I've seen this poem on the board the last few years right before the tournament. I hadn't seen it yet posted this year and with the tournament starting tomorrow figured I would post it (I did not write it however). It is the biggest dream For you and your team It's why you've worked for all these ye...

Hats off to Apple Valley. Played strong in sections upsetting Woodbury and playing CDH tough until the end. Congratulations on a fine season.

Jefferson 6
Edina 5 Overtime

One for the ages

Being unbiased with this game (have had no association with either schools) when watching the video I think the knee by Mausolf was pretty immature. Westin appears that he embelished a little bit, but is that how you really get even with another player like that by kneeing him when hes on the ground...

I think it should be a pretty even game...with the slight edge going to Cretin.

That being said, Eagan does get revenge from the 2006 State Tournament and wins, 4-3. (Caspar has 30+ saves)

Who will advance to the 3AA Section Finals?

The Best 4th Liner:
I love how you guys open your mouth with out even knowing any thing about the game. Moorhead did plenty to not run up the score. Goals came from 4th line guys shorthanded. Two guys on the forth line had hattricks.

Were you one of the guys from the 4th line to get one?

Eagan by 2 or 3

Not the most exciting section this year, but what are peoples predictions? Will Woodbury walk through easily? Chance at upsets?

any Eagan - Apple Valley update?

I think that a little more balance in Sections would be nice. 1AA kills me. However, it's always fun to have a couple good Sections because the finals are unbelievable games. Last year I had the most fun watching the Burnsville V Edina game down at Mariucci. I'd say that game had more of a "St...

St. Francis (Joey Benik gets a hat trick in all 3 games duplicating Dave Spehar and becomes a high school legend) Maple Grove (Cinderalla so far this season) Hopkins (Boyd and Fons) North Metro (Who??)

Thanks for the rankings Karl. Very nice input and have to say I agree right down the line. Cant wait for section time.

Congratulations Joey on the record. To be honest, the overwhelming arugment that his schedule, goaltenders, oppenents he faces has gotten pretty redundant. At some point, the player deserves some credit. I know its easy to judge since he plays for a non-powerhouse program and obviously that factors ...

Benik definitely has some solid talent. Those were some good moves on the BSM defenders. I know a lot has been made of his schedule, opponents, etc. but after finally getting to see some footage of him lately I have been very impressed.

any other lake conference updates?

Burnsville at Eagan
Apple Valley at Jefferson

I agree, Zajac is a solid player at Eagan and is playing real well as of late. Michaelson and Zajac in the Lake are both very talented players.

Greatest tournament in sports. First recollection from the state tournament I had was coming home from elementary school to turn on the afternoon game and thinking the pace was equivalent to the NHL. Would go to sleep with the nightcap games on. Finally, after attending in middle school realized it ...

karl, i agree with your rankings for the most part with the lone exception of flip flopping centennial and blaine. and as MN Moose noted, the muddled lake conference probably starts with Eagan and not AV Eastview or Burnsville. Eagan is 12-5-1 and 9-4 in the lake I believe (good enough for a distant...

1.Jefferson-Still the team to beat. 2.Centennial-This win really proved that they have what it takes. 3.Edina-They ran into 2 hot goalies, but they have enough wins against top 15 teams to remain in the top 3. 4.Blaine-Tied Cent, only loss was to Edina. 5.EP-Played Jefferson/Edina until the end, co...

Eden Prairie 2, Eagan 0

EP scored the first goal early in the first from a pretty shot from the point, and got a nice deflection fairly early in the second.

That is exactly what i was gonna say too Pucklvr regarding parity. While I realize the high school hockey here produces the most talent (usually) year after year, i think this year the depth lacks compared to other years. There are top tier players this year dont get me wrong, like there always will...

I kinda agree too that the level of play this year seems to be down. Just my opinion, maybe its the games that ive watched im not sure but i agree with that assessment.
