I just love when people get so cocky and make statements like that....
They all put the gear on the same way pal.... determination and hard work and a bunch of people saying you can't, is just the right motivation an underdog needs......... so keep pouring it on...Rogers has heard this stuff for years and are uneffected by it.
Go Royals!

I agree Hard Work Beats Talent! So if Rogers comes out and works harder than Blaine, anything can happen.

Rogers will not beat Blaine. Blaine is too good of a team.

How much $ you got on that? Bottom line is Rogers had a very tough time with CP and I'm not sure they weren't outplayed. You have to give them credit as they did work very hard last night and were rewarded with a good win for the program, but Champlin is a very poor team and did not appear to even be skating hard until the last 5 minutes where they had multiple chances. Blaine is bigger, stronger and faster (but so were the Soviets :wink: ). Rogers is simply a good class A team and can't stick with Blaine. Saying that, weirder things have happened and you never know.

Give me...

Blaine 5 :D

Rogers 2

personally. im a centennial fan myself, but thats beyond the point. would it be cool to see blaine lose to rogers? yes. is it going to happen? no. blaine is too good of a team to lose to rogers, they just are straight up more talented and i do not believe that they will take them lightly.
i go blaine. 7-3

I don't know, $5.00? Did you see the Rogers/Champlin Park game? Either you didn't, or you had a pretty hardcore bias opinion of the game, BigUgly. I'm not going to say Rogers outplayed the Rebels completely, but what you are trying to say is way out of bounds. Blaine has more depth, and if they win, that's where they will outlast the Royals. But you are foolish to have the W chalked up before the game has even started, with your bigger, faster, sexier Bengels. Have fun tomorrow.

Blaine 4 :D

Rogers 1

You have to give a lot of credit to Rogers as they really played hard as was to be expected. Kupka played a GREAT game in net. He stopped Beaudette on a breakaway and on a 3 on 1 pass from Lynch. They were able to hang on 7 minutes into the 3rd period until the Bengals scored two in a row. It is easy to see that they are a very well coached team, just couldn't stay with Blaine the whole way.

Keep up the good work Royals.

You're wanting to count the empty netter as a goal, aren't you? My statement was supposed to be referring to on Kupka, but whatever. I didn't clarify the fine print. You win and are way smarter than me.

It was a dirty victory but I'll take it :lol: . Blaine easily could have had 5 or 6 but Kupka played awesome. However, for you to say that there was no way Blaine was going to score more than 3 on Rogers was a little out there.

No, it was right on. Without the EN goal, they did only score 3.

We may be arguing a dead point but oh well. When you say there is NO WAY that Blaine would score more than 3 means that if they played 10 times Blaine wouldn't have one game where they scored more than 3. They scored 3 on Kupka today and they hit a post, Beaudette somehow missed his breakaway and they somehow missed on the 3 on 1. Just about every other day they would convert on those chances. Rogers played a GREAT game for them and were able to hold the Bengals to 3 goals today and only today.

All those things happened because of Kupka. That was the point I was trying to make in the first place. Kupka would be a difference maker.

And Rogers could have had another 2 on Blaine if they had trickled in... shoulda, woulda, coulda. :roll:

And thanks northstar (Alex Longren). 8-[

Congrats to the Bengals for living up to their #1 seed they really did give Rogers all they could handle and proved they were the better team today.
I hope people saw that Rogers was all that was said about them by holding the game to a 1-1 game until midway in the 3rd period.
Were they a # 9 seed? i'll let the Blaine folks answer that, I think Rogers made their point, as it took the #1 seed all three periods to knock off the Royals.
I'm very proud of the way the Royals season went and I think they made the showing that they are not just this average A team that a lot of people said about them.
Great job Royals and good game Bengals good luck on your way thru.
