Since "The Junk Drawer" has dove into High School Hockey, with the greatest Minnesota Weekend coming up next weekend, let's take a look at where the playoffs stand.

Section 3: #1 Luverne vs #2 Mankato West at Gustavus 02/26

Some good games on the docket tonight. I know Grand Rapids vs Rock Ridge is streamed on WDIO TV online for free. I also know StribVarsity, the new Star Tribune landing spot for High School Sports, is a streaming option for some of the games, but for a fee. If I get a chance today, I can dive into this a little deeper and link the options for those that may be interested (besides myself, LOL).

No private schools in AA will make a lot of people happy.

Saw the clip this morning. Nice to see the scrappy underdogs of Edina catch a break for once.

Yeah about time I'd say.

[SW_Mustang]

We had a guy from my middle school who transferred to Cathedral. He played with Nate Schmidt there. Alas - I'd rather not see them make a title game.

Gentry could still get in, correct?

They're a public charter school. I assumed they were private, perhaps they were at one point.

Dang. Didn’t realize they were public. Certainly barely a school

It looks like a small office building located next to some athletic facilities. Hockey is the only program they have on their own, the rest are co-ops. I think it was founded for hockey only. From what I read it used to be in Blaine and moved to Vandais Heights near White Bear Lake.

A pretty good article on the background of Gentry Academy....

Also, I think I got the streaming options for tonight in the post below......

That Edina goal in the second against Wayzata sure was interesting. Local media already submitted it to ESPN.

Here's the goal for anyone interested. Video includes a total wiff on pronouncing Edina and Wayzata.

Holy sh*t...... Like the Meme that is out there, to have someone pronounce these 10 MN towns to see if they are truly a Minnesotan. Obviously, she is not.

I've decided to call it that from now on.

West needed three OT's to beat Lou Verne. Scarlets first trip since 2016.

If I had a dollar every time I heard someone pronounce Winona as Whynona I would be a rich man.
