What game were you watching? Edina played well from start to finish. For a team that many had given up on after a 2-3-1 start, last night's outing showed that a "down" year for the Hornets still means a worthy foe for most HS teams.
I’ll be at the Rosemount vs Andover game in SLP Thursday. After beating MG 4-0, & DE upsetting Blaine & then drubbing the Cougars...it appears that Andover is simply “that good” rather than DE being “that bad”. And I have a new favorite DE player, diminutive 9th grader Cole Christian (both my sons were bigger than him as PeeWee’s) but can this kid skate & handle the puck & slither out of being crushed into the boards. Also was entertaining to see 5 DE players on the PP against DM, and all 5 had the Captain C on their jerseys . Since only one of them played a regular shift on varsity last year, must have been a reward for the other 4 seniors enduring 2 years playing JV
What in the world does this have to do with with Edina beating Rapids? Rosemount, Andover, MG, Blaine, Centennial and of course DE....Just Sayin.hockey59 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2019 1:03 pmI’ll be at the Rosemount vs Andover game in SLP Thursday.

I think it's a head start on the this year's use of the transitive property.MWS coach wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2019 1:24 pmWhat in the world does this have to do with with Edina beating Rapids?

I'm not making any excuses for the play of Grand Rapids but I have seen this many times where teams have a long bus ride (a few hours) and come out lethargic. I call it bus legs. We may know more tonight but EP will be tough.Immigrant Fan wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2019 2:46 pm It was a disappointing showing for GR. The victories over BSM and Minnetonka were by a hard working, motivate team. Against Edina I thought Rapids lacked energy and fire. Then once Edina got up on them it seemed panic set-in with whiffs and rushed passes. Maybe it comes with a young team. We'll see what tonight brings.
Who’s Edina? The post was directed at West MetroMWS coach wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2019 1:24 pmWhat in the world does this have to do with with Edina beating Rapids?

Interesting perspective. I enjoy games when a team plays well. I watch more hockey than anyone else so I'm probably like a movie critic that is looking for different things than someone else.northwoods oldtimer wrote: ↑Fri Dec 20, 2019 4:52 pmGlad you enjoyed the game.
In order to have an entertaining game 2 teams need to show up and one did.
Majority of Rapids - Edina games dating back to the 70's have been good match ups.
This one was U-G-L-Y to watch like the past 2 seasons.
