St. Louis Park tournament championship. EP has looked great and Moorhead took down Wayzata. Rematch of the 2009 State Championship. I'm taking EP 5-2. Who you got?

If Bitzer plays as well as he did last night (he made some spectacular saves vs. Wayzata) and the rest of the team doesn't get too full of themselves after knocking off the #1 ranked team, the Spuds could pull off another upset.
But the skeptic in me says Eden Prairie will win after seeing how they took Maple Grove apart yesterday.
Only time will tell.

EP has the capability to take apart anyone in the state with their offensive game - they have proved that. Unfortunately, the defense and goal tending, as star ladened and as deep as they are, have had their hands full. They have shown they are prone to breaking down for periods at a time during a game - resulting in "bunches" of goals scored against.
Moorhead kept the most offensively potent line in the state off the score sheet yesterday. And if EP doesn't strike early and often, then I see the potential for a Spud victory.
I guess I'm a bit of a sceptic. And at this point I'm hoping that the hype of this EP team hasn't caused a feeling of entitlement in their ranks.
My emotions are getting in the way of making a clear call on this one

EP leads 1-0 after 2. Moorhead playing strong D but EP is controlling play and getting the majority of chances.

EP wins 4-0 (EN). Looked a lot like that game 2 years ago.

Eh...I didn't think it was that close. There was no score in the first and it was 1-0 after 2 but EP really controlled play. At no point did I think Moorhead would win. It was really somewhat resemblant of the state game in 2009. Kinda close but it always looked like EP had it and they won comfortably in the end.

Yes I actually thought it was closer than that. As much as I love Lee and this Eagle team, I'm just being realistic.

The game was closer than 4-0 but Moorhead was out-matched. Might have been tough to come off the win against Wayzata and your goalie can only keep you in so many games.
