Evan Murr from Stillwater is at Lincoln also. Depending how things develop I know multiple Elite League kids who have junior spots if they want them and may go that route if HS season looks dicey, etc.

Re: The Hermantown Thread

Having no dog in the fight felt bad for Hermantown in the sense that they were the better team and deserved to win the game if you take into account game control, chances, etc...but that's hockey it can be a cruel game...hopefully they will consider opting up as they can compete with anyone.

Re: Maple Grove vs Blake

I think it's more disappointing that the ref who was over 100 feet away makes that call. I think as a coach, fan, etc. you simply ask for consistency in calls..if down by a G MG may not have been in position for that second penalty call anyway - as with the limited time left and down a goal you have...

Re: 2020 Section Tournament Scores Thread

LS had the territorial and play advantage and control of most of game no doubt. Agree that calls were very one sided and curious as to timing of certain late calls when similar things were not called prior. You'd like in a championship OT setting to let kids settle it unless it's blatant. The too ma...

Everyone has various metrics and such they use for something like this. To me I look at a guy like Randolph who took over something not too great, made it a top program, and has kept it at a high level. Like him or not the track record is there.

Interesting hire. If he has the juice needed in the tank could be a home run for them. Hockey knowledge certainly isn't an issue. Best of luck to Eaves and the Oles!
