both teams have been playing very well lately. If they both come out firing it should be a very close game. Walls is starting for the falls, so they hope he can have another performance like last Saturday against rapids. He is the key for this game imo. If he shows up i say 3 to 1 broncos if he doesn't then 4 to 3 hibbing. Falls are down another oplayer with Michael bounds hurt which is a big lose, he might play i heard but if he doesnt that really hurts

Huge game! Possible 2 or 3 seed on the line. Memorial Arena should be packed and i'm expecting intense and physical hockey.

Jackets-3
Falls-2

I have to agree. If Wallsy shows up the Broncos will get the win. He has been improving all season long with his last start against the Thunderhawks being a huge game. The goal that went in was during a huge line mismatch. Makes me wonder how good he could have been by now if he was in net all year long as he should have been. I would have to say Hart is getting weaker having only played weak teams lately and looking shakey there.

Yeah hart isn't improving at all, well walls is taking huge steps forward. I have a feeling this game is gunna be a good game to be at. Which is why i'm making the drive down to see it. I'm standing with my 3 to 1 prediction for the falls

well with a 4-2 win up in the falls in the beginining of the year for the bluejackets i want to say this would be a blow out but with more players and falls playing well lately other than their little game against eveleth(4-1) ....being at home will help hibbing a little bit because of the big crowd.

Falls- 1
Hibbing- 3
Tromp stands on his head with shots being 31-25 Falls

The Falls getting beat by Hibbing 4-2 was their first game of the season, if you look Hibbing already had a few games under their belt at that time. Its always starting out fresh weather your on home ice or not. I say with great goaltending, and solid defense like the rapids game the Falls will take this one 3-2.

The hibbing vs falls game at the beginning was the falls first game. It showed in the first period. they were out shot 10-4. Second period it was better 12-8 for hibbing but in the third the falls got 9-7. Even though i think hibbing outplayed them it showed that the falls got alot better over time and even started controlling play

Falls traditionally gets better as the year wears on so in no way, shape, or form will this be a blow out. I'm expecting a very close game.

I think all 3 top 7A teams started off kind of slow and now have gotten much better and have proven themselves and that is why I think other teams and sections like 4A seem to like to target them.

Corrin was serving his suspension and didn't play in the first game. Should be a good one. 3-2 Falls.

I wouldn't say Hart's play has declined. Both Falls goalies have stepped up lately. Season numbers...
Hart 1.80 GAA
Walls 1.93 GAA
