Good game
Wayzata played well. They had the feet moving today and had numerous good scoring chances. Shots were close; I think it ended up something like 25-24 Wayzata.
Krueger stole the show for Tonka today. He made several great pad saves on good scoring chances for Wayzata. He was a huge difference maker.
Tonka did not have the feet moving today. Too much coasting for loose pucks, losing races etc. I hope this excellent Tonka team realizes that when it gets to crunch time in big games when things are tight, the need to keep those feet moving, keep it simple and get the puck to the net.
Winning ugly is okay now and then...it's still winning.
Great example was Lunquist's goal...nothing pretty, he just power rushed the wing and let a good wrister go short side. Those are the kind of plays you need to get to state, and hopefully beyond.
Looking forward to the rematch at PAC.

I was at the game and I thought the call was good. Puck did not go in the net from my view.Gov78 wrote:Old Timer, not questioning your take on the call but how could you see anything with that broadcast? We were lucky to get 10 sec of good feed at any one time.northwoods oldtimer wrote:Wayzata just got completely screwed out of a go ahead goal. Unreal call IMHO. watching on myfoxhockey. still 1-1
Tonka also put one in just after time ran out in the 2nd. Good no goal call by the officials.
This was a fun game to watch with great forchecking by Wayzata really elevated their play, I had good sightlines on the disallowed Wayzata goal and it looked like it dropped at least 2 inches across the line but was quickly swatted out, the people behind the goal and in the upstairs club room almost to the person were all pointing at the goal, I asked 2 random fans who were closer than I was and they said it was clearly across the line! The refs also called icing on a touch up offside play shot in just outside the blueline, Wayzata coach Carl Davis went ballistic as he should have. super game though.
Basketball, a great game for guys who cant play Hockey
it went in
it wasn't scored as a goal; so it don't count; so it's NO GOAL....

That's what I would say to if I was a Skipper fan...blueblood wrote:it wasn't scored as a goal; so it don't count; so it's NO GOAL....
But being a Wayzata guy I'm not bitter, it was more than likely a goal but that's part of the game. No sending it to Toronto in this league. Maybe my opinion is biased but I think Wayzata deserved the win. They outhustled and outchanced the Skippers for the better portion of the game. Tonka only rolling four D for almost all of the game seemed to be catching up with them. They were constantly getting beat to pucks in the corners. Krueger made two backdoor saves in a row in the second, Trojans could have blown the roof off the building and ran away with the game right there.
At any rate, Wayzata made a huge statement today solidifying themselves as a legitimate state title contender, as well as showing the state Tonka isn't completely invincible. Probably the most exciting game atmosphere of the year I've seen, had to turn fans away who came late cause PIC was at capacity.
Stay Classy, Minnesota.
Agree
Agree that things could have easily gone Wayzata's way today. They were moving their feet better than Tonka all day.
Tonka also missed numerous opportunities to play the body in front of their net and in their zone. They need to do that if there going to get to the Show.
No team in H.S. hockey is invincible. I’m surprised when any team goes undefeated this late into the season, but I can see why Tonka is still there.
Wayzata impressed me far more than Edina. I'm surprised their game with the Hornets was so close.
Looking forward to the rematch at Pagel!

Want to apologize for the stream this afternoon. Tried utilizing the wireless connection in the PIC and it was disappointing for us as well. Running the replay all weekend (which is streaming well....) The game is worth a look.
And for all speculating, wondering or arguing....the non-goal should have counted. Video proof inside the story below.

This video makes it look like the ouck was on the line. I'm not arguing that this wasn't a goal because the Minnetonka and Wayzata players seemed to act like the puck was in but this video doesn't prove that. And you have to love that the camera wasn't even on the net when this happened.MyFOXHockey wrote:Want to apologize for the stream this afternoon.

video of "goal"
As they say in the nfl:
"Due to inconclusive video evidence; the play will stand as called"
Sorry Wayzata....

Blueblood. No goal you're correct. Besides the fact that Minnetonka players and Wayzata players thought it went in...blueblood wrote:it wasn't scored as a goal; so it don't count; so it's NO GOAL....

Assuming you're a Vikings may fan be presumptuous but did that explanation sit well with you for the NFC championship game? I know people who are still complaining about calls they thought went the wrong way.blueblood wrote:As they say in the nfl:
