Wings' Ben Beattie with a big save.
Stars of the Day
1. Jaxon Nelson, ('00, Luverne) - besides all of the obvious tools, one completely undervalued trait of Nelson is his ability to see the ice and pass the puck...1G/1A.
2. Austin Pratt, ('99, SSM) - great combination of skill and grit...had 2G/1A.
3. Devlin McCabe, ('00, SPA) - has the ability to take over a game on every shift. Great lateral movement and knack for racking up points...2G/1A.
4. Ben Beattie, ('00, Eastview) - after giving up a soft goal early, Beattie fought back and made some game changing saves in the first half for the Wings.
Unsung Heroes
Dawson Klein ('00, Lakeville) - Leafs Defender continues to impress with his mobility, puck handling and quick release.
Andy Beran, ('00, St. Paul) - Bruins Goalie made some big stops against major Blackhawks pressure in the second half.
K'Andre Miller ('00, Minnetonka) - hard to call a player of Miller's caliber unsung, but he does so many things that help his team that don't show up on the scoresheet.
Lewis Crosby ('99, Edina) - plays with a reckless abandon, one fan described Crosby as a menace. Plays every shift as if it's his last.
Hit of the Day
Tyler Dingmann ('99, Wayzata) - had a bone crushing hit on Wayzata's Andrew Urban.
