Is $13.00 the face value?

I'm looking forward to seeing a ROSEAU Finals against Edina. Both teams are obviously incredibly strong at both ends of the ice. But, Roseau IS the team with the superior netminder, without question. And, as most hockey observers will agree, the team with the hot goaltender is probably THE team to b...

lol. yueah thats betters...NOT going to happen, and SMALL CHANCE, are huge differences when it comes to sports...anything can happen! Technically, one of the "Lakeville Twins" could go to the Finals versus Edina (or Roseau or HM) and win 20-0. It's an extremely low probability of it happe...

Woodbury has been, at least from my perspective, a bit of a sleeper school. I'm a bit surprised to see them coming on as strong as they are.

They are certainly peaking at the right time...

There is a reason the games are played....is it likely..no, can it happen? absolutely Well, if it was impossible for the three seeds not to win, why play the games? So, yeah, you're right, it's not impossible. But, it is a very low order of probability that any of the top three seeds will lose. Is ...

Re: hmmm, lemme think

I can't remember the last time a team won by 5 or more. Oh wait, Roseau did it yesterday. :D The days of easy sleddin' are over for the Rams. Well, I think they will win the first round of the State tourney by five goals..but after that the sleddin' will be a bit rougher!! (no more than two or thre...

Re: post 10056

You wont have to buy standing room tickets for the A tourney. AA tickets go on sale at the xcel box office 1 hour before each session. The line sucks and you might not get a ticket. I suggest buying AA tickets for Friday and Saturday games off the street. Be prepared to pay an arm and a leg with sc...

What is the face value of lower bowl Class AA tickets?

I plan on buying scalped tix at the X.

Also, is it relatively easy getting tickets for the Semifinals and the Finals after the losing teams depart after the first round?

Thanks.

I'd bet even money that Roseau plays Edina in the championship game.

If Mike Lee is playing at the top of his game, then game over...Roseau wins. No question about it.

If Lee plays mediocre, then it's going to be a toss-up.

It all hinges on Lee (no pressure there!!)...

The game last night was great. Typical HS playoff hockey energy at Mariucci.

The Red Knights played with HEART all night long (despite a less than stellar second period).

Too bad that Tonka will not be at the Big Dance but B-SM deserves to be there.

No matter how you slice the seeding, Roseau and Edina will be in different brackets. There is no way any of the following is going to happen: #1: Roseau #2: XXX #3: XXX #4: Edina or #1: Edina #2: XXX #3: XXX #4: Roseau or #1: XXX #2: Edina #3: Roseau #4: XXX or #1: XXX #2: Roseau #3: Edina #4: XXX I...
