Yea, well its the best information available to go off of. The kid got flat out screwed - just like with the Elite League - not even an invite to tryout and compete - totally joke. Side note: As far as the goalies I am not saying Goor or Shepard didn't play well, which I am sure they did. But again...

Shots on goal on the hub show 45 for BSM and 20 for EP.....wondering if that was correct...? depends on which parent was taking the stats :roll: counts of shots on goal have been questionable in many EP games this year. I was at todays game and thought EPs goalie played a very nice game today but t...

hshockeyfan8 wrote:Great game. Played different style, Burnsville looked for good chances and capitalized on 2 breaks, where as Eden Prairie threw everything on net and crashed hard. Both goalies made some good saves

Appears that EP outshot Burnsville by about a 2:1 margin and ended up with a tie.

perhaps this will quiet hshockeyfan8 aka ForTheBoys31 from self promoting and fishing for compliments for awhile?

I am sure that Shepherd was beat after seeing 50+ shots the night before. Will be interesting to watch him as the season continues.

Section 6 will be much more even this year than in years past. Wayzata has 1 stong line and no proven goalie, BSM has a couple good players but no goalie, EP has some solid players and OK goalies, Tonka same as Wayzata, Holy Family Ok players good goalie. I think section 6 is up for grabs this year...

The 4 teams in the "Championship" brackets at Eagan were: 9:00am EP vs Holy Family 9:15am Prior Lake vs Eastview Saw the EP/HF match-up. EP was up 3-0 at half and The Family rallied back but fell short. 4 3 EP. If Holy Family could stay out of the box in the first half it would have been ...

BSM no problem
Tonka no problem
HF will win
Hopkins with the major upset.
Then BSM and Tonka win
Tonka takes down the Red Knights.

Why do you think that HF can beat EP?

Good question Superstar, another good questions is: How many AA schools have starting goalies that were varsity members of another team last year? That is a good point. Can't really blame them though, just trying to get the kid further in his hockey career. If he stayed at EP, he may not have gotte...

Metrohockeyfan wrote:Kniven (or anyone else who watched), who was in goal for both teams? and how did they look?

Gerdes for EP, and Strom for Cloquet. Both looked pretty good, from what I could tell.

Nice that EP let their back up goalie play on the trip up north.

Eden Prairie dominated most of the game. Shots were something like 41-25 for EP. Jefferson goalie played very well, and on top of that EP had several really good scoring chances and missed. On the other end a couple of lucky bounces ended up in Jefferson goals. I think the 3rd went in off an EP pla...

hockey4ever wrote:IMO key tonight was getting scoring from other than the top line, plus defensively EP did a great job in minimizing odd man rushes.

#1 Goalie had some nice saves for EP too.

First goal was a terrible turnover by EP that allowed a LN player to have a clear shot on goal from close in. Second I think was a PP goal and the shooter skated in from the point to have a clear shot. Don't remember third goal but last was off a 3 on 1. EP goalie made some big saves or the score c...

At about the 5 minute mark of the first period shots were 9-3 in favor of EP. At the end of 2 they were being out shot 23-19. I was shocked that the Eagles could play that poorly for that long. As previously mentioned it was one solo rush after another by guys trying to go coast to coast..I figured...

I agree with the comments on Eden Prairies student section. The only time I have ever been impressed by them is the state tournament. Occasionally at regular season games they have high attendance, but never seem to be loud. Schools need to take notes from Burnsville, IMOP the best student section ...

SECBLUES wrote:Hey Happy, do you think Eden Prairie thought it was funny when the final seconds ticked off the clock against Armstrong last march?

In Armstrongs eyes...that was a game to remember. Never under estimate how the puck may bounce.

Does anyone think Edina will not make it to state this year? It appears Burnsville and Prior Lake will give them run for it. I have always thought that Burnsville teams can surprise on any given night. I also have faith in Joe Pankratz and the work he has been doing in Prior Lake. Has it finally pa...

HappyHockeyFan wrote:Holy Family goalie Derek LaCombe was awesome, big reason they were still in the game after 2 periods.

Nice he was able to "get noticed" once he left EP. Great he found a place to play and can step up and make a difference.

Who do you think they missed?

EP against Benilde EP scores 2 early than BSM scores 5 in a row. Final 5-2 EP looked good but not the kind of speed BSM puts out there. I counted 4 for BSM? Either way I agree. If EP can tighten up the D a little bit it should be a very good game during the season. Why blame the D? so Snuggerud and...

Is Knudsen hurt too?

Apparently, EP's stellar goalie- LaCombe has transferred. EP has another up and coming goalie (Kielly) but it is a shame since LaCombe made a huge impact on the Eagles season last year. He made all the difference in the teams record; playing a majority of the games and against a majority of the toug...

We should see some low scoring games in the section tournament. Section 6 will also have some very good goaltenders, although not neccisarily young. BSM- Quale Tonka- Ciacco EP- LaCombe, Kielly Wayzata- Dingman EP = LaCombe, Kielly both top notch goalies and great team mates; leading EP BA to the s...
