First off - I don't know what a progrum is Moose Jaw - The 15 year old goalie you are talking about is a stud - 75 - Just ask Roseau what a Sophomore goalie can do. They do in fact have 2-3 very talented freshman that will help by the end of the year. I don't think they will be in the finals but they will upset someone in the quarters and would not be shocked to see them in the finals. We will definately win the section however. I don't think Tim would pull up anyone who could not play - I talked to him when he was up in Warroad and I know he was happy about the 4 or 5 guys not coming out because they were cancers on the team and very limited in talent.

I did watch the games and it was offensive and defensive...what are your reasons for portraying it as offensive....it was good hockey....and both sides played hard.....its hockey...and my "head hunting" comment you took the wrong way...yes...they used alot of body...and when they did THAT... he still scored...u know I look foreward to what will be said also...I sure hope my my "bologna" doesnt bother you too much!?.....lol..

..EVERY time a team has head hunted Lehrke...he still scores...PR just needs to keep their D solid...McMorrow will be HUGE this coming season for PR's Defense along with Tolle
I'm portraying it as offensive hockey not defensive hockey and if you don't know the difference you don't belong here. As for head hunting once again your limited knowledge of the game shows through. Shadowing and shutting down a player calls for playing the body and limiting space no one suggested "head hunting". I look forward to all the look at us and our star bologna this season.

#6 at very best--this should be pretty close--they pulled off wins against rlf and kc

I think alot of the TRF so called faithfull shortchanged this team and shortchanged what Tim can do. They are 9 - 4 in the last 13 games and will end up with as good a record as last years Team. Can they compete to the finals and have a chance to win? I hope the rest of the section keeps thinking they can't.

I figured the competition was going to be better. I really thought E.G.F. was going to be right up there with Warroad and I never would have thought Park Rapids would lose to Kittson Central. I also never would have thought that Gothberg would be as good as he is this soon.

It seems that both EGF and Bemidji are way too prone to self-destruction to compete. Is this a coaching issue?
