Section 8AA

Post by TheHockeyDJ »

So, who is everyone's pick to represent Northwestern MN @ the X? I'm hoping for Bemidji, but if I remember accurately, Roseau is supposed to be improved over last season and be a legit contender to do damage in St. Paul. What about Brainerd and St. Cloud Tech?

Don't forget about Moorhead. Great goalies can carry a team.

St Cloud Tech lost basically their whole team due to graduation last year. Lost their starting goalie, most of their defense and basically all of their offense, they return less than 5 regular varsity players this year I believe. Im not sure what they have in terms of incoming players but they should be weaker than last year. Moorhead, Roseau and Bemidji should be the favorites.

Tech could very well be "New & Improved" if they lost most of last year's team, which didn't do much of anything !

If roseau is supposed to be so good why did their star player leave to play juniors?

Maybe a "family advisor" told him it was the fastest path to the NHL?

He will be replaced. In Roseau, there are more than enough players that will proudly wear the Rams Jersey!

They could but I highly doubt it, but then again, weirder things have happened in high school hockey I guess.

I am going to be surprised if Roseau does not win the 8AA championship this year. And I will be surprised if they aren't a factor in St Paul in March.
In my opinion Bemidji will be the first team chasing the goats and next will be Moorhead. Brainerd could jump past Moorhead but I don't think they'll be better than the tree hackers. Tech, will be the best of the rest.
