Last year was 50 years for Louie. Has anyone heard, is he in or out this year?

No defense. Heard they tried one of their top forwards at D against Coon Rapids. If they leave him there is could be interesting tonight vs. Blaine. While Blaine dealt with some bad bounces (and bad decisions), MG had some that should have hit twine too. Clearly a step in the right direction. Young...

Wayzata/Maple Grove Rematch 12/21/13 @ PIC

Former #1 Wayzata has been struggling and up & comer Maple Grove is getting their legs underneath them with the help of their new head coach and a bunch of new systems. This is again a home game for the Trojans, but so was the last one and that went to OT.

Who wins this one ?!?

Considering the returning talent and their years of experience under their coaches' systems, Wayzata is deservedly ranked #1. Having said that, Maple Grove has a ton of returning firepower offensively, defensively, and between the pipes. Put that together with an aggressive new coaching staff ... EA...

I'm sure the MG principal would accept on his behalf, but during the Basketball banquet since timing of these things is so important to her (firing him before Sections even start).

Portions of the Coach's quotes have been strategically used to fuel speculation... when in reality it is the rumors, his suspension, the unprecedented volume of player suspensions, and Administration's wavering knee jerk reactions - that have made this "by far his worst experience".

IMHO.......The reason they leave 1AA alone is because they hope that it will help build hockey interest in the communities with less thriving teams. If rochester kids continuously see STA for example go to state from their section and their beloved high school team never get anywhere, why the heck ...

Eagan wins 5-1 and plays Edina in the night cap on Thursday. :lol: Much as I'd love to see that, odds are slim that actually happens. For that to happen, 5 instances would have to proceed it; 1.) Hill Murray would have to win Section 4AA (roughly 90% chance that happens) 2.) BSM has to beat Wayzata...

Problem with this for Centennial (and Blaine) is that while MG has a top line, they get solid production three lines deep. Even 4 chips in their share. Next two games will be interesting for all three teams. Good luck to all.

Who's playing Edina in the 'Ship - MG or Wayzata?

Great first test for two young teams. Both teams graduated a lot of firepower. In Wayzata's case that means anyone that scored over 10 points last season. The thing these teams do have in common are large feeder programs from last year's Bantam ranks. This for sure, after facing off against each oth...

Z-thanks for the hockey history lesson. STA is an easy target.

Mandate the league make-up consists of 85% seniors and not more than 15% juniors (no sophomores allowed) and you can eliminate much of the stacking from a handful of teams. Also, if you coach at a HS program, no coaching/evaluating in or for the "Elite" league. Politics will always exists but if yo...

Re: Jaremko made it.

No Jake Jeremko or Mitch Reinke?? Jeremko was the best player on Section 7, made it to national camp last year... And Reinke is a very crafty defenseman. Other wise, pretty good job. I could swear Blue 8 is Jacob Jaremko.... http://assets.ngin.com/attachments/document/0027/1355/2012_Final_54_Roster...
