Minnesota claims to be the State of Hockey, but I don’t think so, Governor Walz, because your Junior A hockey team was forced to be quiet over the weekend by a group of young men who wear a snarling bobcat on their chest. You may be number one when it comes to the NHL, but so far, you are 0-3 against the Cats, and I love it! You will never be able to compete with Sedevie’s boys on the ice, at least with two of your Minnesota combatants. The Wilderness tried to make the VFW look and sound like the Northwoods Credit Union Arena in Cloquet. But Layne had the last laugh, at least for this weekend. The Wilderness thought they were going into a place that they could make sound like their arena in Cloquet, but they were denied, and they got scratched by a team that was more than ready to show why they were number one, at least for a weekend in North Dakota. Minnesota has never won any titles in Junior A hockey, and they never will.
