It's interesting that several folks are observing how much better Edina played in the section final against Jefferson. Got me to thinking, and I went back and looked -- over the last 3 years at Mariucci, in three section finals (all against top 10 teams, including #1 Jefferson) and in 4 state tourna...

The 96-97 East team was an outstanding team -- I think somebody above is correct they were undefeated going into the final. They lost in the final 1-0 to an Edina team they had played the last game of the regular season and thoroughly outplayed in winning 5-2 (at Edina). Edina would not have beaten ...

Echoing Halla's post, great summary -- and also thanks for the weekly rankings and thoughts -- I've always enjoyed them.

Nice moment towards the end of the game. Giles set up the shifts so that the Everson/Gaarder/Lee went out for the final shift of the game with about a minute left. The Edina fans gave them a nice ovation. About 20 seconds later Everson put in his 4th goal. Sucks that Budish couldn't play his senior ...

East had a great year - nothing to hang their heads about. Outplayed CDH last night but ran into a hot goalie. Nanne is right that if Moorhead and CDH played last night like they are tonight, they would've lost.

This game has been brutal to watch. Sloppy, sloppy, sloppy. Did I say sloppy? Lou Nanne is about to have an aneurism watching these two gum each other into submission. Curses on Duluth East and Edina -- you're both responsible.

Everson had a hat trick. Also Lee, Taft and Van Voorhis.

Given that Budish didn't play a game this year, I don't think this Edina team qualifies as one of the "most talented" in MN history. Take the current Edina team, and add a 6'3" 225 lb, top 15 1st round NHL draft pick (Budish pre-injury), and yes, Edina would have been one of the more ...
