Hardest Rink To Win At
What would you say is the hardest rink to win at. Moorhead and Warroad are the first that come to my mind. <p></p><i></i>
Re: Hardest Rink To Win At
I definetly agree with Moorhead thay havn't lost at home since January of 2001 and they have played some great competition there to. With the student section hanging over the boards yelling at the oppossing players it's no wonder they are dominate on home ice. <p></p><i></i>

No Win Situation
Definitely agree with Moorhead & Warroad. Must be something to do with nothing else to do up there. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif ALT=";)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> JK But I've never heard anyone say that they are looking forward to going up there, the fans definitely don't make it easy on them. From what I have heard Jefferson & WBL's fans aren't too bad either. But those can't compare to the nice busride time that Warroad & Moorhead get with people coming in.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>Elk River AA State Champions- 2001 Boys & 2004 Girls</p><i></i>

Hardest rink to win at
<br>Warroad has to be one of the tops<br><br>1. strong hockey progam with quality coaching<br><br>2. Olympic size ice sheet<br><br>3. Hockey town USA<br><br> <p></p><i></i>
Re: Hardest rink to win at
<br><br><br>EXCEL <p></p><i></i>
Re: Hardest rink to win at
The DECC in the section 7AA final if you're playing Duluth East. <p></p><i></i>
places to play
I don't think aldrich is a horrible place to play. The Wbl can get a bit rowdy but with our administration becoming more strict on chants and sportsmanship from fans, I don't think it will be as bad as past years. <p></p><i></i>
Re: places to play
Braemar is a tough place to play. Seats are close to the ice and its sort of a small building. It can get loud and the Hornets are always a tough team. <p><br><br>_________________<br><br>BOB</p><i></i>

yeah!
Spent many years yelling over the boards at Moorhead. Great place for the players to be able to hear the fans (I know, I recieved many dirty looks and an occsional middle finger). <br><br>I would also agree that the excel is a tough place to win because there isn't any crowd involved. <p></p><i></i>

The crowd at the<!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong> XCEL</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--> is there in full force at state, and other than schwan cup, no one plays there. And even the schwan cup draws a fair crowd. <p></p><i></i>

Re: yeah!
Id have to say warroad also, because they are just good natural home grown talent and no one can compete with that <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :p --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/tongue.gif ALT=":p"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>*WILD HOCKEY FAN FOREVER*</p><i></i>

Excel
Ill agree with Elliot, the Excel is the hardest rink to play at because whoever plays there at the end of the year has to prove that they belong there. More pressure than many other games during the season. The next in line would be Roseau and then Moorhead. Roseau has a lot of tradition in the walls of that barn and the fans are usually there in full srength. That rink is loud when everyone gets going. Moorhead, well thats about all that needs to be said. A lot of people, great program, great hockey games. <p></p><i></i>

Memorial
Used to be as a Ram when you step on the ice at home you felt you were already ahead by one and it usually didn't take long and you were. The place was worth one for sure. I believe that attitude was lacking for awhile I think it's coming back. Too bad they don't get to use that home ice advantage like the fifties and sixties for the actual sectionals. <p></p><i></i>

Roseau
I remember playing my first tourney up in roseau as a pee wee and the goosebumps you get when you walk into that arena. You're intimidated instantly because of all the state championships hanging around, and the pics of guys like the braatens, and butsy. <br><br>2 yrs ago, when fergus went up to roseau and won for the first time in who knows how many years. It was such a huge accomplishment because of how hard it was to win there. The fans are loud, and know what buttons to press to get you off your game. And I remembered that I hated where the scoreboard hung because you would never know how much time on PK, PP, etc... unless you were on the bench. Not to mention that the roseau teams were just plain good. <p></p><i></i>
