OT: MN High School Hockey Thread

[llamapalooza]

Lakeville is pretty dominant. Really impressive defensive structure for a high school team.

Not high school tourney related but if you're looking for something to watch during intermission:

Stream for MIAC championship game between Hamline and St. Marys. 2-2 going into the third period, winner goes to the Div. 3 tournament on the national stage.

You're allowed to get a little excited, PBP guy

 

[MuckOG]

Congrats to Lakeville North...what an awesome season.

And hats off to Duluth East.

How did they not call the cross check after the goal my gosh.

Yep. That was pathetic. East should have had another PP for that.

 

[gphr513]

Congrats, to Lakeville North!

Hell of a season.

 

[Paul Bunyan]

Both the teams I wanted to win lost, just like last year.

Oh well, congrats to the winners and another great tourney in the books.

Oh Hermantown, always the bridesmaid but never the bride.

I stand by what KFAN was discussing before the A game this morning; Hermantown needs to stop hiding behind the "we only have 35 kids who try out for the team and going to AA would mean we wouldn't go to the tournament every year." This was an actual quote the StarTrib guy had from them during the Q&A session when Brandon Miliski was asking if the media darling for Hermantown has finally worn off. The whole point of the tournament is for it to be actually, you know, hard to even get to it.

And the AA was amazing. Congrats to Lakeville North and Duluth East on great runs. Duluth East's coach spoke very true words early this morning as well when he got on the high horse about kids leaving HS early to play Juniors.

There we go.

I was walking into the east entrance for the AA championship game and guess who walked right by me...Bruce Plante with his wife. Looked like his damn dog died. 6 runners up finishes...that's just harsh.

 

[MuckOG]

Are Bruce Plante and Derek Plante related?

Absolutely awful, I can't even imagine six in a row, let alone one.

My thoughts exactly. I live one city over from Lakeville. I have a couple of friends who live in Lakeville. I was certainly pulling for them.

That kid from Lakeville played the hockey-hair God part perfectly...

 

[BigT2002]

There we go.

We're the statements about juniors in the paper? If so do you have a link or could you summarize it?
