Eden Prairie looks to stay undefeated as Rapids looks to come back from a heartbreak loss last night.

I have the lone Rapids vote so far. Just feel like this year is hard to predict (i.e. EGF beats Blaine then loses to Breck 6-rip) and can see another "WHAT, that makes no sense" result here.

After a huge effort from Rapids in last nights game..Big performance by Sheppard.It might be tough to come back the next night and do the same with Ep...EP is playing great. Big, Solid, Skilled team.

I see this one going EP's way 5-1

Sheppard is on a role and EP will have a let down after beating the Elks. GR with the upset.

Edina out shot GR 64-17. I would expect EP to do the same.
Good luck to Rapids but I will be very surprised if they can keep this one close.
EP 5-2

Grand Rapids is going to get destroyed in this game. 7-1 EP
DE could've "easily" won state the last 5 years.

5-1 now. You might be right.

GR looks decent when they do get in the offensive zone. Problem is, it doesn't happen too often. Their breakouts...yikes. The shorthanded goals obviously aren't helping.

They have some potential and Shepard might steal them a few games, but until their D can start moving the puck, they're going to have a lot of trouble against these deep teams that can forecheck them to death.

What would have been funny is if someone would have said GR could have EASILY won the game tonight. :P

Well, end score was 7-4 EP.... So I was half right 8)

Rapids was clearly outplayed and Shepard just couldn't save this one for them. Rapids I'm guessing will probably go home after this tourney without a win.
