Nice start for Hermantown, but Monticello looked alright for the 2nd half of the first period. If they can get a goal on this PP coming out in the 2nd, they can make it a game.

 

[gphr513]

Biondi scores with two guys hanging off of him, lol

 

[gphr513]

Wow, Monticello has scored 2 straight after Hermantown went up 3-0. We got a game!

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Come on Monticello!

 

[gphr513]

Monticello getting some chances. Hermantown looks a little rattled.

Also, Hermantown's sweaters are so much better than their normal ones.

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Monticello with some good pressure

 

[gphr513]

Yep, it will be an interesting 3rd period!

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Ah dang, that might be it

 

[gphr513]

Wow, hell of a shot from the point, sick deflection. Biondi get the hat trick there?

 

[tomgilbertfan]

Big fan of those Thief River colors

 

[gphr513]

This game is definitely not as wide open as Hermantown Monticello

 

[Northerner]

Uhhh, the Evil Empire is making LN look sophomoric.

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

Oh my...that 2nd goal was sliccccckkkkk.

 

[gphr513]

Looks like the Cake Eaters are cruising.

 

[Northerner]

The skill level (or lack thereof) is apparent. Lots of turnovers, bad passes by LN. It's easy to talk while watching though I will admit.

 

[Dee Oh Cee]

Yikes...going to get really ugly. 2 on 0 shorthanded? I think that last goal to make it 6-1 was scored on a 4 on 1 rush.

 

[Northerner]

7-1

What's the worst defeat in State history? I'm curious..

They probably aren't even close to it...I'm still curious.

Didn't Besse's Benilde team win the championship game in a 9-1 game or something?

Edina's speed and transition game are killers. Some of the kids on the their bottom six lines would be star players in other programs. Walker looks as dominant as mittelstadt did last year. At this point he is just setting up team mates. We'll see what happens once they face a team that is committed to rocking them physically, but they do come in waves. Only weakness is their goalie.

I like the look of Vorlicky(RHD) as a late pick in the 2018 draft.

 

[Northerner]

I think some of the old teams used to put up ridiculous number. Like 12-2 and stuff like that. Though I might be remembering that wrong.


Oh wait:

Eveleth defeated the Kilowatts 16-0 in the first round and then St. Paul Washington 10-0 in the semifinals. Velde surrendered all 16 goals in his game. The margin of defeat remains a state record.

[Northerner]

When did they start "running time"? Is it after 5 goal lead? Only in third period? Is that new this year?

 

[BagHead]

Really glad to see Hill-Murray make it (especially by beating White Bear), but I'm afraid they're going to get embarrassingly destroyed. I hope they don't, but...

Roseville alum here, hope Hill-Murray gets destroyed.

The sophomore Laylin, from SMA, his dad played pro and now coaches Hamline men's team. He's standing out for a youngster out there.

Hockey Hub has him listed at 5'6".

Roseville alum here, hope Hill-Murray gets destroyed.

Minnetonka alum here, very much agrees with you.
