Warroad is the clear cut favorite in section 8 - I believe 2-5 will be Bemidji-EGF-Park Rapids and TRF , I listed these in alphabetical order. I would expect to see the same final as we have seen 4 out of the last 5 years. I think TRF has the most talent but the are very young - I think they play the toughest shedule in the section and they will improve the most. They have the best young goalie and he will win them some games - My wave could be good but will be very undisciplined as always. Bemidji has talent but they seem to self destruct in High School. Park Rapids has 1 or 2 great players and not alot else- two players can be nuetralized. Time will tell - Good luck to all.

stranger things have happened and they were there last year in the finals. 1-5/6 is going to be real tight. Wouldnt be suprised to see any of the others in the top 6 competing against Warroad for the section.

1-5/6 will not be tight. There is no question that Warroad is clearly the best team and a clear cut #1. I do agree 2-5/6 will be tight. Moose Jaw I don't believe greenwave said they were the most talented team in the section he/she said they had the most young talent of those in 2-6 set. I also remember that when these 3-4 bantams you talk about were 2nd year peewee's they lost to Grand Rapids in the Regional by 1 goal to go to state so they do have some talent. Time will tell but it is sure fun to talk about early. GO WARRIORS

I would hate to see the arrogance and cocky attitude come back to bite some one in the butt (not naming names/schools of course). It should be fun to watch this section section.

Its not cocky or arrogant...its the truth. The arrogance is shown in those that didn't pick Warroad to win the section! :twisted:

The talk on the board has been great but it's time to do some talking inside the board(s). Light the Torch and let the games begin in the "section that sits atop the state."

I am glad you are giving BF a win but dont count your chickens before they hatch... They do have some good players coming back but they are extremely young.

EGF VFW to Bemidji Nymore = 116.
From CC to Nymore must be a couple of mile less.

The trip home for EGF Elves = :oops: :cry: ; will seem like forever.

116mi. x 2 = 232mi.

My 200 mile estimation wasn't too bad.

EGF to Bemidji is a cakewalk nowadays thanks to the Crookston bypass and the 65mph speed limit.

Right on CNT.

For elliot to have it down to precisely 116 Mi. He must have drivin it many many many times.

So that vehicle probably dates it about right!!!

Oh, and by the way, the elves are gonna be doin nothin but celebrating all the way home.

I thinkin it will be such a party that it will seem like they are home in no time. They will be doin a lot of this.............:mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

NEWsguy35 obviously is trying to give us his spin on Section 8A but he's too far away and hasn't dealt with it long enough. Roseau WILL make this TRF game a laugher early. If TRF has 12 shots all night I'll be surprised that is if the Rams don't play their 3rd and 4th lines the whole third period. Moosejaw is right Tim is a great coach but it's early and they are really young with poor numbers and the Rams are already hitting on all 8 cylinders. Lee gets his first shutout of the year and the Rams put up double digits if they WANT to. This one will be over early in every sense of the word.

I agree UHL.
The only problem is that Roseau, for some reason. seems to struggle a little at the MiniRalph.

That being said, I still expect a rout.

We will see soon enough!!!

I don't know if there's a rout at the Ralph tonight but I can say the rout at the home port has gone final.

Admiral Bittner is back and once again triumphant in 8A waters.

Crookston 10, RLF 2
