Pretty good list of players. I am a little surprised that there aren't more Seniors from the State Champion Breck team. Overall though it is a decent list.

[mn man]

Good stuff.
I would put senior defenseman Chase Loken from Eden Prairie into this discussion also

Agreed on both comments. Loken is a good player and there are several Breck players who could easily move up onto the list. As it is, the list has more than 100 so you can see where it is tough to narrow it down.

I also like the fact that they go out of their way to find solid players outstate rather than focusing only on the metro area. Many of those players go unnoticed because they play in smaller towns and it is nice to see someone try to recognize these players too.

Perron From Cretin and Faust from Hill-Murray. Perron is all over the ice and makes great passes. Faust has great speed and is a great scorer.
