Re: Seldom noticed and under rated

Doherty (senior), Westlund (senior), Strong (Junior) line in Alex get a lot of fanfare locally but don't hear much about them statewide. They outplayed the top lines (heralded prospects) of Cathedral and Hermantown last year on big stages. Having big years once again. Doherty, especially, works so ...

Re: First report for next season

Bushy is a Good D...but not at the same level as the four D listed. Respectfully disagree. He was just about all of TRF's offense... from the blueline. Statistically, he performed just as well in the Elite League as three of those guys, which is our only apples to apples comparison. The fourth guy ...

Re: Games Thursday January 10, 2019

SCC missing one of their top D due to injury...fairly close game first two periods...but SCC definitely had the better chances...Sartell scored a garbage goal early in the third...after that it was all SCC...at one point shots were 12-3 Cathedral in the third...I know Sartell beat Alex...but I defin...

I would think SCC is a definite #1 Beat Fergus 4-0 Beat Little Falls 5-1 Beat Sartell 7-2 Tied Alex 3-3 Only 3 losses all year are to the #1-3 state ranked teams. Even with the #1 seed though, this section playoff is going to be a dog fight all the way around. In a one and done situation...all bets ...

Who's stronger the Lake Superior stars or rapid fire or northern wings? We recently lost to LSS...so I'm curious how they stand up to the other northern teams.

I've followed the 02 Euro Red for a bit now as our team has played them often..they were a bit off their game this weekend as this was their first checking tournament....ever. They are a young team and it took them awhile to get get used to the physical play. In time, they will figure out the physic...

no worries...that 2003 Blades team is very good. It's a Brick year for them, so they should be loaded.

top squirt A teams

Just a little clarification...most (not all) of the top squirt AGE ELIGIBLE players are playing in their associations, not in Super Squirts. Also, there are PEE WEE eligible players playing in the Super Squirts league so let's compare apples to apples. The hockey in SS is good, no doubt..it should b...

If you want to worry about the class of the 02 level, you would worry about the blades...not machine. By the wa...

The Machine Orange...aka Machine Black...took the championship for the 02's. Edged Euro American 4-3 and beat Manitoba 4-1 for the hardware. Nice going Orange..(with a few machine black kids hitting the ice now and then)

Watched the 02 Blades beat Euro American 7-3. Euro was up with 1:30 left in the 2nd period..but the Blades were just too big and strong. On the other hand, I heard from a parent that the 02 Euro team has 4 2003 players on it and were missing 3 of their players for the game. If that's the case, Euro ...

I'm a Blades guy...don't hold that against me :D ...but I snuck in to watch that game. Euro has picked up a couple nice additions...former Blades...one on D and a forward...along with an Orange goalie and a few other additions....they are solid.

Doorknob..read the whole post...it's loaded with sarcastic remarks. You can post whatever you'd like about teams and leagues and whatever..I can do the same.

Can we keep the soccer mom mentality out of hockey? How stupid to say, why do we rank them..they're nine. Well then, why do we keep score?
