Hibbing @ International Falls 12/9

Post by RangeHockeyFan1817 » Thu Dec 08, 2011 8:19 pm

Should be interesting, I falls won the scrimmage at the Jamboree, and although it wasn't a full game, the Falls looked to be the better team that night. Lets hear your thoughts!

5-3 Hibbing. Blue Jackets start to get on track.

Falls is looking good early this season. Hibbing needs to get a big win this game. Both teams have impressive first lines so far, watch out for Anderson and Johnson on Hibbing and Debenedet and Meyer on the falls. I'm going with 4-3 falls.

I'm not going to make any predictions on this one. Bronco Arena is a tough place to play in. With a large vocal Bronco crowd and ealpouts sliding across the rink it can be intimidating for inexperirenced players. Roseau is another tough place to play at more so because of the refs. Its still early in the season and I think these next two games could go either way.

So the refs make more of a difference than the quality teams they pit on the ice years after year?
It is what it is!

Falls led 1-0 after 1. (Didn't hear who scored it)

Hibbing's Adam Johnson tied it in the 2nd.

Game is tied after 2 periods at 1-1.

Shots 16-12 in favor of Hibbing.

Hibbing wins it 4-2 with an empty netter.

Good back and forth game. Falls had a couple chances to tie it late and didn't cash in. Johnson with 2 goals and an assist for Hibbing.

Hibbing needed that one, team has to build some momentum if they want to go to state again. It's early, but if you're a good team, you can't lose to teams like Mound. I-Falls is better than I thought they would be and they could pull a huge upset or two in the playoffs. Marshall had a hell of a time getting by I-Falls last year, hopefully they can knock off the Toppers this year. :D
