Not unless you are behind the wheel of a MnDOT plow!

I am usually pretty optimistic, but this is looking real bad. If I knew they wouldn't cancel, I would just leave a little early.

This should be a heck of a game....

I picked Grand Rapids to win section 7AA but i'm hoping cloquet takes this one. Why?

-It would be great to see Ellingson show his stuff in front of all of MN at the X.
-If TJ is back, him too.
-They have also been close so many times i think they're due.

Jensen hasn't really lived up to the hype this year so he will have to prove himself worthy. Too much pressure for him?

I'm going....

Lumberjacks- 5
Thunderhawks-2

Also, if TJ isn't ready to play, he shouldn't. It won't be his fault if Stejskal lines him up. If i were the GR coach, i would be sure to put the body on him and get him out of the game.

Go Lumberjacks!!!!!!!

Tomorrow is Wednesday. The game happens on Thursday, depending on the weather.

Now that I'm up to speed, I'm takin' Ellingson over Jensen :-k

Cloquet 2, Grand Rapids 1 in OT :shock:

Either teams represents Section 7AA well :!:

Good luck to both teams, too bad they don't have a back door ](*,)

That was my younger bro using my username like an idiot. Oh well, I got to MSP 6am Saturday and flew back Sunday night. My work schedule is really tight. Yes, that was me and GR19 leading the cheers.

Couldn't be. GR19 was too busy trying to figure out where the band was.

And congrats Syd, now you know what it feels like to be Slappy and post 8 times in a row. If you hadn't stopped when you did I woulda gotten really worried 'bout ya. :roll:

Tyler Johnson will have one or two more days to heal.

Jensen is too scetchy. He isn't very consistant. Yeah he's played good against Cloquet in the past but I have a feeling Cloquet's 1st and 2nd lines will come through this game. Along with Reid. I mean he IS the best senior goalie in the state...
