Not unless you are behind the wheel of a MnDOT plow!
MnDOT Plow will only help for 3 miles

I am usually pretty optimistic, but this is looking real bad. If I knew they wouldn't cancel, I would just leave a little early.

This should be a heck of a game....
I picked Grand Rapids to win section 7AA but i'm hoping cloquet takes this one. Why?
-It would be great to see Ellingson show his stuff in front of all of MN at the X.
-If TJ is back, him too.
-They have also been close so many times i think they're due.
Jensen hasn't really lived up to the hype this year so he will have to prove himself worthy. Too much pressure for him?
I'm going....
Lumberjacks- 5
Thunderhawks-2
Also, if TJ isn't ready to play, he shouldn't. It won't be his fault if Stejskal lines him up. If i were the GR coach, i would be sure to put the body on him and get him out of the game.
Go Lumberjacks!!!!!!!

Now that I'm up to speed, I'm takin' Ellingson over Jensen
Cloquet 2, Grand Rapids 1 in OT
Either teams represents Section 7AA well
Good luck to both teams, too bad they don't have a back door

Couldn't be. GR19 was too busy trying to figure out where the band was.
And congrats Syd, now you know what it feels like to be Slappy and post 8 times in a row. If you hadn't stopped when you did I woulda gotten really worried 'bout ya.

Jensen is too scetchy. He isn't very consistant. Yeah he's played good against Cloquet in the past but I have a feeling Cloquet's 1st and 2nd lines will come through this game. Along with Reid. I mean he IS the best senior goalie in the state...

Not that I'm aware of, and their calendar has nothing showing. Whaddaya say? Saturday at noon, me and five thousand other fans packed into the best venue/worst ice in the Twin Ports?
