Re: The Hermantown Thread

Come on people Hermantown is not moving up they lost to Grand Rapids and lakeville South as the Hermantown Community said see we are a single A team . For the rest of section 7 A you might as well all opt up to AA then they would have just as good chance to go to state in AA as they do now with Her...

Re: Recruiting 2020-21 Season

This year more than ever brings into question if MN hockey is really a homegrown product. So many questionable transfers and move ins. Two stars of tourney are move ins from other states for senior year (STA Aitken and EP Steeves). MN hockey has a branding problem. Might as well let SSM play in hig...

Re: The Hermantown Thread

I’ve been involved with CEC youth and high school hockey since 09-10. I’ve never heard of the CEC kids you have mentioned. I am aware Walsh almost played for Hermantown this year. Hermantown will be very good next year and probably go to state again. I sure hope we don’t lose our goalie. But if he c...

Yep. And that is why there is talk of A champ playing AA champ on Monday night.

Re: The Hermantown Thread

With all kidding aside, Hermantown Hockey is just a machine. We just compete for second place. With CEC, my goals every year a 2 fold. Split with Duluth East and get a home playoff game. And we accomplished those two this year. Now playing in 7A, my goals will be 1) split with Hermantown and get a h...

As an outsider and looking at the mshsl rules and system, no. As a person who wants more northern teams in the TC in March, yes. As a person looking at whether a team could do it and have success, yes. I count 16 state tournament appearances. 9 championship game appearances. 3 championships. Starti...

Re: The Hermantown Thread

13,13. So if you make 17 out of 20 championship games, win the next four championships. Will that be adequate to make the move? If you won the c-chip 10 out of 13 years would you then be ok with moving up? Hermantown will never chose to move to A. That’s just a reality. Hopefully CEC will be in 7A ...

Re: Hill-Murray vs St. Thomas Academy - Semi-Final Friday

46 years ago. We are now 46 years into private schools in the MSHSL. It's a done deal in all sports and across the Country. Also the quaint notion that public school teams are made up of kids who grew up together and go on to win a State Championship has been gone since longer ago than that. Ration...

Re: The Hermantown Thread

I love the fact that the metro brain trust can’t figure out and beat north’s Hermantown Hawks. It’s great to see the metro money, and power, and influence bowing down to Hermantown every year. Its pretty awesome!!!

Hermantown is officially in SCC’s heads. #over #runningtime. I just hope nobody gets hurt, physically.

Re: HERMANTOWN VS ST CLOUD CATHEDRAL

I’m not saying it won’t be a battle to the end. SCC is intimated by the Hermantown hockey team. Hermantown gave SCC the middle finger by making them wait for them at the face off circle at the beginning of the game. It was over at that point. I could hear SCC’s “Gulp” up here in Duluth.

Running time, people. I tell you, Hermantown intends to bury SCC. “Playing with our food before we devour it” isn’t necessary here. “Hawks fly together”
