No.
And it isn't a comparison that makes much sense either. It'd be like comparing Honeybaked to the kids that began their mini mite program at the rink that hosts Little Caesars.
Shattuck isn't a traditional Minnesota high school, so they don't play like one.

Shattuck has huge advantages over other AAA and Minnesota Association teams: the ability to recruit top players (I should rephrase: the ability to provide financial aid to top players), automatic invite to natys, 24/7 practice ice, and variety of other bennies.
How are they in a bad cycle? To lose across all age levels is like throwing 3 air balls in a row at the free throw line. How'd they do last year?

Good comparison
Getting to the semi-finals at nationals isn't exactly an "air ball"

I agree tnat SSM have great players, but when they are beating teams 22 -0 , it is easy to rack up individual points. Having a stacked team , is no comparisson to association hockey.
