4AA/A looks like they are going to be a solid team. Anybody got the roster for the 6AA/A team?

[flatontheice]

wow 1 example congratulations.

Gopher33:

This was cut from a message someone else left. I would get my fact straight first before making such a stupid comment.

•There are 191 Schools with registered hockey programs in Minnesota
•Within those schools, there are 4372 rostered varsity players.
•The total enrollment within these 191 schools in 2005 was 203,144 students.
•89 were AA programs and 102 were A programs.
•The rostered AA hockey player numbers were 2525 and for A level was 1847. This is from the MSHSL annual report.
•The 89 AA programs represented 107,806 of the students and the 102 A programs represented 95,338 of the student base.
•In 2005 there were 149 Division 1 Hockey players from Minnesota.
•Of the 159 Division 1 Hockey players 79 were from AA programs and 70 were from A programs.
•The Division 1 Hockey player to student ratio at AA Schools .00073 or .073%
•The Division 1 Hockey player to student ratio at A Schools is .00073 or .073%
•The Division 1 Hockey Player to rostered player ratio at AA Schools is .031 or 3.1%.
•The Division 1 Hockey Player to rostered player ratio at A Schools is .038 or 3.8%.
•This means that from the top level there is an 18% higher chance of playing Division 1 coming from an A level school.
•Of the 149 Division 1 players from Minnesota, 49 of them were from private schools or 33%. The enrollment weighting at these private schools was 9689 students. That means that only 4.8% of the student population represents 33% of the Division 1 players from Minnesota. Using a simple statistics calculation which I don’t want to bore you with the details, it breaks down to the fact you increase your chances of playing Division 1 hockey 18x by playing at a private school. What is more noticeable is that out of the 49 Division 1 players from Private Schools, 29 were from smaller (A ) schools. Benilde was included in the A calculation due to the numbers being from the 2004-2005 season.

•So using the same calculation, you increase your chances of playing Division 1 hockey by a factor of 30 if you play hockey at a small private school.

The probability of getting drafted in the NHL draft if you throw out the NDP and Shattuck is even higher if you attend a A level school (TJ Oshie, Matt Niskanen, Blake Wheeler, Peter Mueler). I would put all the numbers and stats on here that gave me the calculation but the odds are so skewed in favor of the smaller schools it is hard to understand. So for those of you that argue that you get discovered or get “more exposure” by playing AA hockey, the numbers are just not there to support it.

awesome stats...however, you're just looking at one year. I would imagine and i don't know this for a fact..but over the years the stats would be different. Bottom line is that if you are a good hockey player you will be found and exposure at the AA level is an element but obviously in 2005 it did not mean much...other than that AA teams have more depth and play better competition while A players get more time and the puck on their more to show their stuff...it all equals out in the end....

Fair enough. I think that some of the A players get a chance to play Varsity level hockey for a longer period of time due to the smaller numbers and that may have something to do with it too.

That 16 team is loaded

[Stealth]

Look at that 16 roster for 2A/3AA,

7 Kids from one team?

[MNHockeyFan1]

I heard that this tryout is all about politics, and that it doesn't mean much to be placed on the team.

Ya thats what it seems like to me also.

[RLStars]

Look at that 16 roster for 2A/3AA, Is the coach from “HILL MURRAY”?

7 Kids from one team? Watch for some other ones to come out like this.

Head coach is the Boys Varsity coach at Centennial
Assist. coach is the boys varsity coach at Moose Lake
GM is the varsity coach at Sauk Rapids

[Stealth]

Thanks Star

[bstarr15]

I Have heard a few that supposedly made the 3A/2AA but wondering if anyone knows the roster, no info yet to date.

[HOFamer]

anyone know section 8 rosters?

They where to get a phone call by 8:00 pm last night if they made the team. The players will not know who all made the team until they get together. Ask your coach, I bet he knows.

I asked...he doesn't know....

[SunDoggie1]

HOfamer, good luck in finding this list. I don't think it will get published.

Politicized? Maybe. Fund raiser for Minnesota Hockey? Definitely. I have it on good authority that there were more than a few "extra" skaters at the section 8 tryout. Invitation only? Just show up. They will be more than happy to take your money. No one was turned away!

I agree...52 skaters for the 16's was ridicules...think there were 6 from River lakes and 6 from Monticello....honestly a couple could not skate a lick...not as bad at 17 level...much more competitive

Some surprises for me beyond the usual cast of 17's....a kid from Park Rapids was highly skilled and a kid from Buffalo scored a number of goals and had speed and great hands.

All lists will be published eventually - they give out programs at the Plymouth Festival. Not that hard to guess who made the team. Look at the top players in the top programs.

Of course he does . . . he approves them.

HUH? Sounds like you are saying the Buffalo HS coach approves the kids who made the team? I find that highly doubtful since he was only at Saturdays tryout and didn't even attend Sunday??? Puckguy19 what exactly are you saying??? I swear you sound like a lawyer sometimes???
