-Northern Lakes

Also hearing of a major change in a West Metro school as well that is sort of surprising.
A topic for this is already on here.

Re: Xcel Energy Center: longest host site

No wonder Craig Leopold says he needs $200M of your money to keep this old dump from falling in. Edit: Mariucci is a close second to the Fuse Box. Also, the Targ was used at least one year for the idiotic Tier 2 tournament. Target Center for the Tier Tournaments was only used for consolation games....

Re: AA SF Game- #2 Stillwater vs #3 St. Thomas Academy

Conway is an amazingly talented goaltender. My only problem is that he shouldn't be playing. He, and/or his parents, cheated and got caught. How he suddenly becomes eligiible for the post-season is one of those mystifying decisions which the MSHSL is famous for. That being said, Stillwater is playi...

Re: 1977 State Final - Is there a full game video?

Small correction: SOG were 39 Edina E to 14 Rochester JM according to the Star Trib write-up. For reference, in the "Miracle on Ice" game the shots were USSR 39 USA 16. Also, Edina did get a measure of revenge two years later in beating Rochester JM 4-3 for the 1979 State Title. Edina's r...

Re: The good old days

Great thread! I used to drive up from Rochester for as many great sectional games as possible. The Coliseum was often packed, certainly not ideal but a great atmosphere. Nothing ever topped the full Met Center for sectional finals for me. That place had the best sightlines for hockey. I know they u...

2-0 STA on sn ENG. Right now, it wouldn't shock me if White Bear gets knocked out in the section quarterfinals. Bears are in dire need of scoring and can’t seem to find it with any consistency.

Re: Stillwater forfeits

What is the back story on Conway? Why’d he leave Andover for Stillwater? What transfer eligibility rules did he violate in his “move” to the Stillwater district, and what did he do to right the wrong and get ruled eligible? I agree that having to sit out 18-19 games because he was found ineligible ...

After 1st. Pretty good dust up with 1.7 seconds left.
8 players in the box. 4 a side.
Is there any video of this game?

Re: GAMES SATURDAY 1-25-25

Stillwater came out flat for the first ten minutes, and they paid dearly for that. They are a very nice team, they're speedy and they can move the puck. They took a lot of shots. Keeping them scoreless for the roughly 2:30 at the end with 6 skaters was an accomplishment. If that were a section game...

That's what you think.

In my opinion (and probably many others agree), the State Tournament was ruined went it went to two classes.

There was a time when 7 & 8 left good teams behind. This year 8 will leave a good team behind and 7 is hard pressed to send a good team. Things change except it is still the best tourney around. And single A should be good. If Grand Rapids ends up winning Section 7, that isn't 'hard pressed to ...
