watch ness, then watch leddy. I have seen allot of both and Ness just jumps right off the page. This kid is unreal, he has that quick wit and shifty movement that ovechkin has. IMO, This would be a better argument if it was Ness vs. Gardiner. In fairness to Leddy, he is an amazing player and I am so...

Linquist has a different coaching style. Against poor teams he plays full lines pulled up from JV. He also plays backup goalies frequently.

Centennial and Blaine are 2-1-1 against Edina and Duluth East, this leads me to believe that these two teams would be doing no better in the NWSC. Put any of the other top teams in the conference and you would likely have the same result. Having a team from this years toughest conference ranked no ...

Re: If Edina does not win it

Will it go down as big a disappointment as '05 Moorhead? Or maybe worse considering their last three quality seasons? I think Giles might expect some heat from the community nonetheless if they don't pull through. I think Giles deserves a little heat, however he did lose Budish. Sometimes these thi...

It's a very good list; having now seen most of the candidates I'd say Leddy or Mattson, but I'm no scout or anything. I'm obviously biased, but I'm a bit disappointed in the Brimsek choice. Isn't it a bit odd that they choose that before the season ends? Seeing how they hold up under the pressure o...

the new one, Leddy might not be first, some team might risk it with Budish or go with Mattson(possible, but unlikely). If they gave it to Budish, I'd be thrilled but would never hear the end of it because he hasn't played a game this year. Mattson nor Hanowski will not win it because they are going...

I'm affraid I don't quite understand all the hype about Jefferson. To date they have played 3 top 20 teams in EP who they beat 2-1, Wayzata who they beat 3-2 and Moorhead who the beat 4-3 in OT. They still have to play Eagan, that would make a total of 4 top 20 teams. They have not played, Edina, C...

It was indeed a fun game to watch. I thought the refs were real inconsistent with the penalty calls. They called a lot of them too. Jefferson had two 5 on 3s including through the end of reg into overtime. The last cross-checking was in a scrum in front of the net and basically gave BJ the game. (D...
