Eden Prairie Squirt A Shootout

Better Dead Than Red · Mon Dec 17, 2012 10:38 am

Looking forward to some great games starting Thursday.

Squirt A Eden Prairie Shootout Pools

Black:
Eden Prairie
Centennial
Eastview
Rochester

Red:
Eagan
Andover
Edina
OMG

White:
Minnetonka
Rosemount
WBL
Elk River

3 pool winners and 1 wild card go to the playoffs.

I am hoping that any other team besides EP comes out of the Black pool – purely because I think it’s silly that the hosts gave themselves such a comparatively easy pool. Unfortunately, I think the other pools are so strong that there is a very good chance the wild card comes out of this pool as well. I’m hoping Rochester takes down EP but I think EP gets the wild card.

The red pool has 3 top teams, so it’s hard to pick between OMG, Edina and Andover. I’ll take OMG here.

The white pool is very strong as well. I think Rosemount is the best team right now and they are my favorite to win the pool and the tournament.

Semis - OMG beats EP and Rosemount beats Rochester
Finals – Rosemount over OMG

As of last night:

Black pool-

EP 2-0
Rochester 1-0
Eastview 0-1
Centennial 0-2

EP beat Eastview 5-2
Rochester over Centennial 6-3

Red Pool-

OMG 1-0
Andover 1-0
Edina 0-1
Eagan 0-1

OMG beats Edina 4-0

White pool-

Rosemount 1-0
WBL 0-0-1
Elk River 0-0-1
Minnetonka 0-1

Rosemount over Minnetonka 5-0
Elk River and WBL tie 4-4

That tie probably dooms them to not getting a chance at the wild card, so their playoff hopes lie in beating Rosemount.

Nice job by the Elks !!! I knew they would do nothing .but improve they have a great coach. I think his bother coaches @ the pee-wee AA level.

The Semifinal between Andover and Rosemount should be good.

As promised the Andover and Rosemount game was epic.

No one left at this point. Have your kids played Blaine ??

Whopper2 · Post by **Whopper2** » Sun Dec 23, 2012 7:30 pm

I don't have a dog in this fight. Ive seen blaine and they are very good but not good enough. The rosemount kids have been training together at a very high level for the last 3 years summer and winter. Practice makes perfect.

There are a lot of good teams out there.

Andover is as good as both of these teams...they really impressed me this weekend. Super glad I got to see this team play.

9, 11,12 are all great players. I don't know their roster that well, but they lack that big '01 type kid - especially on defense.

They move the puck very well!!

andover is a top team. Theirs goalie had a out standing game against rosemount and ep.That being said rosemount is the no.1 team .They could have a bad day but would beat most teams 9 out 10 times. Wayzata at bantums is in the same boat, no.1 no one close.
