Re: Eden Prairie -- Coop with Who?

Surprised someone hasn't tried to pin this on Cassano somehow.

Re: Tonka - New Prague

fwiw 13 different Tonka players scored at least 1 goal, 17 of 18 skaters that saw ice time had a point, and 15 of them had at least two points. Looking at their season stats Hochbaum had 4 point which were her first points for the entire season. Keepman had 2 points with only 2 points going into the...

Re: Biggest Section Upsets

The '86 Richfield over Edina upset was big, and it came on the heels of a nearly as big upset of a very good Tonka in the semis. The win over Edina was the semi, the win over Tonka was the section final. Damian Rhodes (goalie for Richfield, who had this idiosyncratic deal he'd do with this glove - ...

Re: Section Finals Streaming Info

No one might know the answer to this, but can someone stream MNHockey.TV from another country? I'm ok with some streams but there are some I cannot. Unfortunately I can't use my VPN because it's company provided and blocks anything sports related.

Perhaps their pair of 18-0 wins (or whatever the scores were) over Austin were too heavily weighted. :wink:

Re: The Minnetonka Machine, and where they came from

For what it's worth Tonka AA Bantams are currently ranked 4th, the PeeWee AA 1st and Squirt A is 10th. So unless those teams are also filled by ill gotten dirty transfers, Tonka teams in near future could return to being dominated by homegrown talent. Also FWIW, the Tonka JV team was 24-1-0 this se...

Re: The Minnetonka Machine, and where they came from

Minnetonka has by itself ruined high school hockey. Did you just don't-hate-the-playa-hate-the-game me? lol Yes, Slap. I read above from one posted about how HS hockey in Minnesota has been ruined. I see an awful lot of it and believe it is awesome. 2024 and the jig is up, a lot of the best kids pr...

Re: The Minnetonka Machine, and where they came from

As I mentioned above , I think Bauer and Schultz open enrolled in 9th grade at Tonka . Someone can double check. So if I'm counting right , That leaves only two kids , Lunski and Scheetz , who started at one high school and later transferred with eligibility somehow . Several ways to do that , assu...

Re: Games Thursday 2-1-24

The sections at least should offer some fireworks in 2 and 6. Despite their undefeated record, Tonka is clearly not unbeatable. Whether or not that's vs. Chan in sections or later Edina/Wayzata at state, the title this year is still very much up for grabs. What team beyond these 4 is most likely to ...

I think it's a solid choice as imho it pays homage as much to the region as Hastings alone including Red Wing. And if the idea is to grow hockey in communities as much as anything it surely can't hurt. It wasn't that long ago that Hastings produced some talent and I'd be happy to see an area like th...

Re: AA Rankings for 1/28/24

Edina and Wayzata are definitely good enough to win the whole thing and have already proven themselves against Minnetonka. Unless Tonka blitzes either in their 2nd match-ups that opinion won't change for me.

. It's a shame that a few of the sections house most of the top teams.

In the 80's there were some very lopsided scores between Hill and some of their City Conference opponents. The worst were against Central.
