Re: Minnesota Hockey Taking Over?

One question around the third liners are all going to go be stars with their buddies playing junior gold now and the coaches are going to lose them. If that was such a great option.......what would have been stopping that same kid from doing that last year or the year before?

Re: Hub for hockey players?

Hunter......I’m on your side on the topic but just going to be honest with you, You’re being completely irrational. Take a deep breath.......count to 10 and calm down. You’re simply not effective in making the point you’re trying to make with the approach you are taking.

Re: 2020 Elite League rosters

The league is almost all good. No question about it. But man, they could help themselves avoid a lot of questioning of their credibility by paying just a little bit of attention to the insider moves the coaches make. It’s a great league. The spots are precious. It’s unfortunate they don’t always loo...

Godly.

Exposure levels would be entirely different than the general population I’d thi...

Re: Early Departures 2020-2021

Be interesting to see how it plays out. Not sure if I’m interpreting your comment right WestMetro......but are the odds higher that the high school season will happen.....or are the odds higher that the junior hockey season will happen?

Do you mean the Grand Forks officer Elliott? I don’t believe there has been an officer shot in Moorhead.

Also, how about if we drop all the hyperbole and drama. Good time for the 24 hour rule. Don’t blow your credibility on the board. Calm down. It will be fine.

That’s my point. McFeely doesn’t know enough about hockey to understand that his article is pointless and unnecessary......or even the meaning of what he is writing and how it fits in the landscape which he has no knowledge of.

Mike McFeely is a basketball guy who Know very little about hockey. Save your breath. And no, northern hockey isn’t ending because Duluth East didn’t make it to the state tournament this year. Move along. There’s nothing to see here.

Re: AA Line Charts

Some of the teams post them on their twitter handles. I thought Moorhead did so looked at theirs. The last one they had posted was for the Section semifinals. No idea if it changes much or not.

Re: Seeding for State

EP is actually 0-2-1 against state tourney teams.

To Spehars comments on Twitter......the 2-4 seeding is more complicated than people are giving it credit for when you look at the meaningful comparisons I think.

One thing worth pointing out.........I’d guess somewhere along the way Roseau committed an infraction or two or five that someone could point out and argue could have been called. A bit dicey to spend this much energy on one non call when your team wasn’t called for a single penalty in the entire ga...

I can’t disagree and had similar thoughts on that play live. Although I’d have to rewatch it to confirm there was actually contact to the head.

And the initial numbers I heard for viewership of the stream were crazy strong. Hats off to Roseau for a great battle and season. My guess is...

I’d suspect East will rebound to be back in...
