All three of Tonka's lines looked good today, and all 3 scored at least one goal. It's going to be hard to compete against a team that's that deep, and with the defensive power that Tonka has.

Typically great goaltending along with good defensive play wins state tournaments.
My question; will Tonka's goalie be able to handle the pressure when it comes down to one and done hockey? I am not confident he has ice water running through his veins. Stay tuned.

Yea I have a comment, sorry it took so long I was at the X all day.
Tonka out shot and out-played AHA, but AHA did not capitalize on three great opportunities. In the First AHA had a 2 on 1 and did not put it away, in fact they did not get the shot off. The other times, they could not get the shot off either. One of the better players could not handle the puck the entire game.
I spoke later to someone who said that AHA tried a new forecheck and I think it hurt them. Too many chances for the Skippers.
Can't try new plays against Missota teams. Anyway, AHA will be better next week when they play Tonka at Richfield.

Skippers had twice as many odd man rushes and didnt capitalize either. dont argue "could of or should of".

Thanks Z - looking forward to the rematch. Interesting comments about a new forecheck.
