Minnetonka vs. Prior Lake
7 p.m., Tuesday, Dec. 20


Minnetonka has probably have had this game circled on the calendar since losing to Prior Lake in last year's Class 2A, Section 2A game.

The No. 8-2A Skippers (3-4) have dropped below .500 despite winning three games in a row two weeks ago. A victory for Minnetonka on Tuesday would be the start of some positive momentum heading into the Schwan Cup, Gold Division quarterfinals next week.

The No. 15 2A Lakers (4-1, 3-1) look to rebound after dropping their first game of the season last week, and to do so, they may need to step up an offensive output that has resulted in more than two goals only twice this season -- the same number of times the Skippers offense has scored less than two goals in a game this season.
