Good seats. Please PM if interested.

Moorhead's played all their lines consistently through the tournament, and have had success doing this. They seem to be the fresher team as the game wears on. I haven't noticed EP wearing down at all though in any of their games, so I think Marks will have to make alot of saves in this one for them...

Hey, STXNPUSS, I was talking about the medal ceremony between this year and a few years ago. I missed the "absolutely intentional headshhot". But if you say it happened I'm sure it did. Nice......Someone makes a comment and you come out with 2 year old name calling. I know exactly what yo...

Good luck to the Spuds at state. You gotta root for whichever 8AA team gets down there. On another note, being a Roseau fan, I was very pleased to see how the team reacted at the medal ceremony - not throwing medals against the boards and the coaches stuck around til it was done. Little more class ...

I agree, but i don't think the sheep will score 3 on moorhead.

Taters 5 Sheep 1

Agreed. Not only will the lose the first game put the second game at State as well. It will make for an early trip back to the northwoods! Its going to be a disapointing tourney for the outstate teams as I see an All Metro championship in both Classes. I have to disagree with the suggestion that th...

This is great news. However with quotes like this: RECAP: The MSHSL board of directors took no action this morning. This was a special meeting, called to make decisions on ways to cut costs and save some of the ever-shrinking dollars for school districts. But decisions were put off at least until th...

LPH's Wally Shaver has an article this week on the reduction of games. Sounds like this is far from a done deal. http://www.letsplayhockey.com/977shaver.html I agree, however it still won't hurt to contact these individuals and let your voice be heard. The more people that openly express their opin...

Is this game at the Natl Hockey Center, the big ice in St Cloud? Was the last game at the MAC or NHC? Tech's home arena is the NHC so that would be my guess. EDIT And yes, this game is at the NHC. Supposed to be at NHC. Unless Oliver gets his way :twisted: Not sure how this works though as it is su...

moorhead can't afford to look past them. i think this game will be closer than expected. If tech plays good D.

This will probably be a closer game than most expect.

4-2 moorhead

Or you could look at it from this point. If the 3rd period was 17:00 minutes long instead of 17:40 then the penalty with :21 remaining would never have occured. Which means the 2nd penalty with :01 remaining would never have occured, which means it would have been 5 on 5 hockey for the O/T. If you ...

How sad, in our sport we pay for the fields to be built. We follow that by renting the fields we built by the hour for inflated prices. Does this happen in football, basketball or lacrosse? On top of that, we have our kids and parents go out and do fund raisers. A couple hundred dollar athletic fee...

I am not sure if this has already been discussed here but there is currently a motion underway at the MSHSL to possibly cut the HS Hockey schedule by up to 5 games due to on going budget cuts across the state. There has to be another way. 5 games is huge considering they only play a 24 game schedule...

Although people may complain that the spuds got two penalties in the last minute of the third, one of them actually saved the game for them because on one herbert was basically on a break away towards the goalie and had he not been hacked down i'm about 90 percent sure he would have buried it and n...

I believe eliteII was originally intended to be a developmental league to prep the younger players for the upcoming hs season. I don't believe that anyone ever intentionally tried to mislead players/parents or scouts that they were/are in anyway affiliated with the upper midwest elite league. From t...

That would be EP going two and thru last year after winning State, not Edina! I heard those two losses were there 3rd and 4th of the season. My Bad! :oops: You are absolutely correct! Sorry my apologies to EP I certainly didn't intentionally mix you up with Edina! But my point still stands. It is a...

I am not saying anything about this years EP team as i don't know them. I do know that last year everyone had Edina lock stock and barrell for this tourney after winning state and they showed up to the VFW tourney and were 2 and done. All i am saying is winning both tourneys back to back is very dif...

At the state tournament this year, two nice Edina women were sitting nearby, 'they questioned. why does everyone hate Edina so much?' I told her the simple truth, "We don't hate the city of Edina at all, just the people that live there." :D :D :lol: =D> \:D/ =P~ I am sure these are the sa...

Nothing is wrong with "pay for play",.....in fact the overwhelming majority of HS athletes (actually their parents) have been doing it since age 5 in youth sports. And it is what Brainerd will do. They will raise the money, or each pay their own way. If sports are dropped, the athletes wi...

I have to say it was the "NORTHERN PEOPLE" that wanted the playoffs the way they are now. Don't give the "CIDIOTS" that much credit we used to have a true double elim....think before speak or write The issue isn't the double elimination. The issue is the district rotations throu...

State Tourney Records Roseau 33-14-1 Eden Prairie 55-4-2 Duluth East 35-12-1 Wayzata 37-10-1 Edina 42-14-5 Moorhead 41-2-1 White Bear Lake 30-26-8 Centennial 27-26-3 moorheads record is a little misleading So there it is. Tell us how you really feel? Your sons team beat a team 2 months ago and that...

Why do youth players at the lower level "ice the puck" when short handed? It's because they are taught to do that. If the icing rule while on the penalty kill was changed, you would have some adjustment time for the players that have been taught to "ice the puck" rather then con...

Yes they are. The finals are in St. Cloud this year.

Looks like a freaking hot dog to me. Why would he enter the zone to then leave the zone just to make a big circle in the neutral zone to say, "look at me, I'm playing a pathetic team" finally go back in and walk around a cone for a defensemen. I've never seen Ness play, but after watching...
