Should be a great finish to the quarterfinals on Thursday who wins? I go with my heart of course and pick Eagan, but we have a tough time with those tougher goalies out there so I expect a low score, 2-1 maybe.

Everybody's picking Eagan... I like it! :twisted:

Okay, everybody was picking Eagan at first. Now... not so much it seems.

The Cats will be too much for the Spuds. Goaltending for Moorhead will keep it interesting, but in the end I see Cats 3 Spuds 1.

Unfortunately, I think Eagan just has too much fire power for the spuddies.

Eagan- 4

Moorhead- 2

Eagan is better but Bitzer has the reputation for being nearly unbeatable. This one's gonna be low scoring.

Eagan 1
Moorhead 0 (OT)

Haven't seen Moorhead this year, but this should be a pretty even matchup on paper. I give Eagan the slight edge but I expect both of these teams to battle.

Eagan 3 (OT)
Moorhead 2

The Spuds are a Tournament machine. They're gonna blow Eagan away

Looks like the Spuds defense and Bitzer will be tested against Eagan. The Wildcats scored over 5 goals per game during the regular season while the Spuds only averaged just under 3 and a half per game. If the Spuds aren't ready, this has the potential of being like the Spuds/BSM game.

Or . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . if the Taters play like they did against Bemidji, it could be the same as 2 yrs ago when we all thought they were dead & they took out the #1 Hormets in the 1st round !

I don't think eagan has the goaltending to advance in the show. Spuds in a close one.

Um, the kid held an 89% save percentage, 2.2 GAA in the regular season. In the play-offs, he has a 95.2% save percentage and a 0.67 GAA including a shutout in the section final. I think the young man can and will play well in the net.

Is everyone on here clear about how it's as hard to keep Moorhead away from the second place trophy as it is to keep a really drunk friend from doing the walk of shame the next morning?

Lovely photo of a great veggie, but what does that mean?

You are ready to fry them up or you're picking them to advance?
