Saw the last two periods

Seemed like Non Minnesotans dominated

Ryder had a couple good rushes which the scouts probably loved, But he also whiffed on a open net pass in the low slot

Pino had a few nice flashes

Was hard to watch Brinkman on his shifts, cameraman angles weren’t the best, but it was good HD quality stream

At game Wed night -
Not to be too 'dark' but well, call it as it is.

Maybe my expectations were too high for this tilt. Its an All-star game after all and apparently only 2 team practices then a game so first two periods were summed up by extremely choppy play w/ very little to no rhythm/flow...3rd period brought some flow finally and an entertaining ending was had by a late comeback. I would venture to guess under 4,000 in attendance??? Maybe Ridder is better idea? Course with the U's lack of real infrastructure its just too painful in Dinkytown.

Anyway, the MN boys were fun to see, but an overall soft showing as this game was all about the east coast kids most of whom are predictably headed to BU and BC. RD had some chances, per WestMetro reports, but no finishing touch. Brinkman was basically mistake free, but no flashes either...at all.
Didnt see that head tilt swagger Ive seen so many times last few years, but hey - at this event and BB's career moving forward? EVERYBODY is good. And can SKATE. AND has size too! So buckle up and best wishes BB! Silianoff, albeit a garbage goal, still managed to appear on a score sheet - he always finds a way...keeping Cakeland proud. Yet another crop of Edina kids that IF they had all stayed in Edina would be seniors on this '18-'19 team with Jensen, Silianoff and Brinkman. WOW! Size the rings, now folks!!!! But alas, if wishes were fishes - we'd all be in the ocean.

What else? Not much. Will throw some trolling commentary tmrw night/Sunday post North/SW elite tilt tmrw afternoon...maybe tick off Kniven and send him into some myopic, acid reflux infused rant?!?!?!? Thats the goal, anyway. Duder on, folks.
