With witto Woso going to cwass a, it really doesn't matter much who they play.
Hopefully others will follow the Rams lead and we can have an all Metro State Hockey Tournament the way it should be.
Eliminate the entitlement sections and make teams play real competition to get to The Holy City.

It was expensive and time consuming but Eye miss it. Winters are a lot longer without a meaningful hockey game to go to. By meaningful, Eye' ll take a game that my child is playing in to be more meaningful than the Wild vs Vancouver in January or da Gophers vs Penn State.
If Eye had to do it all over again, I would.
Basketball is cheaper but not as good a sport to watch and is just as time consuming and travel is the same.
Keep em skating. You will never miss the money.

Keep'em skating? Wtf are you talking about Willis?
A sport is a sport. As far as travel goes no comparison with Hockey vs Basketball up North.
Section 8 does not reach the tip of Twin Cities in BBall.

Hacker, I am finally getting a taste of that wine or Daniels you had to give up.
With my boy one of the youngest in mites, he said, "I hope we don't have to play the Green team (all the older, bigger, faster kids) in the first game."
He scored two goals his first shift: 1. knocking in a loose puck after passing to start the play; 2. from behind the net passing to the crease and off a defender.
By the second period, it was: team that passes the puck with 11 ... and team of superstars with zero.
Best third line guys in town!

Maybe someday he can get one in March in The Holy City. Have fun and enjoy it while it lasts. It goes by incredibly fast.

Well the season is underway. Lots of teams have played games. Eye see some Flannel Land teams came down to the great Metro area and played some games hoping to repeat the fluke of last seasons tournament. That wont happen again for 30 years.
The great Metro area will restore the proper order this year.
