Eden Prairie 2011 MN State High School Hockey Champions

The Eden Prairie Eagles won the longest Championship Game in MN High School Hockey history. They beat Duluth East 3-2 on a bit of a lucky own goal off of a Duluth East players skate in the 3rd Overtime. A shot squirted past the goalie into the crease; A Duluth East Player then whiffed on a chance to clear the puck allowing a diving Eden Prairie Player to get his stick on the puck which shot the puck into the goal post which rebounded right into a Duluth East players skate from which the puck deflected into the goal. Definitely a fluke goal.

Congratulations Eden Prairie!!!

Congratulations to the Eagles in winning their first State High School Hockey Championship!!!

Their 5th trip to State was the charm as they beat Moorhead 3-0 at the Xcel Energy Center. Moorhead has now lost 7 title games, which is a new record. Moorhead has never won the State Title, Poor Spuds.

Breck scored 2 empty netters to beat Warroad 7-3 to win the small school title.

No Hockey Title for the Edina Cake Eaters This Year!

The hated Edina Hornets boys hockey team beat my home town Bloomington Jefferson Jaguars in the Section Final to make it to the Minnesota State High School Hockey Tournament. Edina was last years State runner up and was seeded as the #1 team in the tournament. It was not to be for Edina however because they choked in the 1st round as they were upset by Moorhead 5-2. I think that soundly puts Eden Prairie in the favorites position, but EP went into overtime in their 1st round game. None of my favorites are in the tournament this year.
