I'd hope so.GopherHockey wrote:3-3 Final in OT.
That has to give Tonka the nod for the #1 seed in 6AA does it not?
I'd say they brought their "C" game.shakey wrote:Did Tonka "bring their A game"?
Only saw the first period, which was pretty even and then the myfoxhockey feed went down. Tonka outshot Wayzata 20-6 in the 3rd and 44-32 for the game. Should be a great section tournament and hopefully they meet again in the finals.If Wayzata beats Hopkins on Saturday, Wayzata wins the Classic Lake and Tonka finishes 2nd. Does that give Tonka the #1 section seed? It shouldn't.karl(east) wrote:I'd hope so.GopherHockey wrote:3-3 Final in OT.

This is going to be a ridiculous section tournament.
Don't confuse conference play with section seeding. Tonka is still the #1 team in the state. No one has proved otherwise including Wayzata... which let's not forget has two losses... They will get the #1 seed but regardless their is no easy way out of 6AA....K Dope wrote:If Wayzata beats Hopkins on Saturday, Wayzata wins the Classic Lake and Tonka finishes 2nd.

Seems kind of silly that the Classic Lake Champs would get seeded behind the Classic Lake Runner up. You're probably right that Tonka gets the #1 seed, but this opens up a lot of discussion.Factsmatter1 wrote:Don't confuse conference play with section seeding.

Not going to argue...but this leaves a bad taste. Against the #3 team in the State (Edina) according to this message board, Wayzata is 3-0 and Tonka is 1-1. I believe you about the quality wins against Top 20 teams, but I'd like to see it on paper.knowitall wrote:Overall records and head to head are more important than conference standings. Tonka will end up with a 22-1-2 record and Wayzata will end up 20-2-3. Tonka also has more quality wins (wins against top 20 teams). They will get the #1 seed
Hmmm. Thanks for that. I still think Wayzata should get the nod but this will be an awesome section tourney. Wayzata should raise the Classic Lake banner before a Tonka game next season...knowitall wrote:Tonka's Wins (quality)

Neither team has a bad loss but Wayzata has one more loss and one more tie.
I started this conversation by saying "If Wayzata beats Hopkins on Saturday,"...nobody jumped to conclusions. Thanks for the insight last night Knowitall.Snap Shot wrote:Let's make sure Wayzata closes the deal before we jump to conclusions about the Calssic Lake title.
They both beat Edina twice and nobody assigns a section spot based upon one common opponent.FREDFLINTSTONE wrote:I would give the nod to Wayzata. Tonka lost to Edina, and Wayzata beat them 3 times
I would say records against common opponents should be looked at very closely.Slap Shot wrote:They both beat Edina twice and nobody assigns a section spot based upon one common opponent.FREDFLINTSTONE wrote:I would give the nod to Wayzata. Tonka lost to Edina, and Wayzata beat them 3 times
Very good point there mule. What is Wayzata doing losing to Jefferson?mulefarm wrote:Extremely tough , not a clear cut #1. Tonka could finish 2nd in conf and get #1. Wayzata lost to Jefferson and EP beat Jefferson twice. Tonka beat EP. Probably the lose to Benilde would hurt Wayzata the most and a tie with Osseo doesn't help. EP wins Lake, Wayzata wins Classic, and one of them could be a 3 seed. I think it will be:Tonka, EP,Wayzata, BSM.
