not as good as previous wbl teams but have skill and cann move the puck, there a bit overrated because of the big name but deserve top20 spot

totally undeserved. They haven't beat anyone or had a good tourney yet. They dominated D2 in the past and have gotten dominated this year they will finish 4-5 in D2. Like I stated before, yeras of watching the HS choke has rubbed off on these guys.

they are decent. they have a few good players and a good goalie to back them up. they are aggressive and they can score. but if played against aggresively and use their own systems against them they can be beaten easily

have some pretty good players and can play with the top teams but dont always show up to play. i know they have beaten wayzata, centennial, woodbury and blaine. lost tight games to East and EP. definitely better than the a peewees two years ago...im guessin alot because of their coach Scott Hambly

does anyone now how they did against mv?

theman · Post by **theman** » Sat Dec 16, 2006 11:51 pm

they lost to moundsview 5-3 they were outplayed and out hit. basically dominated by mv. all goals on powerplay kept it close but not by much

Chuck here. ilikehockey777 and theman both have good points here. MV is playing well this year. Even after they suffered a big loss in losing captain Mark Alt to CDH Varisty, they still are playing some great hockey. I happened to catch their Stillwater and WBL games, and they looked good in both. They were playing physical and moving the puck very well. They got some big goals from lower-line guys like Sean Lee and John Osterbauer. But I think their goalie, Dylan Culver, doesn't get the attention he deserves. He was a bit shaky in his first few games, but after he finally got some (weak) competition in the recruiting of a backup goalie, he really stepped it up against Stillwater and WBL. Lastly, I think their coaches Rick Thomas and Tommy Delisle are great coaches who have really done these guys some good.
