1. Winner Saturday (Buses or Gramatically Incorrect Deer)
2. Loser Staurday
3. Nonexistent Birds
4. Purple Lumberjacks
5. Phillips Andover
6. Martians
7. Franny
8. Flakes
9. Cambridge
Only way I see that changing is if the Jacks beat both Rapids and East, in which case they could slide up to #3.

Nicely put Karl East

Yes. It was senior night. The boys had fun tonight. Back to work Monday night when Duluth East comes to Cloquet. I'm expecting there will be a big crowd for this one. 2,000+.

Section seeding comes out weds night or thursday am, seeding looks to be all but set. Tomorrow's CEC/GR game could possibly change that.

The Injuns are going to need to dig deep to get past Marshall or Andover. Based on the last couple of games, I doubt they will do it. I hope I am wrong.

Yea that could be a tough one. Wonder if CEC beats them tomorrow and with the past few games do they slip to the 4 seed?

I would think there is a chance of that. They are definitely not the team they were in December.

How do you best explain their nosedive? I recall that Karl had them ranked as high as No. 3 in December...

Good question. I live too far away to have any inside info on them. Most of what I know either comes from here or the games I can watch. Lot of comments on here about lack of discipline. Again, I can't say with any type of certainty, but it sure does seem that way.

I would also think maybe they are relying too much on the top 3 and they over the season now are getting burnt out from all the ice they have been getting..

I think they have done a good job of spreading them out through the lineup. They have had a lot of different combinations during the year. They just seem to be in a stretch where they get down a goal or two and start in with the penalties. The big guns do have to spend a lot of time killing power plays. That is nobodies fault but their own. If they correct that I think they will be fine.

Rapids has been doing it with good goaltending and the play of the 3 forwards. After that, this is a average team at best. Now that there are issues with 2 of the 3, this team is extremely vulnerable to an early exit.
The blueline has struggled as well lately.

My wife says there is nothing more romantic than watching me slug down a couple mixers and swear at the computer.

It will be interesting to see how the Elks fare against the Maple Grove team that just crushed East.
