I'll get the corresponding picks in here ASAP
Better late than never! I will add them into the "official" season-long stats since KRACH is pre-determined and you are not "cherry-picking" the scores.
For the games already played KRACH has 4 points in 7 games, with no correct (3-1) scores.

Hill-Murray 3, South St. Paul 2
Hannah Brandt continued her amazing senior season, scoring all three goals for the Pioneers as they beat the Packers 3-2. She now has 52 goals to go with her 30 assists on the season. Shots on goal for the two teams were even, at 25 apiece.
We all knew this game would be a lot closer compared to the 10-2 score when these two teams met on Friday. All 14 prognosticators had the Pioneers winning, but nobody guessed the 3-2 score. So, going into Thursday’s three games, our Leaderboard looks like this:
1. Hieronymus – 6
hockeyfan87 – 6
Silent But Deadly – 6
hckynut12 – 6
Nordic – 6
MNHockeyFan – 6
7. Knight7 – 5
D16Dad – 5
Otter – 5
sinbin – 5
FlyingWarrior – 5
woogieboogiewoogie –5
KRACH - 5
14. And one trailer with 4!
P.S. Is there any doubt who will win Ms. Hockey this year?

The scores of two of our three games tonight are now posted on the Hub:
Orono 2, Mound-Westonka 1
Orono’s Becky Smith scored the tying goal in the 2nd period and Sarah Harrison went on to score the winning goal at 1:44 of the 3rd period as the Spartans beat the Whitehawks in a close 2-1 game. Casey Hartfiel stopped 27 of 28 shots for the winners.
11 of 14 earn a point for picking Orono, and there were no correct scores.
Breck 4, Blake 2
Kate Schipper scored both the tying and winning goals to lead Breck over Blake. Shots on goal slightly favored Blake by a 37-34 margin.
All 14 of us had Breck winning, and D16Dad, Otter and MNHockeyFan add a bonus point for the correct 4-2 score.
Still waiting on the Crookston/East Grand Forks game...
Edited to correct Breck/Blake score - the Hub had initially shown a final score of 2-2.

Thanks, Nordic, it looks like I caught that about the same time you posted.
According to minnesota-scores.net, the score in our third game of the night was:
East Grand Forks 6, Crookston 5
Another upset according to our group and the rankings. Only FlyingWarrior had the Green Wave prevailing in this one - nice call!
Here's our Leaderboard with six regular season games to go*:
1. MNHockeyFan - 9
2. Hieronymus - 8

* I've started putting together a contest for Class AA section playoffs, using the same format as last year. Scroll down the list of forum topics to the middle of Page 2 ("AA Sections - Your Predictions") and you will see what it will look like. I'm just waiting for some more seedings to be posted on MSHSL's site (so far, just 4AA and 7AA are up).

Still waiting on the Centennial/Elk River and Irondale/Chisago Lakes games, but three of five are now posted on the Hub:
Minnetonka 5, Blake 1
Laura Bowman scored two goals with one assist and Amy Peterson scored a goal and added two assists to lead the Skippers over the Bears. Minnetonka also dominated on the shot clock at 37-9.
Points for all in this one, with hockeyfan87, Silent But Deadly and hckynut12 adding an extra one for predicting the 5-1 score.
Andover 3, Anoka 1
Andover was led by Mikayla Goodin who scored two goals, including the game winner at 4:33 of the third period. The Huskies’ Madison Denny had a strong game in goal, stopping all but one of Anoka’s 30 shots to get the win.
Another huge upset – as a group we were zero for fourteen – NO POINTS for anyone! Congrats to Andover on a very nice win.
Roseville 2, Stillwater 0
Roseville scored both of their goals in the second period, one by Sarah Knowlton and the other by Hannah Brodt, to beat the Ponies 2-0. Erika Allen stopped all 30 Ponies shots to earn the shutout.
A point for everybody, but there were no correct scores. Most had Roseville winning by a larger margin, but just going by the shots on goal – 33 to 30 in Roseville’s favor – the play must have been pretty even.
With two games yet to go, one from tonight and the other on Tuesday, here's our standings:
1. hockeyfan87 - 11
Silent But Deadly - 11
MNHockeyFan - 11
4. Hieronymus - 10
D16Dad - 10
hckynut12 - 10

One more game has been reported on the Hub, but it's not 100% guaranteed because there is no box score included:
Elk River/Zimmerman 3, Centennial 1
Assuming this score is right, our leaderboard is altered quite a bit thanks to FOUR CORRECT SCORES (a new record for our group in a single game?). The four that for some reason just knew it would end 3-1 are: Silent But Deadly - who with this pick takes the overall lead - plus D16Dad, Otter and KRACH (finally - a 3-1 score!).
So, again assuming this score is right, here we are with just two games yet to go (Irondale/Chisago Lakes and Minnetonka/Breck on Tuesday):
1. Silent But Deadly - 13
2. D16Dad - 12
hockeyfan87 - 12
MNHockeyFan - 12
5. Hieronymus - 11
Otter - 11
hckynut12 - 11
FlyingWarrior - 11
Nordic - 11
KRACH - 11
11. Knight7 - 10
sinbin - 10

Irondale 3 Chisago Lakes 3. Katie Johnson getting a hat trick for Chisago while the line of Nundahl-Donovan and Toupal all scored a goal. Sam Donovan ends up the regular season with 52 goals tying her with Hanna Brandt for the lead.

Thanks again, Knight7, for updating us on the score. Sam Donovan had quite the season!
The result was a surprise to our group, however, as nobody predicted a tie in this one (12 of 14 had the Knights winning). So, once again, ZERO POINTS for everybody
and the final point totals in our final regular season contest do not change from what was posted last night. Congratulations goes to Silent But Deadly for taking 1st Place in this final week!

Watch for a new "pick 'em" thread for Class AA sections to be started later this evening, and thanks to everyone who has participated in this one over the course of the season.

Yikes! I just realized that we still have one more game left on this week's schedule, and that our final regular season contest is not quite over!
(sorry, Silent But Deadly!) In my haste to get out the door yesterday morning, I completely forgot about the Minnetonka/Breck game tomorrow night...
Although I would like to just give it to Silent But Deadly, several others are in a position to tie for 1st Place and it wouldn't be fair to them to not stick with the entire game schedule. None of the four who picked Minnetonka to win are within a single point, but at two points behind they could tie with a correct score. And should Breck win there are a couple of others that could tie with a correct score.
Regardless of what happens, it promises to be a heck of a game and a fine way to end the 2011-12 regular season.

Breck 2-1 win,
MnHockeyFan nailed it, congrads, looks like you pulled out a tie. Knight7 also with a correct score.

I actually went to the game and it was a good one. Both goalies played very well to keep it a close, low scoring game. Breck actually put one in at the very end but it was waived off as the ref lost sight of the puck and blew it dead right before it went in. All in all it was a great game to end the regular season.
Thanks again to everyone who participated in our contest this season. I will be updating the year-long results very shortly, as our attention now shifts to section play.
1. Silent But Deadly - 14
MNHockeyFan - 14 (thanks to getting the 2-1 score right tonight as Nordic notes above)
3. D16Dad - 13
hockeyfan87 - 13
5. Knight7 - 12 (also with the correct score tonight)
Otter - 12
FlyingWarrior - 12
KRACH - 12
9. Hieronymus - 11
hckynut12 - 11
Nordic - 11
12. Three with 10!
Good luck to your favorite team in sections!
