kramer9 Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I was just watching the local sports and I thought I heard that Moorhead High beat Monticello 27 to nothing that cant be possible can it? Quote
beersong Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 It's true. They showed highlights on the Fargo news. 27-0! Monticello had 4 shots on goal! Quote
mujack Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 it's true. Just talked to someone in ND and they heard it on the news as well.. 4 players had hat tricks. Sounds like they could have scored 50 if they wanted... shots were 60 - 3 Quote
Smoggy Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 It would've been running time in the third, right? Quote
SiouxMeNow Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Someone should hook Monticello up with Wahpeton-Breckenridge - the cross river toilet bowl! Quote
sioux fan in phoenix Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Geez, I think the French put up a bigger fight against the Germans. I don't know how getting routed like this would be considered a character-building experience. Would have been fun to listen to the coach's post-game speech & the spin he used to make the kids feel better. Or, he could have told them they sucked & told them they're a disgrace to the game & school Quote
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Geez, I think the French put up a bigger fight against the Germans. The French put up a fight? I thought they saw German with a knife and waved the white flag Quote
CoteauRinkRat Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I hope the Moorhead coach switched up the lines and had the dmen playing offensive and vice versa. What a lopsided game that must have been. Quote
dagies Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I feel badly for Monticello. It's got to be evident right from the get-go you don't even belong on the ice with the other team. They should have had running time during period breaks... Quote
jnv Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 I hope the Moorhead coach switched up the lines and had the dmen playing offensive and vice versa. What a lopsided game that must have been. Anyone know? If not, that's crap!? Quote
jloos Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Anyone know? If not, that's crap!? That is something you do in squirts not high school, especially in a playoff game. Besides putting Lee and Ammerman at forward would not reducet he scoring Shots were 87-3 the 60 was the saves for the Monticello goalies. Morinville replaced some of the underclassmen on the top lines with seniors that see limited ice time in the second and third periods. Some JV players also saw ice time. Running the score up this bad (this is the worse I've ever heard of) is normally a very classless move, but this is the playoffs. Central beat B/W 16-0 in the EDC, I'm sure they didn't back off. Minnesota plays 17 min periods this year, but runs the time in the 3rd with a 8 goal lead - I hate to think what the score would have been had they not had running time. Quote
schmidtdoggydog Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Forum article and boxscore. DB in attendance, but hopefully not looking at anyone from Monticello! Spuds shoot, score, repeat in 27-0 rout By Terry Vandrovec tvandrovec@forumcomm.com The Forum - 02/25/2004 At least nobody got hurt. Not physically, anyway. Try though it did to not pulverize the feelings of a Quote
jloos Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Here is Monticello's schedule this year. OUCH! I wonder what Rodgers feels like (the team they beat). Note they lost to Kittson Central and Morris two teams that play Whap/Breck every year for some competition.

iceberg Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Rogers & Zimmerman are 2 new schools (broken off from Elk River) so their team probably isnt good. Quote

The Sicatoka Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Based on the Monticello shots, Moorhead could have skated six all night, ..... and still won by 24. Quote
BisonMav Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 From what I heard from a friend in Moorhead, is that it could have been 40-0. They passed up shots on goal from the middle of the 2nd period on, if they didn't passed the puck 3 times prior. Quote

dagies Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 It seems to me there is only so much you can do to keep from rolling up the score when the opponent is SO much worse than you are. I think if I was on the losing end of a lopsided score I'd rather get pummeled than toyed with. You can't expect Moorhead to skate to the blue line and dump it in and wait for Monti to try and skate it back out. That's too patronizing. You gotta take your lumps. Making extra passes, setting up guys that don't score much, that kind of thing seems like the right thing to do. Quote
Marty Posted February 25, 2004 Posted February 25, 2004 Boy, that would really up the goals against average. What do you do with your goalies? Just tell them to hang in there kid. Quote
MinnesotaNorthStar Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 Notice that Rogers/Zimmerman beat them 8-1 earlier in the year. Moorhead could have sent their topliners off after the second period. I don't think there was a need to keep them in the game. And shots was 87-4 (or 3). The goalies made 60 saves. Quote
MNsiouxFAN Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 To me the real winners of the Moorhead/Monticello game were the Monticello boys who continued to show up everyday for practice and gave it their all.....why? because they love the game of hockey...and isn't that what it's all about! Maybe Mn. high school hockey needs to re-evaluate cooperative teams and how they are classified . (ie A or AA.) Quote
tboneund Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 I'm going to go out a limb and say that we won't be seeing any Monticello graduates at UND any time soon. Only one word to describe that team, Pathetic...or maybe Hopeless, but I have to agree with MNsiouxFAN, kudos to the guys who continued to play for such a horrible team. Quote
Five-HoleFrenzy Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 "I'm going to go out a limb and say that we won't be seeing any Monticello graduates at UND any time soon." Why not??? Is it possible they could go to UND with the express purpose of getting a degree? Oh wait, your talking about hockey which we all know is more important than getting an education. Quote
NorthDakotaHockey Posted February 26, 2004 Posted February 26, 2004 Some 'CCO radio clown reported this morning that that game was last night. I could swear that this post has been up longer than that. Hey "threadstarter," Tommy K., you psychic. Tommy Kramer. Welcome to the board. Please regale us, on a separate thread, of your drinking daze with the ViQueens. Quote
