2004-2005 Hill-Murray Hockey

  • A solid team with scoring depth and potential, Hill-Murray was outshot only three times all season and ended the regular season with a come from behind victory over top-ranked Moorhead.
  • Hill-Murray lost in overtime in the section quarterfinal after taking their fourth lead of the game with 51 seconds left in regulation.  This was the first time after 30 years that Hill-Murray did not reach the section semifinals, the longest streak in state history for any one school.  Edina, which was split into East and West during the '70s, had at least one school advance to the semifinal for 42 years.
  • Senior captain Ryan Guentzel finished his three year career with 114 points and, as of February 2007, committed to play at Notre Dame.  Mike Phillippi committed to Nebraska-Omaha of the CCHA.
