Yeah........they're not. They might win this game but by no objective analysis are they the better team. Just last week Hopkins took them to the woodshed in their 5-1 victory, it could have been a lot worse. Looks like I was wrong about this game not being close......6-5 in OT, sounds like it was a...

Which Boyd? Brandon? Each of the Boyds had 2 goals- Travis tied it at 4 and put Hopkins ahead 5-4, Brandon had the game winner in OT. Though for future reference Travis is the 8th grader and the one that scores all the goals. Yeah, I know who they are... I've seen them play numerous time this year ...

yea the floodgates should open, but fons seems to play well vs minnetonka last game was 3-1 but could of easily been 6-1 or worse with a mediocre goalie You've already stated your opinion on Hopkins, in this thread and numerous others, now get the hell out of here, we will see you in the next round.

Unless you're running a sportsbook, I would expect the odds to add up to 100%, or slightly less if you don't want to completely disregard the rest of the teams. Might want to recheck the math.

I believe some of the best hockey minds ( coaches ) in the world pull their goalie at certain times. I believe statistics will show that scoring with a man advantage is higher than at even strength. If you can't keep the puck in the o-zone than maybe you should not pull your goalie, but you had bet...

thats why i said unless someone gets majorly upset... I'm aware of your qualifier but since Hopkins already beat Minnetonka once it's not clear why you'd refer to another win over Minnetonka as a, "major upset". did you watch that game? I was there and minnetonka completely outplayed hopk...

Hopkins did beat Minnetonka... if you watched the games between these two teams, youd know whos better, the first game was a fluke Both times they played each other Minnetonka had over 45 shots, they just ran into a hot goalie.

Yes, that same Gaborik that averages 50 games per year.. I am glad he can do that in one game but god knows he is only good for another 49 games that season. I would take a slightly above average player for a full year instead of an "all star" that plays half of a year and gets credit fro...

I disagree.. there is a ton of talent and youth at that on that list. I think they would be good, as good as the wild I am not sure. Lots more grit and determination than what htey have. Other than Burns and Voros I dont think the Wild have much for corner work. Bochenski may be a goal scorer but h...
