I personally prefered:First off, I am proud of the student section. We just had a thread created on this forum about the "sieve" chant being eliminated from Edina, and in that thread, I mentioned that my favorite is "the student sections using newspapers to cover faces and act not interested during the announcing of the opposing teams".... I hope someone took a picture, because WBL was totally awesome when the whole section + had papers up!!!
Hill-Murray started the chant.... "Where is Basil?" as in the former back-up H-M goalie who transferred to WBL... The WBL response was "With your mom."
Im quite glad someone enjoyed itI personally prefered:
White Bear - "Daddy's Money!"
Hill-Murray - "Century College!"
White Bear - "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HHN_smdkxOA&NR=1"

"Coming from a program with no Tradition in Sections or at State"
I never stated we were some huge state title machine.
This is why I think it would have been a Great game.

3/8/1984 St. Paul Johnson 3 - Hill Murray 2 L St. Paul Civic Center
PPG what was so special about this one? I will tell you what, Hill had about half of Johnson's State Championship Bantam team from a few years earlier on it's roster. How did Hill lose? How could Johnson ever win? and at STATE to boot!!! The same reason the game between Hill /Stillwater would have been great was the same reason. 8 Stillwater boys on Hills roster vs 1 WBL kid on Hills roster. This would have been a very emotional game, just like the Hill/Johnson game in '84. Stillwater would have came ready to play just like last year when everyone thought they would have been blown out. If one of you can get on here and say we better "Thank" Tartan for slipping up then I can state that the Hill/Stillwater game would have been a great game.
Unfortunately we will never know and that is my problem!
STOP comparing the Hill Murray team from last year to the Hill Murray team of this year. Hill Murray had some very good players booted off of that team midway through last year, and were depending on a number of JV kids to pick up the slack mid season (A very difficult task to do). Before that incident occured, Hill Murray was far in a way the front runner to win that section, just like they were again this year.youngblood08 wrote:PPG, I am agreeing with you but it doesn't mean I have to like it.

Dewey Whalin was at least one of the transfers from St. Bernard's to Johnson.stpaul wrote:Youngie, you win. I give. Private schools have an unfair advantage and all youth association players should also attend the local public high school. Make that all A level players should attend the local public high school. B & C kids can go wherever they want.
You're getting old when you have to go back to a game 26 years ago to make your point. I did love that 1984 Johnson team. That Section final vs. Hastings that went to OT at the Coliseum was one of the best games I've ever seen. Didn't they win with a couple of players that transferred from St. Bernard's? Guys that turned their back on their teammates...oh never mind.
It's too bad that kept happening to St. Bernard's. It seemed like every time we had a big name player ditch us, we were always awesome that year, and like one good player away from going to state..wbmd wrote:Dewey Whalin was at least one of the transfers from St. Bernard's to Johnson.stpaul wrote:Youngie, you win.

Kinda like when Tim Sager left the St. Bernard's parish/Rice Street area to go play baseball and hockey at Cretin.adamp1914 wrote:It's too bad that kept happening to St. Bernard's.

Actually a 26 year reunion.Hockeyfan#8 wrote:what is this a 20 year reunion or what?stpaul wrote:I believe Dan Berthiaume was the other.
No, it's a probe into the psyche of youngblood08 and how a high school hockey game played 26 years ago relates to the modern day Stillwater Ponies. It apparently was the ultimate triumph of good over evil. If only Stillwater could have met Hill-Murray in the section final it could have happened again.Hockeyfan#8 wrote:
