Make sure to text him when my high school alma-mater wipes the floor with his team in the section tourny.

They're not even good enough to be on my alma mater's schedule...don't want to hurt the SOS too bad. This isn't the BCS...

They aren't on mine's schedule either, but they're in the same section, so a game to get to the X is a possibility.

I was impressed with the SOS of RW this year (for an A school), they have Holy Angels x2, Mahtomedi, Hermantown, Breck, Totino Grace, South St. Paul, Lourdes, Fergus Falls and Orono. The only real cupcakes are the weak conference teams and some weaker AA non-conference games.

You're taking this internet argument way too seriously.

To be honest, I'm rather happy that the Central is no longer Detroit & Four Other Teams. It makes the games and the race for the division title more interesting.

I should've thrown an extra smiley on there, I wasn't really worked up about it, I just like making fun of Wings fans.

I was surprised to see that Mayo plays Red Wing tomorrow night. Of course, since it's Mayo, we fall more under the "weaker AA non-conference" category.

We have no possibility to play them since we're not in the same class.

We get Totino x2, Hill-Murray, Moorhead, Edina, CDH, Shattuck, and Holy Angels. Plus, Christmas tourney is Jefferson, Centennial, Elk River, Maple Grove, Moorhead, Wayzata, and Woodbury. Hill-Murray and Moorhead games will be on FSN HS Hockey Night. Hill game is next Tuesday at 8.

Yeah, I was specifically referring to them and Tartan as "weaker AA non-conference"

You're supposed to have a brutal schedule when you're one of the best teams in AA.
Is the Christmas tourney Schwan Cup Gold?

That's why I said it's not the BCS...

Not sure, but it appears to be at the Rec Center (BSM's home rink...OK, SLP's too, but we have more banners hanging ).

The "Mild" have John Scott. Enough said.

Sadly, it's not looking good for him once the Wild get healthy... (Link)

The Wild hopes to get Zidlicky and Hnidy back Tuesday, but Richards said there's a very good chance Jaime Sifers will be recalled again for Wednesday's game.

Richards likes Sifers a lot. He competes and is mobile. If he comes back and continues to play well, it could affect John Scott's position on the depth chart. The problem is if you're going to throw a 6-8 defenseman who can fight on waivers, he'll likely be claimed.

We seriously just went from NHL to high school hockey talk? I don't think we ever talk about college hockey anymore...

Its Minnesota high school hockey. You wouldn't understand. And see bb_dl's post in the WI series thread for why we don't talk about college hockey

I love MN high school hockey! It pretty much rocks.

I give myself points for knowing the current subject of the thread.

"You mean, John Scott could potentially be picked up by...?"

*horrified gasp*

"Yes - a southern expansion team."

Pretty sad isn't it. HS hockey? You don't see me posting about honey baked ham on this forum do you?

As far as the institution's team.
If they can't get the opponents shots on goal under control, there is more than a few teams, even from the bottom of the league which will eat their lunch.
We should have been more ready to play imho.
to those who actually went, how did they come out, especially in game two, did it appear they were flat or just typically bad?
Looking forward to GLI, I'd like to dream that TECH could at least play them equal. there will be a lot of pro scouts there watching.

Honey-baked ham is great. Add a ring of pineapple on it, and it's better!

The best part of a honey-baked ham is the sweet juice/syrupy stuff that ends up accumulating at the end. Scoop some of that on a sandwich with the ham and a bit of cheese, mmmm heavenly.
