I have also played against them, I would have to agree that they really are not that good. Regarding Englund being in the top 15 in scoring, there is a little factor called level of competition that you have to factor in. Example: 4 out of the top 5 top scorers in the metro are from St. Paul. The teams are really not particularly good, not top 10 at least. Is it just a coincidence that none of these four kids are being mentioned for mr. hockey or all-state or even being mentioned at all? They play against horrible, horrible teams. I'm not saying that Princeton is a horrible team, but there are quite a few insanely bad teams they play against. My point being Englund being high in scoring doesn't mean much and that line is nothing amazing.

SAUK RAPIDS 3 LITTLE FALLS 2 I went to the Sauk Rapid Little Falls game it was a tight close game throughout with Sauk Pulling it out Little Falls took the early lead only to have a Peckskamp Hat Trick before they got there next goal not a good win for Sauk they looked sloppy at times are starting to kinda not play up to the level they were but they get a the win. Little Falls 1 1 0 ‹ 2 Sauk Rapids 1 2 0 ‹ 3 First period: 1. LF ‹ Paul Flahave (Bo Corrow) (pp) 4:55; 2. SR ‹ Ryan Peckskamp (Chris Streit, Corey Cook) 5:12. Second period: 3. SR ‹ Peckskamp (Streit, Josh Walek) 1:28; 4. SR ‹ Peckskamp (unassisted) 5:31; 5. LF ‹ Bryan Pender (Brandon Stabbe) 9:37. Third period: No scoring. Shots on goal: LF ‹ 29; SR ‹ 30 Goaltenders: SR ‹ Joe Dagenais (27 saves); LF ‹ Aron Jorgensen (27 saves). SARTELL 1 WILMAR 4 Sartell took an early 1-0 lead only to blow it they got out worked out shot and the most important part out scored not a good performance for Sartell. Sartell 1 0 0 ‹ 1 Willmar 0 2 2 ‹ 4 First period: 1. S ‹ Dave Lanctin (John Stoebe, Brian Bruss) 7:24. Second period: 2. W ‹ Cass Wierschern (Courtney Alknaer) 1:37; 3.

Shots on goal: S ‹ 9-5-9-23; W ‹ 3-3-4-10 Goaltenders: S ‹ Chris Leggatt (23 saves); W ‹ Mitch Baker (10 saves). PRINCETON 10 STMA 0 Another blow out win for the Tigers who are on fire right now playing real good hockey this is a STMA team that tied Pine City but the Tigers make them look sick This puts them at (5-0) in the Rum River they are playing very well right now but a big test on Thursday against Mora in Princeton I will be there I can't wait to see that matchup. PINE CITY 6 BECKER BIG LAKE 2 PINE CITY ‹ Pine City junior David Gross scored two goals as the Dragons (6-8-1 overall) scored three times in the second period to upend Becker/Big Lake in Rum River play. I have no scores in for the Mora vs Chisago Lakes and the Duluth Denfeld vs Hibbinbg game wondering if anybody has any info on those games.

The RRC is just about rapped up this year, its not for sure but if we win against Mora on Thursday, and if we win next thursday against Chisago, Both home games the RRC will be coming home to Princeton again. even though it is probably the worst conference in hockey.

Who do you guys think is the best coach in 2A? My personal opinion is Pine Cities Voce. Good Teams Would be Nothin without Good Water.....

2ahockeydude · Post by **2ahockeydude** » Wed Jan 15, 2003 2:36 pm

Just was doing a little surfing while on break: Noticed Mitch Hawker's rankings and couldn't help but see the ranking of the teams' schedules, as well as their "last 5 game" numbers... The teams have schedules from as low (weak) as 4.4 and as high (tough) as 7.8. The top four teams also have the toughest schedules - SR and Sartell at 7.8, SCC at 6.6 and Princeton at 6.3. These teams play some competition and I think it's showing in their performance. (OK, Denfield is there too, but they're not doing much..) Also, if you look at Hawker's ratings for the last five games played by these teams, SR has a 9.17, SCC has an 8.61, Princeton is 7.34 and Sartell is a 7.17. (Drops into the fives for the rest..) His order of ranking overall for 2A: 1) Sauk Rapids 2) Princeton 3) SC Cathedral 4) Sartell 5) Mora 6) Proctor 7) Moose Lake <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... lasses.gif ALT="8)"> Denfield 9) Pine City Overall Ranking of Schedule - Toughest first 1 T) Sauk Rapids Sartell 3) Denfield (not improving..) 4) SC Cathedral 5) Proctor 6) Princeton 7 T) Mora Pine City 9) Moose Lake Overall Ranking for "Last 5 Games" 1) Sauk Rapids 2) SC Cathedral 3) Princeton 4) Sartell 5) Dendfield 6) Moose Lake 7) Proctor <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... lasses.gif ALT="8)"> Mora 9) Pine City I predict a three-way battle for the playoffs: SAUK RAPIDS PRINCETON ST CLOUD CATHEDRAL Sartell (dark-horse, but can't be counted out) Let's DROP THE PUCK!!! <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... ns/eek.gif ALT=":eek"> <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/pimp.gif ALT=":hat"> <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... ns/eek.gif ALT=":eek">

