I don't think anyone saw this coming!

I'm going to take Stillwater by 2.

2-1 Johnson with the empty netter.

If I learned anything today it's that anything can happen.

That's why the playoffs are so fun to watch.

Wow who expected Johnson to be here Beating Tartan proves to them that they can beat anybody in their section that should give them a burst in the game but i believ that Stillwater wont underestimate them and take care of the Governors.

Hmm, perhaps this is the year our prayers will be answered, and we will not have to listen to Phil Houseley's commentary during the State Tourney.

To that end, go Ponies.

How about a DE - Stillwater 1st round match-up? Something funny in the air.............

Should be a decent game.. though I hope Stillwater kicks the crap out of Johnson. Even if Johnson wins, there is no way they will go all the way to state.

Prediction:
Stillwater 5
Johnson 2

Sounds like a sore Tartan loser.

I dont think that the winner of this game will go to state but Im gonna take the govies. Joe Benert is a classy all-around good kid and I think he puts this team on his back for another game.
Johnson-4
Stillwater-2
Empty netter

You think they'll pull the goalie when it's 1-1?

I would really love it if Johnson could win, but I'm not sure if they can do it 2 games in a row, O well I'll think posotive Johnson wins 3-1 EN

i agree 110%. and noticed you posted that at 11:11 nice job..:)
greg pogreba runs a nice solid powerplay and all around amazing job with the forwards.. johnsons coaching staff is wonderful and i believe these boys can pull of anything.. how nice would it be for johnson to go to state?!

As much as I love upsets of that magnitude, and as much as I think it's fantastic for hockey in the metro when the governors are a competitive team, I don't think they'll pull off two. Yes, I know beating Tartan was more far fetched than upsetting Stillwater, so it's more likely that they'd be able to pull this off, but if the players think that as well, they aren't going to be as amped for this game as they were for Tartan.

Even if they are, Stillwater is a better team. 5 - 0 Ponies.

A little underlieing story. The Goalie for Johnson is from Stillwater.

johnson is a team that can really sneak up on you. But the ponies have no choice not to take them seriously. Its a tough call who wins... based on their last performance, it looks like johnson is going to save a gov and ride a pony.
