Just checked the DCS computer and it spit out these scores for the games this weekend

Ice Hawks vs Aces 8-2 and 5-2

Northern Lights vs Lakers 2-1(OT), 2-5, 3-4

Mustangs vs Owls 3-4(OT), 5-1, and 0-3

Lumberjacks vs Crusaders 2-3, 8-1, 5-2

So Round two would have the Lakers play the Hawks and the Owls playing the Lumberjacks. Those series would be great!!! I will congratulate my computer after this weekend...THE STAR!!!

Congratulations to the Jacks. After winning a solid match in Hudson, they showed how much they wanted it Saturday night.

Owlstar, forget the computer, you'd have better odds rolling your D & D dice...

I'd say better luck next year, but I wouldnt mean it.

p.s. where was your MVP when you needed Him?
should've been icehawk #26.

Actually should have been Ice Hawk #1. Simon Eriksson was huge for the Ice Hawks. His #'s prove it and when you see that those #'s were against the top half teams in the league it makes it more impressive. He didn't have games against the Wildcats and such to pad his stats. In fact there was a game against the Wildcats where he did not play the last 9min of the game and therefore did not get credit for the shutout or the win in that game. Which would have placed him tied for the lead in Shutouts and gave him one more win. But whatever it doesn't matter one way or another. Voting is over and it's a joke anyway.

You are crazy..He isn't even in Cafrelli's League. And I know every coach I have talked to voted for Cafrelli. And that was half of em.

If you want to know the truth, the Hawks could have had an MVP but they spread it around which is good for the team having many players in the top of the scoring but it hurts picking an MVP.

Cafrelli ended the regular season the hottest goalie in the league. Heck two of his final three losses were 1-0. Well actually 2-0 in one with an empty netter. If you talk to anyone that was at the Owls/Lumberjack game last month he put on the best goalie performance of the season bar none!!!!

he ended the season losing to Erickson... the lumberhacks gave up after losing their last game to the hawks. heck, Cafrelli wasnt even as good as Grove... dont believe half the coaches in this league cause half the coaches couldnt coach their way out of a plastic see-through baggie with the ziplock wide open.. and I would talk to someone at the owls/lumberjacks game, but i cant understand Hick... would you translate for us?

abde abde abdeeeeee thats all druky!

btw your play by play for the Lumberhacks and crusaders was well received within the Deaf community great job!

Cafrelli went 0 - 6 vs the Hawks.

Ericsonn didn't play a team once the Hawks were above a team in the standings. So several of the coaches never even saw him play.

Is Cafrelli a good goalie? Not even up for debate. Was he worthy of the MVP? Doubtful.

How about Raynee? Without him, the Aces would likely have half the wins they did get.

Nick Cafrelli is a deserving MVP. And Michael Raynee was a good second.

Erickson is a good goaltender but did not receive MVP votes.

I don't understand the mentality of attacking your own league.

CIR, how would you know if Erricson is a good goalie? Did he Ever play against your precious Crusaders?

Probably not because I'm pretty sure the Crusaders have never been above the Ice Hawks in the league standings, EVER!

Actually he had a 20 save shut out on November 11th, 2009.

And my 2 cents on the MVP. Cafrelli started 43 of his teams 50 games. He was tops in almost all the goaltending categories. And if you look at his stats, there were games where he had 50 saves and still got the loss. If you take him off the Owls, they were no where near the same team. If you took Ericcson off the Hawks, I'm not sure there was such a drop off from him to Yaggy or Hingtgen.

When u play that many games, of course you're going to see a lot of shots and saves, that's why you need to look at save %. The wildcats goalies saw lots of shots, that certainly didn't make them MVP's.

Erricson was a much better goalie then Hintgen and Yaggy, again, look at the save % and consider that most of Erricson's games are against the top 5 teams.

Last year's pick was a joke Puckdog? It was a unanimous choice. What other MJ alum has been more successful this year in Tier II and committed to one of the top DI programs in the country?

NAHH-

Here's a quick question... Lets say Ryan Miller and Martin Brodeur have similiar stats at the end of a season. But what if Ryan Miller starts 41 games in the NHL but only plays against the top 6 teams from his conference. Does that make him more deserving of the Vezina than Martin Brodeur who played 75 games against everyone???

My point was the quality of shots they're facing.

Let's look at this from the flipside. If I strap on the pads and only play against the wildcats and I get 6 wins with a great shot % because they suck, do I deserve the MVP because I'm a better goalie, according to my stats?

face it nahh, cafrelli was a deserving MVP, he got the majority of the votes, simple as that. He was the Mn. Owls, pretty easy to see, if you took off your red colored glasses you'd recognize it, just like everybody else has

Your not getting my point. Cafrelli was THE MAN for his team. Ericcson split time (played half the games). So for me, I think playing all 3 games, every weekend instead of playing 1 game a weekend and resting til the next tough one is a little harder. Consistently EVERY night he was in the net putting up 30-40-50 saves. That is why he got my vote for MVP and I'm sure that is why he got 5 other coaching staffs votes.

Cafrelli was very valuable to his team and probably deserved the MVP. As far as Eriksson goes I would have to say that he was a huge piece of the Ice Hawks success and that they would not be where they are without him as between injuries and other things the rest of the Hawks goaltending staff was shaky and/or unhealthy most of the year.....however I think that if you look at the Hawks their MVP was the captain Justin Phelps. This team is not the same team without him on the ice. He doesn't put up the most points but he plays the game with a fire that nobody else in the league can match and that sparks his team. To comment on last year's MVP...He was a very good player on a poor team most of the year which made him stand out even more. He is a good player and will get better. It's too bad his dad is what he is. And probably could be argued that he was the MVP since look at what happened to that team this year without him. Won 2 games legitimately all year long. Don't remember their record last year exactly but I think they won at least like 4 times that many. As far as the DI comittment goes I haven't heard anything. I heard that North Dakota was watching him.......but North Dakota is also at the Xcel this weekend watching 16 teams worth of kids!!! And if someone says verbal comittment I'll slap them........That's about as solid as a wet ****. I could announce right now that I verbally comitt to play football at a DI school right now and it means about the same thing!! And I never even played football.

Scott Clemenson put up decent numbers for the Devils...the guy is swiss cheese in over 40 men's C...what does that say about the quality of shots Brodeur is seeing? Besides...Brodeur just needs to not play anymore...actually I'd prefer if he got ran over by the team bus
