I'd be interested in the "pool" of candidates that you know of - please share. There were kids looking to leave prior to Friedli being hired - if he can keep a couple great, i'm sure he is reaching out to the ones he wants to keep (some i'm sure doesn't) - The CCHA bantams would have no e...

HF - New coach Zach Friedli - Former assistant coach and D coach at Chan HS and CCHA youth hockey coach. Really solid hire for HF. Thanks for the update! They return a lot of juniors and had a very strong JV. At least the cupboard isn't bare. Who says this is a solid hire? If what I’m hearing is co...

Outside of Hibbing looking at the youth I think Delano is your other best bet. Others in mix: Thief River Falls, Northfield, Northern Lakes, Monitcello looking at recent youth hockey results over the past 4 years. The game changer is that while those teams has all had success at the A youth level H...

Tweets from St. Cloud sports reporter Andy Rennecke: "After 3-4 days of state hockey, I’ve got to note how well Cathedral handles themselves in press conferences. Same for Warroad head coach and Northfield head coach and players. I wish I could say the same thing about Hermantown’s head coach....

I think what some people are saying is the rich are getting richer. We can agree or disagree but those that can and will recruit are going to have a huge advantage over the rest of the teams who can't or won't. But we all have to admit Minnesota HS hockey is in a transition from what used to be a z...

Believe that was Chan in their first game no?

If they win on Friday, does Hill Murray have a claim to the #3? Had one hiccup to Two Rivers; otherwise their losses in '24 have been to Tonka, Benilde & Edina. Also just smacked Maple Grove 2 weeks ago. Hill Murray a 3 seed…. Phew. AA pretty down this year after the big 3 in the Lake and Chan....

Go MPLS!!!

Who cares? The kid played football and wrestled (his brother too) at EP until this season. He’s already gotten his schollies so maybe they moved for legit reasons or maybe they’ve lived in Shakopee the entire time. Not saying I know the details, but if you play within the rules there’s not much tha...

Hmmm…. Hate the Hornets but gotta respect the hustle, coaching and how they just handle business. 5 state title’s for their young coach which is pretty amazing. Anyone else notice Hill’s captain #21 take her 2nd place medal off and throw it on the ice? I’m guessing a coach quickly told her to class ...

The penalty that resulted in the 4th Tonka goal on the PP was Charmin soft. The goalkeeper was yapping with the ref during the ensuing faceoff, then decided to take a frustration penalty late. Left early. I gave the “money” sign with both hands before leaving in disgust. There was a woman working t...

I should have stuck around EP/Tonka to ask the refs what the going rate was for a Tonka penalty. Talk about one sided. Maybe the lead scriptwriter knew, or left it to the refs to decide? Rarely gripe about the refs, but holy smokes from the opening puck drop it was really insane. The cross checks r...

There is so much in this post I don’t know where to start….

It's also the 2nd year in a row they've failed to make the section semis. Seeing their coaching staff, perhaps help is coming with Sylvia & some buddies. Sylvia has been around for a few years now while it’s Crowley’s first year. With both having kids moving into the HF system maybe they’re set...

Any chance HF could lure Noel Rahn back? Seems like that program has been in a tail spin since he left. I know him and the old AD didn’t see eye to eye. There’s no reason for him to come back. I thought he rode off into the sunset once his kid graduated. I don’t see any reason why he’d want to jump...

EP 6 HF 2

Expected a better game from HF, but EP was much more battle tested and dominated the entire game. Seems like HF’s game plan of trying to knock Moe out early backfired as EP got fired up and scored shortly after…

A few days late, but a valiant effort by the Eagles to battle back from 2 down late only to lose a minute into overtime to HF. HF pretty much dominated the puck all game, but the Eagles fought until the end. They lose a lot, mostly with Swanson graduating so they won’t have the same luxury next sea...

If you are interested to see how Duluth East responds after last night's 9-2 loss to Roseau, they travel to Rogers for a game that will stream free online at about 2:45 p.m. CT: https://www.youtube.com/live/eyxz5VAFTHM UPDATE: Rogers up 3-0 after first period. UPDATE: Rogers 8-0 with six minutes ru...

I am still curious to see how will Section 2 Seeds 3&4 shake out, and games like today may have an impact Shakopee -- 16-3-1, but a Charmin soft schedule. 3-3 likely in Section play, have 1 top 10 win in Rosemount EP -- 12-6-1 with the brutal Lake Conference tilt 2-2 likely in Section play have...

Don’t get me wrong, Edina definitely looked like the better team but that 5 minute major on EP was a killer. It was 1-1 and 3 minutes later was 5-1 Hornets after scoring 4 during the length of the penalty. It showed in the Wayzata game as well, but Edina is freakishly accurate on their shots. They s...

Serious question here. Is it really Goldsworthy recruiting or more the fact that Breakaway Academy is near by and run by Andy Brink (Who coaches at Minnetonka at the Peewee AA Level, Also the Bantam AA coach is a Breakaway employee). Seems like a nice little feeder system. I just wonder how much th...

Is STMA really that bad? How is this even possible? More things to note. Tonka puts up 61 shots, ripping 12 in one period and scoring on nearly 50% of shots. So, was the tendy just off? If so, you see 3 rostered yet only one played the entire game. Why no goalie change? Please don’t tell me it was s...

Edina putting on a clinic…. Nobody should want to play Edina right now. EP on Saturday I thought would be another good matchup but geez Giles has them clicking. Edina put on a clinic or was their goalie hot? Looks like they got outshout heavily, but maybe just a lot of shots and no good scoring opp...
