EGF at Blaine
OK all you experts
Can EGF's defense keep Blaine's scoring total low?
Will my Alma Mater small town team be able to keep up and possibly win?
I will be there tonight and will post when I can.
Comments on the game?

What is a Green Wave anyway?

EGF at Blaine
Do you think Blaine will enter tonights game with an advantage or disadvantage after playing Anoka the night before? Tired legs or they just got warmed up?
EGF vs Blaine
Blaine wins. Blaine deep with scoring up front and solid in back.

But they really haven't played a tough team yet either.TTpuckster wrote:EGF is currenlty allowing just over 10 shots on goal PER GAMEalcloseshaver wrote:Blaine 7-4
I know Blaine is pretty good offensively, but, I cannot see them scoring 7.
I expect a very low scoring game that could go either way.
Not sure how to score it yet.

Or perhaps the 5 hour bus ride will effect EGF????DekeDangler wrote:Do you think Blaine will enter tonights game with an advantage or disadvantage after playing Anoka the night before? Tired legs or they just got warmed up?

That is true. Long bus ride, long day. Still should be a fun game to watch. [/b]

Well, Totino is not too bad, even though they lost last night to Delano.puckbreath wrote:But they really haven't played a tough team yet either.TTpuckster wrote:EGF is currenlty allowing just over 10 shots on goal PER GAMEalcloseshaver wrote:Blaine 7-4

EGF shut em out and allowed only 12 shots on goal.

Blaine played all of their kids last night V Anoka and will be rested. They come at you in waves with speed and skill. Goaltending is there issue. They might get 5-7 goals but give up 3-4. Not sure a non-private A school would have enough to beat the sheer numbers Blaine can throw at you and the dreaded bus ride...

Blaine takes too many penalties.

Competition is a fair question. But not as one sided as you might think, EGF played Totino and both Grand Forks Schools. They would be year in, year out, AA teams in Minnesota.
EGF's goalies have not really been tested. And while Blaine won't control the pace or tempo, EGF is extremely deep for a public A, school.
I think EGF can put up offense but they haven't had to and have put so much emphasis on D that it may benefit them to have to open it up. They might have the best Defensive corp in the state and unless they have a goalie melt down, even in a wide open game I don't see them giving up more than 4 goals.

I've watched a lot of ND high school hockey. Both the Fargo and GF schools.ted2you wrote:Competition is a fair question. But not as one sided as you might think, EGF played Totino and both Grand Forks Schools. They would be year in, year out, AA teams in Minnesota.

Even on their best year, they would not be a MN AA team.
MN hockey is a step above ND hockey, especially at the HS level.
