2024-25 ND High School Hockey

[Wilbur]

Heard from some folks that Cunningham of KNOX had some harsh words for Mattern at the end of the game on his broadcast.  Didn't watch, can anyone elaborate?

He's a small angry man who wears bow ties and bought a residential property zoned commercial in Thompson, ND and complains about it but yes you bought it and YES - in THOMPSON ND!   No further questions your honor...

Per source matters was taking runs at gfrr playas at the end and exchanging words with the refs

 

But my Fargo source says gfrr was smothering him all game

 

i did find his stat line. One assist not bad considering they only got one goal

If you go to the 10:46 mark, right after RR makes it 4-1 with 2 minutes left in the game, Mattern takes one run at a RR kid and then delivers a cross check to Ulmers back and gets called for it.  Then appears to run his mouth all the way to the box.  Whoever the color guy is basically said he didn't like the hit.

Fast forward to the 10:49 mark...when I believe it is 5-1...Cunningham basically said "I dont' think Mattern made any fans tonight the way he approached this game" and the color guy started talking about the students razzing him all night.

Skimmed through the post game and didn't hear anything bad....that's about the worst I could find, which didn't seem bad at all within the context of the game.

Century looked really really good tonight until they let off the gas and it ended up 6-3.  Could see some dog fights in the first round with Minot and Century getting either DL, North, Davies, or WF. 

Those will be good games no matter which WDA and EDC teams are involved.  CHS lost to WF game one in a shootout 7-5 this season, and beat Davies 4-1 (both a long time ago, I acknolwedge).  Troy Olson should be WDA COY and potentially the state for the job he has done this season.

Didn’t look like the worst of hits 

 

Cunningham is a great play by play guy but sometimes too big of a homer

 

abyways it’s not a edc tourney without the gf teams in the final

 

a preview of a weak from now?

I agree.  His top two lines were rolling last night, and they got a good goaltending performance as well.  I wouldn't be shocked if they knocked off Minot.

I was watching the game too and he didn't say anything that was out of bounds. He is a good play by play guy in fact his first ever game he did was when my girls beat Fargo South in the opening round of state back in '13. He sounded like he had done many games before that because he was that good already. Friends with him on Facebook and he does have an opinion on a lot of things be it good or bad

The game atmosphere for CHS-Minot will be as good as it gets for ND.

Going to be as good as possible and a preview of what can be for a state tourney.

Wow what a slate of games for today

Picks

Jamestown > Bottineau     Jtown top line can roll

Legacy > Mandan     Too Much skill for mandan to overcome

Minot > Century     Too much firepower and home ice will be electric

Devils > Davies      Tendy will shine

WF > North        Mattern will Mattern

Central > RR?  could be a coin flip what a game that'll be
