I think that too much attention is being give to this Brown vs. Thompson fight. From what I saw they both were going at it and I think Brown got a little help from being at home. Both players were in the wrong and Thompson's helemt was knocked off by a Rosemount player (I saw somewhere that he took it off which is false).

But more importantly what players stood out for their PLAY and TALENT? I thought that Percy, McManus, Stypula, and a few other players played pretty damn good hockey. Does anyone else have an opinion on that?

Thompson still came off the bench and fought a player who was on the ice, that puts him completely in the wrong.


Breakout, thanks for the post, do you know if Rush was back for game or not?

Dave Meyer is nowhere near the best player in the state greatgame2. He is not the best player in the conference either.

You can add his team as well

saying that percy and porter only benefit from having JT as a line mate and dont actually contribute is like saying you can expect the same kind of production out of a line consisting of JT, a back up Bantam B goalie and dirty dave meyer.

I wanted to say that breakout but I was kind of nervous I would get ripped apart. I agree I dont think hes the best player on EP either.

You have a kid going to the U on that team and two other kids that will probably end up with D1 deals. I didn't see young Meyer's name on the Elite 1 rosters. I am guessing he is not on anyone's radar screen.

I thought Ep's goalie stood on his head and made 6 or so game breaking saves. I think he was 29? Whats the deal on him and I didn't even notice Meyer but Leddy looked solid and even with a hurt hand Rush had 2 assist.

I am going to agree with you on that. I thought Leddy looked pretty good though. I did notice one play that JT pretty much made EP's D look like little girls with tutu's on. There was another instance that Percy dangled almost end to end but missed his chance.

It also looked like EP's offense was just "together" overall. I didn't notice a super strong point, but they played well together. I really think they could hold their own come section time. Especially since don't they finish their season with all home games with that construction at their rink? That should help with their play as well.

the refs had nothing to do with the outcome of the game it was a hard hitting game #15 for ep got tossed he came off the bench all in all it was a great game leave the refs alone yes they could have called the little stuff and wrecked a great game
