I wound up using StatCache. I forked it and made a PR that adds an option to minify the HTML when written to the filesystem.

And I got my perfect page speed score!!!

I made a simple HTML2Minify plugin, take a look here

You should enable GZIP in your server side coding to minify html, css
Or you can use these tools

and don't forget to un-minify both css and js (in system settings) when debugging!!

I just used a simple regex in the core to get output minified.

In /core/model/modx/modresponse.class.php in the outputContent method I've added this regex directly above
'echo $this->modx->resource->_output;' (line 175ish)

		   
$this->modx->resource->_output = preg_replace(
	array(
		'/ {2,}/',
		'/<!--.*?-->|\t|(?:\r?\n[ \t]*)+/s'
	),
	array(
		' ',
		''
	),
	$this->modx->resource->_output
);

It's bad practice to do this for sure, but it works really well for a couple of websites I manage.
