What teams from Minnesota are making the trip? Sounds like a tough tournament.

I would say the 2000 machine should also the 02 blades have a chance now with the jets key player out do to a broken foot . Also the 99 machine have a vary good chance .

I think the 99 orange have won it before.

03 Blades lost this morning to BC team on a late goal.
Heard the 03 Machine won.

Another 03 MN team called Gradient with kids from Miracle Gold and Legacy programs (+ others?). Not sure how they did.

Home Town Hockey also made up of MN kids at the 03 level. They also lost.

Is the Hometown team from the metro or outstate ??? Great to see all these other Mn teams giving kids the chance to play. I think summer hockey is reshaping. I think this weekend will help show that.

BC must have some deep talent at the 02 age as they beat Team Minnesota in the 02 level 3-2. Machine lost to Manitoba 4-0. The Machine rebounded nicely beating Pacific Alliance 5-2 and Team Minnesota mopped up San Jose 8-4. Machine play Team Sask Brick and Team Minnesota plays NAA Sting. Who ever wins those two games moves on to the championship round. The losers play in the B Side round.
Question: is this version of Team Minnesota as strong as the Blades team in the Stars and Stripes?

Oh, as I am concerned about the 02 age, i should mention that EuroAmerican Red is kicking arse in the AAA division! :D

Hey 02 Euroamerica coaches - I like how you called the gold team red for this tourney. Didn't' think you could compete at the super elite level? Weak.

My bad. In that case, way to sandbag. Still weak.
