Kind of a sloppy game IMO. Tons of turnovers and guys out of position.
Making it entertaining however.

Mahtomedi just won’t go away will they.
Tied it. Incredible staying power from Mahtomedi. Drage with the hat trick. Has that ever happened before 2 hat tricks in the championship game?
Awesome game! Warroad does look tired. A lot of desperation dumps.
Nice job Zephyrs! Playing from behind all game against a team that hadn’t lost all season. Warroad may have more talent but Mahtomedi played with more grit.
What a game. Zephyrs really outlasted Warroad. The player who had the disallowed goal scores the winner.
Happy for the Maht kids. Our town is going crazy! Really good group of kids too.
Great game, I was hoping they would lose a game this year. So maybe you guys have already discussed it but what gives with Warroad being called the warriors yet, and other communities like Burnsville dumped the Braves right away??

BOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Not sure. If you ever have a chance to go to a game in warroad, I suggest you do. Unless the right Karen becomes mayor or something, that town is not changing a thing. Or maybe the mnhsl will step in. Sure hope not!
Fun win … we knew a few kids on the team from when they were young boys. Still chat with their parents when we cross paths with them around town.
Tonight is a much tougher cheer, a good friend of my wife’s son is skating for the Hornets (who ever calls them that? ).
Possible the native population in the Warroad area supports or is not making it an issue.
When UND (yah I know college) had to drop the Fighting Sioux moniker, it occurred despite the largest local Lakota tribe voicing full approval and both Sioux tribes approving the name in the late 60s. The state of ND voted to remove the name in 2012 referendum during all the NCAA hoopla. Fargo gets some NCAA hockey tourney games because Engelstad Arena likely still has all those Sioux warrior heads stamped into the marble floor and cherry wood seat arm rests. Florida Seminoles are exempt because the Seminole nation fully promotes the use of the name (may be some $$ in that too ??).
The Warrior name could certainly remain even if the logo was forced out.

Fargo gets to host NCAA regionals because the NCAA requires those games to be at a neutral site. UND is the “host” school when it is in Fargo or Sioux Falls. To my knowledge, the only two schools putting in a bid every year to host an NCAA regional are North Dakota and Penn State. Years ago, schools were permitted to host at their own facility. The NCAA did away with that about 10 years ago now.
Engelstadt Arena still has all those native logos in and outside the building. The bronze statue of Sitting Bull is also still outside the main entrance.

Those boys never gave up, they worked so hard and earned that win!
Quite the palace (Englestad) vs. the old place I knew. Long time ago a close friend was a top Sioux skater. We would drive to GF and watch him play once or twice a year. The difference 30++ years or so makes ?? Back then we picked ’em up after the game drove to the Ramada and sat and drank with quite a few of the opposing team players until 2 or 3AM. They all played the next night (well actually later that day).
Games starting at 6, 7, 8, and 9 pm.
Let’s see…one game on the TV, one on the laptop, one on my phone and maybe one on an old phone? I’m set!!
Looks like alot of open seats in the lower bowl..
Can’t imagine what the upper bowl looks likes..
Tickets were going for what????
LOL!!
Anyone remember George Pelawa?
Not sure why I’m bringing him up…but his name just popped into my mind.
I remember the front page of the Star/Trib sports page the day after he died..
I really don’t care who wins this game. Both teams look so big & fast for high school kids. Times are changing.
Tonka up 1-0 on a PP goal.
The Lake Conference will have 4 class AA state titles in the last 6 years after this is over. That is one freaking tough conference.
Double clank off the posts. Tough deal for Edina.
Congrats to Tonka.

He was a beast. First round draft choice from Bemidji.
Great to see communities come together to achieve great things. Chaska, Chanhassen, Orono, Mound, and Minnetonka putting their differences aside and combining to bring home a state chip. #minnesotaskippers
