Re: Section Finals Locations Thought

Interesting thought - not sure if it would ever garner much traction. It's cool to think about that maybe someday they could host section 2, 3, 4, 5, & 6. Maybe a double header on Wednesday night for 2AA and 6AA like the old Mariucci days. 3AA and 5AA on Thursday night. Leave 4AA at it's usual F...

Re: 2022 AA Official State Bracket

A little surprised to see HM get the #1 seed. Aside from strength of schedule playing a role, I believe common opponents played a role. Cretins 2 losses to STA and Hill’s 2 wins against STA may have been the deciding factor.

Excited as always for a great tourney.

Re: Sparlimb

Of all the great HM-WBL games that 2006 Section final was the best. HM was 25-1-1, but had not been to State in 3 years. WBL returned much of the team from what was the best team in the State in 2005. However the curse continued and they had lost to Duluth East in the State quarterfinals. Both team...

Re: Biggest Tourney upsets

Perhaps 2008 HM over Roseau deserves mentioning? (I may be biased, but at the time did not think that Hill team stood a chance against that Roseau team) Hill beat them in the semis ending a 42 (estimate) game winning streak for Roseau dating back to the previous season. That victory propelled them t...

Re: Maple Grove vs Blake

Feel bad for the Maple Grove players, they deserve better. Refs forced their way into this game and helped decide the outcome, hate to see that in a ...

Re: Section 4AA thread

Just got to Aldrich. People worried about Hill getting an “advantage” from their banners being up or using their own locker room - it’s not happening tonight. Banners are down and Hill is not using their own locker room. No advantage for Hill tonight :roll: Rest easy people...let’s just play hockey.

This shouldn't be a comparison. The Bears are by far superior and I was reminded of this today while at Mariucci watching the STA vs HM game. The Bears have always been very respectable fans - which I can never say about the "Cadets" who go to school to "become ethical leaders". ...
