[Melvin44]

All of these girls are great great players and deserving. Let's just say I have to favor the girl in our conference the strongest conference/section. No weakness plays both ways and true leader. My daughter's a D so I wouldn't mind any of the D winning. Of course I know there's only 1.

Please know all are very deserving and really wouldn't mind any of them winning. All are amazing.

Best of luck to all.

Agreed, anyone else surprised that there is only 1 D in the top 10? There are some very good D that didn't make it, and I would say if I was picking I would have maybe 4 or 5 in my top 10......is it time for a defensive player of the year? Just seems it's hard to get good Defensive players recognized, but I guess if you play that position you are used to it.

[Melvin44]

Defense is the toughest position to get recognized. When you pitch a shutout it's the goalie. When you score it's usually a forward.

If they score they say the d sucked and don't look at the 3 forwards also on the ice. Rarely are D given a 2nd assists. If you skate the puck up your an offensive hog. People sometimes don't realize that maybe the d forced most of the shots from the outside or blocked 4 key shots during a game. They don't think of how the d got the puck made a quick outlet pass which started the game winning goal.

I know life sucks sometimes. Suck it up!

I know some of you probably are saying he thinks his daughter should have been nominated. Honestly I think she's an awesome player and girl. But she's not the type of player who wins this type of award and would rather have a friend or teamate win.

She was very happy and excited for all her friends who were nominated. I asked her who she thought should win and said all of them.

Again good luck to ALL of these special players.

I will say I thought a lot of D having great years could have been nominated. Maggie, Elle, Christina, Laurel, Katie, Dani, Allie, Chelsea, Stephanie, Megan.

I have always thought there should be a separate award given to the top forward, the top defensive player, and the top goalie. While they all play as a team to win, they have very different roles. It is hard to compare a strong defensive-minded D to a forward who makes plays and scores goals. (I have always thought the best defensive players are those that stop the other team from scoring.) There is a separate award for the top goalie ... I think it is time to recognize the top defensive players for what they contribute to a team.

As Melvin pointed out, there are some very deserving senior D who did not get recognized for this award, including his daughter.

[Bensonmum]

The only problem with having an award for top defensive player is that usually it goes to the defenseman with the best offensive performance. I've never seen an award for the best defensive stay-at-home defenseman. Like the Defensive Player of the Week award in the WCHA either goes to a goalie or else a defenseman who get 4 points in a weekend.

My favorite D in the last 5 years was Kelly Wild. She'd get walked around more than her share, but she was the most exciting offensive player in the section her senior year. Does she win a defenseman of the year award?

I think there should be a separate award for the best D because its too hard to compete with Forwards since they typically have gaudy stats compared to the D. However, I think you have to look at the offensive stats for D and compare them against other D (instead of Fs). Not that it should be the only measure of a D but the most dangerous D are ones that can get points too (Gs and As). I think the top D wouldn't necessarily lead the MSHSL in points for D but they would have to get some points.

[Melvin44]

I agree with Benny. The best defender award would go to the D who had 30 goals and 7 assists. No offense to anyone but I like a d to have more assists than goals. You would think they would be smart enought and figure there is more than just pts. Same goes for all conf, state.

Please let me say again that ALL the girls who are mentioned for this award are ALL deserving and special players. I honestly would be happy for any winner.

All teams play very strong teams and conference should never matter. I'm just a homer for our conference.

Good luck to ALL the girls. Honest!

I agree that a defenseman should be able to play both ways and should contribute offensively. Judging the defense objectively is a very difficult thing to do. You may also have a player that plays both forward and defense, which also muddies the water.

Maybe using plus/minus stats as a percentage of total goals for/against would be a good indicator. I hope I said that right. My intention is to say that plus/minus alone doesn't do much because there might be a defenseman who plays on a team that dominates its weaker opponents in conference play and really racks up the points -- naturally, those plus/minus #s would be higher than a defenseman who plays in a tougher conference where not as many goals are scored. Maybe I'm just getting deeper in my own poo here ...

At any rate, it would be nice to see a separate defensive award given out. I'm sure there are people way smarter than I am that could come up with some objective ways to evaluate defensemen against defensemen.

[quickfeet]

I first of all want to congratulate the top ten Ms. Hockey and the top ten Ms. Goalie candidates. What an honor and all very deserving of this wonderful award.

Next I want to pay tribute to the defense. Out of the 22 high school girls that have committed to play for D1 schools there are 10 forwards, 10 defense and 2 goalies. I believe this is the highest percentage of defenders committing to play D1 hockey ever. This years defenders are as different as they come. I have seen every one of these girls play and boy can they play the game. I have my favorites but they all bring something different to the game. I feel that they have been shorted when it comes to these awards and it is high time we have a Ms. Defense. I made up a list of the ten defenders that are going on to play D1 college hockey with their stats. When it comes to defenders you really need to go to a few games and watch them play. I hope you have enjoyed this class of defenders as much as I have. I don’t think we will see another class of this caliber or size in a long time. They are pretty special young ladies.

I like your comments about defense. But it looks a little like your order is based on pts. Pts are a little skewed. My point is look at the top 3 players all are sometimes the only option on there team and therefore they have the choice to do whatever they want. Which is fine but not exactly defense. Another point is who are they scoring against? top teams? little sisters of the poor? which again is fine. Also when were they signed? which I think Gleason Monkman and Pendleton were the earliest. obviously if they signed early the reason was probabley college coaches were more interested. I've seen many of these girls play and would agree that when the signed is close to the order of their talent. an opinion. I will say most are very close in overall talent. You seem like a proud parent of one of the girls who has a lot of pts. the point i'm making is there are many things to consider other than pts. but nice of you to mention the defense.

[Melvin44]

Every opinion is different unless you actually see these players it's hard to judge this award. My opinion would be to put a unbiased panel together and actually go out and watch these players and then make a decision.

If you can't actually watch a player you can't judge them. It's as simple as that.

I'm pretty sure they look at more than just stats. At least I hope so.

I agree with you Melvin. I did not intend to offend anybody, I only wanted to give a little credit to the defenders. I picked the ten that had committed to a D1 college.

I know. I always love your posts. You seem to know the game very well. Somtimes parents try to defend based on location. North, South, East, or West all passionate.

I do like some D not mentioned and feel they will be playing D1 hockey if they want. I know it's hard to say everyone.

There will be more signings.
