[0:12] Spike is hammered down by Ali [0:17] Park. All right. [0:31] See you later. [0:59] The distance between Northfield and [1:00] Mameidi 51 nautical miles. And despite [1:03] that difference, the path seems to [1:05] always converge in one spot, downtown [1:07] St. Paul and Grand Casino Arena. For the [1:10] first time since 2018, the Northfield [1:12] Raider Raiders travel to the St. Croy [1:14] Valley Rec Center to take on the Mameidi [1:16] Zephers in a class A top 10 tilt. It's [1:19] the Mamed Eiers and the Northfield [1:21] Raiders. Coming up next on Suburban [1:23] Community Channels TV 19. Hi everybody. [1:26] A very pleasant Tuesday afternoon or [1:28] evening to you here from the St. Croy [1:30] Valley Rec Center in St. Paul. Not St. [1:33] Paul, Stillwater, Minnesota. Our camera [1:35] operators today are Ben Brandon and [1:36] Christian Stoultzman. In the truck we [1:38] have David Skyler, Dave Cast, and Joe [1:40] Sigourney. Well, on paper, a matchup [1:42] that in terms of the regular season has [1:44] not been played frequently. This the [1:46] first time since 2018 that these two [1:48] teams have played each other here at the [1:50] St. Croy Valley Rec Center and their [1:52] first time in regular season play since [1:54] 2022 in a pregame preseason tournament [1:58] at Tria Rink in St. Paul. For both [2:01] teams, it figures to be a big one. It [2:03] figures to be a good one tonight. We'll [2:05] get you into it as the evening [2:06] progresses. It's the Zephers and the [2:08] Raiders from Stillwater, Minnesota, and [2:11] the St. Croy Valley Rec Center on a [2:13] beautiful Tuesday evening in Still [2:15] Water. Puck goes back to the defensive [2:17] zone. Cody Lida will pick it up. Starts [2:20] to break out for the Zephers as they go [2:21] into the attacking zone. Braden First [2:23] has it on the right side away. First [2:25] looking for a cross. Bridger Riley [2:27] knocks it off of his stick out there in [2:28] the corner and the Raiders look to start [2:30] their breakout back the opposite side [2:32] but denied by Cody Laida at the blue [2:34] line. Turn it back over. Bridger Riley [2:36] carries into the attacking zone. He'll [2:38] try the left side. Pass through the [2:40] slot. Finds no receiver. Ashton Pumper [2:42] trying to pinch down from the blue line [2:43] to get to it. It's taken back over on [2:45] the other side by Lida for the Zephris [2:47] and he'll push it back off to the far [2:49] side. [2:50] First able to clear the zone. Pumper [2:52] gathers it back at center. trying to go [2:54] DD to his opposite partner on the far [2:56] side and Riley. This will go down the [2:58] length of the ice and icing is waved [3:00] off. Picked up by the Zephers in their [3:02] own defensive zone by Henry Sampair. [3:06] Play his first couple of years of high [3:07] school hockey for the Hill Murray [3:08] Pioneers. Did Sam Pair. He's committed [3:10] to the University of Maine in hockey [3:12] East. He'll play division one college [3:13] hockey next season. [3:16] Sam Pere looks to start the breakout for [3:18] the Zephers. Put further ahead for Blake [3:20] Lida. pass it across the crease for [3:22] Trevor Rogashesky. A shot through on and [3:24] our first save of the game is made by [3:26] Gavin Winter for the Northfield Raiders. [3:29] Back as far as center, Kale Brumle picks [3:30] it up there. He'll dump it into the zone [3:32] and Northfield will go back out in [3:34] pursuit in the early going here. 1530 to [3:36] go in this first period. Shots on goal. [3:38] One to nothing in favor of Monamita. And [3:40] no scoring so far. [3:42] Onto the far side. Jacob Peters pinning [3:46] the corner board. Zephers trying to free [3:47] it out. Kaden Gagnelius player who was [3:50] on it for Mameid but couldn't quite get [3:52] it free. Miles Kennley gathers through [3:54] center. He'll cut back into the neutral [3:56] ice now into the left side wing. Rings [3:58] it around. Looks to feed Carter Simon [4:00] behind the net. Simon able to escape [4:02] past the defense of Trevor Rogasheski. [4:04] Will cut back there. It's left for [4:07] Michael Stewart on a far side half wall. [4:10] Can be tied up there further now for [4:12] Stanford for Northfield. It's taken out [4:14] of neutralized by Mameita. He'll carry [4:16] it back in in space. Brock Gman try a [4:18] shot on goal and a save made by Gavin [4:20] Winter and another faceoff. Second of [4:22] the game upcoming here. Our goalending [4:25] match up tonight as we turn into one of [4:27] the great all-time goalenders. One of [4:29] the great all-time coaches in the state [4:30] of Minnesota, head coach Jeff Poschel [4:32] surpassed 500 career wins in the 2023 24 [4:35] season and continues to prove Monamida a [4:38] powerhouse every single year. More on [4:40] the goalies coming up next. Levi Schmidt [4:43] to start the breakout for Northfield. [4:45] goes back into the zone for Zack Sins. [4:47] He'll pick it up into the defensive [4:49] zone. Looks to restart Mameidi's [4:50] breakout. Zephres are record at 56 and2 [4:53] overall this season. 10 and2. It's very [4:56] much a spot where the Zephers are used [4:57] to being at this time of the year, but [4:59] that more a testament to their schedule [5:01] than their ability. That was off on the [5:03] far side. Play will continue for the [5:05] time being. Stick was lifted out of the [5:06] hands of Henry Weber. And the Zephris [5:09] will hold his own here. Zack S rifles [5:11] his chop through. Now the official on [5:13] the far side realizes the net is off and [5:15] will have a face off in the Northfield [5:18] defensive zone. [5:20] Starting in goal, the senior Gavin [5:22] Winter made 40 saves on 42 shots when he [5:25] played against Mameita in last year's [5:27] consolation semifinal. Four goals [5:29] allowed in two of his last three [5:31] appearances in nets. Looking to refine [5:33] that format at the end of last season. [5:35] He did have one shut out against Wasika [5:38] just three games ago for the Raiders. [5:41] Shot through to the far side. Stick [5:43] aside by Ashton Pumper. Hung back [5:45] through center. First was able to get to [5:48] it first for the Zephers. Storm will [5:50] knock it down for Northfield and tries [5:51] to clear the zone but can't. First with [5:53] it. Shot on. Saved by Winter. Loose puck [5:56] comes here to the near side for Riker [5:57] Dunar. Brings it around for Vinnie Red [5:59] Path. Had a natural hat-tick against [6:01] Orno earlier on this season. [6:05] Storm tries to cross. Picked up at [6:07] center by Red Pass into the zone for the [6:09] Zephers. Then he left back will try to [6:11] ring it around. Stopped from the skates [6:12] of Ashton Pumper and put behind the net [6:14] for Sora. Puck battle is won by Tommy [6:17] Bow to the blue line. Another shot and [6:19] another save by Gavin Winter and quickly [6:22] seven shots on goal already for the [6:25] Mameidi Zephers. Meanwhile for Mameidi [6:27] in goal it's Jackson Chzik the senior [6:30] from Mameidi. Next win for him today if [6:33] it is today will be his 10th career. [6:34] He's been the goalie of record in every [6:36] game for Mameida. that semiinal [6:39] consolation game last year against [6:40] Northfield. He too was good. 46 of 50 [6:43] saves for the Moni Zephers in the loss [6:46] to Northfield at Trio Rink last season. [6:51] Miles Kennel into the zone for [6:52] Northfield. He'll try to drop it off. [6:54] It's tied up on the near side for Dar. [6:58] Taken back over. Intercepted by Lida in [7:00] the defensive zone for Mameita. Blake [7:02] Lida looks to go further ahead for Cody [7:05] Lida into the zone. bothered there by [7:07] Sch Smith. Whether it will circle back [7:09] in the far side corner dumps in low for [7:12] Blake Lena by Simon defensively for [7:14] Northview. [7:17] First two for the Raiders and her back [7:19] as far as center will pick it up there [7:22] to the near side. Desar in the attacking [7:24] zone for Gakelius. Picks it up out of [7:27] the corner. Gakelius tries to go for the [7:28] wraparound and sends it through the blue [7:30] paint. Kenny backhands it out as far as [7:32] center. is picked up by Rummel who looks [7:34] to spring Monamidi quickly back into the [7:36] attacking zone. 1232 to go first period. [7:39] Shots on target. 6 nothing Monidi. [7:42] Zephers still pestering looking for the [7:44] first goal of the night. [7:46] Severs in the slot off the glass. Gutman [7:49] picks it up out of the corner. Shoved [7:51] off the puck there by Smith for [7:52] Northfield and intercepted by Gutman on [7:54] the near side wall. Loose puck through [7:56] the slot. Gavin Winter will hold on for [7:58] another face off here with 1213 to go [8:02] first period of play. [8:05] For a tenure coach, as long as Jeff [8:07] Poshel, there's going to be the opposite [8:08] of that. Charlie Cloud is the head coach [8:10] of the Northfield Raiders. He's in his [8:12] first season. Graduated from Northfield [8:14] in 2011 from Iowa State in 2015. It's [8:17] his first full-time season as varsity [8:19] head coach. coach. He spent the previous [8:21] nine as an assistant coach in Northfield [8:23] and currently he's a first officer for [8:25] Sun Country Airlines flying planes for [8:27] the airlines. How about that? [8:30] He'll try to keep the Raiders flying [8:32] high here in their own defensive zone [8:34] without a shot on goal so far. 1 second [8:36] was burned off the clock as a result of [8:38] the miscue [8:39] and play will continue off the faceoff [8:41] win. Ash to Pumper. as far as center. [8:45] Brock Gutterman is first to it for [8:47] Monamita. Comes all the way back out [8:48] further to neutral for Braum who tried [8:50] to get to it. And here go the Raiders [8:52] back in. Peter has Weber with him, but [8:54] offside was Weber. So he has to reset. [8:57] Goes to the far side for the attacking [9:00] zone. They will go to the corner by [9:02] Christian Whiteitman and Rumble is first [9:04] boot for Mamemita. Rumble off the far [9:06] side and board. So tie up four. One [9:08] player there. Peters takes it, brings it [9:11] around. River holds a zone for [9:13] Northfield and sends in the corner by [9:14] Christian Whiteitman. Whiteitman knocked [9:16] off the puck by Brum. [9:20] Back to the far side, Severs clears his [9:22] puck down the length of the ice and for [9:24] the first time tonight, there'll be a [9:25] faceoff in Mameidi's defensive zone with [9:29] 1126 to go in period number one. [9:35] Mamedi Zephers the seven to nothing shot [9:38] on goal advantage so far. A little [9:40] different from their last game against [9:42] the Minnitankka skippers out at Pagel. [9:45] The first period they were outshot 16 [9:46] to4 in that game. The second period [9:48] outshot 22 to four. Got closer in the [9:51] third 10 to nine they outshot. [9:55] More testament to just how difficult [9:57] this schedule is as there was no time [10:01] elapsed off the clock. So still 11:21 to [10:03] go here in period number one. No score [10:05] shots on goal. Seven to nothing. [10:08] But in terms of Mameidi, including [10:10] tonight at just three games, the [10:11] remainder of their way will be against [10:13] teams that are not ranked in either [10:15] class A or class double. [10:19] Difficult schedule for Manameidi. Why [10:21] else wouldn't it be? [10:24] Drive on that by first. Saved by Winter [10:26] with 111 left to go. Period number one. [10:28] Shots on goal are eight to nothing in [10:31] favor of Monta. [10:34] Raiders enter this one tonight in a [10:36] little bit of a winning streak. They've [10:38] won three in a row, one of which was in [10:39] overtime, one to nothing over Wasika. [10:42] Then a win at Northern Lakes on December [10:44] their 26th. They started this 2026 [10:47] portion of their schedule at 64. [10:48] Exciting win against New last time out. [10:51] Only loss in the schedule so far for [10:52] Northfield. Now dropped the game by the [10:55] people. If that's the only loss on your [10:57] schedule for a class A school, you're [10:59] doing pretty well. [11:01] Walker Sorum into the zone, dumps in the [11:03] corner. Zack Sins will pick it up there. [11:06] since tries to start the breakout. He's [11:08] tied from the corner. He'll have to [11:09] reset. 10:15 now 1049 to go. First [11:11] period of play. Eight to nothing. Shots [11:13] on goal in favor of Mamemita. Simon [11:16] gathers it to Warfield. He'll dump it [11:18] in. Chzich will stop behind the net [11:20] first to get to it. Recker Dunar. He was [11:22] unable to handle it and Benjamin had it [11:24] briefly. Picked it up out as far as [11:26] center. Tommy Bo starts to re break out. [11:29] Red pack working in. Shot saved by [11:32] Winter off the stick of Braden first and [11:34] held on to for the faceoff did Gavin [11:37] Winter. [11:39] 10:28 to go first period. Shots on goal [11:41] nine to one and now in favor of the [11:45] Maidi Zephers. [11:49] It's one of the first games today and [11:50] it's dropping the puck all across the [11:52] state of Minnesota. 40ame schedule [11:55] and this is the one we have for you [11:57] here. Surely on the draw. It's one by [12:00] Gagelius as a first shot on from Blake [12:03] Lloyd. Was a good opportunity but denied [12:05] by the goalender Gavin Winter. [12:08] Lid [12:09] start the break. Henry Sampair [12:12] bring it back off to the far side. First [12:15] on the stick was Wade Gilbertson for [12:16] Northfield but he's forced out by [12:19] bonding positioning not only exemper but [12:20] by his own man and Michael Stewart. Shot [12:23] on from Riley Turnal held in by the [12:26] Raiders. Schmidt with a shot on a save [12:28] made by Jackson Chzik as he holds on for [12:31] a face off. Now shots on goal 103 [12:35] in favor of the Modame Icefers. [12:40] It's the first of two games today [12:43] here at St. Croy Valley Rec Center in [12:46] Varsity Hockey. Still Water will be [12:48] taking on a opponent. We'll announce [12:50] that later. Not that game, but just [12:52] who's playing in case you're curious. [12:55] Here to the near side [12:59] turn it over. Riley picks it up for [13:00] Northfield on the backhanded clearing [13:02] attempt. It's taken back over by Blake [13:03] Floyd into the zone. He'll go Desar is [13:06] in with him. Shot on. Was blocked in [13:08] front by Riley. That position perfectly [13:10] for the Raiders. Gilbert to the blue [13:12] line but not out. Roashes tease up a [13:15] drive that hit nobody off the far wall. [13:17] And all the way back to the blue line it [13:19] goes. Kale Brauml [13:21] tried to hold the zone but turned it [13:22] over. It's picked enough by Stewart. [13:24] Stewart lost it at neutral. Gathered [13:26] there by Gilbertson and sent back in. [13:29] Icing is caught. [13:33] 921 to go. First period. Shots on goal. [13:36] 11 to3 in favor of Mameita. Still [13:39] looking for this game's first goal of [13:42] the night. [13:44] Now a conversation between officials as [13:46] to perhaps whether or not I was called [13:49] correctly or incorrectly. [13:51] appears as though they'll be content [13:53] with their call. There'll be a face off [13:54] to the left of Gavin Winter. [13:58] Henry Weber on the draw. The senior his [13:59] third season playing varsity hockey. [14:02] Lost the face off to the Moni Zephers [14:05] and Northfield unable to clear the zone. [14:07] Zins teed up a drive that missed the [14:09] redirection out in front. Followed up [14:10] side of the net. Will Severs fired it [14:12] just one gathered by Jacob Peters who [14:15] tried to clear the zone. Sent back [14:17] around on the ring around by Riker [14:19] Dunbach. cleared back out. Christian [14:22] Whiteitman further ahead. This goes into [14:24] Mamedai's zone and Isaac is called [14:28] again. 855 to go. First period of play. [14:32] A game early on that has not had its [14:35] flow develop yet. [14:38] Part of that perhaps due to two teams [14:40] not having played each other frequently [14:43] in regular season play, but also the [14:45] early start time, 5:00 p. am atypical [14:47] for a varsity contest during the school [14:49] week to say the very least. [14:53] Northfield faceoff win. Weber tried to [14:56] clear it around for Stewart. It's gotten [14:58] back on the near side half while his [14:59] efforts will regain possession there. [15:01] Deon O'Donnell brings it back behind for [15:04] Simon. [15:05] Simon picks it up off the glass. Knocked [15:08] down by O'Donnell there. O'Donnell goes [15:10] cross crease. Was looking for Blake [15:13] Benz. It's picked up first in the corner [15:15] by Will Severs. Taken over by the [15:17] Raiders. Whiteitman looks to bring [15:19] Peters further ahead, but the pass is [15:21] long and icing is caught. [15:27] You can see the ideas. You can see what [15:29] Northfield is trying to spring, how [15:31] they're trying to get that strategy [15:32] going, but so far hasn't quite worked [15:34] their way. [15:37] Well, Jeff Posial walk watching on his [15:40] 29th year as head coach of Madame Midi. [15:46] Face off one by Northfield. [15:48] Red Path takes it over into the corner. [15:50] They'll fight for it. Red Path has his [15:52] skate into the boards. Riley is trying [15:54] to pin him there. Players that are [15:56] fighting for it. Audrey Benjamin looking [15:58] for it. Goes back into the slot. Walker [16:00] Swarm takes it back here to the near [16:01] side for the Benjamin trying to clear [16:03] back out as far as center was able to do [16:05] so. left for Charlie Becker. Becker into [16:08] the zone now for Oliver Benjamin. [16:09] Spinning Riley. A shot in and out of the [16:11] glove and another chance from the near [16:14] side. Unable to get finished off on by [16:16] Benjamin as Chzik made a great first [16:18] save. [16:20] First goes back for Sam Pere into the [16:23] zone for Will Sever. Sever try to [16:25] feather a pass through. That's gathered [16:28] up by Benjamin. Clear back as far as [16:29] center. Cody Lida gathers sends it in on [16:32] goal towards Winter. Winter will drop it [16:34] and allows defense to start the play. [16:37] Sorum long saucer pass looking for [16:39] Philip Benjamin. Not handled cleanly. [16:41] Vinnie Red Path takes over from Moni. [16:44] Red Path was shot and a save made by [16:46] Gavin Winter. He holds on for another [16:49] faceoff. [16:50] Here was 723 to go. First period of [16:53] play. [16:56] Best chance of the night for Northfield. [17:04] Great entry into the zone. Good passes, [17:06] but that last shot just not quite where [17:09] they intended it to be. Just a little [17:11] off line. [17:17] That chance really not necessarily the [17:19] story of the game so far. A lot of this [17:20] game has been spent in the bottom eight [17:23] attacking zone. [17:25] Stewart got a pass right back from [17:27] Gilbertson. Dropped it off. Blocked [17:29] shot. Well done by Trevor Roaches and [17:32] Schmidt holds it in for Northfield at [17:33] the zone. Kennaly teed up a drive save [17:36] made by Jackson Jezik and he'll hold on [17:39] for a faceoff with 659 to go in period [17:42] number one. [17:48] Talk about the Zephr schedule so far [17:50] this year. If you look at the schedule, [17:52] who they've played independent of the [17:54] Metro East teams, you look more so at [17:56] how they started. They started two [17:58] games, both played at Centennial in [18:01] their home ranking to begin the season, [18:04] but both good results. A 6-3 win against [18:08] Centennial on their home ice [18:11] overtime loss to Bla. Not a bad place to [18:14] start the season. But then you follow [18:15] that up with a tie against Hill Murray [18:19] in the St. Croy Valley Rec Center. [18:21] That's just the kind of schedule Moni [18:22] has. Stewart into the zone. He dropped [18:25] it off to Wade Gilbertson. Gilbert has [18:27] his stick tied up higher. That loose [18:30] puck is taken advantage of. Shot in [18:32] right back. And another shot on the far [18:34] side from Chzik as into the zone went [18:37] two players, Kennley and Simon. And both [18:40] were selfless. Maybe one of the two [18:42] should have taken the shot. [18:45] Chzik back behind. He left it there for [18:48] a teammate. First player to it is [18:50] Christian Whiteitman for Northfield. [18:52] Whiteitman is tied up. Gagnelius and [18:54] Dunar on pressure creates separation for [18:56] Zack Zins to start the breakout for [18:58] Manameita. [19:00] Further ahead for Gagius. Lost a handle [19:03] into the zone. Back this puck will go as [19:06] Walker Swarm will take it. Conor Simon [19:09] looks to make the play for Northfield. [19:10] Peters with it now. Across the blue [19:12] line, but off sides is called [19:16] and a faceoff at neutral ice with 554 to [19:19] go. Period number one. [19:22] Another really good look. First the [19:25] separation that was created off of the [19:27] turnover. [19:28] Kennaly that give and go with Stewart. [19:31] Both players had a chance to shoot. Both [19:33] choose to be [19:35] unselfish in that situation. I'm sure [19:37] that coach Charlie Cloud likes that but [19:39] would prefer the puck in the back of the [19:41] net. Peters fired a drive. Storm picks [19:44] it up there. Another shot. He scores. [19:51] Rifle from the blue line. Walker Sorum [19:54] the junior picks up his second. He's got [19:56] points in three straight. And Northfield [19:59] surprisingly takes a one to nothing [20:00] lead. [20:08] A sound that stopped almost the entire [20:11] barn. [20:15] That shot from Saum [20:18] didn't appear to be redirected. Maybe a [20:20] good screen out in front, but either [20:23] way, Walker Sorum gets his second goal [20:25] of the year, his sixth point. And [20:27] Morfield has a lead. [20:30] Tommy Bow into the zone looking to [20:31] equalize for Madame. B will wrap. [20:34] Sampair at the blue line. Blocked well. [20:37] Perfect position by Philip Benjamin. Out [20:40] of the corner, taken there first. So [20:43] we'll see the Sampair a shot through [20:46] brings all the way back to the near side [20:48] and it's far back out of center. Henry [20:50] Sampair looking to circle sent back in [20:54] but this time it's into the into the [20:57] pimp pen here at St. Croy Valley Rec [21:00] Center. Hit something and it'll be [21:03] another face off that will result. [21:06] Walker Storm officially given the goal. [21:09] Northfield when they score first this [21:12] season they are perfect 60 and0 mid Ian [21:16] conceding the first goal 14 and one [21:20] are these stats yes [21:23] they impact what's happening today no [21:25] will they help paint the picture [21:26] absolutely [21:30] for the pass for Gagius but offside will [21:33] be called as soon as Gagelius touches it [21:36] and he will [21:40] And it's wild. I think that if you were [21:41] to take this from a neutral perspective, [21:45] >> if you were to look at the first this [21:47] point 10 minutes of this game with the [21:50] choppiness that Northfield had to begin [21:52] at, how [21:56] unrefined those passes were as there's [21:58] another puck into the netting and [22:00] another faceoff [22:02] here in the passing moments. 431 to go. [22:06] But if you would have seen that first 10 [22:08] men 10 minutes, you wouldn't figure that [22:10] Northfield would be the team on the [22:11] scoreboard first. Nonetheless, they are [22:17] Walker Sorum who was able to put them on [22:19] the board. [22:22] Face off win by Gagelius. He'll send it [22:25] into the zone. Winter stops it behind [22:27] for Northfield. Pushed around by Pumper [22:29] held in and a shot through off a stick [22:31] of Kale Gruml. Find it way back to the [22:34] near side half wall. Another puck into [22:37] the netting and another face off with [22:39] 416 to go. [22:41] The longer this game goes, the more [22:44] likely I thought it was going to be that [22:46] we would have some sort of a rhythm, [22:47] some sort of a flow to this game. But [22:50] it's a game [22:52] at this point now. 12 minutes [22:55] and 44 seconds gone into it that there [22:58] just hasn't been any rhythm so far. [23:00] Gagnelius [23:02] for Brauml around off the end boards. [23:06] Lloyd has his pocket pick. Raiders [23:08] starting to break out for Stewart and [23:11] send it to the zone. Bumble first two [23:12] for Mame. Silent Ys and dumps it back [23:15] in. Taken by Trevor Rogasheski. [23:17] Rogasheski gains a blue line. He dumps [23:20] it in will change their lines back [23:22] behind. [23:24] Ashton Pumper further ahead for Peters. [23:26] Peters team up a drive and steered to [23:28] the corner by Chz. [23:31] Whiteitman will hold it in. [23:34] >> Play set back behind. Bring able to get [23:36] to it in the corner. Wrong back off that [23:38] far side for Will Severs. Almost cleared [23:41] out by Mameidi but held in by [23:43] Northfield. Gutterman will get to it [23:45] now. Mameidi clears it there on the [23:47] right side for Severs down to the [23:49] Northfield end. 318 to go first period. [23:52] Still one- nothing in favor of [23:54] Northfield. Shots now 14-8 in favor of [23:57] the bottom eye zephers. Gavin Winter has [24:00] stopped all 14 so far. A turnover. Kevin [24:04] O'Donnell puts it down and low. A shot [24:06] through and another save from a sharp [24:08] angle off of Brock Gutman. Stick by [24:10] Gavin Winter. [24:13] Christian Lightman brings it around for [24:15] Jacob Peters. Peters tries to start the [24:18] breakout. Got as far as center. Weber [24:20] with a backhanded clearance off the [24:21] skate of Dumbar and picked back over by [24:24] Whitman. Weber a shot saved by Chzik. He [24:26] steers it to the corner. Weber gathers. [24:30] Zappers look to start the break and [24:32] Brock Gunnman to the red line. Gutterman [24:35] looking to move with it. Gathers works [24:37] his way to the slot. A shot through. [24:38] Saved by Winter as Braden first fired a [24:41] rifle just at the top of the dock. [24:44] Oliver Benjamin takes it over. Benjamin [24:47] put further ahead. Was looking for [24:48] Simon. gathered instead by Henry Sampair [24:51] off far side. The red path lost the [24:53] handle into the zone. It's gathered back [24:55] up by Northfield and Charlie Becker [24:57] Smith behind the net. He'll take it [24:59] there to the half one chipped out by [25:02] Benjamin looking for his opposite number [25:04] and Oliver Benjamin. And this one will [25:07] go out of play in a faceoff here at [25:09] Neutralize. 203 to go in period number [25:13] one. [25:16] First match up between these two teams [25:18] at St. Croy Valley Rec Center since [25:20] December 22nd of 2018. Zephers won that [25:24] one by a final score of 7 to1. Many of [25:27] the student athletes who competed in [25:29] that game have since moved on not just [25:32] to college but have graduated since [25:36] quite some time since any Raiders played [25:38] here at least against Mona. [25:44] Schmid into the zone from the slot shot [25:46] on save Chzik and he'll hold on for a [25:49] face off and Mammina then with a minute [25:51] 45 to go. Period number one. [25:55] Goal differential for each of these [25:57] teams fairly even [26:00] so far this season. Northfield has [26:01] scored seven, they've conceded seven. [26:03] Mameidi scored 12, they've conceded 10. [26:07] It's pretty even in terms of the plus [26:09] minus [26:10] over the course of that period. Another [26:12] shot through. Run around on the near [26:14] side and all the way back as far as [26:16] center. Kenny [26:19] pops it back to the blue line of Ashe [26:20] Pumper. Pumper across the red and now [26:22] the attacking zone move. It's knocked [26:24] off of a stick and finds a home in the [26:27] corner. [26:28] Run by Gagnis. [26:30] Picked up there by Roasheski. Roasheski [26:33] couldn't clear it. Sends it back now for [26:34] Kale. Bring the other side. Rumble [26:38] gathers possession. gathers ahead of [26:40] steam and Brumble twoon two tries to get [26:42] around one back to the far side. It's [26:45] held in there by Bridger Riley from [26:47] Northfield now taken back over by [26:49] Gagelius. Gagas tries a backand picked [26:52] up by Desar [26:54] Midi as he'll circle pushed down below [26:57] and Blake Lida on the give and go back [26:59] as far as center held in beautifully by [27:01] Kale Bruml. Brummel's shot locked out in [27:04] front by Stewart and here goes [27:05] Northfield. Twoon two Stewart dropped [27:08] for Kennley. Kennley creates some space. [27:10] Had a shot that was blocked by Brummel. [27:12] And another one on the far side off the [27:15] stick of Christian Whiteitman into the [27:16] glove of Jackson Chzik who holds on for [27:18] a faceoff with 41.9 left to go here in [27:22] period number one. [27:25] Shots have been a plenty so far. 16-11. [27:30] The shots on goals. Efforts as a team [27:32] have averaged 35 per game this season. [27:35] Northfield meanwhile 38.3. So not [27:37] atypical the pace Simon a shot on. Chzik [27:40] puts it to the far side corner. [27:44] Raiders will hold it in. Whiteitman lost [27:47] his edging and lost his edging [27:49] illegally, meaning that there will be a [27:51] penalty assist against Mameidi in our [27:53] first power play of the game. We'll [27:55] start in the first period, extend to the [27:57] second period and maybe [28:00] result in a goal one way or the other. [28:03] The affected party here [28:06] for Monina will be Henry Sampair who [28:08] goes for a hook [28:11] at 1631 by that officials designation [28:17] that puts Northfield on a power play [28:19] there. First of the game [28:22] faceoff one by Northfield. Kenny had to [28:26] walk it back but a good pressure made by [28:28] Cody Lloyd. Sends it back. Zephris will [28:30] have numbers as Lita carries it back [28:31] into the zone. Wilbertson fighting with [28:34] Lida for possession. Left it there. It's [28:36] taken over now. Bridger Riley. Miles [28:39] Kenny to the attacking zone. Kenny [28:42] dropped it off. A shot blocked out in [28:44] front off the stick of Zaxons. And a [28:47] faceoff that will be due. Back in the [28:50] defensive zone of Mamemidi. The [28:52] officials will go over to the scorers [28:53] table and see what time, if any, need be [28:56] tacked on. [29:02] I will tack on an extra second. So 5.8 [29:06] here [29:08] >> left to go in period number one. Stewart [29:11] one the draw. Try to send it through. [29:13] Riley has it in the corner. One last [29:14] backhanded chance as the puck goes [29:16] through to the half wall. The horn will [29:18] sound and for as dominant as Monave was [29:21] in the first 10 minutes of play, it is [29:24] the Northfield Raiders via Walker Saom's [29:28] second goal of the season that has given [29:30] the Northfield Raiders a one to nothing [29:32] lead after 17 minutes of play here at [29:35] the St. Croy Valley Rec Center in St. [29:38] Paul's suburb still water. Raiders went [29:41] leading after one. They're 3 and0 this [29:43] season. Zephers when trailing 03 and [29:46] one. Coming back in a couple of moments [29:48] for some intermission conversation, some [29:49] highlights, some stats, and everything [29:51] else you might find useful.

