What about Brainerd?

Post by greenway1969 »

Anyone know something about Brainerd? They've got a couple of nice wins and look like they could be a factor in 8AA.

They have 3 games before Christmas that will give an idea of what to expect; Alex, Bemidji and Moorhead.
Two or the top 4 in 8AA and Alex which is a strong A program.
Before I leave for Mexico I will give you my opinion.

But for now it is still a ? mark even with a nice win against Sartell (another good A program).

Brainerd actually beat Sartell 5-2 with an ENG in their only game this season.

Thanks.
MN scores had it backwards. I sent them an email to correct it.

Still early but
1. Bemidji has to be at the top based on last year and a good start
2 / 3 Brainerd and Moorhead
edge to Brainerd as winning breeds winning
4 / 5 St Mikes and Roseau based on their tie
edge to St Mikes as Roseau ahs 3 losses and SM/A 1 loss.
6 Rogers 2 wins
7 Buffalo 1 and 2

Jefferson is always a good win but giving up 9 goals????
and BJ ahs a nice win over Cloquet.

Brainerd keeps it up and the shady bunch will be out in force.

I always thought they had one inside that vehicle they took on the road.

Still not sold on the Wizard, we'll see how far down the yellow brick road he takes us in the next three games before we'll venture out of Shep's for a game [-(

Shep's will be more comfortable than any ice rink that the Worriers are playing Bemidji in. Unless you like to see young Brainerd men crying.
