Re: An all-time all-tournament team
Excellent list. I would add Henry Boucha. Only one tournament, but iconic. Plus, you need another defenseman (which he played in high school)

Re: An all-time all-tournament team
Maybe its just me but #73 seems kinda low for Ben Hanowski. 27 state tournament points in his career is a pretty good showing although I guess I understand bumping him down for never actually winning the title.MNHockeyFan wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2019 2:49 pm Initial list includes #75 down to #51.

Re: An all-time all-tournament team
Also Grant Besse deserves consideration...scored all 5 goals in Benilde's 5-1 championship game win over Hill-Murray, of which 3 were shorthanded. I believe his 5 goals set a record for goals scored in a championship game that still stands today.Doc Holliday wrote: ↑Mon Mar 04, 2019 3:43 pm I would bet almost anything that Mike Crowley will be among the top-10.

Re: An all-time all-tournament team
Besse performance was unbelievable. Considering today’s game, hard to imagine we would see a performance like that ever again.

Re: An all-time all-tournament team
Scott Bloom from Burnsville should be on that list
Just ask any Hill-Murray fan and they will agree

Re: An all-time all-tournament team
I was going to say the same thing yesterday. Two state titles and an impact player every shift.
Be kind. Rewind.
Re: An all-time all-tournament team
While I realize neither won a State Title...any top 75 listing that ranks Neal Broten at #32 and totally omits Casey Mittelstadt...has ZERO credibility
