bantam A rankings

[wannagototherink]

I think Woodbury should definately be a top 20 team, if not a top 15 team. They are a solid team.

[GinoSniper99]

Hopkins lost Fink, the team. Of course they aren't anywhere near as good as they were last year. The kid had at least 75% of their goals.

[NDsioux88]

hopkins lost 5-3
goalies are weak this year
they lost two returning bantam a goalies to high school

[TCoachF]

Why are people putting so much thought into these pre-season rankings. They are based on nothing. To have Champlin Park ranked is a joke. They have 11 players after last night and they are 0-6 or 7. That being said, Blaine at #4 are 0-5-1, Buffalo is not a good team (nothing personal). Until the tournaments kick in and the league starts, these rankings are feeble. I really would like to know what they are drinking when LPH put this list together. (This comment is for all age groups, not just bantam)

Somebody make up their mind...

Did they lose 5-3, or 6-3?

[gusto]

i played in it, 5-3

hopkins bantam A goalie is a girl

I don't get why Edina is still ranked number 1, even after losing to Centenial and some other teams. Also, why wasn't Centenial ranked number 1 since the beginning? This group has won the past two state championships, and brings back their big stud in Lovik. I know these rankings don't matter until the real season get's into full swing, and even then they are just a bunch of old guy's opinions, but if you are going to do rankings, put down the Budweiser and do them right.

Agreed.

LPH doesnt know how to rank at any level of play.

[SLP/SW Coach]

If you all only REALLY knew on how LPH worked out and get to their Rankings - you would probably be very surprised.

[ice00breaker]

I dont care how they got their rankings, I care at what the result was

It goes a little something like NCAA Football (Not the BCS Ranking way either)

How do they do it?

[gopherhockey33]

if blaine really is 0-5-1, they shouldnt even be ranked. That is a horrible record for any team let alone a team in the top 5

[hockey35]

Blaine is 0-5-1?

Who all have they lost to?

Who did they tie?

[hockeyman6]

LAkeville South 5
moorhead 3


Lakeville South 5
fargo 2


Lakeville South 8

[hockey35]

Hockeyman6, you missed

Moorhead 8

[benchwarmer99]

bye bye jefferson they wont be up there anymore i hear a couple loses to maple grove and to chaska but i could be wrong did anyone hear anything else?

[southernfool]

Is anyone else surprised to see Brooklyn Park move up to #10 this week? Are they that good this year at Bantam A level. I don't remember them having that strong a club at the BB1 or PWA level last year. Any thoughts?

[ice00breaker]

Okay, LPH is officially retarded. Roseau #2 in state after a record of 2-2 so far. Losing to St. Cloud 6-1? Tonka 4-3. Wow. Thats all i can say

These are hilarious: how is Woodbury and Stillwater not in the top twenty? How is Duluth East number 15, didn't they just beat Centennial, White Bear and Eden Prarie? How is Roseau number 2? How is Moorhead so high? I don't know who does these but they are not even close to right. Mounds View? I guess Mounds View is so good they had to put them in twice. This is funny.

[Pucknutz69]

You might have an argument for Woodbury, But Stillwater? they got beat up pretty good in the Centennial tourney. Didn't Blaine take a few beatings also? Who had Tartan played? I think Orono is getting some credit from last year. Give it another week or 2 and things will shake out.

Now that we got the HS tryouts out of the way we will get some true sights on who should be ranked and who is going to be watching in February.

[scwho?]

Edit - you are one step ahead of me - THANKS!!!

I think Hermantown Bantam A team should be up there.

After all they are 4 - 0 with that said beating....

Burnsville
Rosemount
Duluth Lakers
Hibbing

During this only allowing 1 goal in.