[34:26] Walker Sorum his first goal since [34:28] December the 9th against Mano West as [34:31] Northfield Raiders in front by a score [34:33] of one to nothing after 17 minutes of [34:35] play from St. Croy Valley Rec Center in [34:37] Stillwater, Minnesota. Hi everybody. [34:39] Very pleasant Tuesday evening to you. My [34:41] name is Alex Wistad here high at top the [34:42] ice at St. Croy Valley Rec Center. For [34:45] the first 7 minutes of this game, it was [34:48] almost expected, anticipated, whatever [34:51] superlative you want to use, that the [34:53] bottom eight zephers were going to [34:54] cruise their way to victory. But [34:56] Northfield went late and they turned on [34:58] the gas. Sure enough, a series of [35:00] highflying [35:02] physical play and flurry of shots. Many [35:06] zephers flung everything that they had [35:08] at Gavin Winter over that early stretch. [35:10] And every single time the senior [35:12] goalender said no to a mameidi Zephr [35:16] shooter. Northfield had their chances, [35:18] plenty of them. That Kenny and Stewart [35:20] chance was the key. But that shot [35:22] harmlessly as it seemed. Walker Sorum [35:25] with the goal ahead goal in the first [35:27] period. That's given the Northfield [35:29] Raiders this one to nothing lead. They [35:31] hold after 17 minutes of play. Shots [35:34] again 16 to12 in favor of Mameidi. [35:37] Scoring opportunities four to four. But [35:39] again, with that first 7 minutes of [35:42] play, you really felt like Madame was [35:44] going to make something happen, going to [35:46] turn something into a goal there. But [35:49] for better or worse, Madame just [35:51] couldn't handle it as her struggles [35:53] against ranked teams this year continue. [35:55] 16 and two after regulation games [35:57] against ranked opponents. So far, still [36:00] looking for that first goal. And we'll [36:02] have about a minute and 32 seconds of [36:05] penalty kill time to begin period number [36:07] two. And the period of the long change, [36:12] one to nothing. Northfield leads over [36:15] Mamedai after 17 minutes of play. Walker [36:17] Storm the goal. We'll see who's got the [36:19] next goal coming up next here on your [36:21] home for Monid.

