Warroad 6, Roseau 3, final. Roseau clawed a few back at the end to make a rough game look a bit less lopsided. Warroad just looks like a bunch of kids playing pond hockey, and it's a treat to watch. Superb finishing and just nasty on special teams. I think they've reclaimed frontrunner status in 8A...

2007 was a really weird year for big upsets. 3 seed Hill lost to Rochester Century. I was driving and listening on the radio. When Century scores the game winner the announcers were just screaming at the top of their lungs. You couldn’t tell what they were saying. Then the announcer did his best Mi...

Eden prairie taken to the wood shed tonight.

Congrats Hill!!

Time for Andrews to get the axe? Three years as head coach, three colossal chokes. :oops: I would love to hear from someone who knows hockey and knows Hermantown hockey well enough to know what Hermantown did or didn’t do in order to ‘choke’. They put 42 shots on goal. They bore down and tied it in...

It sure seems after all these years that the Hockey Gods do indeed despise the Hawks, punishing them for their poor decisions year after year.

Ya know these championship game losses are pretty fun to watch, I think they should stay in A!! Keep chasing 2nd place!

Andover chokes one round later than usual

Earlier?

Later. He's referencing section final collapses.

CLASSIC

Did they buy the pub?

No their daddies own the pubs.

Only time I have seen your team play 59, nice club, just ran into a very hot St. Thomas goalie. First time at the big dance is a proud accomplishment to your seniors. Thanks Oldtimer...Andover was my quasi team this year (having been birthed by the Tornadoes in the early 2000’s) and they’ve had a g...

I don’t see how anyone could/should be criticized by not driving 2+ hours each way on a school night and I would guess if it was the other way around (two northern teams having to travel the same distance to play in the metro) the attendance would be far smaller as well. This doesn't explain the po...

Well that got ugly quick. Elks totally outmatched in every way. Andover is good. Will be interesting to see how they do at state. Whopping crowd tonight of about 200 including players, coaches, and arena personnel.

Did they check on the rink availability in East Bethel?

lol That rink holds about 200 people

That should be more than enough from what I saw at the semifinals!

^^ I agree. It would be a surprise if Peart leaves. Most pieces return and I think he (the team) would want a shot at redemption for the early playoff loss this year.

I agree with everyone on here. I didn’t feel Rapids played a terrible game. The Elks played a good one though and that was enough. I still think the save Elks goalie made on Peart rush right after GR closed it to 2-1 was the difference. I’m sure if He scores on that play the momentum would have shi...

Mnmouth, I totally agree with your view, It had to be one of the most disappointing showings I have seen all year by this team, my first impression was the group never got off the bus and they weren't even in the game. The defense was not playing the way they had all year.The seniors weren't steppi...

Spuds 20th straight section championship.

Wow that is unbelieveable! Holy cow.

Disappointing loss today. Congrats to the Elks for bringing their game and rising to the challenge after the 1st period. Rapids may have got caught looking ahead to Andover after the 1st period that they completely dominated. A shame that much forechecking couldn't result with a goal. The Elks bent ...

That makes 4 of the current top 10 teams out today... Edina, Cretin, Rosemount and Prior Lake. I have no idea what to think about this year. Burnsville could still win it all... Probably depends which ranking you're looking at. Karl has Rosemount at 11 and Edina 13. GR was 10, who also lost today. ...

You go to that alignment and it just about becomes an all metro state tournament being there is rarely a participant from the southern part of the state. There needs to be two schools potentially representing the north down at the Excel! Yeah I would agree. Better to have 2 mostly northern sections...

Hockey is already metro centric as is all the sports, that is where the population resides. Out state is getting older by the year and school enrollments dwindle each passing year. makes zero sense to have 2 northern team in one section. Where are your big hockey numbers coming from with no industr...

Should be the last season at Amsoil in 2020. DM and CEC are good as gone for 2021. Make 7AA all south section and move East and Rapids over to Section 8. That is what needs to be done. Pop a brain cell MSHSL and get er done =D> Roseau Moorhead Bemidji Brainerd East Rapids DONE!!!! You go to that al...

Yeah can we get a welfare check on kniven? Been pretty quiet lately. Hope that ER upset didn't push him over the edge...

Congrats to the little town of Ely for producing an outstanding hockey player.

Rapids firing on all cylinders heading into playoffs. Biggest collapse tonight was the opening 20 seconds. Great game. Both teams had flurries of control and chances. Rapids looked better to close it out. If it comes to it, I think Andover will have a hefty challenge in front of them. This team has ...

Can someone with better knowledge clarify something for me? I see Duluth East finished with a regular season record of 10-12-2. Is that the first sub-.500 regular season record ever in the program's history or, the first in a very long time? First one since 1952-53. Lee I've been waiting all year f...
