Friday Games To Watch:

The 6:00 PM game between Farmington and Eastview is a repeat of last weekend's semifinal game where the Tigers took a 4-1 lead into the third period and held on to win 5-4.  Farmington's offensive power overwhelmed the Lightning defense in the first half of that game.  Eastview found their offense late in the game.  It will be interesting to see if the two teams have adjusted their play.

The second game played at 6:15 PM between Duluth East and Delano should match two teams that will feature some strong offensive players in the Hounds' Ash Altmann and Delano's Ben Meyers.  Delano will test Duluth East's strength in the coming season.  Though the Hounds made it to the state last season, their struggled through the last few weeks of regular season.

Saturday's Games to Watch:

In the 10:15 AM game, Farmington and Duluth East tangle.  This game will be a test of strength between Northern Minnesota hockey and Southern Minnesota hockey.  If Farmington matches their performance from last week, Southern Minnesota Hockey prevails.

At 2:45 PM, SPA and Rosemount will play each other in a game where younger talent will have opportunities to show what they can do.  The SPA "ponies" led by ninth grader to be Devin Mccabe will tangle with a senior line led by Lukas Gillett letting Charlie Monn have his chances.

Elk River and Holy Family play the 7:00 PM game.  This a game between two talented teams, all a fan needs to do is settle in and watch.  Should be the best game Saturday.
