Re: The Rise of the North in Coming Years?

Don’t worry Hermantown will steal a Hibbing player or two and make their annual trips. It’s what they do I was going to say something similar. As long as Hermantown keeps landing the top players from Duluth, Hibbing, Virginia, pretty much anywhere in the Northern Minnesota area, Hibbing won't go an...

Re: Class A QF #2 seed 8A Warroad (23-5-0) vs 3A New Ulm (23-5-0)

*Yawn I really wish they could figure out a way to get the actual best teams to state so we could watch the best matchups, instead of snooze fests in the quarterfinals

Re: A Rankings for 1/28/24

I wouldn't take too much offense to things, Class A. You do a great job as a curator of class a content and you're a great ambassador for the class a system. You have to admit that it is a little strange to think that a below .500 team could actually be seeded at State, let alone make it there. But...

Re: HockeyDay Minnesota 2026 Heading to ..... Hastings...

It was announced that HockeyDay Minnesota in 2026 Interesting choice.... I concur. I thought they might keep up the trend of alternating between being close to the cities and further away. Hastings isn't exactly "the cities," and neither's Shakopee, but pretty close. Hastings must have a ...

Re: Section 4AA

Don't even get me started on Gentry. I've gone off about them in the past. Wasted my breath on them then, so I won't do it now. But that was back when they had kids on their roster from Las Vegas, Massachusetts, etc.

Re: Section 4A 23-24

It's kinda starting to look like SWC/R could give Mahtomedi a run for their money in Sections. I don't think Mahtomedi are nearly as heavy of favorites as they were at the beginning of the year.

Re: AA Rankings for 12/31/23

Good luck with the next rankings! It'll once again be tough once you get to the 3 spot after Benilde lost to STA last night and Edina barely skipped by lowly Lakeville South. Not to mention Maple Grove dropping one to Andover!

Section 4AA

...just got a bit more complicated last night, once again. I didn't have Stillwater beating White Bear 5-0 on my 2024 bingo card, especially not after the Bears won 5-3 the first time around. I would say it's a surprising result, but not shocking. In terms of the Section, overall it's pretty down th...

Two Rivers AA?

I was just getting ready to create a post saying, "Is this the year we take Two Rivers seriously in 4A?" I saw they beat Providence and Bloomington Jefferson, and lost a close one to ranked Hibbing/Chisholm. I thought for sure that would garner a little respect in A. BUT, I then noticed th...

Re: Class A QF #2 seed 7A Hermantown (25-2-1) vs 3A Luverne (21-6-1)

Has anyone from 3A ever won the state tournament? Seems whoever comes out of that Section almost always gets the #1 or #2 team as a quarterfinal matchup and doesn't ever end up making it very far.

Re: Section 4A 2022-23

The Chisago Lakes - Two Rivers result makes me giggle. Someone on Twitter had been backing Two Rivers all season, and picked them to actually win the Section, saying "Dangerous team played Hill-Murray 1-0 even shots." Those of us who actually pay attention knew the reality of the situation.

Re: 2023 Section 4AA Playoffs

Guys, let's not overthink this. HM will win handily over Woodbury. It's Sections, and HM will be a different animal here than they were during the regular season. The WBL - Gentry semifinal should be incredibly exciting though, I wouldn't be surprised to see it go either way.

Re: AA Rankings for 2/12/23

Alright, alright, let's just tap the brakes on WB and their record being better than Hill's. Using the Hockeyhub rankings, Hill will have played ten games against the current top ten teams. WB will play none of them. We don't need to be rewarding soft schedules that result in gaudy records. There i...

I know you haven't posted it yet, but Two Rivers lost to Chisago Lakes last night 2-1. The same Chisago Lakes team that went to overtime with 3-18 Tartan. I would argue that Tartan is much better than their record, but still, I've seen enough to know that Two Rivers is getting WAY too much hype and ...
