hey fellas,<br><br>just wanted to let you know that you have 3 former minnesotans living down in south carolina now, missing our first state tourney in quite sometime. I have some friends taping the games back north and i can't wait to see them! just wanted to thank you for the updates and message board, it has certainly helped this hockey nut living down south! <p></p><i></i>

[Larch15]

Same goes from Florida <p></p><i></i>

[scpuckfan]

i've been watching in pictures on the webcam at:<br><br>gopherpucklive.com/stuff_webcam.htm<br><br>currently frozen in the corner <p></p><i></i>

[Just Call Me Puck]

End of 1st period. 0-0. Centennial has 1:45 remaining on powerplay. <p></p><i></i>

[RinkRat10506]

Centennial and Holy Angels are tied 0-0 after first period. Centennial will start the second period with some of a power play left. <p></p><i></i>

[MN Hockey Dude]

How could they call that a penalty? If they really wanted to call Hillen for interference than they should've taken the Centennial player for hooking as well. I think that is a teribble call. I really hope it doesn't end up costing AHA a goal. <p></p><i></i>

[joe lulic]

No score. Centennial ended the period on the power play with over a minute to carry over . Not muck goin on ..yet. <p></p><i></i>

[joe lulic]

Brutal. I think these refs try to be too good sometimes. We want to watch the kids play.. not the refs. <p></p><i></i>

[scheids316]

Horrible call. Just brutal. <br><br>I guess the refs expect Hillen to ignite his super powers and leap over the goalie to avoid contact, all while being hooked. <p></p><i></i>

[Hilltopper9]

Thanks guys. Keep 'em coming. Some of us have to work and can't watch. (We can just sneak peaks on the message boards). <p></p><i></i>

[SLP Coach]

Still no score with about 9 mins to play in the 2nd period. Centennial has had more scoring chances and seems to be controlling play but, just a little more than AHA does. <br><br>Centennial has won every faceoff so far.<br><br>Too bad I have to go back to work and can't finish watching. <p></p><i></i>

[BDPP]

AHA's Smith just made a BIG save...<br>It was a HORRIBLE call on Hillen to end the 2nd, can't penalize a player for taking the puck hard to the net while getting hooked... <p></p><i></i>

[Just Call Me Puck]

About six minutes remain in second. Still no score. <p></p><i></i>

[elliott70]

You have to avoid the goalie unless you are driven into him by the defender.<br>Hillen hit the goal tender it is a penalty.<br>Unless he ws driven into by the defender having his stick on him - then you have a hook.<br>If REFS don't call the stick work then you get the penalty for running into the goalie.<br>I would have called the hook. <p></p><i></i>

[goldy313]

Taylor fans on an open net at 2:10<br>Stars starting to come alive at the end of the period, they start the 3rd on the power play. still 0-0<br><br>shots 13-11 for Centennial, thats for the game, not the period <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub33.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUser ... oldy313</A> at: 3/11/04 1:18 pm<br></i>

[Just Call Me Puck]

End of second period. 0-0. AHA will have about 1:45 remaining on power play. <p></p><i></i>

[RinkRat10506]

Good game so far, alot of physical tight play. Can't wait for 3rd period. <p></p><i></i>

[MN Hockey Dude]

Good game so far. Both goalies are playing very well. Both teams are still playing conservative defense by leaving 3 guys back. 3rd period should be a good one. <p></p><i></i>

[SLP Coach]

For a team that has score over 250 goals in the season, Centennial sure is not putting on the offensive pressure. 13 shots over 36 minutes. About 1 shot every 3 minutes. <br><br>What do you think they'll do in the 3rd period?<br>Will Centennial start to pull up that 3rd forward and go for some sustained offensive drives?<br>Or will both teams hang back and wait to capitolize on a mistake? <p></p><i></i>

[Eagles93]

WOW. Unbelievable save. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... ns/eek.gif ALT=":eek"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>And a goal!<br><br>1-0 Centennial. <p></p><i></i>

[Just Call Me Puck]

1-0 Centennial. 6 mins left in third. <p></p><i></i>

[SLP Coach]

still 1-0 Centennial with <br>2:20 left in the game<br> <p></p><i></i>

[SLP Coach]

Face-offs <br>43-16<br>in centennials favor<br><br>gotta make a difference when AHA can't get the puck back to Hillen or Hummel in their O-Zone <p></p><i></i>

[Just Call Me Puck]

Centennial wins 2-0 with empty-netter. <p></p><i></i>
