) and Charlie Brandt (Mahtomedi) for the goalies...and by quite a bit. The state tourney may have been...

Re: The Hermantown Thread

You just don't get that Hermantown develops its players and its the hockey program that attracts players to its program. Is that not what every community strives for? Wrong. Hermantown doesn't develop talent, they collect it. Over half of the talent that comes out of Hermantown were known to be goo...

Re: Section 3A Final (3/1/23)- #1 New Ulm vs #2 Luverne

Anyone know if this one will be streamed? If so, can you post a link?

I thought I saw that it was, but can’t seem to find it. I may be on crack.

Re: Who wins? Monticello vs St. Cloud Cathedral - Section 5A Championship

I thought the game was as even as the score and shot totals indicate. in my opinion, Cathedral had a deeper team with a couple more scoring chances, but Monticello clearly had the best player on the ice in Dahlheimer. He had a bunch of chances in the third period and finally capitalized at the end t...

WCCO TV reporting now that the judge has ruled against the 9 players.
Well, this years’ tourney is a hard pass for me... don’t care at all if this is how the MSHSL is going to act. Garbage way to end a garbage year.

Re: Games Friday 1-28-20

Ugly Match-up! Glad to see SCC did some aggressive scheduling this winter :roll: It’s a traditional rivalry, and with both teams essentially operating as independents I’m sure it was scheduled well in advance. No doubt the matchup will end if Lourdes remains down. Cathedral currently has the highes...

do you know anything about SCC’s roster? Losing Smith is big..but saying this makes Alexandria and or Little Falls basically even? You either don’t like SCC or don’t know much about their roster. Even without Smith they have 2 D1 commits ( how many does Alex and little falls have?). On top of that ...

Not if they played the same schedule as they played this year...already playing Moorhead, Roseau, Brainerd, etc. Playoffs at the Sanford Center in Bemidji would be less travel than trips to Amsoil.

Re: Class A State Seeding

I think SCC would get the #1 seed over Totino should the Eagles beat Mahtomedi tonight. TG would be 0-1 vs. the Class A field. The only game being a 7-2 early season loss to EGF. SCC is 3-0 vs. the Class A field, all against teams that appear likely be seeded (EGF, Greenway, Delano). The only reason...
