Can you buy advanced ticets? And why don't they play it at the Herb on campus?hockey9011 wrote:All St. Cloud final should provide the town with one of the biggest high school hockey games in recent memory. Due to the two teams involved, the game was rightfully moved to the MAC in St. Cloud. I assume its going to be sold out so make sure you get tickets early. Cathedral slipped by Apollo earlier in the year but Apollo has played well down the stretch. Who does everyone got in this one?
Althaus better than Fritz? Sure looking at numbers I understand but when Fritz shows up he is arguably the best goalie in Single A hockey. And he hasn't had as much help as he has in the past this season and take into account the teams that he's playing against compared to Althaus. He's an on and off kind of kid, but when he is on they aren't going to be giving up too many goals. Goalie stats can be deceiving.Hockey7326 wrote:I'm taking Apollo in this one. The last times these two teams played apollo outshot then 31-23, however they went 0-9 on the PP. Looking back at some numbers though Apollos PP has gotten much better from the beginning of the year and I think will be able to take advantage of the undisciplined Crusaders at least once this time around. I think Apollo is too hot right now. Apollo is the better team defensively and in net with Althaus but can the Crusaders speed beat them? I think if Cathedral is to win this game they will have to do it with their speed.
FINAL 3-1 Apollo with an empty net goal.

Advanced tickets available starting Wednesday at 7:30 AM I believe. I would recommend getting one early too because this is probably the town's biggest high school hockey game in the last decade, if not ever. Any hockey fan from the area is going to want to be there.hawkhockey wrote:Can you buy advanced ticets?

On the radio Monday, Dave Overland (the play-by-play guy) stated that the game will not be on the radio; however, it will be streamed on WJON.com. It's possible that it would also be streamed on MSBN.Mite-dad wrote:Anyone know if streaming audio will be available for this game?
The MAC website says "Pre Sale Tickets at the MAC 12:00pm - 5:00pm in the Business office" under Thursday.

They were sold at the schools during the day today I believe. I just assumed that the MAC was doing the same thing but you're right they're only selling starting at noon tomorrow.hockey9011 wrote:hawkhockey wrote:7:30 was for students at cathedral and apollo high schoolYearbookWontClose wrote: Advanced tickets available starting Wednesday at 7:30 AM I believe.

Apollo Headed to State after going ahead on an EN goal 4-2 w less than a minute to go in reg.hockeylover20 wrote:The MAC is officially sold out!!!!
Both of the teams were most comfortable at this rink given that it's their home rink. Also, the MAC is NHL size sheet and NHC is Olympic. It is a totally different game when played on a wider surface and I don't think the coaches wanted to add that aspect into the game. Also, the packed arena gave it an atmosphere that probably wouldn't have been the same at SCSU.hawkhockey wrote:Really fun game. There were a lot of big hits and plenty of speed. My only complaint would be that they sold too many tickets. Any reason why they didn't play at the NHC? Can't imagine there's too much ice being used there at this time of the year.
Very valid points. I was looking at it only from a fan perspective and hoping to get more people in the building because the MAC felt a bit too packed for me. If I was playing I would want it on the small ice too.YearbookWontClose wrote:Both of the teams were most comfortable at this rink given that it's their home rink.
