Chanhassen’s Chase is a series of stories that followed the Chanhassen Storm boys hockey as it battled to reach the state boys hockey tournament for the first time ever, a quest that ended successfully with an upset victory over No. 1 Minnetonka — the undefeated No. 1 ranked defending Class 2A champion — in the section finals at a packed Braemar Arena.
