well according to Kevin Gorg, Steffano is the best coach and nows what he is doing and he gets the most out of his players. So I am assuming he thought he could get his starter to stand on his head and be able to give slugger (Mr. Frakes) a break for the night.

So what now? I was attending a game and didnt get to watch the Blaine - MG game. Frakes didnt start the game? When abouts did the other tender get pulled? Because when I was watching Frakes was in net (8 left in 3rd.)

The back up goalie had/has a really weak glove. Missed two fairly easy ones. I got home late, but I think Frakes started the third.

Sometimes I wonder about Stefano. It was a big game for both teams. Why wouldnt Frakes start? He is a solid tender. Its not some senior backup got the nod of the junior Frakes because he is a senior is it?

no it was another junior that got the start, and got pulled during the second period when he let in the 4th goal for blaine.

You know i watched the whole game and Frakes look O.K. at times and the BRUTAL at other times. Probably should ahve started but i doubt it would have mattered.

So your saying that assuming the 3 that Frakes let in, we will give to Blaine since Frakes let them in. So then he would have had to of saved all four of the goals that the other tender let in to lead the Crimson to a victory. I have opposite opinions.

Is this the same Frakes that played in the Maple Grove youth program, then Team Midwest, then Benilde, and maybe had a cup of coffee in the Osseo program? Now back in the Maple Grove High School program?

My point still stands. Blaine had this one either way.

We all saw what Frakes did vs. Osseo :lol:

OK smart boy, I'm not sure how Frakes would have stopped the 3rd one as he wasn't on the ice...you know, empty net. Second, Frakes stops those easy glovers Elmer let in you're tied and momentum is totally different. Add to that the one that should have been whistled froze for Elmer or had he done a better job freezing it Crimson wins.
You mixed up those two quotes there 99. Come on now.
