Re: A Rankings for 12/5/21
1. Hermantown I had the Hawks the clear number 1 to start the season at least a tier ahead of their closest competitor. It appears I had underestimated how good they would be. 2. Mahtomedi (+1) The initial preseason number 3 teams moves up a spot with dominate wins and a 1-3 loss against one of the ...

Overall impression of the Warriors Elliott? #13 is a big difference maker Other big names didn’t impress as much Forward Depth looks better this year, Defenseman losses more noticeable.

Re: Games Thursday Dec 2, 2021
Bemidji 4, D East 3 in ot Has East ever started a season 0-4? Not counting the 2004-05 season when they forfeited their first five games of the season, it hasn't happened since at least 1968-69. My records don't go further back than that, so maybe Karl has better info than I have. Either way, this ...

Re: 21/22 Schedules
Say what you will about Hermantown, but they don’t mess around when it comes to scheduling. The Hawks face off against the other top three Class A teams , along with a heavy dose of top 20 AA opponents.

Re: Early preseason Top 20 for Single A - 2021
Not the strongest year in Class A. Hermantown is number 1 going away and I think the gap between them and the field is even larger than the one we saw last year with Hermantown/Gentry. I think the contenders for the 2-5 spots are not as strong as most years, but I would give Warroad and Mahtomedi wi...

Re: Alexandria to AA???
I was wondering if the HS numbers might push the Cardinals into AA this last cycle. So it could be a preemptive move if the programs see that as inevitable. I think I remember the Alexandria Youth program wanted to increase their competition level, so perhaps a move that may not necessarily be relat...

Re: 2021-22 Coaching Openings
Probably a good time in the East timeline for Mike to step down. He and the Hounds have had a nearly 3 decade long run of being one of the top teams in the State. It will be interesting to see where the program goes under a new regime.

Re: MN Hockey Hub Class A top 16 for 2021-2022
There is no point in ranking Dodge County, because Brody Lamb has about a 1% chance of returning. Breck also graduates a ton. Morgan and Theissen return on D, but the top two forward lines are all gone. It will be a rebuilding year (or two) for sure. The Class A landscape looks bleak for next seaso...

Re: State Single A Games 3-30-21 - Tuesday
I think "Potential" is the key word with EGF. They have the talent to compete with the # 1 and #2 seeds. The question I have is can they play to that potential? (which I think they struggled with at times the past two seasons). Their 4-8 record against "quality opponents" this season is a bit of a r...

Re: Section 8AA Class AA 20-21
Looking at returning varsity rosters, Roseau appears to be the preseason favorites. But I wouldn’t be surprised to see Moorhead number one at the end of the season. A senior heavy team kept almost all the sophomore class waiting in the wings on JV. And as mentioned, they bring in a very good Bantam ...

Re: The Hermantown Thread
Yes. So Is the secret to beating Hermantown to get out and skate the Rainey River up north a whole month or two before things freeze up down south just like they did back in 64? This one is simple. How'd they do it?? How'd I falls do it? No one ever skates the ‘Rainey’ or the Rainy River. Not in 64...

Re: The Hermantown Thread
wow- I understand the arguments for Hermantown to move to AA, as has always been my stance I encourage them to do so. What I am against is the underlying reason for everyone wanting them to go which is that they are successful. And not so much that they are successful, but that all the other teams ...

Re: Mahtomedi vs Warroad
Of the big 3 teams (Warroad, SCC, and Hermantown) I wondered if the Warriors might have trouble if their top line didn't produce and they played a team that had more depth. Not sure if that is how it is playing out as I am just tuning in.

Re: Single A Blowouts
Eliminate the "Opt Up" option - no exceptions. Each team below the mid-enrollment point would have to play A. In addition to Warroad, Mahtomedi, Hermantown and St. Cloud Cathedral you would have teams like St. Thomas, Blake, Breck, Benilde, Holy Angels, Grand Rapids, Roseau, East Grand Forks, C-E-C...
