The Maple Grove game vs Andover, scheduled for Feb 25, has been moved to March 4th. The MSHSL only allows two games per week until the first week in March.

Anyone know if any other top 10 team only runs 2 lines? Rosemount runs 2 lines 75% of the time. Both loses were against teams that ran 4 lines against them. Rosemount did not look tired in the 3rd. They took it to Andover pretty good in the 3rd. Rosemount’s had much better scoring chances. Andover’...

The section uses QRF because Grand Rapids got "screwed" by the coaches in the 2017 vote. As much as people like to blame the southern coaches for using QRF, it was Rapids that initiated, lobbied for, and drove the change. And, as much as people may want it, there is no chance that there wi...

I am pretty sure it is a done deal for this season. I am curious whether they have agreed to use QRF beyond this year. It’s a 2 year agreement to use it. Hopefully they vote again on it end of next year, but seems like the southern coaches like it which would give 5-4 votes to use it. I'm don't thi...

Only 7AA is using it and it was voted on by the schools. East and Marshall were the only 2 schools to vote against using it. The thought was it would eliminate any posturing like having Rapids as the 4 seed last year. If it is continued to be used teams could look at who they schedule if section ga...

Going back nine years ... Andover beat Cloquet in 2008-09, 2009-10, 2011-12, 2012-13, 2013-14, and 2015-16. Cloquet won in 2010-11 and 2016-17. They tied in 2014-15. Do the playoff wins count? Cloquet is 2 and 0 vs Andover in playoffs. how about before 2009-2010 do those wins count? hardly makes Cl...

Very true. Not only is CEC class A, but also CEC gets very, very rarely gets transfers in to play for them. It would sure be nice to see the kids in purple have a good chance year in and out make it to state. Play AA in youth, but A in high school. Kids work extremely hard and every year, generally...

I'm saying that there are some logical reasons for leaving early if a kid is emotionally and mentally prepared for it. ... It's a trade-off. There's no "right" decision, just a decision. I think most high-end kids (and their parents) DO realize this. A growing number of kids/families are ...

In case you're not aware, we live in a hybridized capitalist economic marketplace where we sell our labor for monetary compensation. You're a first year grad student. You just got finished reading some Marxian Historian, Pete Garrison probably. You're gonna' be convinced of that until next month wh...

Elk River 2 Andover 5 Final Shots 28 16 ER Elks controlled play almost completely during even strength, but couldn't get them to go in. Very poor night for Berglove, allowing 5 goals over only 16 shots. The shots were 17-16 after two periods for Elk River but the score was 4-0 for Andover. Elk Rive...

Not that it affects your rankings Karl but Centennial beat Moorhead in overtime. They scored with something like ten seconds left.

Keep up the great work!!

After 2 periods. GR will start 3rd with a minute and a half of PP time.

I think that OTSN has gone away. They have been replaced by MN Hockey Center. Their streaming schedule was posted in last week's LPH. They are doing 48 games for now -- 11 featuring Edina and potentially 10 with BSM including the St Louis Park holiday tournament. The article says their website will ...

In one of the weirder schedules around, Wayzata will play 20% of their schedule by December 1st. Andover and Elk River both open their season against them while the Trojans will be playing their 4th and 5th games of the year.

funny under Priorities those are all criteria that families use to send their kids to BSM, Hill, etc...yet get lambasted by the hometown heroes when they make that decision People love to lambast them because they say their priorities are family, religion, and school but two years later they move t...

Nothing against either coach as I'm sure they are great coaches and great people. MSHSL stresses it's not about winning to the HS coaches but then time after time they give the coach of the year award to the coaches that have great success in the win lose catagory. The MSHSL doesn't give this award...

Interested to see what kind of shot totals are posted for Mr. Perry... There has been much speculation of the stats being padded at the home games this year... I would be curious to see just how good he really is... Too many eyes :shock: on this game to pad goalie or his kids stats. Wouldn't surpri...

This is just part of the "play for the youth association based where you go to school" discussion. The Sibley Generals will get to add kids that attend STA to their bantam teams. It will be a nice boost for the Sibley Bantam A and B1 teams and will make them more competitive than they've ...

I don't know why you keep putting down North Korea. We would be lucky to have Kim Jong-Il in on this debate. Don't you remember when he went golfing for the first time and made 11 holes in one? With the same kind of leadership in hockey he could turn a team full of benders into Stanley Cup champs in...

And that is what is headed for MN. Sure, several of the entrenched old timers are saying it isn't but it is. Back in the day you could get away with treating the parents and players like they do in association hockey, with the increased money, mobility and information those days are done. If this w...

Some results of the Wisconsin new budget process made the news this past week. One thing became apparent that shows how things can be corrupted. Under the existing Teacher’s Union bargaining agreement, the school districts had to buy medical insurance from the WEA Trust, a company created by the Te...
