Duluth East-Cloquet II (2/11/09)
The teams enter this game with nearly opposite records, but history has shown that it tends to end up being worth the price of admission for one reason or another.
Consider the last ten meetings, which have included:
-5 Cloquet wins
-4 East wins
-1 tie
-6 1-goal games
-1 2-goal game, by virtue of an empty-netter
-3 playoff meetings
-3 overtimes and one game decided with 11.9 seconds to go
-2 major on-ice fights
-22 East goals
-22 Cloquet goals
We'll see what this one brings us. I could see it being a dangerous game, with a Cloquet team frustrated with a very bad season getting a shot at their hated rivals at home.

Downtown is in good shape...for now. They expect the freezing rain to pick up later this afternoon.Lucia4President wrote:I'd say there is good chance.

I picked a good week to go on vacation
I'm an optimist so I'll predict the game will happen.

East by three. Hopefully no one gets injured or suspended.

You'll get your wish! Duluth Schools are closed today, so this game won't happen on Tuesday night. I'm sure it will be rescheduled...Duluth 4 wrote:I'll hope for an ice day and rescheduled... haha. :]east hockey wrote:Downtown is in good shape...for now.

Figures... Probably one road that is so remote, it hasn't seen a snow plow this winter.east hockey wrote:The "official" word was that there was icing on rural roads outside Duluth.PuckRanger wrote:Current conditions in Duluth: 39'F with light rain and fog.
