Why not give the Falls a little more consideration? If nothing alse, I'm willing to bet it will worth more than the price of admission to watch this game and worth the prognostication that should accompany such a game.
Agreed. I Falls is going to be a gut check for both teams. Wish I could see it.

youso is either gonna win this game for his team or ness will contain him and they will whoop International falls...
The Falls has alot more than Youso and the Rams have alot more than Ness. The Roseau Team better bring their "A+ Game" or Mike Lee will have earned his first defeat to the Bronco Team.

Looking at their schedule (okay, no soft schedule ideas here guys)...
I Falls has won many close games, that experience and riding a hot goalie at home could be the ingredients for the upset :?:
I saw them play in Rochester over the holidays, very good skating club and sound defense, and I like the Youso kid too.
Of the remaining teams, GR, Section 8, before a possible State appearance, I Falls has the team with the best chance to upset Roseau...

Do I think it will happen, No :wink:

None of teams have a chance... I cant wait for Roseau to show the cities what a small town hockey team can do. I think that they will have a perfect season after seeing how badly they beat Moorehead to enter the state tourny.

when are you cidiots going to get it through your thick skulls that your weak teams don't stand a chance against northern powerhouses such as roseau.

Once again; the Rams are a top 5 team. They are not dominant.

So, they have a weakness. No one has taken advantage of it yet, and it might not happen. To beat the Rams, a team will have to play very well. 2nd, they must not have any breakdowns themselves, as the Rams are opportunistic!

Why is it so hard for people just to realize they have a perfect seaon right now and they obviously did something right, instead of trying to say they will bomb it state...There is only one team as of right now that i pick to win it all and thats Roseau...and no i not from roseau!!

the reason? ill give it to you straight up. cidiots live in a little metro bubble that makes them believe if your from edina,tonka,hill,eden pr,wbl,ect.. your something special and if you havent been playing and beating these teams all year your not very good. so yet again (im really not sure how many times its gona take) roseau gets zero respect and has to go down to state to prove something. thank god edina didnt choke out last night or that chance would be totally gone by their small pea size brains that have maybe a quarter ounce of hockey knowledge. its not all people from the metro its just the majority of the metro. on this board its nutron,packer girl,govs to name a few that just like to piss people off. people that know the game can see the real deal its that simple. roseau knows what waits for them at state (very good hockey teams) we also know the teams on out schedule dont roll over and play dead when you play them either.

I believe Roseau is the best team in the state this year. Undefeated is Undefeated, whether the schedule is soft or not. Defending State Champ is another issue to plug in here... But...

If someone is going to beat Roseau, it will happen in the semis or finals, and the two teams that have a chance and I think are the real deal this year are Benilde & Edina... A loss to BSM or Edina would not be an upset...
A loss other than to those two teams, a Roseau loss would be a major upset...

Yes, let me spell it out, that means a loss to Hill, Woodbury, Cloquet, Lakeville & Blaine would be a major upset and I don't see it happening...

IMHO :)
