Eden Prarie @ Hermantown 1/23/10 Outside on Hockey Day Minn
#3 (in karls poll) AA Eden Prarie 10-2 faces off against #3 A Hermantown 13-1 on one of Hermantowns outside rinks. Should be a fun game regardless of the outcome but what do you think? Can one of the top so called by many "JV" teams skate with one of the AA's best?

We can only hope either the storm isn't as severe or it goes south or slows down and comes later. Would be a shame after all the nice weather we have been having for it to ruin this day. I think they have a plan tho that if it is too bad out they can move the games inside but that isnt what everyone wants to see.DMan-dad wrote:Not that there's anything wrong with the Jazz Club, but...

Might just be high water if the storm tracks a little south of expected and we get a ton of rain. Or high freezing water.sinbin006 wrote:They're playing outside come hell or high water...Northhcky wrote:We can only hope either the storm isn't as severe or it goes south or slows down and comes later.

EP is one of the top 2 or 3 AA teams, Hermantown is one of the top 2 or 3 A teams. This game should finally show everybody just how different metro AA hockey is from Iron Range A hockey. The top ends both have talent but the depth isn't there in single A.mj79 wrote:HockeyMN1 wrote:Nah, EP 6-1. It should be quite the spectacle though, looking forward to it.

EP two out of three.
It's outside in an uncontrolled environment. I think it's going to be a good game, but if it were inside it would be a much different contest. The ice will not be as good as it would be inside, which will make for much sloppier play. This could come down to how many bounces each team gets. Who knows what the weather is going to do, and not having any glass around the rink should provide some interesting puck movement off the ol chain link fence. Either way, it should be a very good day of hockey!HockeyMN1 wrote:EP is one of the top 2 or 3 AA teams, Hermantown is one of the top 2 or 3 A teams.

Bad weather will probably depress the score. Normally you'd say that would help the underdog, but EP is such a complete team that I don't know it'll make a difference. I'd love to see the upset, but I'll pick EP by 2 or 3.
A geography lesson for our EP friends: calling Hermantown "Iron Range" is the rough equivalent of calling Mankato "Southwest Metro."
