Duluth East has 14 straight by the official count (mostly at the Heritage Center, but also some at the DECC and Amsoil). They also have two "road" wins against Duluth Central and Denfeld, and we could also argue about the DECC as a neutral site for section playoffs. That would give them 18 straight, and they're likely to add to that as the season goes on. Their last home loss was December 2009 in OT to Wayzata, though they have had several ties over that stretch.
Had it not been for Minnetonka's 4-3 loss to Benilde on Jan. 10, 2009 at Pagel, their home streak would be at 39. With how loaded the Lake is this season, there's going to be some very good teams visiting Pagel and it's going to take a lot to keep their streak alive.

Funny how the Decc is considered home ice until sections, then it's neutral.LOL

I dont think tonka will lose at home this year. vs edina W 4-2 , vs e.p. tie 3-3 and vs wayzata win 4-1. but its going to be a battle! the lake conference is basically the state tournement.
are we talking just this season..or are we getting in the time machine when half the schools mentioned like little falls never fielded a hockey team..tome to do some research
