Actually they split last year, each team winning 6-3 on the roadmnh21 wrote:I thought i already have?
Just because Mahtomed is obviously the underdog doesn't mean anything. If you remember correctly Mahtomedi lost to STA 7-1 last year...didn't seem to make a difference would you say?
Great points.drop the puck wrote:Last years Zephyr goalie stopped 44 shots in a 2 - 1 sectional win. STA outshot Mahtomedi 45 to 25.
Wohlers last year had better than a .93 save percentage across the season. Marshall is sub 0.88 this year.
Zephyrs are peaking at the right time, but it remains a long shot at best. STA will be in the Section Finals. Not sure Mahtomedi can get that far.

No they didn't... They met 3 times last year. Both scores were 6-3 (split series) and Maht. won in section finals 2-1.mnh21 wrote:1. Mahtomedi's junior line is their leading scores so no I don't think all the talent graduated.
2. If Sawyer Marshall plays on his head then that will limit scoring chances.
3. Mahtomedi's biggest weapon is them being an underdog.
4. Sta beat Mahtomedi 7-1 last year and that didn't seem to make much a difference..would you disagree?

Most of their best impact players left; you cannot deny that.mnh21 wrote:1. Mahtomedi's junior line is their leading scores so no I don't think all the talent graduated.

What does that prove? Someone HAS to be their leading scorer. Thats like saying our goalie scored two goals, he is our leading scorer, so no, I dont think all the talent has graduated.mnh21 wrote:1. Mahtomedi's junior line is their leading scores so no I don't think all the talent graduated.

According to you it doesn't matter because Mahtomedi can beat them regardless.mnh21 wrote:If st.Thomas has any guts they should play double A anyways

I should have used St Paul Highland Park instead of Sleepy Eye.starmvp wrote:east hockey wrote:Wow! That is considered a weapon?

That makes no sense defense limits the scoring chances while the goalie stops the scoring chances. Just cause a goalie makes a great save doesn't mean it wasn't a scoring chance. I think all 4 points have been disproven now.mnh21 wrote:1. Mahtomedi's junior line is their leading scores so no I don't think all the talent graduated.

STA was not unreliable the past two years. I squeezed into that Section game last year at Aldrich as a neutral observer. STA played well, outshooting Mahtomedi almost 2 - 1. They played tough on Ben Marshall on his attempts to skate up through the neutral zone. He got his bell rung and had to sit a shift or two at the back of the bench. But over the entire game he rarely left the ice last year. Marshall is one of the best players to come out of the East Side in the past 10 years. He made a difference. Most state tournament teams have one of these guys on the ice.MNhockeyfan12101 wrote:Marshall is a solid goalie. His save % would have been a lot higher if he wasn't injuried for half the season. If Mahtomedi's juniors get hot including Marshall they could make a run in sections.. STA Isn't very reliable when it comes to the section championship game As we can see from the last few years..
What's funny is that somehow you can call Mahtomedi the underdog last year. Two games were played between the two; lost the first 6-3, won the second 6-3. Imo, should've been the top seed. Either way, not the underdog. Hard to say they were a huge underdog two years ago either.mnh21 wrote:What's funny is you all are probably obsessive dad's that don't have a life.
