CENTENNIAL (16-3-3) VS. BLAINE (19-2-1) - SATURDAY, 7:30 PM

[pondpucker13]

Sorry 4-2 Bengals. Blaine has Centennial's number. While Centennial coaches are very solid, this is the one team each year that the current Blaine coaching staff really pulls out all of the stops to prepare for and never disappoints.

I'm not sure how long the CURRENT coaching staff has been at Blaine, but I wouldn't say Blaine has Centennial's number at all. Before last nights game here are the reults dating back to 2003.

2008-2009
Centennial -4
Blaine - 4

2007-2008
Centennial 4 - Blaine 1
Blaine 5 - Centennial 3
Blaine 6 - Centennial 1

2006-2007
Centennial 5 - Blaine 3
Centennial 2 - Blaine 1

2005-2006
Blaine 3 - Centennial 1
Blaine 5 - Centennial 1

2004-2005
Centennial 7 - Blaine 0
Centennial 3 - Blaine 2

2003-2004
Centennial 17 - Blaine 0

So prior to last nights game, Centennial lead 6 wins to Blaine's 4 wins with 1 tie.

Bahahaha that 17-0 blowout was probably the best game i ever saw just because of how bad we beat them!!! It felt so good. Dave didnt even talk to Eric for like a whole year! hahaha what a cry baby.

How old are you if you're on a first name basis with the coaches?

I'm neutral here so... But they both have the same last name so Coach Aus didn't talk to Coach Aus sounds even more dumb. They are cousins so if I were to talk about them in the same sentence I would probably write it the same way. But I wouldn't need to call anybody names or laugh about it. By the way, I'm 41.

should have been 5-1

I'm not too sure on what your logic is there. I assume you are referring to the two goals that Centennial had disallowed in the late minute. If you want those counted then you have to allow Bjugstad's second goal. Bjustad's goal was definitely a goal. It hit the back bar, bounced out, then the net was dislodged. I was standing right behind the net so I would like to think I had a good vantage point. Centennial's second disallowed goal was definitely not a goal. The original shot hit the pipe and a sliding Harper knocked the net off before the second shot was taken. I will give you that the first disallowed goal was very questionable.

Either way it was a great game for both teams. I hope to see this match-up again in sections but hopefully with a different outcome.

ok. so it could have been 5-1. but a great hockey atmosphere none the less.

pondpucker13, your vantage point must not have been that great becasue upon further review bjustads 2nd "goal" did not go in. northmetrotv.com

This is true i just went and watched all the goals and it should have been at least 4-1 with the only questionable one the cougars last waved off goal. Those refs were truly outrageous and it was pathetic how poorly they called that game. As for the Bjugstad goal that wasnt even close cuz larsen kicked out of the crease when it was sitting next to the line.

I just watched the replays on the website (didn't know about them before) and you're right. That did not cross the line. However, I did have a good vantage point. I was standing right behind the goal on the railing. From there, when Larsen unknowingly kicked the puck away, it looked like it hit the back bar then bounced out. In real-time, I was convinced it went in but watching the replays proves me wrong. I can't wait for these two to meet in the section tournament !
