Which underdogs are going to win tonight? Although some #2 seeds probably aren't underdogs on paper...

Thanks Duluth Guy

If there are streaming options for any of these games, could the links be posted here? It would make the channel surfing easier to have all the links in one place rather than looking in each Section thread for them.

Well at least Benilde won't have to worry about dropping a section final for the 5th straight year....

Roseau vs Moorhead has been postponed. And considering Duluth is under a winter storm warning, will this affect tonight's scheduled Rock Ridge vs Hermantown tilt?

It is looking like an 8AA/8A double header tomorrow night in TRF! If they can get that worked out, it will be a great night of hockey. The last time a Moorhead 1 seed, Roseau 2 seed section final was postponed in TRF was 2007. The Spuds had beat up on the Rams twice in the regular season. The Rams won state!! I am hoping for a little of that magic to be left for this year!

Must be bad down toward Moorhead - not so bad here.

We have about 4+ inches of greasy snow and some impressive wind gusts. One topped 40 in downtown Duluth within the last hour. I haven't heard anything about a postponement so pretty sure they're good to go.

Not a flake of snow up in Roseau. The official word has now officially changed. We were told a 4 pm game at the Ralph in TRF, which was going to be great as the Warroad/EGF game would follow. For some reason that now fell through and the game will be played at 7:00 in EGF. Bad deal for hockey fans as many of us would have liked to be able to see both games.

As of about 7:00 am, the snowfall total was around 5" - 6", and they were predicting up to another 3" by the time it ended. The snow has stopped now, but we still have a 20 mph wind blowing the snow around.

A short time ago, I ran into someone at Amsoil in a position to know the following: Apparently the Rock Ridge folks were consulted about whether a postponement should be considered and the reply was something to the effect of, "this is no big deal on the Range. We'll be there."

4-1 Gentry. All stars tonight. WBL Goalie has had better games, but Gentry has more talent and it shows. Gentry should be the favorite again Friday...

The long, tortured history of WBL underperformance continues.

Sandbaging Stars.There is no way this team was as average as they were all season then had it suddenly click as soon as playoffs started.I have Watched both section game and to me Gentry looks as good as any team I've seen this year.

In their last regular season game, WBL needed OT to get by a god awful 4 win Blaine team that averages getting outscored by over four goals per game. They then needed OT to get past the last seed in the section, a team that lost 14 more games this year than they won. And now tonight. So I can't tell if this is Gentry coming together at the right time (probably some of that) or WBL having the wheels come off at the worst time (probably some of this too). But I don't know that it was sandbagging of any sort.

5-1 Final for Gentry. They looked really good.

Section final for STA and CDH is free stream tonight. http://cadetbroadcasts.com/

[east hockey]

I wasn't paying much attention to this, but over the last month, White Bear Lake's PageStat average in those games was a half point lower than their season average. It showed in their final two games.
