Holy Family hockey

[dank01]

After the split between the two fell throught, how do you think the team is going to be this year? Are they going to stand up to Orono, mound and cathedral? I have heard they have 3 very solid lines and a 4th line that can hold its own. For the D I havent heard much but Earls and shaw

A decently seasoned team it looks like. I dont know about the freshmen goalie...?

Freshman goalie is very skilled technically, moves well for a tall kid still growing, has the right demeanor ....should be a solid contributor but as with any freshman playing at this level, he will probably have his periods of inconsistency. Very normal

[countryboy]

tomass, do you follow this holy family team? are you related to any of them? Ihear they were up north and was looking for some feed back of the level of play up there vs where holy family is?

Great friend coaches the team.....I have no horse in the race on the team. The team was pleased with their scrimmages and their performance except for one game.

I don't know how they did in their scrimmage versus Chaska the other day since the JV teams were at a different rink. I have to say their Jv team had some impressive players for that level so I would expect Varsity is going to be very solid.

Goalie I have seen first hand - He will be a good addition for this season

Hey when's your guys' first game?

[hockeyfan002]

i believe they play farmington on tuesday. not sure if its their first or not though.

[fivehole628]

Where at? And what time??

[Goldy Gopher]

Where at? And what time??

It's at Farmington and I would assume it starts at 7.

[hockeyfan002]

holy family looked decent tonight but my goodness did farmington surprise me. holy family outshot them 14-5 in the first period and led 2-1 but after that it was all farmington. final shots ended up like 31-27 for farmington and they won 7-3. that schluessler kid for farmington was damn good. 4 goals 2 assists for the kid.

Farmington is an "up and comer", and definitely out of Holy Family's league, IMO.
Did you enjoy the obnoxious Farmington cheering section? (a pack of overzealous mothers. Hi Mom! Glad you made it! )

[fivehole628]

Sounds like H.F. had a tough time against them Farm boys

[hockeyfan002]

i was quite surprised really. farmington was flat in the first and than got 3 in the first 3 minutes of the second period and forced HF to take their timeout. those 'farm boys' sure do attract a lot of fans

[fivehole628]

Howd Laprade look? I mean for his first time and all...

[hockeyfan002]

sorry i'm terrible with names on the teams i dont know much about but im guessing you are talking about holy family's goalie? if so i didnt think he was anything special. especially on the first goal for farmington schluessler made one move and the goalie got all tangled up. 7 goals on 31 shots too. granted farmingtons powerplay was impressive and they went 3/5 i was not all that impressed by him.

A freshman goalie now playing at a higher speed of play will have a period of adjustment and that age will also produce inconsistent play and his confidence will be on a roller coaster ride the whole year.....he will be fine.

[hockeyfan002]

i agree. he's got a great build for a goalie.

[fivehole628]

Idk... that o.t. goal he gave up tonight was pretty ugly...

[hockeyfan002]

did he look bad tonight? who did they play and what was the score if you dont mind me asking

[fivehole628]

He let in 2 goals on 13 or so shots. Including a shot from beyond the blue line that bounced off his shoulder and trickled in, in o.t. They lost 2-1 to Providence in o.t.
Shots:
H.F.: 33-34?
Providence: 13-14?

Wasnt the greatest performance if you ask me

[gopherhockey06]

2-1 OT fluke goal at end.......i have no clue how it went in it looked like it hit and broke the goalies shild thing and rolled down his back into the net----ive never seen a goal like that before the shots were around 30-18 HF but they couldnt score

[hockeyfan002]

man that really stinks. to out play them so bad and lose yet another. they could have used a win after that butt kickin on tuesday. how did that top line for HF do? they impressed me tuesday night.

[fivehole628]

I'm not sure, I know Earls had their only goal.

[hockeyfan002]

oh nice. that kid is a monster with a rocket shot.
