Section 2AA Final Seeding
Here is the final seeding for section 2AA:
1) Minnetonka
2) Holy Family Catholic
3) Prior Lake
4) Eden Prairie
5) Chaska
6) New Prague
7) Chanhassen
8 ) Shakopee
I would think Tonka would have preferred to play PL in the seminfinals (hard to beat a team 3x in one season). Thoughts?

A little surprised New Prague got the six seed - figured seventh at best. However, they have put on a decent showing this year, and have a tie against Hermantown to show for it. HFC has an easy path to the final. Minnetonka has to get by an improved Eden Prairie team over the last month, even though the record doesn’t show it.

Re: Section 2AA Final Seeding
yeah, EP vs Chaska & Cloquet vs DM are arguably the best QRF games this week.WarmUpTheBus wrote:EP over Chaska is far from a sure thing.tonkafan77 wrote:Here is the final seeding for section 2AA:

Re: Section 2AA Final Seeding
Definitely going to be some close 4/5 games throughout the state, but these two have by far the most talent and teams with upset potential in section semis and finals.hockey59 wrote:yeah, EP vs Chaska & Cloquet vs DM are arguably the best QRF games this week.WarmUpTheBus wrote:EP over Chaska is far from a sure thing.tonkafan77 wrote:Here is the final seeding for section 2AA:

Re: Ep loss
Streak over. At least Minnetonka won't have to get by an improving Eden Prairie team and have to beat them 3 times in a season.blueblood wrote:Section 6, not Section 2

The Eden Prairie Community Center was built in the early 80s (1982?), and there was no indoor sheet of ice in the city prior to EPCC being built that I’m aware of. If EP had a hockey team in the 70s, they were likely a co-op. Eden Prairie was a small farming village up until 1974. Interstate 494 going through the northeast side of town started the growth spurt.

Plus, the EPCC used to have the huge blue hockey skate & red figure skate painted on the wall. I don't think EP started getting good at hockey until the skates got removed & painted over...ryguyMN wrote:The Eden Prairie Community Center was built in the early 80s (1982?), and there was no indoor sheet of ice in the city prior to EPCC being built that I’m aware of.

You are correct on blue hockey skate and figure skate. EP did have their own hockey team prior to the original blue/red skate sweat box and Chaska did too. Don't know exact dates but around 1978 or 1979 is as far back as I can recall. GB

Also, I don't think Co-Ops existed in 70's and 80's. No one in their right mind would consider sharing a team with a rival. Your school either fielded their own team or they didn't have one. Wasn't until budget cuts and demographic changes that Co-ops started. Not to derail topic, but I am, can anyone think of a Co-op prior to 1985 1990? GB
Ha! Those were the days, pre-renovation! I believe there was also in big lettering on the wall "Skate Eden Prairie" or something to that effect. It was straight out of the 80s.Doc Holliday wrote:Plus, the EPCC used to have the huge blue hockey skate & red figure skate painted on the wall.

I kind of curious where each school played their games prior to their respective Community Centers being built. Chaska Community Center wasn't opened until 1989.GoldenBear wrote:You are correct on blue hockey skate and figure skate.
