Semi-Final: Hill-Murray vs. Moorhead 3/9 6PM

Post by sachishi4 »

HM took the first game 6-1 at the end of the regular season, but Bitzer looked great in the QFs.

Should be a great game

Bitzer is really solid and I would like to see the Spuds get to the final, but I just don't see that happening.

HM - 3
MHD - 1

Hill will roll in this one. They will have Bitzer figured out. Lechner won't allow them to lose. Hill onto the finals.

Hill and Moorhead- the more things change- the more they stay the same.
2 great wins for both teams.
I will go with the Spuds 2-1 in OT.

I never go against orange and black. :)

The winner of this game is going to give somebody fits on Saturday.

HM looked great vs MG. I think they'll put a few past Bitzer to win, of course I thought Eagan would do the same and we saw how that went... But if HM plays the same way they did today I think they will win. Some of their goals were great team plays.

Bitzer gives the Spuds a great chance in this one, but if Hill brings the same level of play that they brought today, the Pioneers will bring home the win.

Hill will kill moorhead's will early. They won 6-0 about 2 weeks ago but that will mark no further indication of what the score will be tomorrow. I mean comon its the tourney. Hill in a 3-2 overtime thrill!

Not trying to nitpick here.

That HM, Moorhead game was a 6-1 final.

There is nothing I would like more than to see Hill get smoked, but it won't happen. Lechner is second to none when it's playoff time.

Hill 4
Moorhead 2

Should be a great game with battle tested head coaches.

They played last year outside in the slop.

I believe the score was 6-1 with 2 empty net goals....with 42 minutes of combined penalty minutes? If the Hub stats are correct Spuds went 0-3 and Hill was 1-4 on power plays. I dont see these teams doing this when the game counts both coaches and teams are better than this.
And the Spuds did not play well in this game, so I will take the Spuds 3-1 over Hill.
Bitzer MVP.

Spuds strike first on a pair of tips on a blast from the point.

That's two big goals from the Moorhead 3rd line this tourney. Combine balanced production with great goaltending and you're in great shape in a tournament like this.

That was a beautiful check. Absolutely textbook hit from the Hill-Murray D-man

Good to see Herdt back out on the ice after that hit he took in the first.

Definitely the most physical game of the tourney so far.

Bitzer comes up huge twice in the final minute of the 2nd period.

No doubt Bitzer is keeping the Spuds in this game thus far.

Seriously is it just me or is the only Hockey phrase this announcer knows is "Head Man Pass, Head Man Pass, etc. :roll:

Great game so far and it's going to be a great third period!!!

Go Spuds…
