Apparently you don't know how to search for scores, being an "old" goalie can really suck.old goalie85 wrote:Who did Elk River beat this year that makes them such a powerhouse. [ if they sneak by the Rangers East will beat them by 5]
Elk River has beaten Centennial, Maple Grove, Duluth East, Andover (twice), Woodbury, Grand Rapids, tied Centennial, Moorhead and Osseo. Finished 3rd in one of the states premiere conferences with a 12-4-2 record. Two of the loses to Blaine in tight games. I think that may make them legit. I don't know about powerhouse, but legit.
I think the Suburban East is a good conference, but not great. Flake has had some nice wins this year in a year that nobody had them on the radar. I don't think the Elks are looking by Flake, but I can tell you they have had one of the strongest schedules in the state this year and will be ready to play. Reading the Flake posts, most of you think you are an automatic come next Thursday. You better buckle those chin straps. Game on.
This is funny. I didn't know that Elk River also had to play Flake in Baseball and Football on Saturday.old goalie85 wrote:Rangers are playing well. They skate hard anything can happen. Elk River can't take this group of kids for pushovers. They have enjoyed a great deal of success in Baseball, Football, and Bantam A. GO RANGERS!!!!

I think Flake missed out on a great opportunity this year and may look back and regret the showing against Elk River. I realize that Flake has some nice Sophs, but they also had a blend of talented seniors and Fick was a special player. Add to it that 7AA did not have a powerhouse team this year, I feel like that may have been Flake's best chance to get to the show. I see East being a major player state wide next year and will be more heavily favored in 7AA. We shall see...
