Brock Nelson was on my first list of ten. But somehow I did not type his name in, that is when I added Graves to give me ten.

Graves isn't even the #1 goalie in Bemidji. How can he be considered one of the best in the state?

cesar_maniago · Post by **cesar_maniago** » Fri Jan 23, 2009 12:40 pm

I'm sorry, I meant one of the best in the North? He hasn't proven anything this year. A lot of people are drooling over his youth hockey days, but in high school a goalie needs a little size. Dudgeon is a far superior goalie at this point. Graves needs to refine his game at the JV level, and get used to the speed of high school hockey. 5"6" leaves a lot of net exposed, especially when he goes down. I've seen him get beat over his blocker side shoulder a lot this year. He'll need to fix that part of his game to be taken seriously.

Hermantown and Duluth Marshall don't even deserve to be considered "north"

Mcmorrow is really good he has good size, strength, shot, and awareness so i wouldnt be saying that he is a bad player. Yes Lane is probably better than him but still mcmorrow is a good solid player

You must have a different definition of "north" than the rest of us

I would say "North" is from Moorhead to Duluth and up.

A couple of other names that comes to mind that don't get much attention due to the teams they play on are Erik Moe of Eveleth and Casey Eckman of Two Harbors.

You must be mistaken. I watched Grand Rapids a few times this year and I didn't see a single player that would be considered "good" from their team.

A natural hat trick at that - Good job Mickey, but keep working.

And GR3343, Totally meant Luoma, Not Reed, but at least he was a stud.
