Re: Hll at Benilde
For the big games finding a parking spot is always a problem! I would arrive an hour early. If you arrive something like 15-20 minutes early plan on walking a ways.inthetwine wrote:I have never been to SLP Rec Center, How early do I need to arrive for this game?

Hill Fan
I'm a Hill die-hard and I am not expecting much against BSM. Hill is thin at D and though they have some excellent D1 talent on O - Lavalle, Brown, Slattery, - Lechner just switched all of the lines after the LVS game. So now Slattery (4G in 3 G) rather than Funk, is on 1st line with Lavalle and Brown.. While this is what most of us Hill fans have been waiting for since Guentzel bolted & Slattery arrived from SSM, it will take them a while to gel..
Coach also changed lines 2-4, so you know he isn't one to be focusing on a single game but rather in molding his team for the post-season.. They should be fine by then but not so much on Saturday night.... 4-1, 5-2 something like that is what I expect...The only way it could be really close is if G Dugas (.93 GAA) stands on his head and their G has off night...

Re: Hill Fan
Spot on. In Lechner's mind this is a big game, but that's just what it is, another game. 25 games to figure out the post season lineup and get everything as right as it can be, because in the end, that's what matters.Wallyworld wrote:I'm a Hill die-hard and I am not expecting much against BSM.

Looking forward to a great game though, and hoping that Hill can put on a strong showing.

Game tied at one after one.
Highest-quality hockey I've seen in a high school game so far this year. The Red Knights' top line struck for the early lead, but Hill equalized with a pretty breakaway goal from Tyler Funk. Hill's been able to spring a few breakaways and probably had a few more good chances in the period, though the Benilde first line had its moments as well.

2-2 after two. Hill really took control over the first ten minutes or so and took a 2-1 lead, but a PP goal by Benilde completely reversed the momentum. The Red Knights were very sharp over the last few minutes of the period, finally started to match Hill's physicality, and have 1:54 of carryover PP time heading into the third.
Some very entertaining homerism from the St. Louis Park broadcast crew (one of the color guys in particular). The beginning of the first period was a Benilde worship-fest; by the middle of the second, he was asking who replaced the Red Knights with a PeeWee team.
Should be a fantastic third period.

Needed a loss? I'm sure that those first two wins made their heads way too big, good thing this brought them back down. Not. That's the lamest excuse for a loss in the entire book. Maybe you could say that after their 23rd game, but 3rd? Good jokeminnscout wrote:HM played great! They couldn't play any better and BSM couldn't play any worse. I think Benilde needed a Loss. They will get things worked out and still be best teram by end of year. Besse must have been sick, he was so tired out there.
Hill Outplayed BSM
Great game. As a Hill fan in unfriendly territory, I was surprised by the win. Especially with Lechner changing all 4 lines after last game. Love SSM transfer Slattery on wing with Lavalle and Brown.. The playmaking between Brown and Lavalle on that game winning 3rd goal is what Hill has to look forward to all year.. As pretty a goal as I've seen this year and I've watched a dozen games.. Dugas was key, as usual..
I was surprised that Benilde looked as mediocre as they did. Hill outclassed them and outplayed them from top to bottom even though shots were 27-25 Hill.... Still not ready to put Hill up there with Edina but this game tells me that Hill can at least play with anyone in State... Good job boys......
