Bring back Corbet and Goeff and the Pony's have a shot. With out them, they have only one strong defense (14) and nobody to put the puck in the net. Only like 13 or 14 shots against MV. Cates gives them a chance but that is the only chance for the Pony's. I say Cretin (opps) I mean Hill wins, 3-1
I do not see Stillwater getting past Hill...they just are not deep enough. Cates can be a game changer but Hill's depth will be too much. It will be another groundhog day as Stillwater gets beat by Hill again. Go Govs!
Stillwater's offense is pretty piss poor. They have had problems putting up goals all season. I see them scoring no more than a goal or two, but with a goalie like Blake Cates i think anything can happen.

For us not in the know...what is the " old handshake line tactics" ?
Supposedly, a couple of years back, Housley allegedly dropped an f-bomb at a Hill player who had played his youth hockey in Stillwater. He also supposedly told the kid "you have no class", which might be one of the most ironic comments ever, given the setting.
I heard the same about how good Hill girls were until Roseville beat them either team could win this game specically in sections first goal sets the game
I find it intriguing that probably one of the best, if not the best, American born NHL players can't get kids to stay and play in Stillwater. What am I missing?
CONSPIRACY THEORY - Stillwater closed school today to get the team extra rest. The fans are getting organized and will be all amped up. All of this while the kids at Hill are working hard on their studies. It will be a great game with low scoring. Stillwater upsets Hill 2-1.

I think this favors hill if Stillwater is closed. The hill boys will have had structure all day and been active, while the stillwater boys might be laying around all day and have to get up for the game. I give the nod to hill 5-1