After 17 [41:31] minutes of play, Raiders will have a [41:33] minute 32 of power play time to begin [41:36] this second period. And what's been and [41:39] what has been expected to be a great [41:41] match up between two top 10 teams in [41:43] class A tonight in Stillwater, [41:46] Minnesota. [41:48] First regular season meeting between [41:49] these two since 2022. First in this barn [41:52] since 2018. They haven't played each [41:54] other frequently. separated by 51 miles [41:57] of highway driving. Here's what it's [41:59] been over the course of that time in [42:00] which these two teams have played each [42:02] other dating back in far as 2017 in the [42:05] state a quarterfinal at then XL Energy [42:08] Center now Grand Casino Arena. Since [42:11] then, Mameidi had won a series of four [42:15] in a row prior to last year's state a [42:18] consolation game at 3M Arena at Maruchi. [42:22] zone. Northfield bookending those two [42:24] wins in between four Mamedai wins. And [42:27] when Mamedai wins, they score in [42:29] bunches, winning by about a three to [42:32] four goal per game margin over [42:34] Northfield in that head-to-head match [42:36] up. So when the Zephers win, they win by [42:38] a lot. Whereas Northfield knows how to [42:40] hold on to a win. [42:43] Gavin Winter has been holding on so far. [42:46] 16 shots faced, 16 shots stopped. [42:50] Jackson Chzich has only bluffed one time [42:54] or a shot low. Screen perhaps got past [42:57] the senior goalender [42:59] as he made 43 of 47 in a four to nothing [43:03] loss to Minnetonka on Saturday at Pagel [43:05] Ice Arena in Minnotonka. [43:08] And the Raiders will head back to the [43:09] power play to begin period number two. [43:12] Northfield's power play had ample [43:15] opportunities their last game against [43:17] Newreg but was ultimately limited to [43:20] going one for six in terms of the Raider [43:23] power play on the road. They are just [43:25] one for their last 12 in road games. A [43:30] year ago against Mameita, they went 1 [43:31] for five in the consolation semifinal of [43:35] last year's class A state tournament at [43:39] Frea Marina at Maruchi. [43:42] Kale Brummel had it back from Manameai, [43:44] but off sides was called and there'll be [43:47] a face off at neutral ice. A minute and [43:48] 20 remaining on this power play for [43:52] Northfield. It was on the pass it will [43:53] be back towards the shallow side. Zephr [43:56] side of neutral ice. [43:59] Zephforts meanwhile their penalty kill [44:01] on the season 68.3% but with a little [44:04] grain of salt there against Minnetonka [44:06] on Saturday. They killed three of four. [44:09] And here on home ice, they've killed 12 [44:11] of 13 home penalties faced this season. [44:15] So again, take that with just a grain of [44:18] salt based on how they have been [44:19] performing this year. Gilbertson into [44:23] the zone. Shot threw redirected off of [44:24] the stick of Roishes and back into the [44:28] Mamedai zone. Another faceoff in that [44:30] zone with a minute four remaining of [44:32] power play time for the Northfield [44:33] Raiders. [44:38] Eastston Desolar all four points goals [44:40] this year. A little unique for him [44:42] though as he was just on your screen. [44:44] His four points this year all goals. A [44:46] year ago all four of his points were [44:47] assists. How about that? [44:51] Whiteitman out of the corner. Try to [44:53] take it there. He's still hung to the [44:54] corner as they'll continue to fight for [44:56] it there. Check delivered on the near [44:58] side byman. They'll continue to wrestle [45:00] for the puck in the corner. 46 seconds [45:03] on power play time. Miles Kenny back to [45:06] the blue line for Bridger. Bridger and a [45:08] tripping call is coming. We'll even it [45:10] up. The question is though, which way [45:12] will this go? Except for goalender Chzik [45:14] was out of the net. [45:19] This will be an interference minor with [45:21] will spring the door open for Northfield [45:23] on their side. Their captain Bridger [45:25] Riley in his fourth season on the [45:27] varsity roster heads to the penalty box. [45:30] We'll have 37 seconds of four on four [45:32] time before the Zappers get their first [45:34] power play of the night. [45:40] Sam Pere 37 seconds remaining on his [45:42] penalty time [45:46] for Riley's full two starts now. Face [45:48] off briefly controlled by Mamedi then [45:50] reathered by Levi Schmidt [45:53] looking to start the breakout. Ashton [45:56] Pumper for Northfield cleared it back [45:58] out. Cody Lloyd had it. Sends it off the [46:00] boards. Steon O'Donnell carries it back [46:02] into his corner. Try to draw the penalty [46:04] around Peters. Peters able to wrestle it [46:06] free for Northfield. [46:08] Peters back from the far side. Hit off [46:11] the stick of Gutman. Back into the [46:13] Northfield defensive zone and 8 seconds [46:15] remaining of four time. Pumper [46:19] had it knocked down. Picked up by [46:21] Schmidt. Schmidt will wind the clock as [46:23] much as he can as the Zephers are back [46:25] to full strength. Great straight work [46:27] made by Manavita as they're able to get [46:30] the puck back. It's taken by Cody Lida. [46:32] And now Henry Sampair further ahead into [46:34] the zone for Owen O'Donnell. [46:37] Back out in front. Shot through. [46:39] Blocked. Not by Winter, but instead by [46:40] the defender Pumper down the length of [46:43] the ice. It'll go. Goender Ches will [46:45] come out to play it laterally on the [46:46] line with 59 seconds remaining on the [46:48] first Zephr power play of the night. Sam [46:52] Pair [46:53] looks to go for a pass. finds Gutman on [46:56] the left side. Gutman walks his way low. [47:00] Spins around Stewart. Gutman pumped back [47:03] down low for Red Pack to Gutman to the [47:05] point. Lita Lida. Sampair on the dock. [47:08] Shot save by Gavin Winter and he hold on [47:11] for a faceoff. 37 seconds remaining on [47:14] this power play. [47:16] Still one to nothing. Northfield holding [47:18] on. Bottom ice power play went 0 for [47:21] four against Minnetonka on Saturday. [47:24] They're one for their last seven power [47:26] play attempts here at St. Croy Valley [47:27] Rec Center. Their last power play goal [47:29] coming here on home December the 12th [47:32] against Warro [47:35] for Lida INTO THE SLOT. SCORE STREAK IS [47:38] OVER. VINNIE RED PAT HIS EIGHTH of the [47:40] year. Power play goal and the Zephers [47:43] tie it at one all. [47:57] Vinnie Red Path had a natural hat-tick [48:00] against Orino in this building. And how [48:03] the bumper man finds his way into the [48:05] middle of the ice. Not just finding it, [48:07] but having that much time, having that [48:09] much space [48:12] where he could just pick a corner. [48:13] Vinnie Red Path does exactly that. And [48:16] it's 1-1 on the power play goal for the [48:19] Mameidi Zephers. [48:22] And all of a sudden, we got us a game [48:24] now. [48:27] Red Path, his eighth in terms of the [48:29] Zephr team leaders. That will tie him [48:31] with Deon O'Donnell who also has a [48:36] icing called here. Face off to result in [48:39] the Mameidi defensive zone. [48:44] Sampair picks up the assist as does Cody [48:47] Lida [48:48] >> for Lida. That makes it now five assists [48:51] in his last four games. [48:54] For Sam Pair, he picks up just his [48:56] fourth point [48:59] no Zephers this year. [49:03] Across it goes. Blake Benzone [49:06] dropped it off. Hit the back side of the [49:08] skate of first. Zephers will try to hold [49:11] possession. goes back out for Zack Sins. [49:14] Zins chipped back into the defensive [49:16] zone. Pumper to it for Northfield. [49:18] Mororrow back it out. Benjamin will send [49:22] it down. Race for the puck is on and [49:24] pass from the far side quarter by Weber. [49:26] Finds it way all the way back out [49:27] through neutral. Here's Braden first. [49:29] First will try the corner. Lowers his [49:31] shoulder. Trying to drive his way in. [49:33] Rubbed out of the play by Schmid. Tommy [49:36] Bone [49:38] will put it low. Back to the blue line [49:40] around the horn. [49:42] Zins tried to put a shot through. Taken [49:45] over by Charlie Becker. Freed back [49:47] through neutral. Dunar [49:50] for Zins. Spinning around. Benjamin [49:53] looking to get himself some more space. [49:55] Zins. That puck intercepted by Charlie [49:58] Becker. And Benjamin will reset for [50:00] Northfield into their own defensive zone [50:02] for the Raiders. Bridger Riley taken [50:04] over by Riker Dunar. Riley regains for [50:06] Northfield. Riley from the wall sends a [50:10] shot towards goal and Jackson Chzik will [50:12] hold on for a save here in period number [50:14] two. [50:17] 1301 left to go period number two. [50:20] Walker Sorum [50:22] in the first. Vinnie Red path in the [50:25] power play in the second and we're all [50:28] tied at one goal a piece. [50:31] Weber on the faceoff draw for [50:32] Northfield. Deon O'Donnell on it for [50:34] Monamita. [50:36] cover the faceoff win. A tea up and a [50:38] drive. The first save made by Chzik [50:40] steered back to the corner. Peters [50:43] Peters taken out of the play by Brummel [50:46] legally [50:47] and Whiteman will hold on. Taken back [50:49] over now by O'Donnell trying to free his [50:52] attacking partner there and Brock Gman [50:54] who's playing up from defensive [50:57] sent back down to the corner. Rung to [50:59] the near side Sever. Sever pass through. [51:03] It's taken back over by Manidi and [51:05] Trevor Roasheski, but the whistle will [51:07] blow and there was a Zephr without his [51:10] helmet. Will Sever's lost it at the high [51:12] school level. The whistle blows [51:14] immediately and there'll be another face [51:15] off in a last play situation after this. [51:21] Jacob Peters, there's Will Severs. Four [51:24] points in his last five entering the [51:25] night. Career year last season, seven [51:28] goals, nine assists. Also linebacker and [51:30] running back for Mameidi football. [51:33] have to put his helmet on here. I'm sure [51:37] >> Dave Metsel would like to see the helmet [51:39] strapped tight a little bit more in the [51:40] football season there for receivers as [51:43] well. [51:45] Off the face off, it's taken in by [51:47] Gilbertson. Look behind Serar [51:52] try to clear it back out through center. [51:54] hit off the skate of Stewart and it's [51:56] picked up by Pumper. [52:00] Sorum [52:01] takes his time across neutral. Sorum [52:03] will cut back at the near side wall. [52:05] Sorum drops for Stewart. Stewart trying [52:08] to cut his way on in. Taken out on the [52:10] play by Cody Lida. Stewart into the [52:13] corner. He'll gather it up there. Desar [52:17] put it back for Sampair. Sarah sends a [52:19] long shot on. Winter makes the save. [52:22] Sorum cleared back out to center down [52:24] the length of the ice. It'll go and [52:27] icing is called [52:29] >> charge. [52:30] >> 1146 to go. Second period. Shots on [52:33] goal. 19-4 [52:36] in favor of the Monameai Zephers. A [52:38] high-flying first period. Saw both teams [52:41] amass quite a few shots on goal. Slowed [52:44] down a little bit here in period number [52:46] two. Also a little bit more flow [52:48] compared to what there was in the first [52:50] frame of this game as well. [52:55] Face off controlled by Northfield. [52:56] They'll clear it out, but this will go [52:58] down the length of the ice. And lo and [52:59] behold, another icing call. [53:13] Face off to the right [53:16] of Gavin Winter. [53:19] He will not record a clean sheet [53:21] tonight, but did have one clean sheet [53:23] against Wasika. Odd to that a shot would [53:26] occur in overtime where the pressure is [53:28] all the more on, but that's what he did. [53:30] He picked it up in a one- nothing win. [53:32] The Raiders over the Blue Jays of Wasa [53:34] in the overtime session. [53:38] Dunbar trying to send a shot through. [53:40] It's run around to the far side. It's [53:42] gathered up by Charlie Becker. Becker [53:44] tried to clear through the zone. Simon [53:45] will hold it in. Rings it around to the [53:46] far side. There Riley back to the blue [53:49] line where it's chipped out by Philip [53:50] Benjamin into the Zephr defensive zone. [53:52] Icing is waved off. Zack sends to it. [53:55] Rings it around to the near side. It's [53:56] gathered up by Stewart at first. Then [53:59] Simon was the one who tried to make a [54:01] play on it. Great pass. Ben's red path [54:03] into the zone. It's knocked off the [54:05] stick as Dunar couldn't handle it. [54:07] Benjamin was the one who had the stick [54:08] on for Northfield and the Zephers are [54:10] delayed offside. [54:13] Carter Simon for Becker. Becker taken [54:16] out of the play by Zack Sins. And the [54:19] time of the referee for time being will [54:20] stand out. O'Donnell passed back out. [54:23] Shot save by Winter on a good look in [54:26] the slot by Braden first. [54:31] It's amazing tonight how many times [54:33] we've seen good setups, good rushes into [54:35] the zone. Here's Mamedai's latest [54:37] example of that [54:39] >> first being that F3 being that one high [54:41] in the slot waiting for that shot to [54:43] come and the senior [54:47] with an impressive plus nine on the [54:48] season entering play tonight. Able to [54:50] pick that off and almost finished it [54:53] off. [54:54] Peters out of the corner. Pumper gathers [54:57] for Northfield. Here's Whiteitman. [55:00] Whiteitman tried to stay on side and [55:01] did. Whiteitman left it for Weber. Into [55:04] the corner it goes. Weber pass [55:06] Whiteitman. Save made by Chzik as it [55:10] just caught part of the pipe on the way [55:12] out of play. [55:16] Amadame gets a chance in their own [55:18] right. Northfield responds with one of [55:20] their own. The play everybody thought [55:22] was offside. But just as Red Path was [55:26] open in the slot with a power play goal [55:28] for the Zephers. Same two there for [55:30] Christian Whiteitman [55:32] and the goalie's best friend. post. [55:34] Helped him out there. Peters had a [55:36] chance at it as did Whiteman. He was [55:38] taken back over by Midas. Brock [55:40] Gutterman for a pass further ahead. Was [55:42] looking for Kale Bruml to the corner on [55:45] the far side. Whiteitman looks to push [55:47] it further ahead. Peters gathers it [55:50] there. Peters looks for a pass instead. [55:52] Turns it into a shot. Chzik steers it [55:54] aside. [55:55] Weber. It'll be offside if it's touched [55:58] by Northfield. And it will be with the [56:00] lead of an offsides call. Good attempt [56:03] at it by Peters to hold the zone, but [56:06] just a little behind on it on the far [56:08] side. And the faceoff will result all [56:11] the way back in Northfield's defensive [56:13] zone. 950 to go. [56:19] Raiders in maroon and gold. [56:24] According to the Northfield website, the [56:25] official color is not maroon. It's a [56:28] version of plum. [56:31] about that [56:33] out of the corner [56:35] that can be taken there. Gagelius [56:38] low for Lloyd. Shot from a sharp angle [56:40] out in front. Held on to by winter as [56:43] East Dolar came on down and fired a [56:46] couple of quick shots on and Winter held [56:48] on. [56:55] You really feel both teams starting to [56:56] get those chances right now [56:59] where those defenses are spreading. [57:01] Obviously the one for the power play. [57:04] You're out man in that situation, but [57:05] you can really feel how the defenses are [57:07] spreading giving teams more space. [57:10] Certainly in those high danger areas. [57:11] Amazing that the only one that has been [57:14] scored. Maybe a testament to the [57:15] strength of the goalending is the [57:18] power play goal earlier on in the period [57:20] by Vinnie Red. [57:24] A turnover that was forced. [57:27] >> Knocked to the corner. Riley couldn't [57:30] hold the zone. It'll go back out to [57:32] center. Miles Kennley will pick it [57:33] there. [57:36] Kenny into the zone to ring it around. [57:40] Bothered by the play of Lua. Taken