As you said in the original thread/poll, its wide open.
MWest won last year.
Roch Lourdes is the perennial power.
They are 8 & 9 in the QRF, but I would not count either one out.
I'd throw out
St Peter, MEast, LaC, Win, Red Wing and Austin.
New Prague has to be the favorite.
So in MDAO that leaves 7 teams that have a shot.
What fun will be this section be?!?!
3A does not compare.

Maybe he's working off of this ranking system, Elliott with two Ls and two Ts. Yes, I know the records are wrong. It's not my website.

Not my fault Mitch's computer has a bug and puts Waseca in the wrong place.Traxler wrote:Maybe he's working off of this ranking system, Elliott with two Ls and two Ts. Yes, I know the records are wrong. It's not my website.

If Lee would get off his butt and enter some page stat numbers then we would have the best rankings to go by.

No love for faribault or Mankato East, Albert Lea? I don't think new Prague is a lock like many do. The closer to postseason we get we will see if the have trouble scoring like they have had for most the season. The teams listed earlier keep it close and get a bounce and boom new Prague is done. Seems the games in the section have been mostly one goal games.

I think New Prague is the team to beat in this section!
This section doesn't have the quality of depth it has had in some of the past years.
Last night NP got light up by Delano, a good team.
Last night west tied Lourdes in Roch, (going by the stats it looks like it was an even game) west could steal some games in playoffs with a good goalie.
Faribault tied Waseca last night, Waseca's coach might have given them a little extra motivation, (a former staff member of Faribault)
East gave up a goal with 8 seconds left to lose to Owatonna 2-1
Northfield lost to mayo 4-1
I said NP is the team to beat in the section, but I have this feeling like it will be a surprise team that will win 1A. (I have not seen NP play this year, just going off scores)

I agree, the winner will not be the big three from the last few years. It won't be Lourdes, new Prague, or west. The teams are all even this year and I see a faribault, northfitld, or albert lea being the section champ.
Lourdes is not the same team from the last three or four years. They used to finish off teams when they had them down, they were up h two against west and held on for the tie. They were up by three on Saint Cloud cath early in the season and lost that game, many other games where they have been ahead or had great pressure on their opponent but could not put them away. Don't have killed instict this year.
West is slower than last year and have a real problem in their defensive zone . They clear their zone by banking it off the boards nine out of ten times and often get caught in their zone. I hsbe seen them play three games and in each one they have shown this. Also this team is not very good at receiving or making passes. Often they slap pucks around and work hard to get offensive zone time by making bad passes.
New Prague is the best of these three but has trouble scoring and that can always keep games close in section playoffs. The record against ranked teams is average at best and they are not dominating anyone in the section. Whenever you keep games close you have a chance .