I threw a bunch of numbers up in my last post... hope it wasn't "too much". The point I guess I was trying to make is that 2A's top teams also play a tough schedule. I would say that the difference between the top and fourth is probably one team.... in the entire schedule. I think that the teams that are playing the tougher teams are going to "show up" come playoff time... I wouldn't bet against any of the teams (top four) that are playing the tougher teams, and doing well... OK, had to try to make my point.... <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... s/wink.gif ALT=";)">

I had a chance to see Mora play. I noticed Akkerman was playing forward. He did very well. I was just wondring why he is playing forward. Also, I think Mora could make a serious run if they stay out of trouble.

ptown tigers · Post by **ptown tigers** » Wed Jan 15, 2003 6:27 pm

My guess would be Ricky is playing in place of Growboski while he is on suspension. That is just a theory. I will see when Princeton plays Mora in Princeton tommarow, should be a good game. Good Teams Would be Nothin without Good Water.....

The hockeywriter · Post by **The hockeywriter** » Wed Jan 15, 2003 6:50 pm

Good team but no depth and they get in trouble they just cant do this but since reading the post by P-town Tigers about winning the Rum that Princeton is cocky and Mora is fighting for wins right now and I think tommrow night a game I will be going to will be won by MORA no not a typo Princeton seems cocky and Mora needs the win to stay in the race not only for the Rum but the section that is my prediction I will break down the game by position later on tonight but as of now my pick is Mora I think Princeton is over looking a good team.

Hibbing takes it to the Hunters never a doubt in this won Bluejackets win easliy tough one for the Hunters as they lose and all areas of the game a nice easy victory for Hibbing. Hibbing...2-2-3--7 Duluth Denfeld...0-0-0--0 First period -- 1. Mike Modich (Jesse Vesel, Dan Tomassoni), 2:48; 2. Mike Kniffin (Brad Kern), 7:01 (pp). Second period -- 3. Kern (Chris Modich), :57; 4. Vesel (Shea Walters, Drew Walters), 2:19. Third period -- 5. Vesel (S. Walters, D. Walters), 1:33 (pp); 6. D. Walters (Travis Grahek), 5:43; 7. D. Walters (S. Walters, Vesel), 6:00. Saves -- Dan Tomassoni, H, 15; Brett Omundson, DD, 23. Still have no info on the Mora vs Chisago Lakes game anybody who knows sure would like to know how things went down.

Thehockeyplaya · Post by **Thehockeyplaya** » Wed Jan 15, 2003 7:40 pm

I don't feel Princeton is over looking Mora one bit. Every time these two teams meet it is always a good game, even if you team isnt having the greatest year both teams always seem to have a little extra because many of the players from both teams skate toghther in the summer and they both realize that eitheir of the teams is capable of winning.

ptown tigers · Post by **ptown tigers** » Wed Jan 15, 2003 8:21 pm

If you'll notice I said if we beat Mora. We are not over-looking them one bit. Mora is a good team, who always comes to play. Espiecally against Princeton. You can never overlook them. They have a great goalie in Hjellie. One solid line, and a good pair of D. I think it will be a good tough game Good Teams Would be Nothin without Good Water.....

classAhockey · Post by **classAhockey** » Wed Jan 15, 2003 10:32 pm

I think that Princeton really thinks they got this game wrapped up. Don't count Mora out though, they have a hard working team with some players who can produce. The Princeton team is really starting to sound like St Cloud Cathedral with the attitudes they are producing. I hope to see a win for the Mustangs to cool down these RED HOT TIGERS. They are in need for a swift kick in the ass....Go Mustangs.

2ahockeyman · Post by **2ahockeyman** » Wed Jan 15, 2003 10:36 pm

I agree, with Princeton playing so, "red hot" they might over look Mora. Mora is a fairly strong team,and have great goaltending. If princeton keeps their heads, they should have a victory, im prediciting 5-3 princeton.<img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... ohwell.gif ALT=":\">

ptown tigers · Post by **ptown tigers** » Wed Jan 15, 2003 11:12 pm

I dont see why everyone thinks Princeton is overlooking Mora. We know they are a decent. They always play very good, and alot of them know us very well because of summer leagues and stuff like that. All I said was that the RRC looks to be wrapped up, IF we can beat Mora and Chisago on the upcoming Thrusdays. Because the remainder of out conference games are BLB and STMA. And pine who can be tough with their goalie. Good Teams Would be Nothin without Good Water.....

