I was watchin the Hill and North game yesterday. Hill looked really good the whole game and pretty much dominated. However I did not get a chance to watch the White Bear game but if Hill plays like they did in the third period of the North game, they will come out victorious.

Hill 3 (Empty Netter) WBL 1

i am in no way making fun of WBL...but can someone answer for me if they have ever won a first round game in the history of the state tournament...i heard someone on this forum once saying either they have never won a single game in the state tourney, or have never won a first round game..could someone expand on this for me. thanks...just curious.

This would be a question that our loving pal from the north, Karl (East) would love to answer, but I hope they put a lock on this thread first!!!

Even though I have a journalism degree, I am at a loss for the right words in the way I want to say this, so I will seek the help of my pals Bodyshots or Medley or any other fine WBL fan...

I am trying to point out that having Schultzie deflect a shot to score on his own team will be the sweetest vindication, justification I can think of..

Fishydude,
Don't harsh on Schultzie! He is a great kid. Sure, it's a shame he's a Pioneer, but he's still a great kid! And no, I'm not his dad!

haha you still gotta give the kid some smack talk though!

sure he is a great kid...ive played baseball with him for a number of years..

but how perfect would that be if Schultzie tipped in the game winner for the bears...especially with a brother at home who plays for wbl jga team

ha schulze...what a good kid. deep down he is a bear at heart. he knows that too. im gonna make a call that he will get an assist to ryan hollar in this game but wb will come out on top

It is true that White Bear has never won a first round game at the State Tournament.

The only team from White Bear to ever advance past the quarterfinals was White Bear Mariner in 1982 (when there were two high schools in the city). Mariner ended up finishing 2nd to Edina.

State Quarterfinals
0-17 or 1-17 if you include the 82 Mariner team:

I believe it was you who showed us this list in the topic back in December. It hurts just as much to look at it now.

However - this Wednesday is going to be white bear's game.

White Bear needs to play good hockey all 3 periods to beat Hill; unfortunately, that doesn't happen very often. But I think with the rivalry and what's at stake here they'll be able to pull it off.

Bears 4
Hill 3

Maybe some OT?

Despite my shots at White Bear Lake in the posts above, I do not believe Hill-Murray will win this game. They are not the same team since the dismissals. They lacked the scoring punch of the last few years even before January 9th. Two of those guys were headed to 25 goal seasons. They have talent but are young and inexperienced. They have some really strong d-men, but a 10th grader in nets who has been inconsistent. Playoff hockey is much more intense than they have experienced so far. I'd like to see the streak continue, but it wouldn't be much of a rivalry if White Bear doesn't get a win once in a while.

I hope Hill wins solely for the reason that maybe all these white bear people will stop posting on here for a while.

gotta like the pioneers here... it would be a shame to end that streak

ImissMYhockey- Last time I checked this was a WBL vs Hill Murray thread. Are WBL fans not allowed to make comments on this forum? I don't recall signing up for the nonwhitebearlakefanshighschoolhockeyforum.

No where in my post did I ever say you cant post on here or make comments. I just said that I hope hill wins so that WBL's season will be over and in my hope, WBL fans wont post on here till next year.

Well I guess my question then to you is. Why do you want the WBL fans to go away? Is there something specific about WBL fans you dislike? Or is it because there's more of a fan base for them on here than pretty much every high school hockey team in Minnesota?

it is because you lack intelligence and all sound the exact same. Also, you have one view on everything.

Hey Stoppatch, what happened? Did the Ctrl and V buttons on your keyboard get stuck?

WBL takes it 3-2 OT

No disrespect to Johnson Area but...The GO GOV's really got me. That post was better humor than anything I've read recently. If they get by Stillwater, I WILL get on that wagon.

By the way,

WBL 4
Hill 1

It will be tied 1-1 going into the third however. Just got to have faith.

Hill was unimpressive in their win against North. North took two dumb penalties (both deserved to be called) that opened up the game for Hill. This is a rivalry game so I'm sure Hill will play their best, but White Bear looks like the better team.
