Great work on the Updates!

TR wins but Park covers, Vegas line was TR -3.5.

Park Rapids needs to pick it up if they can only generate nine shots on net. Was that Park's first section loss though?

It was their first section loss, the way I see it they are battling for the 5th seed. They probably can't do any better than that.

[mnwild18]

I think the seedings will be something along the lines of...
1. Warroad
2. Thief River Falls
3. East Grand Forks
4. Detroit Lakes
5. Park Rapids
6. Crookston
7. Baudette
8. Kittson Central
9. Red Lake Falls
10. Bagley-Fosston

What a sloppy game for PR...TRF made some nice shots...no one really stood out that game...PR was not playing good and TRF just didnt look like they could....the only player i saw on the roster that stood out was Park's freshman Defense McMorrow....hes a pretty good player and at 6'1

[Warrior18]

That is impressive. TRF only allowed 9 shots. Good win for TRF.

Completely agree, he has a bright future if he works hard the next couple years. Very good kid also. His dad was my high school coach.

[SB24]

He did look good especially for a 9th grader. He was the only D on the ice who was even trying to make a pass. The rest off the team was just flipping it all over the place.

Should prob move to a school that knows how to play hockey. Most off the players on that team don’t look like they have ever been coached in there lives

I think there was a little home cookin on the scoreboard shots, but it wasn't too far off. PR couldn't generate anything offensivly. Lehrke was almost non-exsistant, TRF had Benedict on the ice every time Lerhrke was. Not the same game i have seen from Lehrke two times earlier this year.

TRF just played very solid, dumped, chased, controlled play, Smith from PR let in a couple weak ones, and PR's forwards looked slow and sluggish all night. 18 and 20 played real well for Park, Horien had a good game, and 1st d-pair for TRF shut Lehrke and his line down.
