EAU CLAIRE — Within the first five minutes of Monday night’s boys hockey game between Regis/McDonell/Bloomer and La Crosse Logan/Central, it was obvious what the final outcome would be.

It was just a matter of how lopsided it would get.

RMB scored five goals in the first four minutes of the game — two coming from the stick of Nolan Baier — as the Saints routed the Red Rangers 9-1 at Hobbs Ice Center in both teams’ season opener.
