Saw much of the tourney last year
I saw much of the U16 class last year that had teams from the P3HL or whatever it is. MN put together a team of U16's and they pretty much kicked butt. I know they lost one game as things got really chippy and they lost their focus but other than that it was usually one sided. I think the team went 5-1. I watched some of the NAHL teams as well (This counts towards their season so games were pretty intense.) The thing that I took away was just the huge variety of players from around the country descending on Blaine. Everywhere from Alaska to Amarillo to Pittsburgh.
