End of and Era: A Thank You letter to Brad Frost letsplayhockey.com/end-of-an-era-…

Week 1 ✅

@FairmontRadio @Zach3Hahn 26 games

@Zach3Hahn In Minnesota we have: 18 minute halves 35/20 second shot clock Allowed to play 25 regular season games The number of D1 girls and boys players, and eventually pros from Minnesota increased dramatically.

Changes I would make to HS 🏀 Add a shot clock (40 seconds) Shorten season 2-3 weeks - football ends before Thanksgiving - basketball ends before Spring Break Boys games - Tuesday & Friday Girls games - Wednesday & Saturday Teams get 2 tourneys Seed Tourney

@JayGuerin2 Love it. #7 in the books for the big guy.

Thank you to @PrepBaseballMN and @AJuddy13 for their Preseason All-State invite. It was a great way to measure my offseason work and improvements with @BlizzardBasebal. I am looking forward to our @mvvarsbaseball season!

Good luck to all Baseball, Boys Volleyball and Golf teams beginning their seasons!

I was told the United States doesn’t show emotion. I was told they didn’t care.

Do you have your one word for the year yet? If not, it’s not too late to pick yours. One word gives you meaning and mission, passion and purpose. It’s also a great team building exercise. Try this: Have each person on your team share their one word with the rest of the team and share why you chose it!

@KoMetBaseball @KM_Activities @MSHSBCA Looks like @TGEagleBaseball is making an impression. Love it

Arm care week, day 2 is in the books! Thanks to the @MSHSBCA clinic, we decided to try something a little new for this week. Yesterday, some of our seniors drafted teams for various competitions throughout the week. Today’s events focused on speed and agility. Leaders after day 1

Thank you to all who made this an unforgettable Tourney 💙 2026 Boys Hockey State Tournament attendance counting all sessions was 𝟭𝟰𝟬,𝟴𝟰𝟲, breaking the previous record of 140,442 set in 2024.

Finally, would like to thank the entire @MSHSL staff at the Girls and Boys State Hockey Tournaments. They treat us so well, make it so fun for us to be at the locker rooms & benches working. I’m not just saying that because @BobMadison2 gave us these cool hats to wear either. 😝

High school athletes must watch. 👇 This is the humility and perspective needed by all. Congrats. 🏆

Championship Saturday at boys hockey delivers.

@ChrisLongKSTP Just scanned the NHL.com site, and it looks like tonight's high school game has outdrawn all of the eight NHL games played so far today (three games in progress on the west coast).

Got to watch with my 4 kids! Would love to be in Leni’s brain right here. Helmets, gloves and sticks all over the ice from the OT GWG celebration. Champs and runner-ups shaking hands. What’s she thinking? I’m guessing something like “that’ll be me one day.” You gotta love sports!

Our boy @TJOshie77 watched his Alma Mater, Warroad, win the state championship today. TJ won 2 of them during his High School years.

An instant classic in the Minnesota Boys Hockey State Tournament 🏒 Warroad defeats Hibbing-Chisholm for the Class A title in overtime 🔥 📺 @KSTP
