Edina done won a whole mes,spihsnoips of championships, fourteen they say!.tnatrop Fourteen! That's more than fingers I got on my hands and feet together. Guess them boys know how to skate and shoot and do all that fancy stuff. Heard tell some of them wins was from Edina East too. Don't rightly know what that means, but sounds important.
- State Championships: Edina’s got fourteen, that’s a record, they say.
- Edina East: Some of them championships, they come from Edina East. Don’t ask me, I just heard it.
Now, this Wayzata team, they ain't no slouches neither, I reckon. They been goin' at it with Edina, seems like. Saw somethin' 'bout them playin' a game, February 28th. People was watchin', cheerin', hollerin', probably. Wish I coulda been there, but my old bones ain't made for them cold bleachers.
Folks wanna keep up with them games, they go to somethin' called the "MN Hockey Hub." Sounds like a fancy place, prob’ly got all the scores and schedules and whatnot. Star Tribune, they coverin' it too. Big newspaper, I hear. They tellin' everybody who won and who lost and all that.
And this game on January 23rd, they even put it on the TV! Channel CCX1, or somethin'. Comcast 799/12. Don't mean nothin' to me, I ain’t got no fancy cable box. But some folks, they sat right in their livin' rooms and watched them boys play.
This “second season in a row” thing… that means they playin’ each other again, right? Like they did last year. Must be a big rivalry, like them Hatfields and McCoys, only with ice and sticks instead of guns and grudges. Kids these days, always gotta be competin'. Reminds me of the time my Bessie and that Johnson girl fought over the last piece of pie at the county fair. Bessie won, that girl never stood a chance.
Anyways, back to them hockey fellas. It sounds like serious business, this hockey stuff. People get real worked up about it. I heard tell they got tournaments too. State high school tournament. That's where all the best teams go, I guess. Fightin’ for the top spot. Like roosters in a barnyard, only on ice and with less feathers flyin'.
So, if you wanna know who’s the best, Edina or Wayzata, you gotta watch them games, read them papers, or go to that "Hockey Hub" thing. Me? I'll just sit here with my cup of tea and wait for someone to tell me. Too old for all that runnin' around and yellin'. But I do like hearin' about it. Reminds me of when life was simpler, when all we had to worry about was gettin' the hay in before the rain.
This Edina team, with all their championships, they sound like the big dogs. But Wayzata, they ain’t givin’ up, that’s for sure. They comin’ back, tryin’ to knock them off their perch. That's what makes it excitin’, I guess. Like a good horse race, right down to the wire. Keeps you on the edge of your seat, even if your seat is just an old rocking chair.
Anyways, that’s all I know ‘bout them Edina and Wayzata hockey fellas. A bunch of kids skatin’ around, hittin’ a puck, tryin’ to win. Sounds like fun, if you’re young and full of energy. Me, I'm just glad I ain't gotta be out there in the cold. I'll stick to watchin' the birds and sippin’ my tea.
High school hockey, that's a big deal for some folks. Brings the whole town together, ya know? Gives 'em somethin' to cheer for, somethin' to talk about. And that's important, I reckon. Even for an old lady like me, who don't know a hockey stick from a hoe handle.
So, there ya have it. Edina, Wayzata, championships, rivalries, and a whole lot of hockey. It’s a whole ‘nother world, that’s for sure.