The hockeywriter · Post by **The hockeywriter** » Thu Jan 16, 2003 12:27 am

Here is my scouting report and breakdown of the big game tommrow between Mora and Princeton I will be there it should be a fun one Princeton is hot but might be over looking a scrapppy good Mora club game should go down to the wire. GOALTENDING: Hjelle Mora: He is a very good goaltender if you look at the scores and see like 3 or 5 goals against you don't understand that Mora this year is giving up an average of 30 shots a game which is very bad this kid can take over I think he will be on tommrow night and will make it very hard on Princeton. Osmundson Princeton: The big guy has big good as of late looked good against Mora last time he has really stepped up his game as of late if he plays solid Princeton will win but we shall see I think Mora will get a few more oppurtunties this game he will need to continue to play as well as he has of late. DEFENSE: The groups are like this Mora has Akkerman and Princeton has Larsen they are both about equal with Ricky having a little more skill but Larsen has the better overall game. Then it goes M. Horbacz and Ross both are about equal again Both have alot of skill. Then and this is why I love Princeton's D you have Brown really underated is a very good defenseman who gets no notice cause of Larsen and Ross against Kastenbauer huge advantage for Princeton. Then Jorgensen who is also a really nice player vs Crawford of Mora Huge advatage again in Princeton's favor. I mean Mora has 2 good D but Priceton has 4 and can really take over a game from the Blueline. FORWARDS: Well Mora's first line is not as strong now without Grabowski but still a good line in N. Horbacz, Corbett, Nordstrom (who is a 10th grader filling in) the line is still very good even without Grtaboski but wont be able to keep up with the Englund, Bacon, Schneider line who is really playing well they have dominated every line they have faced latly. The Advantage is Princeton on the First lines. The second line for Mora consits of J. Horbacz, Greski, Kirschner a decent pretty underated line they do a nice job and are alot better then people think for Princeton Miron, Pangerl, Dufner a very good line as well I think they have speed grit and skill Miron a big kid who gets things done and Pangerl I think has the potenial to be really good and Dufner is a good player who shows flahes of greatness. I think again Princeton has a slight avantage. And the third lines Mora's which is Raivo, Hosley, and Peterson or Akkerman this line is not good young and not experinced and they wont play alot Mora will run 2 lines . But Princeton's third line of the Seniors Fuller, Braun, Bowen have a huge advantage here they are a solid group with alot of experince the big boy Bowen who hits like a tank and Braun who has tons of speed and then Fuller the most skill of the line shows flashes alot like Dufner. Big advantage for Princeton here. My Prediction: Although Princeton has alot of adavntage here there is one factor we havent looked at Princeton has alot to be over confident about and I think will over look Mora they could get down early and not get back in it if Hjelle plays well I am taking Mora here in an Upset but we shall see I am excitited to see this game.

ptown tigers · Post by **ptown tigers** » Thu Jan 16, 2003 2:35 pm

Princeton Vs Mora in Princeton tonight, anyone in the area come on down. My prediction is Princeton 4-2 over Mora.Should be a tough game, I am rather excited. Oh ya dont forget to visit Stan's Buffet(otherwise known as the Concession stand) I think it is the best concession stand around. Good Teams Would be Nothin without Good Water.....

The hockeywriter · Post by **The hockeywriter** » Thu Jan 16, 2003 11:09 pm

Went to the game tonight and was impressed by Princeton for there first 2 periods of domination and the third was sloppy on both sides. Princeton jumped out to a quick 2-0 lead only to have it tied and I was thinking there they are cocky and Mora will take over and then with 2 seconds left in the period Larsen ripped a shot from the point and scored and changed the whole game in the second Princeton took a 4-2 lead and then the turining point of the game happened Princeton took a cheap 5 minute major penalty and was able to kill it off and then right after they did so they scored 2 pretty goals first one really pretty pass from Bacon and Englund buried it .Then the second goal with only 10 seconds left in the secon Larsen made a reall pretty pass to Brown and he buried it to make it 6-2. That when things got really ugly M. Horbacz then punched Brown in the face and a little brawl happened but the only penalty going to M. Horbacz for fighting and a game misconduct Mora looked very undiciplined tonight and the third was ugly sloppy on bith sides but Princeton gets a nice 6-3 win . Players I thought looked good on Mora's side Ackkerman played very well as did Corbett. On Princeton's side the big 4 were Bacon, Larsen, Englund and Brown all played very well tonight Bacon and Englund were controlling up front and Larsen and Brown were contolling on the Blueline. This was a nice win I have to give Princeotn alot of credit they are playing good hockey.

SILVER BAY 6 MOOSE LAKE 2 The mariners crusied in this one winning easliy the Rebels were totally out played and were out of tghere league and are starting to get beat up a little I dont look for the Rebels to do well the rest of the season. CLOQUET 6 PROCTOR 1 I nice easy 6-1 win for the Lumberjacks tongith they were just way to much for the for the Rails to handle on this night. STILL GETTING OTHER SCORES IN YET TONIGHT GAMES.

CHISAGO LAKES 4 PINE CITY 1 Big win for the Wildcats they play well as they beat up the Dragons in Rum River play. the Dragons on the other hand continue to struggle and drop farther and farther down in Section 2A the loss pretty much elimanates them from the Rum River Race. Things are starting to look bleak in Dragon land they need help fast.
