Section 6A prediction and talk

[bruce06]

I would definately say little falls has the advantage in this section and they have proven that they are the best team. However, Alexandria and fergus should not be put aside. Fergus has peck and at times he can take over a game. I have watched all the teams in this section and i think he is the best player, and if he shows up fergus could make a run. Also alexandria played little falls when they were in a little mid-season slump. It looks like they are back on track as of late. They are a pretty balanced team and that #27 for alex looks like he can play with the best of them as well. Also I was in alexandria at the bemidji game and I noticed that there 3rd line center is kind of a sleeper. He plays center on that line and when he is out against other 3rd lines he looks like the best player on the ice. also plays power play and penalty kill. I just think this alex team is one to watch out for. they only have 2 seniors on the team They have probably 11 sophmores and the rest juniors and one unbelievable goalie who if he gets hot i would like to see anyone better. Come section time anything is up for grabs and I wouldnt lock it up and give it to little falls quite yet. Same goes for apollo if the get a hot goalie. Kinda a 4 team race with little falls leading the race as of now.

Why do some people think Apollo is going to do well in the section tournament? The haven't won a section game yet this year

Again, those section rankings mean NOTHING until each team plays all section teams. Apollo does not play MBA, Prairie Centre, Wadena or Detroit Lakes. I highly doubt the Eagles end up lower then a fifth seed.

Do you really think Alexandria is a seventh seed and Prairie Centre is a three?

If you're going to use stats from "follow the puck", how about you add the fact that Apollo just beat the 18th ranked Class A school (Sauk Rapids) twice this season.

Wow, you usually make more sense then that

Lets see here, they got blown out by Little Falls, but then again, who hasn't. They lost to Alexandria (probably the second seeded team). Lost twice to Fergus Falls 4-5 both times. First loss with seconds remaining in the game and the second loss in OT. They got homered in Sartell but hopefully get some pay back next week. 5 losses to the top five teams.

RLStars;
This was placed to show the head to head games played in Section 6A. You are right that about Prairie center / Morris / DL.

It does look odd that follow the puck (FTP) has PC at 1-1-1 ahead of everyone with at least 2 wins and ties to boot?
I’ll ask him. Also will ask that I see only one win in 6A for DL in there schedule web page.

Doug at FTP does say he does this all by hand. But his web page sure does help summarize it all.

Good job on Sauk Rapids you do have there number. They are a tough one to figure. Just ask a Small Falls fan?

All will not matter in the end being how well Small Falls is playing, but it is fun.

[RLStars]

There is definately a top and bottom to this section, but the middle is a bit of a mess. Can't wait for the meetings to come out.

Ok brucey i strongly doubt that Peck is the best player is 6A its Ben Hanowski hands down. Little Falls will get the #1 seed and destroy these teams just like they did in the regular season.

I have to agree with darkdemon on this one No doubt Ben Hanowski is the best player in the section I would even say that Ben's brother Beau is better then Peck, also.

[bruce06]

I agree that little falls is the best team but watching both players play I notice that ben hanowski is completely a 1 way player and everytime he gets hit he takes a dive or complains to the ref or something which just takes him out of the play. No doubt he is a great player its just one opinion. other poeple have other opinions it really means nothing. I dont think little falls will stomp all over this section. they have the best chance of winning the section yes but i think some of the games will be close. and the section records to date mean nothing.

Check who's higher on the list of state scoring leaders then come back and try to defend your guy If I recall the Fergus LF game a lot cheap shots were be given by the Fergus against Ben Hanowski.

I gotta agree with bruce06 on this one. Little falls is a great team but i think that there is a chance that other teams can upset them. i dont think little falls will stomp over everyone. Also I dont think peck is better then hanowski but hanowski is not better then peck either. They are both great players. I have only seen alex play three times this year and one was against cathedral and the other was against bemidji and princeton in the rochestor tourny and I was really impressed. I think alex has alot of balance throughout there lineup. They have that #27 who is a great player and #4 who has one of the better shots ive seen in a while and the center #20 who can bury the puck, at least in the games i saw i was impressed. I think many people will be surprised with this section with fergus and peck, alex and there goalie and a balanced line up, apollo and there goalie and little falls with the hanowskies alll putting up some great games.

Hard to compare players when Hanowski has committed to SCSU and Peck is just on the radar.

[AngusYoung]

The Flyers are the cream of the crop in this section with the most balanced team they have ever had. It would be a major upset if they were not the rep from Section 6A @ the Xcel in March. No one else has showed that they can compete with them as of yet so it would appear it's their Section to lose.

AY

[Mite-dad]

The thing that has to worry teams about LF is that their scoring has become much more balanced. Check out their stats, they are getting some very good production out of their second line. Plus I think they are much better defensively than last year and Sperl is improved. Not saying LF can't lay an egg, but if the kids are motivated and Couture does his job, they should come out of the section easily.

Peck has 42 pts as of the first 16 games and hanowski has 48 pts as of 18 games so i would say they are fairly similar. Also 13 of hanowski's points came in two games when they won 12-0 and 11-0. so thats probably the only reason why he is leading peck and he also has more guys around him to get him the puck

Hanowski is a D1 player where is Peck just another name of a guy who is a good high school player. Ben is a year younger than Peck anyways you give him another year and he'll be even better than Peck ever was or ever will be. Also the blowouts you mention Fergus also blewout River Lakes Ben IS the best player in this section and I'd even go as far to say that Little Falls has a defenseman (Izaak Berglund) who is better than Peck

I wasn't talkin points. I was talkin Ben Hanowski has verbally committed to SCSU D-1, while Peck has 42 pts. Peck is a very good player, but still on the hockey radar looking

First learn how to quote, second where is Peck playing his hockey next year Ben committed to SCSU right after his sophomore year With the scoring issue he missed the first couple of games with mono plus the last three games with a groin injury if he didn't have those injuries you would be locking at the state's leading scorer. When LF is crushing their opponents like they usually do the first line doesn’t play much in the third period, maybe a shift of two. Hanowski is a true team leader he makes the guys around him better unlike Peck. So don't tell me Peck is on the same level as Ben Hanowski

[bruce06]

To tell you the truth it doesnt really matter its just a couple of opinions, all i was doing was showing those points because you said hanowski was alot higher on the scoring leader list which really proves nothing. Both are good players and I think both have good hockey futures. So you can just lock this arguement up. I was just stating my opion and you were stating yours sorry if i offended you and your boy.

How come no talk about Beau Hanowski? He has 58pts, so how come he isnt in this subject

Peck is a good high school player, but Hanowski is a great high school player when and if you watch them play against each other again on the 12th just watch how Ben plays with his teammates and how he’s always has somebody tailing him where ever he goes on the ice. Just ask people outside of Fergus who's the better player and everyone will agree that know anything about hockey and they'll tell Hanowski is.
