Hanson Brother, you forgot to pick this week's last game, Warroad vs. Edina.

[MNHockeyFan]

This week's expert prognosticators (nine of us) are very evenly divided on the following match-ups, and so I suppose these games should be considered toss-ups:

Hill Murray vs. Eden Prairie (5-4 Hill Murray)
Breck vs. Rosemount (5-4 Breck)
Anoka vs. South St. Paul (5-4 Anoka)
Roseau vs. Hill-Murray (5-4 Roseau)
Warroad vs. Edina (4-4, pending Hanson Brother's pick)


And the following games have a heavy favorite:

Irondale vs. Minnetonka (9-0 Minnetonka)
Irondale vs. Blake (8-1 Blake)
Totino-Grace vs. Hopkins (8-1 Hopkins)
Warroad vs. Hill-Murray (8-1 Warroad)

The remaining four games fall in between, with votes split at either 7-2 or 6-3.

Tuesday's scores:

#9AA Hill-Murray 1, #14AA Eden Prairie 3
#12AA Coon Rapids 5, #6AA Elk River/Zimmerman 1
#9A Totino-Grace 3, #5A South St. Paul 4
#10AA Irondale 4, #3A Blake 6
#4AA Stillwater 4, #17AA Hastings 2

TeamFirst and Antagonist jump out to an early lead, getting the winner right in all 5 games. Very good especially considering there were two "upsets", at least according to the LPH rankings. Tied for third going into Thursday night's games are Hansonbrother and mnhkylvr with 4 points each.

[MNHockeyFan]

Heading into this weekend TeamFirst and Antagonist maintain their leads with 7 of 8 correct picks. TeamFirst missed Rosemount's narrow 3-2 win over Breck and Antagonist thought Totino-Grace would upset Hopkins (they nearly did, losing by just 1-0). There are 4 people tied with 6 points and 3 (of us ) bring up the rear with 5 points.

The recap of this week's games so far:

Tuesday, November 30
#9AA Hill-Murray 1, #14AA Eden Prairie 3
#12AA Coon Rapids 5, #6AA Elk River/Zimmerman 1
#9A Totino-Grace 3, #5A South St. Paul 4
#10AA Irondale 4, #3A Blake 6
#4AA Stillwater 4, #17AA Hastings 2

Thursday, December 2
#10AA Irondale 0, #1AA Minnetonka 3
#2A Breck 2, #16AA Rosemount 3
#9A Totino-Grace 0, #11AA Hopkins 1

Forgot a game for Thursday Dec. 2nd-
Red Wing (#10A) vs. Mound Westonka(#4A)
Red Wing wins 5-4

[MNHockeyFan]

Forgot a game for Thursday Dec. 2nd-
Red Wing (#10A) vs. Mound Westonka(#4A)
Red Wing wins 5-4

skate, the reason why this game wasn't included is at the time this week's games were identified Red Wing was ranked 13th in Class A.

Nice win over Mound-Westonka and good luck the rest of the way!

[Silent But Deadly]

Edina 6
Roseau 0

Way to go Greer Vogl....3 goals tonight!!!

[MNHockeyFan]

After last night's games TeamFirst grabs sole possession of 1st Place with 9 points. All three of today's games are very evenly split (5-4 vote totals) and 4 people are right behind TeamFirst with 8 points, so depending on today's results lots of things can happen.

[OntheEdge]

Edina 2, Warroad 1. It was a very hard fought even game. Warroad pulled their goalie with 3 minutes remaining and denied Maddie Dahl of a shut out with 0.1 seconds remaining.

[MNHockeyFan]

Very nice weekend for Edina, beating the top 2 northern teams. It appears to me that we have two teams that at least for now stand above the rest. We'll see how true that is on Wednesday when they take on No. 3 ranked Roseville.

Here is a recap of all of this week's games:

Tuesday, November 30
#9AA Hill-Murray 1, #14AA Eden Prairie 3
#12AA Coon Rapids 5, #6AA Elk River/Zimmerman 1
#9A Totino-Grace 3, #5A South St. Paul 4
#10AA Irondale 4, #3A Blake 6
#4AA Stillwater 4, #17AA Hastings 2

Thursday, December 2
#10AA Irondale 0, #1AA Minnetonka 3
#2A Breck 2, #16AA Rosemount 3
#9A Totino-Grace 0, #11AA Hopkins 1

Friday, December 3
#5AA Roseau 0, #2AA Edina 6
#1A Warroad 7, #9AA Hill-Murray 3

Saturday, December 4
#20AA Anoka 2, #5A South St. Paul 3
#5AA Roseau 2, #9AA Hill-Murray 4
#1A Warroad 1, #2AA Edina 2

And this week we have a three-way tie for first place! Despite missing two today, TeamFirst holds on to a share of the lead with OntheEdge and hockeyheaven, all with 10 points (10 of 13 correct). Four others finished just a point behind so it was very close, just like most of this week's games (5 were decided by a single goal and 4 more by just two goals).

Look for Week 4 to be posted shortly.
