The camp has 8 teams of 20 players. One team is all 90s birth year. Each team will play 4 games. On sunday they will play based on seed. <p></p><i></i>

At $175 per player, that is some good income. <p></p><i></i>

Pokecheck - are you saying that one team has 20 players that were born in 1990. That you make them all either Bantam eligible or Sophomores in HS.<br><br>That just does not sound right - does it? <p></p><i></i>

The only thing that makes sense to me is if that would be like a prospect team. They could have them sign, but that doesnt necisarilly mean that they have to play that year, just their rights go to that team if and when they play junior hockey in the NAHL. <p></p><i></i>

The reason that they were there is because Andy Murray's son plays on that team. That team is the 90 Minnesota Blades team. None of them are there becasue they want to make the team it is just experience for them. <p></p><i></i>

I've found out that the 90s team is owner Andy Muarry's son's team (mostly Shattuck players also Jordan Schroeder from St Thomas Acadamy). They beat the Blue team on Friday and tied the Blue team on Sunday. <p></p><i></i>

I spoke to one of the guys that was running the tryouts, and asked him about the '90 team... his response was that they were "Andy's team" and that the kids on the other teams were getting really frustrated with their stickwork. I guess everybody was told to keep it clean, and for the most part, everybody but the 90 team was. I wouldn't suppose that anybody that really wants to make the team would risk a retaliation against one of "Andy's kids."<br><br>I also spoke with a parent that had a son trying out, and he told me the cost was $100. <p></p><i></i>

Is this their only tryout camp with so many players, or are they looking at narrowing it down for a final camp? <p></p><i></i>

The second camp in July will consist of 6 teams playing Thursday, Friday and Saturday. On Sunday, the roster will be reduced to 2 final "all-star" teams. <p></p><i></i>

i todly agree i watch a game and one guy got a penalty on the blue team and they didnt give penaltys even but he only got the penalty cause he was getting very frusterated <br>he got a penalty cause he retalieted cause the 90 kid was totally hacking and holding and just toldally interfering with the game play <br> <p></p><i></i>

I heard that the Gaulrapp twins made the team. Other names are Drew Walters, Brennan Poderzay, JP Peprich, Alex Coles, Jamie Ruff, Sean Murphy, CJ Wilms, Jason Wiley, Kevin Wright, Glenn Ylitalo,Ryan Guentzel, Brian Schack, Mike Montgomery ............ sorry thats all I can remember. <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p074.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... kecheck</A> at: 7/25/05 12:56 pm<br></i>

pokecheck, do you know the web site which publishes the final roster? thanks. <p></p><i></i>

So far the list is not on the web. They did publish it in the Owatonna Newspaper but I don't have a subscription and can't read the online article. <p></p><i></i>

ok...the roster will surface eventually. <p></p><i></i>

the roster has to be coming out soon if its not already out and i just cant find it ive seen the list of kids that are tender but looking for the whole roster hopefully somoene can help me out <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p074.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... terfry9</A> at: 8/15/05 4:06 pm<br></i>

This is the first time I have seen this thread so this is a bit late, but let me getthis right. Guys trying out for a Junior "A" team were having a tuff time because a team of 15 year olds were playing to rough. Wow, this team sounds like it has a good future. <p></p><i></i>

Partial list from there website<br><br><!--EZCODE AUTOLINK START--><a href="http://www.smnexpress.com/players.htm"> ... <!--EZCODE AUTOLINK END--> <p></p><i></i>

Read carefully. It wasn't that the 15 year olds being "too rough" that was the problem. the problem is that the kids were told to keep it clean, but the 15-yo team, including the team owner's son, weren't doing that, and weren't getting called, but anyone who got rough with the 15yo team was getting penalized. <p></p><i></i>

Does anyone know the full roster yet? ...not just the players that were tendered before the last camp? <p></p><i></i>

bighair. i had the pleasure of watching jason wiley play while visiting relatives in ontario earlier this year. he is a recently tendered player for the express and should be a good fit. the owners and coaches are putting together a formable team. final rosters should be posted soon. check their web page. <p></p><i></i>

The only schedule I could find was on the NAHL website...does anyone know when they have pre-season games? I am super excited to watch my bros!!! <p></p><i></i>

They scrimmage the Twin Cities Northern Lights at home Sept 13 and 21 at 7:05 pm<br><br>It looks like the roster is :<br>F-Joel Gaulrapp, F-James Gaulrapp, F-Sean Murphy,<br>F-Quinn Ellingson, F-Jamie Ruff, F-Alex Coles,<br>F- JP Peprich, F-Ryan Guentzel, F-Drew Walters, <br>F-CJ Wilms, F-Jason Wiley, F-Glenn Ylitalo,<br>F-Mike Montgomery, F-Jesse Junkermeir, F-Josh Carlson,<br><br>D-Brian Schack, D-Peter Kavaya, D-Mark Merek, <br>D-Jeff Carlson, D-Kevin Wright, D-Chris Barth, <br>D-Arthur Bidwell, D-Christopher Giebe, <br><br>G-Brennan Poderzay, G-Andrew Ross,<br> <p></p><i></i>

They are looking good so far! They have a lot of strong players. They beat Twin Cities Northern Lights 5-2 tonight! <p></p><i></i>

bighair10 - <br><br>I apologize if your post contained sarcasm - I just couldn't tell. However, just in case you were serious about the team looking strong, a 5-2 win over a Junior "B" team does not sound impressive to me. <br><br>I'm hoping for the best for the Southern MN team and I like Pat Cullen - but I think you see my point. <p></p><i></i>

They also beat F/M Jet's 5-2 Sat. night <p></p><i></i>
