[HIGH SCHOOL GOALIES]

if you were at the championship game last year with south and central, you would have seen some amazing saves from McLean. You will see even more this weekend. Hands down, even when he had two knee scopes last year, ankle sprain this year, and other problems, still blows everyone out of the water. Watch him this weekend., you will see. South has some good goalie depth.

Ben is an excellent goalie. I do not however agree that he blows everybody else out of the water. There are a number of good goalies in the state this year. One thing that Ben has going for him is supporting cast. Their first 4 d are as good as anybodies in the state and of course we know how good the rest of the forwards are by who got selected to the EDC tourn. team. When you are arguing who is the best in the state you better consider their supporting cast.

You are all a bunch of idiots.  How can u say the refs gave them the games when RR had baout 4 penaltes in the last 10 min.  RR had as many or close to as many as Fargo North did.  The game should have never been this way had it not been for Welk getting lucky on almost everysave he made.  And also RR should have never been playing against North had the refs not lost the game for them the noght before.

I find it very interesting that you cannot tell the difference between a good save and a lucky save when you have family member that is also a goalie. Maybe all of his saves are "lucky" also.

Thanks for the info Fushie.  I did see Mike walking around the tournament a couple of times, talking with the coaches and what not.

If they truely want the best officials at the state tournament that means that Laducer will not be there!

My understanding is that Laducer is working the state. All teams beware especially if you are playing RR.

That is really good to hear. People are starting to do something about it. Ladoucer simple sucks and should not be allowed to refee again. That is good to hear that you are siding with me on this one. I think the people that disagree with use is the RR parents of kids on the team and family or former RR players. Here is something funny...Well during the last game of the season RR vs GPR someone yelled out "Hay Ladoucer have another Taco in the Bag" and he acknowledged the guy. For a game of having 2nd place online you would think he would be more into the game and not even notice anyone yelling at him.

I find it really funny that you people can find a way to blame the refs for every game that your team loses. That really shows how much you know about hockey! Second, I know Laduceur and he is a real good guy, just because he acknowledged sombody at a game doesnt mean he is not "into the game". All of you guys should look at the games your teams are losing and realize maybe it is somthing they are doing wrong rather than being a coward and blaming it all on the refs. Last thing is all you guys are whining because the refs supposedly wanted RR to beat north in EDC and your saying they called all these penalties on North which lost them the game, the wierd thing about that is that RR only scored one power play goal which would mean the game woulda been tied up and giving RR all the momentum going into OT, it woulda ended the same way as it did. so find somthing to worth while to whine about!

I was at the RR/North game and the refes sure gave the game to RR. They called a bunch of interferences that weren't even close to one enorder to get RR into the game and the win. Typical refees for a gf game. Pretty sad when it was so obvious that was happening. I know most of you one hear won't agree with me because you are prolly from Forks. I have seen this for years now. I think during tourny's the west should come here to refee and the east should go there. Just my thoughts..

I was also at the games yesterday. I don't understand why they allow refs to

do games involving teams from the cities they are from. The FN/RR game was a perfect example. I know most of the GF RR people probably will not agree with this - but FN was robbed of winning that game by one GF ref . I sat with fans from all of the different teams at EDC as well as a couple of officials and we were all appauled by the way he took over with 8 minutes left in the game. The calls he made were all very questionable - don't decide a game by these type of calls.

Let the boys decide the game.
