Minnesota 4 on 4 Summer Hockey League

Post by Hillfan »

This is a little late because next week is the last week for this, but has anyone seen this league? It's a professional-Collegiate Elite-Junior league (with a few HS players) that is just stacked with talent. It's located at the West St. Paul Ice Arena and the last 2 sessions (which are the playoffs) will be next Monday and Wednesday, the first games starting at 6:30 each night (the 2nd game at 8 ) . <br><br>Scotty Steffan, the strength coach of Hill-Murray and one of the biggest names around Minnesota High School hockey camps, got the league together and runs it. He's probably worked with about 80-90% of these guys.<br><br>I'll post the rosters to show the talent:<br><br><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE START--><span style="text-decoration:underline">Team Gold</span><!--EZCODE UNDERLINE END--> <br>Mike Zacharias, Mankato <br>Mike Howe, U of M <br>Derek Peltier, U of M <br>Brent Borgen, U of M <br>Tyler Hawkins, USHL <br>Jared Hummel, St. Cloud <br>Trevor Bruess, Lincoln <br>Andy Cameron, NAHL <br>Josh Carlson, Owatonna <br>Mike Taylor, Harvard <br>Brooks DeZellar, NAHL <br>Mike Wallgren, N.

Your right, that's a lot of talent!<br><br>Some great hockey players... <br><br>Where you listed many of the players play though is off. Some aren't where you say, but a very fun tilt to watch I'd imagine. <p></p><i></i>

Arrigoni, Leier

Post by Hillfan »

WBLBears,<br><br>Simply for some more skating and playing time. Besides, look who runs it, Hill's strength and conditioning coach. Arrigoni and Leier are just getting some more skating and playing in this offseason, that's all. <p></p><i></i>

Hummel

Post by Hillfan »

NPGandy,<br><br>Again, the roster isn't totally correct. I'm guessing he's letting everyone know that he will be attending St. Cloud eventually. Yeah, I'm pretty sure he is headed for a year of juniors first. <p></p><i></i>
