Did Jr make it to the NHL? Or is he still coming through?

Re: Section 4AA

Can someone explain to me how Gentry, a publicly, funded charter school, can accept out of state players, and still play in the MSHSL Why are Minnesota taxpayers paying for out-of-state kids to attend a public school, just to play hockey. Its for the extensive Phy Ed program. Those kids come out sm...

Re: Games of the Night

I was telling some folks at a game the other day, this 8 team field in AA may be the deepest ever. It is entirely likely all 8 sections send someone with 5 or less losses. Anything can happen. Rankings have dumped HM down to like 7th for losing to Andover and Tonka. Except they had already beat both...

What app is it that I need to see a game in person? Vanco Events? Last time I went to a game we paid at the door.

Spar- how you doing in sunny California? Well, the wife told me I needed to come home for grandson's first birthday. So I will be watching the Pioneer ladies next week against Tonka in person and then probably see the boys play Benilde on Saturday. Everyone's invited. And Gentry has a nice record, ...

Re: Section 4AA

Big win for the Pioneers tonight, 5-2 over St Thomas. This was an important game for Hill to stop the bleeding, and is their best win of the season. I was wondering how they would bounce back from the loss to Two Rivers, and at least for one game they answered the call. We'll see if they can string...

Re: Games of the Night

How about that. Northfield beat Benilde. Congrats on the big win. BSM outshot them by a lot, but Northfield scores in the final 10 seconds to win. I don't see a loss on their schedule. This is the first I've seen that the MSHSL saw fit to separate Lakeville South and North into different sections. P...

I'm not smart enough to know the why. I do know that if 2/3 of your schedule is against average-ish conference teams every year, it's gonna be hard to fill out a really difficult schedule overall, as you're only left with a handful of games to do something with. If I recall correctly, too - WBL doe...

Hill just lost to two rivers. Hard to say, but any of HM, Gentry, Stillwater or WBL can win it. Feels like its a WBL year though.

What's up with these holiday tournaments? Specifically I'm talking about the various iterations of the Premier Holiday Classic* ?

Re: Games of the Night

Doesn't Minnetonka have a senior goaltender that is committed to the U? I know on the boys side, that was often synonymous with Mr. Hockey. Layla Hemp is who I was thinking, and it turns out she's a junior. So we'll keep her in mind for next year.

Re: Games of the Night

Well, Sparlimb, you were half right. Pioneers beat Andover 2-0 In Grace Zahn we trust. Sure is a great goalie. YHH had HM up after 1, 1-0 but shots 13-3 Andover. Holy Family outshot HM as well. That also can catch up to you as you're almost guaranteed a game where the goals just aren't going in. Bo...

Re: Games of the Night

A few thoughts from last night scores. For the record I didn't watch a single minute of any game. Centennial sneaks past wayzata 1-0. Not a good score for the Cougars. Wayzata has struggled. If Centennial wants to be in the big cat conversation they need to pound teams. This is not a score indicati...

Re: Games of the Night

Only two games of note tonight. Edina vs Lakeville North. Panthers are undefeated and Edina's scores are underwhelming. Doesn't matter. Edina wins 4-1 Moorhead vs Warroad- Moorhead is older, stronger and faster. If they can stay out of the box they win. If they don't they lose. Seems like solid pic...

Re: Top 10 Rankings

I see Lakeville North is 8-0 and has given up 5 goals in 8 games. They haven't played a killer schedule, but they are beating the teams in front of them. Kare 11 does have them as #9. A team to watch for sure. And Northfield is 9-0 as well. I was surprised when they beat Gentry first game of the sea...

Re: AA Rankings for 12/10/23

Hill's GAA is horrendous. Absolutely horrendous. New goalie, young team, we were .500 last year. Talent isn't quite what we expect, but I'm sure they'll be tough come sections. Wayzata is on fire right now, but season is young. If Hill can stay under 8 losses, I'll be happy. Should have already los...

Re: Top 10 Rankings

Saw a YHH tweet that Tonka has quite a few young'uns on the squad this year - I think it's 8 players in grades 7-9. Was that expected? Does that put them in 'rebuild' mode or are they going to try and ride 2 lines? So if Tonka is that young and HM has 5 9th graders (including their leading scorer t...

Re: Games of the Night

HM takes out Tonka 5-3 (at least that's what the hub says at the moment). I saw YHH said it was 4-3 after 2 and HM was leading in shots 22-20. These two do get to play again in the regular season and I'm flying in to see it (and a grandson's 1st bday to boot). Glad to see the Hill girls compete and ...