over [57:43] Stewart. Stewart's shot harmlessly [57:45] turned aside by the goalender. [57:48] >> Kennaly withstand the check as did [57:51] Pumper. [57:53] And now it's tied up on the boards now [57:55] towards the Zamboni doors and taken over [57:57] by Henry Sampair. [58:01] Hazel [58:02] into the zone has that knocked off his [58:04] stick a couple of times. Humper picks it [58:07] up further ahead for Gilbertson into the [58:08] zone. Gilbertson a shot wide left brings [58:11] all the way back to the blue line and [58:13] the whistle will blow and an extra shove [58:16] after the fact. Now we'll see if [58:18] anything comes of this. The net was [58:20] knocked off. [58:22] It's mooring behind Jackson Chzik [58:26] and then after the play there was [58:28] physicality and roughing call will be [58:30] and you see it there on your screen [58:34] Dellar and I'll get the official [58:35] pronunciation here so I can stop [58:37] annoying people with it. It'll be a [58:40] second chance on the power play now for [58:41] Northfield on the roughing minor at 837 [58:48] by null. [58:51] Opportunity better than when you can [58:53] take advantage of an unforced error by a [58:55] team. [59:03] And in the case of Deller, [59:07] >> guess you can make the argument too that [59:08] the whistle hadn't sounded yet or you [59:10] hadn't heard the whistle more likely. [59:12] But that's Bob that time. Discretion [59:16] better part of Valor there. [59:19] Peters on the power play now for [59:21] Northfield. Their second of the game. [59:24] Peters and the power play for Northfield [59:27] ended because the penalty that was taken [59:29] by Bridger Riley that led to the power [59:31] play that Moni scored on in this period. [59:36] So in the case of Northfield staying out [59:37] of the box themselves will be pivotal [59:39] here. [59:41] Peters at the wall goes back for Simon. [59:44] Simon te's it up off the post on the [59:46] near side. Sins gathers, sends it back [59:49] out and now continuing is Riker Dunar [59:54] and there'll be a tripping minor that'll [59:56] get called here. [59:59] And who's headed to the box? It appears [60:02] as though Jacob Peters ends [60:05] two for tripping to Jacob Peters. [60:10] That ends the Northfield power play for [60:12] the second time tonight because of [60:15] taking their own penalty. [60:24] A little sigh of relief perhaps from [60:26] Adabida. Face off in the zone for [60:28] Northfield. He'll have to play defense. [60:31] Lida take it down low. Will his Zephers [60:35] O'Donnell [60:36] O'Donnell right behind waiting for some [60:38] pressure. Didn't come and now it does. [60:40] Lida gathers it there from behind. Too [60:44] far for O'Donnell. Riley got to it in [60:46] the corner. Couldn't corral it. Sends it [60:48] back behind out in front to the slot and [60:50] an open net miss by Brock Gutterman. [60:54] Lloyd at the blue [60:56] leaves it O'Donnell. O'Donnell tried to [60:58] spring the give and go. It's taken over [61:00] now. Bridger Riley [61:02] through neutralize Miles Kennaly. Kenny [61:05] into the zone. Lost it. Schmidt gathers [61:07] for the Raiders. Puts it back in. Riley [61:10] shot blocker save made by Jezik. [61:13] Gently working towards the slot. STEWART [61:16] SCORES. [61:18] MICHAEL STEWART HIS SEVENTH of the year. [61:21] A fouron four goal. And the Raiders [61:23] retake a two to one lead. [61:29] And the player Deller was excused from [61:32] the box. He should not have been. That [61:34] was an even strength goal. [61:38] >> Kenny out of the corner. Just a spin and [61:40] a fire from Stewart. [61:44] And after a four-point game against [61:46] Newreg, make it now a fivegame point [61:50] streak [61:52] >> for the senior Michael Stewart [61:59] and Northfield takes the two to one [62:01] lead. [62:05] how the officials are having a [62:06] conversation with the Monamidi bench [62:10] as the clock had been taken off. The [62:12] time had been taken off. You see it on [62:14] our screen. 24 seconds will remain of [62:16] four time [62:20] once that math is figured out. They put [62:23] two minutes on. [62:27] Well, now we know that's not correct. [62:32] Michael Stewart, seventh goal of the [62:34] season, 16th point. [62:37] Zephers couldn't get the puck out of the [62:38] zone. I think that's how it starts. But [62:41] Kennaly, the sophomore, finds a senior [62:43] and Stewart right in the slot. [62:48] You can keep firing all you want and as [62:51] a result that turns into two by two to [62:53] one Raider lead. [62:56] Well, the Monomina Zephers were the [62:59] longtime state powers. Two two state [63:01] championships in 2020 and 2023. It was [63:05] always a question of [63:07] not if Madame could get over the hump [63:10] and get that state tournament title. It [63:11] was just a question of when. [63:15] Put 28 seconds on the clock in the [63:17] penalty time for Desolar. That's a [63:19] little longer than perhaps what it [63:22] should be, but obviously we're the only [63:24] ones here with TV access and replay [63:27] access, so we'll keep that to ourselves. [63:31] Severs put it down in low. Wrap around [63:34] O'Donnell and another puck towards the [63:37] goal. And Winter keeps the legs closed. [63:42] >> Oh, point blank save by Gavin Winter. [63:46] Wow. [63:50] We've seen this wrap around a couple of [63:52] times tonight by Deon O'Donnell [63:55] and he tried to get it to fire. Will [63:57] Severs was right there too and when [64:00] Winter lost it, he just put that glove [64:02] right behind. Closed the back door of [64:04] the five hole. [64:06] Was able to keep this a 2-1 Raider lead. [64:11] 18 seconds of fouron four time [64:15] >> on the faceoff win controlled by [64:18] Mameidi. Still four on four. Sampair [64:23] >> will walk shot that came from the blue [64:27] line and Gutman cleared back out as far [64:29] as center. Gutman is on it. Kenley is [64:31] the first to it for Northfield. [64:33] taking over. Henry Sampair, the future [64:36] main Blackbear, tries the right side of [64:39] the attacking zone. Zephr's back to full [64:41] strength. Sampair looks it for first. [64:46] Floyd looks to spring the trigger man in [64:48] the bumper spot. Goes the corner. Simon [64:53] fires around for Red Path. Red Path [64:55] fighting for it with Riley. It's cleared [64:58] out the opposite side. Well done by [65:01] Northw to clear the zone. [65:03] Jazz [65:05] puts it for Gutman [65:07] back to it. Vinnie Red path gathers [65:09] there. 10 seconds now remaining on the [65:11] power play abbreviated at that for [65:14] Monita. Sampair [65:17] Lida carries into the zone. Lida from [65:21] the dot to try to center a pass as the [65:24] Raiders return to full strength. Conman [65:27] pushed it down in low into the corner [65:30] for first. [65:32] First knives his way through. First [65:36] scrape his way back. First sprinting his [65:39] way into the corner and then back out of [65:41] it. Lloyd the shot hit off the end [65:44] boards. Simon tapped it around to the [65:47] near side. It's held in by Sampair. [65:50] Red pen. Blue line for Lida. Lloyd [65:58] will navigate his way low looking for [66:00] some space. Simon will loft it back to [66:04] center ice and the Zephers will reset [66:06] there. Sam Pair chipped to him off the [66:09] stick of Gutman and clear back out. Sam [66:12] Pere will take it over further ahead. [66:14] Zephers back into the zone. [66:17] Benjamin [66:19] on the puck for Northfield. got sent [66:21] back through right out of the stick of [66:24] Gag Nelius but [66:26] take there and now cleared out down the [66:28] length of the ice by North and icing is [66:32] calm. 431 to go second period. Two to [66:34] one is our score. Raiders goals by Sorum [66:38] and Stewart and the power play goal by [66:40] Vinnie Red Path. the scoring so far. And [66:44] for as choppy as that first period was, [66:47] the second period has been a lot more [66:50] typical for what you expect between two [66:52] teams in a top matchup, the top 10 [66:56] matchup here in class A. [67:00] Northfield out of section one, [67:02] out of section four. [67:05] Gutman [67:08] receivers with a pass out in front on [67:10] the given goal. It's not connected with [67:12] Gutman. [67:15] Christian Whiteman is off sides into the [67:18] zone. As a result of the offsides, this [67:21] will be a faceoff at Neutraliz. 408 to [67:25] go in period number two. [67:29] Jacob Peters has goals in three straight [67:32] for Northfield. career bests in goals [67:34] and points for the Raiders. [67:36] He has five goals, three and eight on [67:39] the season. [67:42] O'Donnell and Weber on the draw. Weber [67:44] wins it back. Schmidt gathers for the [67:46] Raiders. [67:48] Pumper navigates to the defensive zone. [67:52] Cleared it back for Dunar's possession [67:54] at neutral. Man's efforts back into the [67:57] zone. feel the amount of momentum that [68:00] has sprung for both sides after the [68:03] goals have been scored tonight. [68:06] How the game has changed so frequently [68:09] in the first seven minutes or so. Manita [68:12] the better of team, the better of pace, [68:14] the better of position. [68:16] The goal by Storm really changed how [68:18] they played as Zephers are off sides [68:21] there. [68:23] But that's kind of the dance that's gone [68:25] on between these two teams tonight. Back [68:26] and forth, back and forth, back and [68:28] forth. Zephers at one point in this game [68:30] had an eight to nothing shots on goal [68:32] lead. Now 22 to 18 [68:38] faceoff neutral ice. Tommy Bo on for the [68:41] Zephers over Benjamin wins it for [68:44] Northfield. [68:45] Benjamin tries to skate around Bo across [68:50] in the corner. [68:52] Philip Benjamin to gather there. Tommy [68:55] Bow. [68:57] Becker br a puck from the stick of Bow [68:59] out in front for Benjamin. Becker tied [69:02] up with the stick of Zins and Breeden [69:05] first will spring it ahead for Vinnie [69:07] Red Path. Red Path spins put a shot [69:10] through hit off the skate of Sorum for [69:13] Northfield and Red Path [69:16] will move his edges back behind. [69:19] Dunar [69:21] battles with Benjamin in the corner. [69:23] Rung around to the near side halfway [69:26] and first looking for it back in space. [69:29] Dunar shot through. Hit a redirection [69:32] out in front. Red path and Simon for [69:34] their respective teams were in the area. [69:38] Zins [69:42] able to free it now. Has it there. Zins. [69:44] A shot blocked in front. Follow up. Oh, [69:52] Zephers follow the puck. They tie it 22 [69:56] here in the second. [70:08] It starts with a faceoff win in the [70:10] corner [70:13] and then that fight for it. Two on to a [70:15] side. Zins holds it near side half wall. [70:18] Waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting. The [70:20] pass goes out in front and just enough [70:25] of the persistence to get the puck [70:28] towards the net resulting in the goal. [70:30] We'll get the announcement, but the [70:32] Zephers tie it at 22 here in the second [70:36] period of play. [70:42] >> Robertson [70:46] Then down low for Pumper. [70:48] It will be Tommy Bo who picks up the [70:52] goal. That'll be his first co not [70:54] collegiate, his first varsity goal. He [70:56] had three assists [70:59] in the game against Orino and now picks [71:01] up his first goal. [71:05] Lloyd escorted to the corner by Michael [71:08] Stewart. [71:10] Desar [71:12] back out. slot. Short angle save by [71:14] Winter and the Frecus that ensues will [71:18] defuse and there'll be a face off in [71:20] Northfield's end. [71:23] >> There will be a chucka puck [71:27] >> in about a minute and 45 seconds [71:31] of game time. Shots on goal now. 2418 [71:35] in favor of Mameidi with a minute 45 to [71:38] go. [71:43] And it's the same kind of chances paid [71:46] off for Mameidi tonight. Just keep [71:48] peppering. Keep peppering. [71:51] Take advantage. The goals for Northfield [71:54] tonight have been opportunistic. [71:57] A lot of to their effort has created [72:00] opportunities of their own. Peters [72:03] gathered it, had it, lost it. Taken over [72:05] at center by Severs. Try to go into the [72:07] zone. Kale Brummo brought it in. Zephers [72:10] are offside with a minute and 22 to go. [72:14] Well, the game that'll follow here [72:15] tonight at St. Croy Valley Rec Center, [72:18] Stillwater boys hockey against Rose [72:20] Mountain. [72:21] And that should be quite a good one [72:24] indeed. Still Water one of the favorites [72:25] certainly in section 4A. If there are [72:29] any favorites that are not the Hill [72:31] Murray Pioneers for that matter, Still [72:33] Water certainly likes their chances as I [72:35] would agree. [72:36] Sampair run around to the far side. [72:39] Brock Hutterman cleared as far as [72:40] center. Will Sever try to put it ahead. [72:42] Simman back to it for Northfield. [72:44] Cleared back through neutral ice. Samp [72:46] on in pursuit. Picks it up in his own [72:47] defensive zone. Sam Pere trying to use [72:50] net as a screen. Had to slow down. [72:53] Cleared it back out as far at center. [72:54] It's taken over by Schmidt for [72:56] Northfield. [72:58] Peters put it towards goal. Chzik had [73:00] it. Keeps it alive so the Zephers can [73:02] start a breakout. Cody Lena into the [73:06] attacking zone. Lida leaves it left [73:08] side. Gutterman shot and steered out of [73:12] the play [73:14] by Gavin Winter in a faceoff in [73:16] Northfield's defensive zone. 40 seconds [73:18] to go here in period number two. Our [73:21] camera operators today, Ben Brandon, [73:23] Christian Stoultzman, and our truck [73:25] crew, David Skyler, [73:27] Dave Cast, and Joe Sigourney. [73:32] And certainly if Winter [73:35] keeps holding on, that's kind of what [73:37] he's had to do today. [73:39] Riley with the Northfield Raider sends a [73:42] shot on stung to the corner. It's taken [73:45] back over by Cody Lida. Lida ahead has [73:49] Bo with him. Lida tried to drop for Bo. [73:52] Teld there by Red Path. Red Path into [73:56] the corner. Lida shot through. hit off [73:58] of Red Path in front looking to stuff it [74:01] home on the near side and the whistle [74:03] will blow as Gavin Winter held on for a [74:06] faceoff. [74:10] Gavin Winter, the senior. The other [74:12] goalender on the roster for Northfield [74:14] is Riker Landon, who played Bantam [74:16] Hockey [74:18] last season for Northfield. [74:22] And Winter right now, the goals against [74:24] average 196, save percentage 915. [74:27] Exactly what we've gotten out of them [74:29] tonight. [74:32] If there's ever a time for the [74:33] announcers Jinx to backfire, it is [74:35] exactly there. Mameidi fires a shot off [74:39] of a faceoff as time expires and the [74:42] Zephers take a 3-2 lead with 7 seconds [74:45] left to go. [74:51] Clean faceoff win and just like the [74:54] first Northfield goal, a shot from a [74:57] long way out. Henry Serero will get it [75:00] his second [75:02] and they'll look for one more. [75:05] driving in looking for a redirection [75:07] held on to by winner. [75:11] And just like the first goal for Walker [75:13] Sorum, the goal for Henry Sampair, the [75:16] main commit [75:18] from the blue line from a sharp offc [75:20] center angle [75:23] just screened just high enough to find [75:25] its way into the back of the net. The [75:27] horn sounds [75:32] and 10 seconds of game time ago, a 3-2 [75:35] Zephr lead at the end of two was well [75:37] maybe to the casual fan out of the [75:39] picture, but for those who know this [75:41] team [75:43] and know the skill and potential that [75:45] they have. Well, [75:48] >> it's just a normal day for the Monameidi [75:50] blue and goal. [75:53] >> Goals for the Zephers in the third [75:55] period. [75:59] at least in the second period rather. [76:01] Red path. [76:03] Boair. [76:07] And after trailing one to nothing after [76:09] one, the Zephers score three times in [76:13] the second period. And they will lead [76:15] after 34 minutes of play 3-2 [76:19] in a top 10 matchup of teams here in [76:23] class A. There were a lot of highlights [76:25] in period number two.

