Correct me if I'm wrong but EGF lost their 3 top point leaders - 1 to Shattuck and 2 for BE.

ZamMan91 -Sorry if my post was confusing. I was referring to Mounds View, not Blaine.ZamMan91 wrote:Goalie Dad. I'm a little confused by your make up of Blaine's top lines last season. The two times my daughter's team played them last year their top line was the Swanstrom twins and Kirsten Falk. They were all seniors who are now all playing D-1 hockey. There's no doubt that they are a deep talented team but don't see them ranked that high after losing all that offensive output.Goalie-Dad wrote:Answer to your question is nope. Sutton is gone. However last year's top line for much of the year was 2 sophomores and a freshman. The second line was mostly all sophomores. Sutton's defense partner was a sophomore. Point is that the have lots of fast and experienced kids coming up. Probably not a top ten, but close.Lace'emUp wrote: Blaine moves up from #12 to #5 after they graduated their top 4 players who produced 87 goals (and 178 points) last year? Yet, Mounds View's top 4 only loses Sutton to graduation, and that core scored 60 goals (136 points). Interesting that Blaine moves up, but MV drops out from #11. Did MV lose Brodt, Thompson, or Unterseher to the privates? If not, what am I missing here?
Old Goalie-you heading up to Duluth for scrimmage? Curious to hear how the team did.old goalie85 wrote:Forest Lake heading north for scrims @ Duluth.
Sadly, for EGF, this is true...with those 3 they should have made another strong run at state. Without them...they're still a very good team, just not as deep.Nevertoomuchhockey wrote:Correct me if I'm wrong but EGF lost their 3 top point leaders - 1 to Shattuck and 2 for BE.
Looks more like a regular season with that many teams?pucktech wrote:Looks like a good scrimmage weekend planned up in Duluth with some good competition:
Centenial, White Bear Lake, Forest Lake, Maple Grove, Chaska/Chanhassen, Eagan, BSM, Park Cottage Grove, Duluth, Rochester Century, SPU and Hill Murray.
They had three penalty shot goals in one half? That's highly unusual, right?? Rarely see one penalty shot let alone three.old goalie85 wrote:Rocket-The wife and grandma went.

NTMH - clearly you're new to the scrimmage format on weekend one. It's ok, not the first time you've been ignorant.Nevertoomuchhockey wrote:They had three penalty shot goals in one half?

And Centennial beats HM? Don't think I would have picked that. Good for them.
Any other scores? Were the jv teams up there or just varsity?
Well that escalated quickly.LZ94 wrote:NTMH - clearly you're new to the scrimmage format on weekend one.

They give a penalty shot with a chase situation in these scrimmages.
Send me a DM if you need more clarification, I'd understand if you don't want to look silly.
You're welcome.
The first time I saw penalty shots like that was 3 on 3 where it is used in place of the penalty box. Since then I've seen it used at a couple of scrimmages, but not many. For scrimmages there is no consistency. At the scrimmages held in Eden Prairie on Saturday (EP, Wayzata, CDH, Lakeville S, Armstrong/Cooper) penalties resulted in a faceoff in the offending party's d-zone. Year's prior teams played shorthanded at the discretion of the coaches, taking turns working on power play and penalty kill. It's not like anyone thinks the scores of these games matter.Nevertoomuchhockey wrote:Well that escalated quickly.LZ94 wrote:NTMH - clearly you're new to the scrimmage format on weekend one.

My daughter is in 6th grade. My son has never played in a format like that. Feel free to call me ignorant - just because I haven't been around the girls high school game as much as you? OK. I'm "welcome"? That's laughable. Oh, and I look silly because I asked a question to which I'm surely not the only one who didn't know the answer. Yes, bring on the condescension and disdain.
The only thing that's embarrassing about this exchange is your pathetic elitism.
Having done this for the past 5+(?) years, I am ready to pass the baton! If there are any volunteers out there who would be willing to take this on, send me a PM and I'd be happy to help get you started....nu2hockey wrote:Now that rosters are being finalized and games starting...will we have BIG GAMES AND PREDICTIONS thread starting up.
Hope so , it makes the season even that more entertaining
