Would not be surprised if Hopkins pulled an upset, but, I think Edina will be back mad after CDH. 5-2 Edina.

Edina is having a major struggle trying to score goals, Hopkins 2-1

Not sure that after the week Edina has had, calling a Hopkins win could be called an upset

True. But based on the big picture...

Fons on his head the whole night.

Royals-2 Cake eaters-1

Shots 45-20 in favor of Edina

Hard to believe- If you factor out the 17 goal outburst against SLP, Edina is averaging fewer than 3 goals a game for the season!

Depending on how you look at it, they are struggling...

Here is THE stat in addition to the goal scoring woes.

In the first 11 games of the season the Hornets allowed 2 goals on the penalty kill in 50 attempts. Since January 1, they have allowed 9 goals on 34 chances.

That being said, the team has lost twice to #1 Tonka and Wayzata.

The mental meddle of this team will be on display tonight against a Hopkins squad which Chad Nyberg said Saturday has been playing well.

I can tell you from chatting with folks inside Braemar there are concerns with the tilt tonight.

most people are probably watching online but for those that can't it's Edina up 3-2 after 2 periods.

Apparantly a piece of glass broke with under a minute left in OT.

Check near/at the piece of glass that broke but it looked like a stick swung during the check and that's what actually broke the glass.

There were only a few seconds remaining in OT when the glass broke but they finished it and the game ended tied at 3.

I watched periods 2 & 3 online, shots were 2:1 for Edina but for the first half of the game it was much closer. Hopkins tied it late in the 3rd and either team could've won it in OT.

My $0.02, Hopkins as a team is very average this year and Fons always keep it close. A good Edina team should've had no problem tonight but that's not how they've been playing of late but this is not one of Edina's stronger teams.