[81:01] Unless you're wearing the number 30, the [81:04] general consensus around St. Croy Valley [81:08] Ice Center is [81:10] that's a lot better. That's more like [81:12] it. Goals of plenty. Stewart the lone [81:16] tally for Northfield. Sampair Red Path [81:19] and Bo for the Mameidi Zephers. And [81:22] after trailing one- nothing at the end [81:24] of one period, Mameidi now leads by one [81:26] 3-2 after 34 minutes of play at St. Croy [81:30] Valley Rec Center in Stillwater. My name [81:32] is Alex Westad. Our great crew here [81:34] today in Stillwater has been treated to [81:37] quite the game so far. All right, it [81:39] started with 7 minutes of dominant ice [81:42] time by the Mameidi Zephris where it [81:44] felt like in that span a goal was going [81:48] to arrive surely. But the second period [81:50] proved to be the opposite. More of the [81:52] back and forth flow that we were [81:54] expecting to see. It started this power [81:56] play goal from the bumper spot. Vinnie [81:58] Red Path picks up his eighth of the [82:00] season, but the Zephers were not done [82:03] yet. They took the power play and rode [82:05] that momentum going forward. A miscu [82:08] though gives Northfield the lead. [82:10] Kennley passes out in front to Stewart [82:12] in the slot and Northfield took the two [82:14] to one lead. Then this golden chance. [82:17] O'Donnell with the wrap around. Stuffed [82:19] by Winter on the last chance by Severs. [82:22] It was this battle in the corner which [82:24] turned to this rifle from Zim. Out [82:27] followed up on by Ty Bo who picks up his [82:30] first varsity goal. Tie the game at two. [82:32] And then this seemingly harmless last [82:35] second shot finds the back of the net. [82:37] The frustration from Gavin Winter as [82:39] Henry Sampair pots his second goal of [82:42] the season, giving Modamei the 3-2 lead [82:45] after two periods of play. Shots on goal [82:48] still about where they were at the end [82:50] of one period. The seven shot advantage [82:53] for Mameidi. Scoring chances favored [82:55] Mameidi in that period. Northfield, you [82:58] saw the clunkiness start to rear its [83:00] head again on the back half of that [83:02] second period, but still really good [83:04] chances on both sides. Power plays. One [83:06] for two is Mameidi. Northfield 0 for two [83:08] on the power play so far. Continuing [83:11] their cold streak against Newreg where [83:13] now they are one for their last eight on [83:15] the power play. So a lot of time left [83:18] but Mameidi taking the comfortable [83:20] advantage into the locker room after 34 [83:23] minutes of play. [83:27] 32 the score. Zephers in front of [83:31] Northfield after 34 minutes of play. [83:33] We'll be back for the third period in [83:35] moments. You're on your home for boys [83:37] hockey, the East Metro Community [83:39] Channels TV 19. [83:50] Mom, [83:52] did you really need to buy two can [83:53] openers for our emergency kit?

