Yes, thank you. This sentiment is rocket fuel for the program.

Of course, it's ok for people to openly admit they feel this way about Hill. But if I express a desire for WB to continue to lose in the first round, why we need to pull out the fainting couches for some folks.
Well then, its time to revive our favorite WBL Sectional loss of all time. I was at the game and still stands out as the craziest comeback I've ever seen.

Jay Dickman! Scored over 40 goals that year for Johnson. That SPJ team actually had some offense - averaged like 5 goals per game that year. Unfortunately they averaged giving up 6 #-o

I would like to know the final rankings from Hockeyhub/Let's Play Hockey, partly so I can assess the odds of the Bears advancing.
I’ll bet there’s a lot more people who would be happy to see Hill lose in the first round of the quarterfinals.
I am 100% sure you are correct in your assessment. And I'm good with that. And you are reinforcing my point that it's fine to slam Hill, but if a Hill fan expresses animosity for WB, why the pearl clutching that ensues is as predictable as it is amusing.

Heh heh, blowhard. Good Lord, it's just high school hockey.

Now, who's going to start the annual rant about Hill getting home ice advantage? That, too, is as sure as the sun rising in the east.

Woodbury upsets Stillwater 1-0 in overtime. 2nd OT game of the day. Hasn't disappoined!


Game was extremely even with both teams having a lot of great chances. Stillwater was like 0-4 or 5 on the power play which really hurt them. Woodbury has a nice team and will be a tough out in the next game for whomever plays them.

Wild first two games of section 4AA play. Stillwater & Woodbury played 3 games this year. All went to OT. White Bear almost blows a 2 goal lead late in the 3rd but wins in OT. Can’t wait to see what the next two games offer. Hope they’re as fun.

No drama in game #3. Hill dominates, wins 6-1. Two short-handed goals on the same penalty. Ouch. Couple of PP goals and completely controlled the game

I don't think so. The year we get the third seed, we'll wear the white jerseys all 3 games. Calling it now...

Gentry spanks Roseville 7-0. I expected more from Roseville. Or maybe less from Gentry. Regardless, the Bears should take note. If they play like they did today, Gentry will put them in running time

The flu bug struck the white bear team, hard, and it certainly showed in their play, hopefully they can heal up by Wednesday.

For a few heady moments, the dream of the long hoped for all-Woodbury semi-final was within their grasp.

East Ridge fans are nodding in agreement this morning, "We're all Royals now."

Gentry will be removed from MSHSL long before they even get to 3 section finals.

Didnt girls title team have a player saying hi to parents in California? Gentry hockey and lacrosse academy' will be tier 1 before long. Hockey parents are some of the weirdest folks alive.
