Historic MN Brick Team
All of these years of whining about sending the best MN team to the Brick, the best of MN comes together and there is no comment? Nothing? Blades and Orange combine. This is fantastic. Gotta believe if the people who put this team together have any clue, we should be prohibitive favorites. Bring it home boys!
Re: Historic MN Brick Team
Derek Plante is coaching the team. He wouldn't be the coach if he couldn't send the best 06's. He's a great guy to have in charge. Should be a great tourney for the Minnesota boys. Good luck!edgeless2 wrote:All of these years of whining about sending the best MN team to the Brick, the best of MN comes together and there is no comment? Nothing? Blades and Orange combine.

Re: Historic MN Brick Team
"Prohibitive favorites"..... ummmm no. Good team. Will compete and have a chance amongst the best teams but prohibitive favorite is Minnesota homerism and not reality. I think Winnipeg, Toronto Bulldogs and BC Jr Canucks all still have a big say in the matter.edgeless2 wrote:All of these years of whining about sending the best MN team to the Brick, the best of MN comes together and there is no comment?

Isn't it lovely when the adult writing the team profile is clueless(or an outright liar) take your pickJSR wrote:I see the British Columbia and Thunder Bay, ONT goalies are doing an awesome job of keeping the other teams from scoring .... apparently no goalies in the "state of hockey" this year....
All they needed to say was: this is our team
I guess I'm not following you? The two goalies on the team are from BC and ONT respectively and not from MN. That part is fact, I read that in Youth Hockey Hub article but also found both of them on their winter rosters online in their home cities which confirmed that because I thought it was odd and maybe a mistake, but it wasn't..... Not sure where the clueless or liar part comes in? Maybe I'm missing something out of context here though...nu2hockey wrote:Isn't it lovely when the adult writing the team profile is clueless(or an outright liar) take your pickJSR wrote:I see the British Columbia and Thunder Bay, ONT goalies are doing an awesome job of keeping the other teams from scoring .... apparently no goalies in the "state of hockey" this year....

On the Team profiles page for the tourney, TM Mn states they have gathered the best 9 and 10 yr olds from "within the boundaries of MN"......obviously falseJSR wrote:I guess I'm not following you?

It's not that a big of deal , whoever wrote the profile is either clueless about the roster or fabricated a lie. You can bet every kid on the Team and their parents read the profile yet it remains . It would have been fine to leave out the MN claim and I am glad they did well,
just I don't think "historic" applies
