Elliot, I know it was you who picked Elk River. Not going to happen...

Moorhead is a buzzsaw. ER benefitted from shakey goaltending in both close section wins. Don’t think that will happen against the Spuds

Why not? Nobody was saying before the Roseau game that their goalie was “shakey”. It always amazes me the excuses people come up with when a so called favorite gets beat by a team nobody thought had a chance to win. Give ER credit they beat Roseau with a total team effort. If ER beats Moorhead on Wednesday night (which can happen very easily) I look forward to more excuses from 218. Seems like that’s happening very regularly these days!

Roseau has had a tendency to let in some soft goals over the season. So not a new development. And goalies are just like everyone else, they have off nights, bad games, feel the play off pressure. In an upset, something usually goes right for the underdog, wrong for the favorite, or a combination. If everything went the way it was supposed to it wouldn’t be an upset. It could be any number of factors. One team is off, the other is on, puck luck, a goalie stands on his head, the favorite looking ahead, injuries, etc.Delayedoffsides wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 2:35 pmWhy not?

It is just analysis of one aspect of the game, nothing more. Didn’t care who won, so no need to be so sensitive or make conjectures.

I have no idea. I have no horse in this race. I just don’t like blaming one aspect of a team when a team loses (not saying you are). The earlier comment of a “shakey” goalie (not by you) bothers me. Looking at their roster the goalie they played did not play the most minutes for their season. Also saw they had 3 players who had a total of 196 points that only had 1 assist by each, for a total of 3 points. I’d say that had as much if not more to do with the loss than how the goalie played. The teams big time offensive players had an off game. Maybe just maybe that had to do with how ER played. I don’t see many giving ER any credit for the win and how they played a great team game. That’s all I’m saying. I’m just giving credit where credit is due.elliott70 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 3:26 pmRoseau's starting goalie did not play against Elk River, is that right?Goose21 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 3:05 pmRoseau has had a tendency to let in some soft goals over the season.

Also worth pointing out the Elks were missing a top 4 D that was serving a game for a fighting penalty against Bemidji. Then they lost another top 4 D during the second period in Roseau when his leg was broken. They still managed to get the win despite missing those two players. Yea, I think the Elks deserve some credit.Delayedoffsides wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 4:24 pmI have no idea. I have no horse in this race.

No, not arguing about Elks deserving it at all.
I had just heard that the regular goalie did not play and trying to confirm it and wondering why?
You win or lose with the players you have- it usually hurts a team sometime during the year.

So no possibility that a good goalie stole a game? You have one goalie solid as a rock and one that lets in some soft ones and that can't effect the outcome of the game? Were you at the game and saw how it played out?

Stockman could absolutely steal this one for Elk River, he's very good. Rumor has it he is hanging it up after this season to concentrate on baseball as he is a stud pitching prospect with multiple D1 offers already.

Not sure where you get your information, but Division 1 coaches cannot contact athletes before September 1 of their junior year, he is a sophmore. Yes he is a stud baseball player and will likely play D1 Baseball, but can't already have multiple offers and isn't hanging it up after this season.

When can college baseball coaches contact recruits?
One of the most frequent questions we get is, “When can college baseball coaches talk to me?” The answer is that it depends on the division level. Division 1 coaches cannot contact athletes before September 1 of their junior year. Phone calls, texts and emails from Division 2 coaches can begin June 15 after the athlete’s sophomore year. There are no restrictions regarding phone calls from coaches at the Division 3, NAIA and NJCAA levels, but typically they wait until an athlete’s junior year.

"While the NCAA baseball recruiting rules and calendar dictate when and how athletes can be contacted by college coaches, recruits still get offers as underclassmen. In a recent NCAA study, 46% of DI prospects reported having their first recruiting contact with a DI coach before their junior year. If the NCAA recruiting rules prohibit a college coach from contacting a recruit before their junior year, how can coaches extend an offer before then? In these cases, a college coach will most likely have worked with a recruit’s travel or high school coach. Because athletes can contact a college coach any time, the athlete’s current coach will set up a time for the athlete to call the college coach."

Total speculation on my part, but both Roseau goalies have played as of late and the coaching staff must have went with a gut feeling on who they felt gave Roseau the best chance to win. Both have had moments this year of good and not good. I think they hoped to catch lightning in a bottle and go with the gut since neither lately really stepped up to be that guy. Again, just speculation on my part.

Sheesh, 5-4 Moorhead with a minute left in the 2nd. I can't tell if this is good offense or bad goaltending

Not great goaltending but Elks are blowing in when they get the puck. Easily could be tied after 2.