The go-ahead goal [89:06] for Monidai. to Zephers as we get ready [89:09] to start the third period of play from [89:11] the St. Croy Valley Rec Center. Alex [89:13] Westad here high at top the ice at St. [89:16] Croy Valley Rec Center. Our camera crew [89:17] today, Ben Brandon and Christian [89:19] Stoultzman in the truck, David Skyler, [89:21] Dave Cast, and Joe Sigourney. The two [89:24] teams after tonight will take very [89:26] different routes to the end of the [89:28] 202526 [89:30] regular season. Mameidi, much can be [89:32] made by the naked eye of their record. [89:34] 56 and two entering this one today. [89:37] Northfield at 91 and 0. But for the [89:39] Zephers, their schedule continues to get [89:42] tough and will continue to be tough down [89:45] the stretch here in the 2026 portion of [89:48] their schedule. For the Zephers after [89:50] tonight, four of the remaining games [89:52] that they will have will be against [89:54] unranked opponents. The rest all are. It [89:57] starts on the next opportunity Thursday [90:00] at number three Delano in class A. After [90:03] that, they will return home here to [90:06] another very good team, the St. Thomas [90:08] Academy Cadets on January the 22nd. [90:11] After that, they won't be home here [90:12] again until the February 7th game [90:14] against the Hastings Raiders, who right [90:16] now is ahead of them in the class for a [90:20] um QRF ranking in section 4. I almost [90:23] called it the pair-wise. It's not quite [90:24] the pairwise, but Manameidi will spend [90:27] not just only the bulk of their schedule [90:30] the rest of the way away from home, even [90:32] the games they have at home. St. Thomas [90:33] Academy Hastings, the one that's not on [90:35] that graphic, they have home to St. [90:37] Cloud Cathedral to conclude their [90:39] regular season on February the 13th. [90:41] That is no easy schedule for Mameidi [90:44] down the stretch. Meanwhile, for [90:46] Northfield, they will play just two [90:47] games against ranked opposition the rest [90:49] of the way in 2026. [90:53] They will return home down in Northfield [90:55] on Thursday against Rochester Century [90:57] and John Marshall. Then they'll [90:59] basically tag team home and away. Home [91:01] and away the rest of the way down the [91:03] stretch. Their remaining ranked games [91:07] January the 22nd at number 10 Breck at [91:10] the Bre School Anderson Ice Arena in [91:12] Golden Valley and then their regular [91:13] season finale at Delano on Saturday, [91:17] February the 14th. So, the Raiders right [91:19] now figure to be a player in the Big [91:21] Nine Conference. They're third of the [91:23] teams in the Big Nine right now, but [91:26] they too with state tournament [91:28] aspirations out of section one. There's [91:30] a lot to look at and a lot to look [91:32] towards moving into the rest of this [91:35] game here today. [91:40] Raiders after two when they are trailing [91:44] this season are 1 and one. Monominai [91:49] when leading after two are 40 and one. [91:56] If you're a fan of boys high school [91:58] hockey in the state of Minnesota and you [92:00] haven't learned, no matter the record, [92:02] no matter the situation, [92:04] Modina not just can beat you at any [92:06] time, they will beat you at any time. [92:11] Oh, might be time to pick up the old pen [92:12] and paper. Huh. [92:15] Gavin Winter has stopped 22 of 25 [92:21] shots faced tonight for the Northfield [92:23] Raiders. made 40 saves on 42 last year [92:27] in the consolation round at 3M Arena at [92:30] Maruchi. [92:34] Riker Dunar with goals in two straight [92:36] home games. Like to make it three. Let's [92:38] see if he does immediately. Face off [92:41] sent back in. Good body play made by [92:44] Ashton Pumper. Denies a chance the other [92:47] way. Riley put further ahead for Becker [92:51] into the zone. Northfield looking for [92:53] the equalizer and Zack Zins will run it [92:56] out of play. The whistle will blow and [92:58] the goalender Jackson Chzik will hold on [93:01] for a faceoff. 1640 to go. Chzik 17 [93:05] saves on 19 shots [93:08] for Mameidi tonight. Remember with a win [93:10] tonight, Chzik will pick up his 10th win [93:13] of the season. Been Chzik the majority [93:16] of the way for Manameidi. The other [93:17] goalender, Nico Fuberty, has played just [93:19] 7 minutes of game time in a 4-1 win [93:22] against Two Rivers. [93:24] Pumper [93:25] Riley now for Becker. Becker spins it [93:28] around. Benjamin tried to pick it, get [93:30] it to his brother Benjamin. Benjamin [93:33] will gather it back up at center over [93:35] the head of Pumper. Zins fanned on it on [93:37] the sticky ice after the resurface and [93:40] it's taken out of the corner by Oliver [93:41] Benjamin. Pumper knocked down with a [93:44] skate. try to go right side looking for [93:46] Philip Benjamin. Back into the zone it [93:48] goes Kaden Gagnelius [93:51] spins for Zins. Dunar [93:55] through neutral. Dunar [93:58] back to the near side off the stick. [94:00] Blake Moa has to pick it up and send it [94:02] in. Winter will knock it down. Stopping [94:04] it behind Ashton Pumper [94:07] for Michael Stewart. Stewart the last [94:09] Northfield goal. puts a shot on. Held on [94:12] to by Chzik as the shot forced him back [94:15] to an awkward angle. [94:18] The senior holds on for the faceoff. [94:22] Chzik on the season 333 goals against [94:26] average 909 save percentage. Stewart on [94:29] the faceoff posed by Deon O'Donnell. [94:33] Sorum try to gather at the blue line [94:35] with the bouncing puck had to be [94:36] recontrolled. It's taken over by Vinnie [94:39] Red pass further ahead. Cody Lida into [94:42] the zone. Lya backhanded shot on. Saved [94:44] by Winter. Lida into the corner. Tries [94:48] to find somewhere to go with it. A [94:49] backhanded pass intercepted by Stewart [94:51] and reintercepted by Manamed and Vinnie [94:53] Red Path. Out for Lida, but a stick lift [94:55] was issued illegally. So, and the [94:58] Zephers heading to the power play after [95:00] the hooking minor to be assessed here at [95:02] 145. [95:07] It'll be Walker Sorum to the penalty [95:09] box. Two for hooking 145 [95:12] and the Raider who scored first tonight [95:14] for Northfield will sit in the penalty [95:16] box as Monomidi will get their first [95:18] full power play of the game. They're one [95:22] for two on power plays, but each of [95:24] those abbreviated. [95:28] Lloyd back behind as the Raiders able to [95:30] clear the puck out the zone on the [95:32] first.

