Congrats Centennial

[AHAAlum]

I just got back to work after attending the game(love my job <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> ) and have to say congratulations on the win today. That was a well fought close game.<br><br>Despite earlier posts, I thought both goalies played well and each had some impressive stops. In particular, the Cent goalie's stop right on the left post from a cross-ice pass. I think most of us there initially thought that it had gone in.<br><br>Best of luck the rest of the way! <p></p><i></i>

Way to go Cougars!<br><br>I would have to disagree with the goaltending statement. Both teams limited the other team to a handful of opportunities ( Taylors shot hit the pipe not the goalie) Smith was flopping around like a fish out there but the AHA skaters prevented any shots while he was flopping. A very defensive game at one time in the third period shots were 13-11. The best thing is that there are all PUBLIC schools left now, so the winning team will be able to celebrate with their lifetime friends! <p></p><i></i>

I didn't get to watch the game due to school and all, but i just want to extend my congrats to Centennial. I'll cheer for anyone who puts H.A. out of the playoffs. Maybe i'm still just bitter about the season, but I find it sickening both the way private school kids play sports and how a deaf person would never be able to know when they score during the regular season. It's great to see that all private schools are out of the Xcel. And once again, congratulations to the Centennial players and coaches, and good luck. <p></p><i></i>

You know you people have got to change your attitude. This topic was to congratulate Centennial, not bash the school. Face it, the game was a great game and both teams played great. Someone has to win and someone has to lose. My hat is off to Centennial. <p></p><i></i>

Zamman, I have to say I m impressed by your respectfulness and class! Your in the same group as Hilltopper9 on here- I can't say enough about your team and haven't stopped telling people about how incredible that game was! Thats what State is all about, two teams playing a near perfect game, it was like a chess match out there!<br><br>Its sad that someone had to lose after all of us got to watch a masterpiece. Eventhough some have posted how it was boring- i beg to differ, i think its fair to say we were all on pins and needles- I personally want to say your AHA club is without a doubt one of the best teams I have seen all year and proved it yesterday.<br><br>Team speed and puck control was impressive and I havent seen anyone besides AHA and Moorhead skate with Cent- Good luck and congrats on an great game. <p></p><i></i>
