What about baseball. They get Spring then they get legion, VFW which takes them into the end of July. Basketballs and pacesetter runs tourneys all summer.

I think what most people don't understand is Juniors are the norm. What we do in Minnesota is special in the hockey world. The rest of the world pays to play, hopes to end up in juniors and is some cases doesn't even want to play in college just the pros.

They might play in p...

No point other than when you use this form of media, no pun intended, like it is a major source of communication to the public, it seems strange to make a negative comment about the local coaches. And whether you like it or not "under utilize" would be percieved as a negative comment about...

Congrats to Jenae...anytime an athlete can continue to play the sport they love its exciting.

From the net out the section has some pretty good goalies which could provide for some potential upsets.

I have not seen this at any other site. Evaluation of these players by name is very inappropriate. And you did it twice. These are high school kids who play the game for many other reasons then so you can write about them. "Player A looked good...Player B had a great game in the nets..." t...

I would agree I think they tried to pad the schedule but they got unluckey when it turned out Crookston, Roseau, Bemidji, Edina, Breck, and Hopkins turned out to be very good teams. Getting in the Edina tourney turned out to be a great move, I hear you can't get into the Kaposia Tourney unless your ...

They don't have to win this game to be a bonafide contender. Its way to early in the season to put that much importance on a game. They do need to compete hard, get better, and learn something about themselves in the process. There are alot of seniors on this teamwho repsect each other and this give...