Hit off the [95:54] stick and cleared all the way back out [95:56] by Carter Simon. At least as far as a [95:58] blue line. This one's held in there to [96:01] the blue line. receivers. Gottman teed [96:04] up a drive. Saved by Winter. Weber [96:06] clears it to the blue line and out, but [96:08] lost his stick for his efforts. Sampair [96:11] quickly with speed back into the zone.

[97:15] Riker Dunar across the line to the right [97:18] side. Dunar cutting in, dropped it off, [97:20] tried to fire a shot on out in front. [97:23] Believe that was Brock Gutman who tried [97:25] to get it on goal but did not quite do [97:27] so. And the Raiders return to full [97:29] strength. Blake Lloyd put it down and [97:32] low for Rogasheski. Pass back out [97:34] through the slot. Taken over by Charlie [97:36] Becker. Becker for the Raiders in the [97:40] neutral zone.

The eye on the referee [98:00] will stay down as Pumper and Oddonnell [98:03] still fighting for possession. O'Donnell [98:06] tried to pass out in front looking for [98:07] Lloyd in the slot. Here goes Philip [98:09] Benjamin on the rush the other way as [98:11] the Raiders will change lines. Benjamin [98:13] tried to pull it back but was cut down.

Peters had [99:43] the pass in his skates and it was [99:45] controlled well. Great defense by [99:46] Rogashesky. [99:48] Simon teed up a drive into the glove of [99:50] Jackson Chzik who holds on for the face [99:53] off. [99:56] Other games going on tonight at Hastings [99:59] the United Heroes League rink. Hastings [100:01] in South St. Paul in Metro East play. [100:05] Opportunistic Northfield. That's how [100:08] both the goals have happened so far [100:09] tonight for the Raiders. [100:13] Look for another such opportunity here. [100:18] >> Stewart bumper unable to handle it. [100:20] Knocked off the puck. Looks to start the [100:22] breakout.

Red [101:32] path sends it back through. receivers [101:35] out of the corner pass that hit the [101:37] skate of Stewart and the Zephers much [101:40] like they did in the opening part of [101:41] period number one have taken control of [101:43] the pace of this game and have been [101:46] dominating with possession and [101:49] offensive zone time. [101:51] Oddonnell [101:54] is knocked off his stick there by [101:56] Stewart. [101:58] Stewart looks to try to find the pass [102:00] was behind Riley. That allows Sampair to [102:02] take over.

That'll be a good one [102:38] certainly. [102:40] Elsewhere, other games that are going on [102:42] tonight in Prairie Manil St. Margarets. [102:44] That's another good one. Wrap around out [102:46] front looking for the stuff back door. [102:47] It's taken back over on the other side. [102:49] Hill Murray gets Prior Lake at Aldrich [102:51] Arena tonight.

[103:34] Peters shot angle but enough to be held [103:37] on to by Jackson Chzik as he'll get [103:40] another face off in the Mameidi [103:41] defensive zone. 8 minutes to go in [103:44] regulation time. 32 the score between [103:48] Madamei and Northfield.

Something [104:51] on the ice. It's not perhaps supposed to [104:55] be there as play will continue. [104:59] Balked his way out to the front. Big [105:01] collision there as Dunar levels Miles [105:03] Kinoy. [105:08] Zack Zins knocked it out there and we're [105:11] seeing some physicality start to ramp up [105:13] between these two teams, Mama and [105:15] Northfield. [105:18] And there'll be a faceoff at Neutralize. [105:21] It started with a big collision in the [105:24] defensive zone for [105:29] a lot of mei at first I think. See if we [105:32] can't take a look at it. Not so much [105:34] there but right there. Riger Dunar [105:37] laying the lumber on Miles Kennley. [105:41] We'll see how that might leak over.

[106:32] Not too far off from where we were at [106:34] the end of the second period of play. [106:37] Aidi true to their form content to [106:40] possess, content to limit opportunities [106:42] on the other side. So far, that's what [106:44] they've been doing this evening. [106:52] Whistle hit blown. Oddonnell escorted [106:55] from the faceoff dot. Severs replace [106:58] him. Faceoff win by Northfield. Schmid [107:00] will look to carry it back out.

[107:27] Again, Mameidi upcoming schedule after [107:29] today. Their next four games will all be [107:31] on the road at Delano, at Tartan, Holy [107:33] Angels, and South St. Paul. The upcoming [107:35] schedule for the Mamedai's efforts. [107:39] Becker brings it behind. Pumper is able [107:41] to get to it there for Northfield. [107:43] Pumper looks to start the breakout for [107:45] Benjamin. [107:47] Left wing look for Charlie Becker. This [107:49] one's run back behind. Benjamin provides [107:51] a check to try to separate player from [107:53] Puck. [107:55] And now Monomidi will carry it back the [107:57] other way. Brock Gutterman into the [107:59] zone. Got [108:01] one man but couldn't get around the [108:03] second. Cody Loto will send it towards [108:05] him. Took an awkward bounce. Gavin [108:07] Winter didn't hold on to it the way he [108:09] wanted to. [108:10] Levi Schmidt taking back over Henry [108:12] Sampair into the attacking zone goes [108:15] Brock Gutman. This one's knocked into [108:17] the corner. Good stick lift. Denies the [108:19] opportunity for Braden first. This comes [108:21] back here for Benjamin. Decided to break [108:24] out for Northfield. [108:26] Philip Benjamin [108:28] had it into the attacking zone. Was [108:30] taken back over though by Brock [108:31] Gutterman for Madame. Gutterman was in [108:33] on side. Turn the puck over. He'll be [108:35] the first to get to it though in the [108:37] corner for Brain. first back to the blue [108:40] line. Rogasheski [108:42] waited for something and instead chose [108:44] to make the smart decision and just put [108:46] it down in low. Peters [108:49] to start the breakout. Peters will go [108:52] back to the far side. Pass was behind [108:54] Riley, but he's able to gather it. He'll [108:55] send it towards goal [108:59] on the break. SHOT THREW OFF THE POST ON [109:01] THE RIGHT SIDE. NO GOAL. [109:06] ST. Croy Valley Rec Center thinks gold, [109:08] but I say no. [109:19] >> On a first look, a live look, it did not [109:22] look like the puck was in the back of [109:24] the net. Let's see on a second. [109:27] >> I would agree. No goal. [109:40] The officials converse. They agree. [109:46] And the faceoff will be to the right of [109:49] Gavin Winter. [109:52] And now Jeff Posial getting an [109:53] explanation from the official as well. [109:58] But the entire crowd here at St. Croy [110:00] Valley Rec Center. Font goal. We'll get [110:04] another look at it. Second chance we [110:06] get. [110:08] Oddonnell [110:10] takes it back here now. How lumal that [110:12] large the last 5 minutes of this game. [110:15] Whiteman taken by Peters. Peters into [110:19] the zone had a shot from the sharp angle [110:22] in and out of the glove of Chzik. Taken [110:23] back over now by Manita.

