Re: St. Thomas Academy vs Edina

I know that it's easy to blame the refs, but they do have a difficult job. I guarantee all of you that you would not be able to do the job they do in this situation. With that in mind, it has been really inconsistent and frustrating. There were a few hits in this game that would have been penalties...

Re: AA QF: #5 Duluth East vs. #4 St. Thomas Academy

It was a good game by both teams. STA just buried their chances while DE hit a couple of solid pipes. Early on, I couldn't believe all the high hits by DE. Seemed like they were head hunting and finished every check with a hand/arm/elbow to the head. Good thing they settled down, otherwise this wou...

Re: AA QF: #5 Duluth East vs. #4 St. Thomas Academy

Hell of a game to watch. Aside from some soft calls on both sides the speed and physicality was evident. Most physical game all day if not all tournament. Personally wish the hounds would have moved on but excited to see STA move on for the first time. Not sure who I'm rooting for tomorrow, probably...

Re: AA QF: #5 Duluth East vs. #4 St. Thomas Academy

But delaying the game so a replaceable player can fix his equipment? You have a backup and that was not a quick fix. They just got a power play goal on that weak cross checking call where the replay showed the two players were doing the exact same thing, so its probably even at this point I do agre...

I dont get how the star goalie was allowed to relace his skate with no penalty. You all were talking about fair reffing? Wow. It's a joke.

Re: AA QF: Lakeville South vs. #3 Eden Prairie

From what I caught due to our glitch, good period back and forth. Tired legs leads to lack of back checking and defense. EPs pp was justified, and no call was good imo. 28 down, 8 on the clock.

Re: AA QF: Lakeville South vs. #3 Eden Prairie

Great 3rd period. High flying with lots of open play. I think LS wins here. They have the momentum imo. They were rolling going into the last minute of play and EP got rowdy nut LS got through it. Take a breather, recoup and come out and burry one right away.

Re: AA QF: Lakeville South vs. #3 Eden Prairie

The second period was very different from the first. It was a very fast open playing 17 minutes. LS had more possesion and the EP penalty, which was a bit on the soft side but still a legit penalty was interesting. EP won the kill by not allowing a lot of shots and getting some themselves, but that ...

They have had some good chances out front but it's just not bouncing their way and missing sticks by a hair.

Regardless I agree. They need to get more than 2-3 shots a period if they want to have a chance.

Re: AA QF: Lakeville South vs. #3 Eden Prairie

That was an interesting first period. 2-0 EP but the second goal came fairly late in the period. EP had far more puck possesion but LS was doing a decent job of breaking up the rush and getting the puck out of the zone. Both goals were very nice and quick plays so if LS can disrupt the rush and zone...

Just an idea. . .focus on your D1 team, or satisfy your man crush and go coach Greenway. What purpose does it serve a D1 coach to go on a rambling dissertation about a below average HS hockey team? Hey Goldy, #1 it's his alma mater. #2 if you don't like A hockey, don't go the the boards to discuss ...

5-2 Final EGF Shots 43-21 EGF Man parts of this game were not a 5-2 loss, and then others were far one-sided for EGF. There were numerous big hits by EGF and MR seemed to be a bit afraid of finishing checks although I did see 1 or 2. Tanner Mack had an amazing snipe from the top of the slot. Minneso...

Re: Duluth East at Andover, Section 7AA Final

I heard it. Didn't call in. But I agree that home ice may not be much of an advantage. Just ask the Hibbing players who lost in the section final in 1981, 1988, 1997 and 1999. All at the Hibbing Memorial Building. That’s not the point. The argument is the Section Final in 7AA should be played at a ...

I do not want to take anything away from Frits or Glock, but I think it is Boynton's this year. If we look at this as a lifetime achievement, like the YHH podcast team keeps iterating, BB took an 8-14-3 CP team to 17-5-0 with not a whole lot of help defensively. If it's a lifetime achievement award...

Those of you that are applauding Pagestat for getting the seedings right need to take a step back and look at the big picture. It’s pretty much unanimous here that the seedings make no sense, yet they match Pagestat. That tells you pretty much everything you need to know about Pagestat. Would peopl...

Sounds like the QRF. That ranking system should be banned from the entire MSHL forever. How so? In what way does QRF promote losing in order to get down to a weaker half of the rankings in order to not play the best teams? It means sandbagging in terms of playing a weak schedule. Forest Lake was an...

I think the TV timeouts are key for Greenway. That was how they kept Troumbly Rajala and Lawson rested. Lots of whistles are their friend this weekend.
