Was he not something like 4G 4A +7 for the tournament? Sounds like a Captain stat line

Me

Based on independent (I.e. mine) observations. the games will tell the story.

No surprise. Shanley is solid. But teams from EDC #3E seed and below in my opinion are not real strong relative to years past. #1W and #2W are more likely than not to win their state tournament first round games.

ONLY (and I mean only) league using goal judges is HS hockey. They create more problems than they solve; assuming of course that the on ice officials get to their proper position to make the goal line calls. And with 4 officials on the ice there is no excuse for not getting to position.

And an experienced official friend who was watching said all three waved off goals were the right call. what is not the right call was by the DL parents who “came at” the refs after the game. I was not there to substantiate the report but if it is even partially close to reality I call “foul” on the parents.

By losing BIS CHS has to make it to state through the back door of the WDA tournament would get BIS CHS the #3 West or #4 West seed, thus drawing #2 East (likely GF RRHS) or the #1 East (likely GF Central). I don’t see how this would make BIS CHS happy.

Who cares? GF has the two best boys teams in the state already, both of whom are in the upper echelon of school organized HS hockey in the country. That’s pretty cool by itself. and GF has a “United” team in the girls side.

Let’s not get carried away. Miami is greatly improved but not at Penrose caliber. but, putting down some money on a long shot might be worth the entertainment value.

#19 Grimes is lesser skilled

UND did not directly develop any of that, except the Medical School, but your assessment is otherwise 100%

The on ice officials know who dives, but having a “list” I easier than seeing it live on ice level. y’all don’t really understand officiating ice hockey other than what y’all want for your favorite team.

Super dumb to do 3v3 in youth hockey.

Dickinson youth hockey has good governance by good people with a good director.
