Century played well today, but they wouldn't have been able to do it without Faupel #7 he is a sophomore with lots of potential. That is the best game he has played this year, luckily it was at the right time. He does not do that every game. Roseau, after seeing them play today, is playing the best hockey in the tournament and I think they will simply overwhelm Century as long as they hit the ice running and don't let RC catch them by surprise like HM did. Roseau's agressive offensive system and intensity is just too much for Ewing. Even in the last minutes of their game vs Woodbury today, they were playing like it was a tie game. In my opinion they played with the most heart today, and showed they wanted it. On top of it all, Roseau's tender is playing very well right now, and confident going into the semi's.
All Swedish, no Finish
I thought a couple of Panthers had their worst game of the season; Knutson and Wilcox to name a couple and still Century fought hard and won. The first two games featured text book examples of what happens when you don't backcheck or cover up out front. Woodbury's top line with #9 showed zero interest in playing defense and gave up at least 5 of Roseau's 7 goals. Roseau made some very pretty plays with their passing but when Woodbury continually loafed getting back and covering up they helped Roseau out a lot. H-M gave up 6 goals on 22 shots, Phillipi is overrated and after Faupel picked up his second goal I figured that H-M would put a body on him but they didn't and he ended up with 4 goals, add to that he missed a couple of point blank chances.
Century actually backchecks and Roseau plays solid out front and takes the body well. I bet it's a low scoring game with few shots....3-1 Roseau.

Rochester winning may be bad for Roseau. They seem to overlook teams sometimes (ex. 1st period of Woodbury game/ 1st period of Warroad game on FSN, etc.) anyway, they tend to play to the level of their opponent initially and then try to win the game later. If they could come out flying right away it would be lights out RC. They are gonna need that explosive energy right away, use their depth and just keep hammering away.
Roseau- 5
Century- 1
(sorry Roch. fans, but they have a hot goalie and three line of offense that is on fire!!!)
