Rolling with the Trojans here. They've picked up their game quite a bit towards end of the season. Have the big win over Edina to close out the regular season and then take down Rogers. Haven't been too impressed with Edina's game as of late having watched them in person a couple times. If Bode McConnell gets shut down, Edina struggles.

Section video/audio is $$$. The schools can broadcast for free, but it has to be audio-only.

StribVarsity games are no cost with a newspaper subscription. Even the basic digital subscription purchased at a deep discount qualifies.

I'm calling the Cake Eaters here. I don't know. There's just something about Giles in these types of games.

Wayzata strikes first...

1-0 late in first.

Wayzata out-Edinaing Edina. They are making life miserable in the neutral zone, forcing a lot of hopeful passes from the Hornets. Edina had a couple flurries but Wayzata was definitely the better team in period 1.

Ok, I deleted a post about the poor stream quality, but now it has completely cut out. An absolutely unacceptable display of amateurism from the Star Freaking Tribune. It is insulting that they are making people pay for this. If they are going to get the rights to all these games, they have to be better.

This strib feed is wild. About half the game has been a black screen, but then when the video reconnects it's like the camera guy doesn't know where the puck is. Gotta be the worst I've ever seen.

What the Trib has done to HS hockey is a shame.

Gal darn Wayzata screwing it up.

A couple of fluky Bode McConnell goals make it 2-1 Edina. I still don't feel like the Hornets are playing very well, (although I was looking at a black screen for half the period) but here they are with a lead headed to the 3rd.

From what I saw (heard) Edina dominated that period. 12-4 in shots I think. Definitely deserved a goal or two even if they didn’t deserve those goals in particular.

Edina outdoes them again. I'm sure they'll be a force in the tourney.

I was too busy being angry about the stream in my group texts. It's been a long week... I need some sleep . Seemed like the Hornets steadily found their structure as the game progressed. Add in a few clutch saves from Bjorgaard and you have a recipe for success.

Puck luck found Edina's way. The first Edina goal was one of the flukiest goals I've ever seen in a while. Edina did play better second half of the game and found a way to shutdown Wayzata. Giles' crew gets it done again.

Wayzata absolutely had none.

Great even matchup that could have gone either way. Eli Molde was outstanding. Some times it’s just not your day…and such was the Trojans’ fate.

Curt Giles-led Hornet teams have won WAAAAYY more than an equal share of their 50/50 postseason games over the years. Now they enter state with a Top 3 seed and will be favored on Thursday. 2-1-3 place finishes with a chance to win four trophies in a row.
