First OT favored Mahtomedi’s depth. Second might favor Warroads top end.

I don't like ragging on this but I have to. Alexandria gets a player thrown in the box because he jumped into the wrong boards after scoring a goal. Mahtomedi manages to stay out of the box when their last goal scorer goes out of his way to taunt the ref after this last goal. I guess I would have called an unsportsmanlike on that display. I am all for celebrating but that was over the top. That was obnoxious especially when the waived off goal earlier was indeed the correct call.
Call was incorrect
Maht player was in the crease before the puck. That was the correct call 15 years ago, did it change?

The call was goalie interference.
Maht argued he was pushed in by Warroad player.
It was clear he was charging net on his own power.
Opponent contact does not matter at that point.
Correct call.

Mahtomedi wins 6-5!
What a heck of a game.
I wanted Warroad to go undefeated but not to be.
Congrats to both teams on a hard fought contest.

BHS Class A Championship
#3 Mahtomedi 6
#1 Warroad 5
Final Double OT
DEJA VU just like in 2020 the Zephyrs come into the Tourney and play Giant Killer knocking off both Hermantown & Warroad again in route to their 2nd State Class A Title!
What a hockey game!

So, 3rd place in the Tradition Rich Metro East = 1st place in Class A. Seems about right.
Hat tip to the Zephyrs. (Does this mean Hill actually did have two quality wins during the season?

I think ESPG is talking about Eveleth Trophy they give from the 1st State Title to teams now along with the Championship hardware

Got to give Mahtomedi credit. They lose talented to players to Hill Murray and still keep winning. That’s a credit to good coaching.

That's right. Then when they came out with remote control, we sent the old ones to International Falls or wherever Elliot hails from. Him and Fichuk would sit around with a couple of Cold Spring beers and watch the I-Falls repeat championship games from the 60s.

Actually, from Bovey, just love the Broncos.
Pete Fichuk, pound for pound the toughest hockey player of all time.