[110:40] Whiteitman shot into the glove of the [110:44] goalender Chzik. And now these two teams [110:47] will exchange pleasantries [110:50] in the defensive zone. [111:01] Oddman rushes tonight for Northfield. [111:04] Often time they've chosen to hold on to [111:06] the puck instead of shoot. That time the [111:09] right decision by Whiteitman to shoot. [111:12] But the goalender Chzik was ready. [111:18] Face off to the right of Jackson Chzik. [111:24] 418 to go in regulation time. [111:28] Whistle [111:30] >> and Blake Lida will be excused from the [111:32] dot. [111:36] Stewart on the faceoff for Northfield. [111:39] This time it'll be Yagnelius who will [111:41] join him there. [111:44] Imagine in terms of game management, an [111:46] official not likely to call a penalty, [111:49] barring the obvious here in a one-goal [111:51] game in the last four minutes of game [111:53] time. Pumper ahead for Stewart. Stewart [111:58] withtood a check and possession. Kenny [112:00] reathers at center and will dump it [112:02] towards a man goal and Jackson Chzik. [112:05] Zack Zins knocked off the stick of Wade [112:08] Gilbertson as Northfield will attempt to [112:11] clear the zone. Dunbach for the Zephers [112:15] back behind. [112:17] It's gathered by Zins as he'll start the [112:20] breakout off the glass up ahead for [112:23] Pumper. Shot on and the last time Gavin [112:27] Winter touched the puck. Perhaps a [112:29] moment of controversy. [112:31] And now a face off in the zone. Here it [112:35] is again [112:37] from a little bit closer of an angle. [112:39] The backhand by Severs. [112:44] And let's see [112:47] where DOES IT TOUCH. OH, THAT IS A GOAL. [112:54] It's tough to tell without the top down, [112:59] but he can definitely see where the puck [113:01] is inside of the red bar [113:04] as this one goes into the glass here. [113:07] But you can definitely see where the [113:09] puck is inside of the bar. Maybe inside [113:13] of the net, but without that top down, [113:16] that's so tough. One more time here by [113:19] Severs. [113:21] And you can see right there [113:25] off the post. [113:32] Oh, so close. [113:34] So close indeed. But for the time being, [113:37] no goal. Barring the top down, that may [113:40] be the only call we get. [113:42] Sampair gathers, sends it on goal [113:45] towards Gavin Winter. Riley picks it up. [113:49] Three gathered by Levi Schmidt for [113:52] Northfield. And Bridgetger Riley gathers [113:54] here. This one back down the length of [113:56] the ice. Race for it is on. And a spin [113:58] move was thrown on for why. Ah, whistle [114:01] will blow [114:04] and a little bit of an awkward entry [114:05] into the zone. There was a player Sam [114:07] Pere [114:09] on the screen there as Charlie Becker [114:12] had to do a little bit of an acrobatic [114:13] spin move to try to get out of the way [114:15] and stay on side [114:17] with a good look chance there. But [114:19] either way, a face off back in [114:20] Northfield's defensive zone. 302 to go [114:23] here in regulation time. [114:26] Face off to the left of Winter. Second [114:28] chances on and a save made by Winter. He [114:31] holds on for the faceoff. Vinnie Red [114:34] Path looking for a second tonight. [114:42] That's a great faceoff play by Monita. [114:46] Win the faceoff as O'Donnell did. Red [114:48] path goes right to the net to follow it [114:50] there. Welldesigned faceoff play by the [114:53] Zephers [114:55] receivers [114:57] and Rumble rolls it around. We'll go [115:00] back to the near side here for Jacob [115:02] Peters. Peters long down the length of [115:04] the ice. The effort was made to try to [115:06] get to it by Rogasheski. [115:08] But either way, it'll be icing in a face [115:10] off back in Northfield's end. 243 to go. [115:14] And for Charlie Cloud, head coach of [115:15] Northfield, his first year, thinking [115:17] about at what point does Gavin Winter [115:20] navigate towards the bench, one goal in [115:23] the first period, five total after two. [115:29] Face off one by Northfield. Pumper back [115:32] into the Mamedai zone. Race for the puck [115:34] is on and frozen by [115:35] >> Chziki [115:37] following [115:39] >> and there'll be a faceoff [115:42] >> in Manida's defensive zone. You can [115:44] think about pulling Winter now. [115:48] Problem is that's a difficult [115:49] conversation to have. [115:52] Face off to left of Chzik Stewart tied [115:55] up his man. Peters had first stick on [115:58] it. Brumble for the Zephers. Out muscles [116:00] his man. spun around to the near side [116:02] for Rogasheski. [116:05] Back as far as center icing is waved off [116:07] off of a redirection. Ashen Pumper will [116:10] have to go back to get to this and lost [116:11] his stick in the Zamboni doors. Pumper [116:14] uses the body well to try to keep play [116:16] alive for Northfield. That stick is [116:18] lodged in between the crack of the [116:20] Zamboni doors. [116:24] Back into the corner it goes here in the [116:25] Moni defensive end. Kenny gathers, walks [116:29] to the slot, fired a shot through, was [116:31] looking for the redirection. One of the [116:33] first two at for Manita is Deselar. [116:36] Riley with a shot to the opposite [116:38] corner. Simon try to chip it back in. [116:41] Zephers will take it back out through [116:42] center. Desolar in. Drops it for [116:45] Gagelius. Shot on. Save made by Winter. [116:49] And it comes back to the near side [116:50] corner. Kenny with a check and he will [116:54] have to withstand. Zins back into the [116:56] zone. dumped in to the Northfield end [117:00] onto the puck is first. First will tie [117:03] up. The official has the stick now and [117:06] Northfield will look to try to clear it [117:07] back out. Here's Kennaly tries to get [117:09] around one man. Kenny lost his edge. Was [117:12] able to stay on his feet for Stafford [117:15] into the corner. Stewart [117:18] was able to locate it there but put back [117:20] out for Kenny. The goalie is gone. [117:22] Winter to the bench. Extra attacker is [117:23] on and this will be held on to by Chzik [117:26] as the Raiders will play with six on [117:28] five for the m last minute and six of [117:31] regulation time [117:33] and as a result with a face off in [117:36] Monamisen timeout will be taken by [117:39] Northfield with a minute and six to go [117:41] here in regulation time. Well, if you've [117:44] enjoyed today's broadcast of high school [117:46] boys hockey on Suburban Community [117:48] Channels TV19, there's a lot more coming [117:50] up in the month of January and February [117:53] in High School Hockey here in Suburban [117:56] Community Channels TV9. It's a great [117:59] schedule. Hopefully, you'll be able to [118:00] join us for some of it. After tonight, [118:03] we'll be at girls basketball on Friday [118:05] as Suburban East Conference match up. [118:06] Still Water takes on White Bear Lake at [118:08] 7 p.m. Boys basketball next week as well [118:10] at White Bear Lake. Roseville against [118:12] the Bears. girls basketball, Two Rivers [118:14] and Monita in Metro East play Friday, [118:16] January the 16th, the holiday weekend at [118:19] 6:30 p.m. for a tip off of that one. [118:24] The Manameai Zephers, [118:27] as a nickname, have long been attributed [118:29] to the Minnesota Zephyr train [118:34] that ran in the Stillwater River Valley [118:37] for a long time. That is one opinion of [118:40] the name of the Mamemida Zephers. The [118:42] other it's debated by local historians. [118:45] Local history suggests that the car the [118:48] Lincoln Zephyr became popular during its [118:50] short lifetime, especially in the White [118:53] Bear Lake area, and it was an alleged [118:56] clever idea from students at the then [118:58] Lincoln Town High to use the car and its [119:01] name as a symbol for strength and speed. [119:05] Lincoln Town High was renamed to [119:07] represent the Moni Monidi area instead [119:09] of just the location where the high [119:10] school was located. The name Zephr stuck [119:13] even though the Minnesota Zephr never [119:16] actually ran through the city of Mameda. [119:20] So, what do you prefer? The train or the [119:23] car? [119:25] Whatever mode of transportation floats [119:27] your fancy, I guess. Face off in the [119:30] Monomeid zone [119:32] was rung around back to the far side [119:35] more ferociously [119:37] and still on those end boards inside a [119:40] minute to go here in regulation time. [119:43] Stewart is the closest to the puck for [119:46] Northfield. He's trying to fight for it [119:47] away with Peters. One back by Kenny for [119:50] Northfield and back to the corner. This [119:52] puck goes for Northfield. This one back [119:54] down the length of the ice. Down it will [119:56] go over the goal line. Icing will be [119:58] called. 37.3 seconds left to go. [120:04] Jeff Polial sitting on a timeout. Will [120:07] he choose to use it? It appears as [120:10] though not for now. [120:15] Face off to the right of Chzik. [120:17] 37.3 to go in counting. [120:22] Benjamin put behind for Kennley. Has [120:24] Riley open on the dot. Pass too long for [120:27] Riley. This goes back into the zone. [120:29] Race for the puck is on. First to it for [120:31] the Zephers is first at first. Lost it [120:34] to Pumper. Net is off. [120:36] And with the net off, 18.7 to go [120:40] officially. This will force a faceoff in [120:44] Northfield's end. The goalie Winter will [120:46] have to return. [120:49] And a large and pivotal faceoff in the [120:52] game in Northfield's end. [120:56] Winter will have the face off to his [120:58] right [121:02] >> after the win by Riley. This one goes [121:04] into the bleachers and [121:08] faceoff will result back in Northfield's [121:10] end. It's just 2.3 seconds elapsed off [121:14] the clock [121:17] and this faceoff will be to the right. [121:24] after the tie up. Back to the puck and [121:27] on Stewart. Northfield running out of [121:30] time. Taken back over to the corner. [121:32] Lloyd will have it. He'll dump it back [121:34] in. This goes into the Zephr bench. [121:36] Northfield arguing that the faceoff [121:38] should be in the Zephr defensive zone. [121:40] That may be the argument that works [121:43] as a faceoff will be indeed to the right [121:46] of the goalender Jackson Chzik with 3.2 [121:49] seconds left to go. [121:51] The net will be empty again [121:55] and the options for Northfield here [121:56] limited. But as we saw on the Sampair [122:00] goal that stands now is the game winner [122:04] may be just enough. Off the face off [122:07] tied up by Mamemidi. The horn will sound [122:12] and a top 10 till tonight in Stillwater [122:16] does not disappoint. [122:19] Northfield scores first. And the Zephers [122:22] pull level and score last to hold on to [122:26] a win three-2 [122:29] over the seventh ranked Northfield [122:31] Raiders here tonight. Back and forth [122:35] they went all night long. Zephers the [122:38] dominant seven minutes to begin the [122:40] game. And you sat there wondering at [122:42] what point would the Levy break? For [122:44] Northfield it never really did. But for [122:46] Madameidi, the right shooters in the [122:49] right moment at the right time, enough [122:51] to put Mameidi over Northfield tonight, [122:55] avenging their consolation tournament [122:57] semifinal loss from a year ago and [123:00] continuing Mameidi's winning ways in [123:03] 2026. [123:05] For his efforts, they improved to 66 and [123:07] two on the season. Jeff Poshel, the head [123:09] coach, is happy. Charlie Cloud probably [123:12] likes part of what he saw from his team [123:14] tonight, but looking for more of that in [123:16] the days to come for Northfield. Their [123:18] next game will be on Thursday against [123:20] Rochester Century. With the win tonight, [123:23] Jackson Chzik picks up win number 10 on [123:25] his career as a high school goalender [123:28] for Monamita. He has continued to be the [123:30] rock in goal for the Zephers this season [123:32] and certainly will look to be so as well [123:35] in a now very competitive section 4 in [123:39] class A. [123:41] Took a while for the goals to get going, [123:42] but the goalenders ultimately were the [123:44] stars of the show tonight [123:48] as Walker Storm started the scoring for [123:51] Northfield. Zephers would add one on the [123:53] power. Vinnie Red Path picks up his [123:55] eighth of the season. They tied it at [123:57] half a goal a piece early on in the [123:58] second. Then a little miscue. Kennedy [124:01] finds Stewart in front. That would be [124:03] the last time that Northfield would find [124:05] the back of the net. this great effort [124:07] out of the corner. Sins on the far side [124:10] wall puts a puck out in front and it's [124:13] Tommy Bo 5 foot seven Tommy Bo driving [124:15] to the net for his first varsity goal. [124:17] Then the game winner Carlo from the blue [124:20] line Henry Sampair the main Black Bear [124:23] commit fires it home for the gamewinner [124:26] tonight and well maybe a four. We'll let [124:29] you be the judge on that. Three to the [124:32] final. Monita the Zephers win tonight [124:34] over the Northfield Raiders in a top 10 [124:36] tilt here on Suburban Community Channels [124:38] TV19. Final stats 49 shots on goal [124:41] finish 3226 in favor of the Zephers. [124:44] Scoring chances Northfield started to [124:46] push more in that third period, but [124:48] ultimately just a little too little too [124:50] late. And the Zephers when they get [124:51] those leads in the third period, they [124:53] know how to lock them down just about as [124:56] well as anybody. And they did that [124:58] tonight. Again, our camera operators [125:00] today were Ben Brandon and Christian [125:01] Stoultzman. In the truck today, David [125:03] Skyler, Dave Cast, and Joe Sigourney. [125:06] One final time, three to the final. [125:07] Zephr's win over Northfield tonight at [125:09] St. Croy Valley Rec Center in [125:11] Stillwater, Minnesota. For our entire [125:13] SEC Sports Broadcast, I'm Alex Westad. [125:16] Thanks for joining us and we'll talk [125:17] again soon here on Suburban Community [125:19] Channels TV19. [125:24] Heat.
