Huge matchup for Luverne tonight against SPA at home. Not sure how they will fair against them, will need good goalie play. Would love to hear some updates notTONIGHT!

How does that work with his verbal commitment to U? He cannot play for Tri-City then go to the U, correct?

That is correct, I believe. If he wants to play college hockey, he cannot play in the WHL.

After this year, it will be very interesting to see what Nelson and Smedsrud do. Besides those two, is there going to a major dropoff in talent, most of the other top dogs in the section, I believe, were seniors? Any input?

one of the worst defensive games I've seen in awhile. New Ulm's goalie played decent enough to win, Sleepy Eye's goalie I should say, Luverne's didn't. Very bad defensive effort from Luverne, hate to say it, but both of these teams would get absolutely smoked by Hermantown. Meyer was easily the best...

Luverne is indeed a team most people would love to cheer for..until you hear their fans talk and then you wish Saint Thomas was still in Class A to pound those ignorant people into the ground. No matter how annoying their fans are, I don't think anyone would want Saint Thomas in class A... Back in ...

Really though, where is Scout? Didn't even get any predictions from him today!

Yikes, that's a scary game for Luverne! For Luverne, they better hope Marshall doesn't have a hot tendy! Otherwise they could be in some trouble. My opinion is that Luverne will win 4-2. My prediction for Hutch and New Ulm is Hutch takes them down 5-4 in OT.

So you mean two upsets, LDC over Luverne, then win in the finals as well.

New Prague totally overwhelming Hutch 13-3 late in third. Not a good time for hutch to start playing bad... Heard Luverne got the win 4-2 over St Peter, definitely closer than I thought it'd be. Has Hutch had some injuries? They are very up and down, but it seems that all the teams in 3A have been....

I'm hearing reports the seeds are as follows: 1. Luverne 2. Hutch 3. New Ulm 4.Marshall 5. Litch 6. Willmar 7. Redwood 8. Windom havent heard the bottom end yet. If these are correct, could be a fun super Saturday at Gustavus! Great day for some hockey! I hope New Ulm gets by Willmar, New Ulm and H...

Finally gave in and saw Luverne play over at the Schwann's Cup, and was disappointed in their overall talent level to say the least. Ended up losing to Kennedy in the open division final. Few weeks later, watched as they fell to Johnson. Not that I don't believe in giving south west teams a chance ...

I think that the systems are being taught to Luverne correctly, I just don't think that the players are performing them correctly. That coach in Luverne knows what he is doing.

Thegoldenjet just unleashed another bombshell. So the Luverne Coach thinks it is respectful to put 20 goals on a struggling Worthington team but he emails Redwood they are disrespectful for trying to work on things in a game that actually might help in the long run?!?!?!?!? The guy really needs to ...

Luverne has dropped off the LPH rankings. What a surprise?..! They will not make the rankings again this year! So much for Luverne showing the nay Sayers! I'll say they have an 92% chance of winning out the rest of the regular season. Their record may get them in the top 20... Totino Grace losing 1...

It's amazing how quiet (and level headed) it is on here after a Luverne loss. I suppose it takes a while for the crow to digest. Luverne may run into some serious goalie problems in sections. Honestly though, I think Hutch is the only team offensively that can knock luverne off, and they may have a...

:roll: :lol: :roll: :lol: 1. Didnt say Anyone should stop shooting against the bottom feeders. 2. Didnt say it was a disgrace that Luverne players are leading the state in points. (others say it, not I) 3. I do think there is a point where you start to roll 4 lines in a game but that is neither her...

Will be interesting to see if the dragons can keep this one within five tonight?! 1A vs 3A will see if the dragons are for real?! Or if the Trojans will roll?! Has Litchfield always played new prague? Or did New Prague just join the Wright County Conference this year? Just curious. Years ago ,they ...

8-1. No sugar coating that. New Ulm got pumped. This section is all over the place. What's up with Marshall? Looks like they got throttled in the open division by some cupcake teams. One word for every team in this section. Inconsistent. Makes for a wild race to the finish Marshall got beat up in t...

Jaxson Nelson makes it 1-0 for Luverne early. NU comes back with a PP goal to tie it at 1. 3-1 Luverne after 1. All over the Eagles. 6-1 late in the second. NU taking penalties and Luverne making them pay. 8-1. Time is a-running. Maybe this is why Hutch, New Ulm, or Litchfield wouldn't drive to Luv...

Luverne is a top 25 single A team and #1 in 3A. (Kennedy is not a bad team, average A team.) Hutch is very capable to win the section. Litch and Marshall could upset someone. All the others, I hope they are having fun and enjoying the season I'd assume you forgot to mention New Ulm as someone capab...

3a hockey trout genius if Bloomington Kennedy is such a BAD hockey team why did they only get beat 3-2 by Delano? When your favorite Hutchinson Tigers get pounded by Delano 5-0? Where was the senior sniper in that one?? Maybe you ought to quit home schooling number 22 on the cards so he can come ba...

Still would like a good reason why they didn't move up? Makes ZERO sense to stay down. Why not challenge yourself. Who cares if you lose a few games? Not going to hurt the program by dropping a few, which t.hey probably wouldn't have anyways. Lost a lot of respect for these guys. The end result of ...
