The broncos travel to Hibbing tomorrow to finish 2 game series. Hibbing won 4-2 with an empty net with 5 seconds left in the falls. Who takes this one? Could be crucial for 7a seeding

The winner of this game is nearly a lock for the #2 seed, and the loser will still likely be #3.

I'll go 5-3 Hibbing.

Couple things about, and since their last meeting

1. After last meeting an official came to the Bronco locker room and apologized to a player for not calling a penalty shot (explained his mistake) which could have tied the game with seconds left.

2. Hibbing has gotten worse while I-Falls has gotten better (I-falls lost to Grand Rapids by 1) (beating both Duluth D and Virginia)(GR beat Hibbing by 3)

I'm going to go with I-Falls by 3

HA HA! Can't wait to watch Hibbing prove you wrong! just an fyi Hibbing has beat both denfeld and virginia without their top player.

Great news for those interested, it appears audio for this game will be streamed by an I-Falls radio station.

On a side note: Thanks for nothing WMFG in Hibbing. Stations in towns half the size of Hibbing (Rapids, Little Falls, I-Falls) stream many of their teams' games, yet you are too cheap and/or technologically inert to do the same.

Hibbing by 3

I think it will be close but will take I falls 3-2.

Is Johnson back?????

Yes Johnson is back in the lineup. He played Monday against Proctor

Yep. He had a goal and five assists vs Proctor on Monday. Hopefully he can do it again tonight.

Hibbing leads 1-0 after 1. A major penalty was called on Hibbing, but Adam Johnson scores a shorty to put them ahead.

2-0 Hibbing after 2. Hibbing will have 1:40 of pp to begin the 3rd.

I falls scored to bring the score to 2-1 but was quicly answered by hibbing. 3-1 now Hibbing

and a quick answer from I falls to get back within 1.

3-2 Hibbing

3-2 Final

Hibbing wins 3-2, locking up the #2 seed in the process. Very close game.

These two teams can either play a great game or a decent game and barely lose by 1 or 2 goals. I don't think either team has a bigger advantage over each other. They have both shown they can compete. There's a good chance one of these two teams will be playing an improving D-Marshall team, and that should be their main focus.

Agreed. Barring a huge quarterfinal upset, these two teams will meet in Rapids to see who gets a shot at upsetting Marshall. Should be another nail-biter.
