Three weeks ago, the Thunderhawks squeaked by the Huskies 2-1. Rapids goaltender Myles Gunderson thwarted a Gavyn Thoreson penalty shot awarded at the end of regulation to secure the home win. Andover played that game without first-line winger Cooper Conway, who tallied 5 points (2 goals, 3 assists)...

or without Rock Ridge
move Bemidji or Brainerd to 7.

Using the existing format, this is ideally what should happen, but . . .

There aren't enough AA northern teams to fill two sections and thus guarantee two 218 representatives each year. You can, however, do exactly what's being done right now - splitting AA 218 teams into two sections, intermixed with some northern metro teams. AS ESPG pointed out, this can give 218 two...

. . . There are 8 AA programs north of the Saint Cloud area, enough for their own section. There is only one reason that section assignments allow for two northern teams, that would be nostalgia. Nostalgia is a dangerous drug that should only be taken in limited doses under close supervision. There...

Can Blaine spring the upset?

Forest Lake got a chance?

[/quote] Oh please. The 218ers are the darlings of the tournament. The wailing and gnashing of teeth when there are not a pair of teams from the 218 is annoying. And when there were none, why it was nauseating. And I suspect much of the wailing is from people who rarely if ever venture inside the bo...

Section 1 Hastings - Could use an injection of the cool electric blue uniforms at Xcel Section 2 Chaska - Could use an injection of new blood at Xcel Section 3 Rosemount - The any team but Cretin or STA chant goes up.

Of course, I could have it all wrong.... But if its right, it looks like QRF has got it about right. QRF has got it about right except that Rapids beat Andover. The 'wonder' of computer rankings has taken away a great, coaches verbal battle that might have ensued were QRF not the standard. Oh to be...

Aaaand HTown wins it in OT on a snipe from Max Plante… Good game. Rapids seemed to run out of steam. Yeah, hermantown was better in the third and ot. Looked like rapids tried a defense shell to squeak out a win but that didn't work. I think hermantown also picked up their play, momentum from gettin...

Unrealistic give me a blue blood state tourney all teams that have atleast 1 title. 1AA John Marshall 2AA Jefferson 3AA Burnsville 4AA Hill Murray 5AA Anoka 6AA Edina 7AA Grand Rapids 8AA Roseau A blue blood state and you list Hill Murray! Now that is hilarious! Hill Murray- 23 State Tournament app...

Grand Rapids was too much for Wayzata. The Trojans never quite got their defensive game going and the herky jerky offense of Grand Rapids put them in too many bad spots. Was a good game to watch. Grand Rapids is a real threat to Andover. Final Grand Rapids 5-3 over Wayzata Where is the 7AA section ...

Rapids plays its last regular season road game vs Brainerd on Tuesday. Then it's 6 straight home games to finish out the year. For those believing that the Thunderhawks schedule has lacked top enders, their finish, including the Moorhead and Hill contests from last weekend, affords them a chance to ...

Unwelcome, unpleasant, unwanted, undesirable, unappealing, unseemly, unfavorable.

I thought the writing was on the wall when Rapids couldn't convert on their three PPs in the first period. Offensive firepower was always this team's Achilles Heel, and when they didn't take the early chances they got, it spelled trouble. Garrett Schifsky was the difference-maker, along with Will L...

Not a lot of love for Andover - surprising. Also, what's better for Andover: playing this game at Rapids without the usual rabid Rapids contingent filling the IRA, or playing this game at Amsoil, if it were a normal year? Seems Amsoil would have the better option for the Huskies in an ironic twist ...

Might as well get this going. Defending Section champion makes the somewhat difficult journey to Grand Rapids. Will the Huskies leave their legs on the bus or will they make it two in a row for a 7AA "southern" representative?

It is very early, but if the top 5 teams all make it to state (and that is a big if), what a tourney we might have. I don't really know how to rank them: LVS -- 1 tie on the year HM, -- Just dominating and avenges its only loss EP -- Undefeated, untied with a healthy Jackson Blake MG -- 1 Blemish, ...

[ You must have some really good, super secret data, because all I have are the official MSHSL enrollment numbers for 19-20 and 20-21. https://old.mshsl.org/mshsl/news/csp%20Enrollments%20-%20By%20Enrollment%20-%202019-20%20and%202020-21.pdf Scroll down the PDF and it says "Gentry Academy 54&q...

something made plain by Gentry having an incredible team with an enrollment of only 54 kids !!! Umm...Good example of how bad data that starts somewhere just carries through as fact. Probably doesn’t change the impression of those who see Gentry as an evil-doer, but enrollment is closer to 300. But...

Rapids is buying themselves a trip to Anoka County for scheduling Hermantown twice. Jesus forgives, QRF does not! :lol: Perhaps, Andover doesn't exactly have a smooth ride either with MG and games against Cent & TG could also be stumbling blocks. True, but QRF docks you more for losing to a cla...

Hey Karl - multiple sources report that Rapids adds a game at Denfeld for this Tuesday (1/26) at Heritage. Early 4:30 p.m. start
