Re: 2024 Girls State High School Hockey Tournament
First time in a while its looked like a random draw as Tonka, as the #1 seed, gets Maple Grove. A tough first round matchup for sure. Minnetonka had the same tough 1st round match-up last year against Centennial/SLP, and barely got by them. Here’s the field with their rankings, for what it’s worth:...

Re: 2024 Section Tournaments
They all were, if you wanted to pay. 6 of the top 11 teams in the last AA poll failed to make state. Pretty crazy. The last ranking on the girls hockey hub shows 6 of the top 10 making it. 1.

Re: 2024 Section Tournaments
Or cap AA at top 40 or so enrollments plus opt-ups and put the rest in A. The enrollment cut-off is far too arbitrary particularly in this sport. Not sure what the exact solution is but MSHSL has to think outside the box and avoid these games. Right on, cap at 40 or 48 for class AA (or make it Clas...

Re: 2024 Section Tournaments
Northfield wins 18-0, up 9-0 seven minutes into the game. What are we doing? Why is Austin in AA? I agree. AL’s enrollment is only 760 and the MSHSL cutoff for AA was 1047 and above. That means they elected to play-up. Makes no sense. Also, I would have no problem with a running clock starting in t...

Re: Games of the Night
SOS for South Suburban teams in particular is a bit of a vacuum as over 70% of their games are against one another. But I agree with what I think you're hinting at, I fully expect both North and South to make it but will be overwhelmed by the top teams at state. (Even though they both have a qualit...

I was telling some folks at a game the other day, this 8 team field in AA may be the deepest ever. It is entirely likely all 8 sections send someone with 5 or less losses. Anything can happen.

With O'Hara (59 pts) and O'Hearn (29 pts) graduating, 116 points has disappeared from the core of their offense. Centennial's top line will still be goo...

Of the 4 NESCAC schools in the tourney, Middlebury and Colby have records of 16-7-3 and 17-7 respectively. Meanwhile, UW-Eau Claire, the first team out, has a record of 22-4-2, ...

Re: tourney
Pretty obvious they are poorly coached. No adjustments and power play has no creativity and forces plays. When your first unit is all signed with umd/um I expect to see something ultra impressive. A 5-3 with Ava Lindsey standing 70 ft out on the half wall and forcing marginal plays to the net says ...

Re: AA semi's - Who do you like?
I don’t care who wins tonight and from looking at past games for both, it’s too hard to predict. I just hope that it goes 2 or 3 OT’s and there’s no cheap-shots.

Agree with eagles. Sometimes I think girls play better as underclassman like tonka did last year as primarily juniors. I don’t know if the pressure of being seniors got to these girls or what. They looked uninspired and played like it was another game in January. I was at the game and thought gentr...

Cent/SLP certainly made things interesting. Hats off to them for a great effort. I wonder how Tonka is feeling after that. Nice to see at least one good contest today. Unshocking blowouts in the other 3 games (combine 22-0). After those efforts, Cent/SLP should be able to take the consolation champi...

Re: tourney
Shame on the MSHSL and Warroad’s staff. 8-10 goals makes the point. 15 is an embarrassment. With the disparity in talent maybe it’s time for 3 classes: eight team double A tournament, and two four-team tournaments for A+ and A-. Agreed. Even if another class is created, Warroad is small enough to s...

Warroad 15 - Albert Lea 1
So this is what the Class A tournament is supposed to be all about? I’ve have had enough of them at the Class A level. Grow-up Warroad, and make the move to AA. What are you afraid of?

Re: Links to Newspaper or Web Articles About MN Girls Hockey
Interesting. Does Stillwater not offer gym class? Worth noting that Stillwater's current starting goalie went to Gentry and benefited from that daily training before moving back to the Ponies. Volk's reason to not schedule Gentry going forward is far more valid than Cashman's. It is an interesting ...
