Wilbur

Schmaltz should have just laid there for five minutes and acted hurt.....ohh thats not classy?

His oldest brother was in Williston, then Grafton. Next brother was a century guy. And he's at Bismarck high.

1-0.....Spooner.....what a shot.

Hopefully we see a good game. Hopefully bussing around town for three days and hoteling it doesn't catch up with the Demons. I'm picking Central to win the game though. Puck dropped.

Never thought I'd say it.....two Troy Stecher mistakes, two Duluth goals. Game of mistakes I guess. Good period otherwise though. Its turning into a swim meet a bit though with Duluth falling a lot.

Will be interesting to see how Central's d core handles Bismarck's top line. Johnson is a great defenseman, but that top line for Bismarck might be the best line in the state. I'll pick Central to win 3-2 in a great final.

I'm still waiting for Faragher to give up those softies against UND.....

Central wins 4-1. With two empty net goals at the end. Two best teams playing in the finals, should be a good one.

I'm going to check on the tournament being moved to Fargo next year.....Central or Red River kids getting on a bus and traveling for a tournament....no sir.

2-1 Central. Not sure why they are reviewing. Looks like a good goal.

Quiet.....quiet......

1-1 after two. Its been all Central, with Minot's goaltender playing extremely well.

Sioux 11 in the pairwise right now.

1-0 Minot after the first period. Central buzzing the Minot end, but Minot got out of the period and will start the second on the power play. Bismarck 7, West Fargo 1.......one west team in the final.

Great performance on the road. Weathered in the first period, then took control in the second and third period. That Zane can show up any time.

And I think LaDue is going to get tossed.....

What? You can't take a run at a guys head? What?

These linesmen have struggled on the icing calls tonight.....the defenseman has to try to play the puck.

And now its 6-0. Looking like run time in the third period in this one.

3-0 Bismarck. Half way through. Make that 4-0 Bismarck. Two 3-5 short handed goals from Bismarck.

Yikes defensive end. If Mitch wants to stay in the lineup he needs to be stronger on the wall.

Keaton Thompson learned a lesson there. Flat footed and puck watching is no way to go through life son....

2-0 Bismarck after the first period.

Whatever they are doing in EGF to promote youth development in hockey is working. We normally played EGF pretty close at the youth levels and even into high school, but now they are just on another planet. Guess it helps to have names like Poolman and Eades suiting up for you at the high school level. But like SiouxScore mentioned, the youth levels in EGF are having success as well.

That would be a battle with Moorhead, Roseau, and Warroad battling it out in 8AA to go to the state tournament.
