4AA Final - East Metro All Stars Vs WBL

[youngblood08]

Thanks for setting me straight, fantic. You pointed out so many things that I didn't realize. Gosh Thanks.

[fanatichockeyguy]

And maybe its time to grow up... How bout the Bears ending your season :D

[youngblood08]

So what hurts more Hills 16-17 wins in a row over your Bears or the falling on your face 17 times at State? Coming from a program with no Tradition in Sections or at State I would say your pain runs far greater and deeper.

[mnpuckster]

Jeez,I'm trying to recall the last time Stillwater made the State Tourney.........I just can't recall. Can someone help me out with that one?

[fanatichockeyguy]

And Stillwater has tradition at sections and State? Have they ever been to the state tourney.... Let me think..... Hmmm I dont recall ever seeing them downtown in March.

Very average program and thats all it will ever be.. At least until Housley gets outta there which will be soon

2010-2011 Section 4AA Champs-White Bear Lake Bears

what do ya think

.....of course, this is barring that #20, and 21 stick around and Sager being gone.
He is the true achilles heel.

After HM lost several players during the season last year, I made the comment that teams better take advantage of this situation. This was a chance to knock Hill off the pedistal and kinda kick the dog while it was down. Whether teams couldn't take advantage or Hill wouldn't allow it, it just didn't happen. Because of it, Hill's program became that much stronger.

Youngy, you really don't have much credability here. You take shots at a WB program that beat your club 3 times this year and a program that has gone places Stillwater has yet to go. Then, you try to take shots at HM, which has accomplished more in 1 season than Stillwater's entire history. I liken your program to that of Forest Lake...average. Oooppss, I'm sorry Flake, you guys actually won part of a conference title so that wouldn't apply to Stillwater...my bad. How about Moundsview?...Roseville....Hastings? Nope, they have all been to State. I got it, East Ridge! You two have never won a section title and played to a 1-0 thriller, so I guess there is a strong similarity to that program. Go ahead & rip on them. You have the upper hand in that argument.

[youngblood08]

PPG, I am agreeing with you but it doesn't mean I have to like it. The WBL stuff is just tongue and cheek. They don't get it as they are still running around the Village ballfields. You get it sometimes but think you are too blessed to see it.

Can none of you guy's read?

"Coming from a program with no Tradition in Sections or at State"
I never stated we were some huge state title machine.


This is why I think it would have been a Great game.
(Sorry to take you to this fabled date in history, PPG.)

3/8/1984 St. Paul Johnson 3 - Hill Murray 2 L St. Paul Civic Center

PPG what was so special about this one? I will tell you what, Hill had about half of Johnson's State Championship Bantam team from a few years earlier on it's roster. How did Hill lose? How could Johnson ever win? and at STATE to boot!!! The same reason the game between Hill /Stillwater would have been great was the same reason. 8 Stillwater boys on Hills roster vs 1 WBL kid on Hills roster. This would have been a very emotional game, just like the Hill/Johnson game in '84. Stillwater would have came ready to play just like last year when everyone thought they would have been blown out. If one of you can get on here and say we better "Thank" Tartan for slipping up then I can state that the Hill/Stillwater game would have been a great game.

Unfortunately we will never know and that is my problem!

[sachishi4]

I don't think anyone expected H-M to blow Stillwater out last year

[Irish24]

First off, I am proud of the student section. We just had a thread created on this forum about the "sieve" chant being eliminated from Edina, and in that thread, I mentioned that my favorite is "the student sections using newspapers to cover faces and act not interested during the announcing of the opposing teams".... I hope someone took a picture, because WBL was totally awesome when the whole section + had papers up!!!

Hill-Murray started the chant.... "Where is Basil?" as in the former back-up H-M goalie who transferred to WBL... The WBL response was "With your mom."

I personally prefered:

White Bear - "Daddy's Money!"

Hill-Murray - "Century College!"

Still today one of the greatest saves i have ever seen. Truly a great game to watch and even a better story. Also Hau with 2 goals after leaving Hill after his Frosh. year. Incredible game

STOP comparing the Hill Murray team from last year to the Hill Murray team of this year. Hill Murray had some very good players booted off of that team midway through last year, and were depending on a number of JV kids to pick up the slack mid season (A very difficult task to do). Before that incident occured, Hill Murray was far in a way the front runner to win that section, just like they were again this year.

I'll even admit it, I thought Stillwater was the better team in the game against WBL. But to even think you would have seen a simular game to the Double OT game you saw in the section final last year, you're just kidding yourself. It may not have been 5 to 1, but Stillwater doesn't have the horses, speed, goaltending, and overall depth that Hill possesses.

Youngie, you win. I give. Private schools have an unfair advantage and all youth association players should also attend the local public high school. Make that all A level players should attend the local public high school. B & C kids can go wherever they want.

You're getting old when you have to go back to a game 26 years ago to make your point. I did love that 1984 Johnson team. That Section final vs. Hastings that went to OT at the Coliseum was one of the best games I've ever seen. Didn't they win with a couple of players that transferred from St. Bernard's? Guys that turned their back on their teammates...oh never mind.

Dewey Whalin was at least one of the transfers from St. Bernard's to Johnson.

It's too bad that kept happening to St. Bernard's. It seemed like every time we had a big name player ditch us, we were always awesome that year, and like one good player away from going to state..

Kinda like when Tim Sager left the St. Bernard's parish/Rice Street area to go play baseball and hockey at Cretin.

I believe Dan Berthiaume was the other.

More like Don Berthiume.

what is this a 20 year reunion or what?

Actually a 26 year reunion.

[stpaul]

No, it's a probe into the psyche of youngblood08 and how a high school hockey game played 26 years ago relates to the modern day Stillwater Ponies. It apparently was the ultimate triumph of good over evil. If only Stillwater could have met Hill-Murray in the section final it could have happened again.
