District 16: Roseau, Warroad, Thief River Falls, EGF, Crookston, Bemidji. Not everybody is outstanding right now, Roseau appears to be the class of the field, but every team will beat you up all year long.

And all the travel sucks, how bout the road trip from EGF to Baudette for a game!

The first list of D6 teams are all worthy of being top 10 in state.

And there is 5 of them.

Lets see. how many districts? and 1 district has half the good teams?

It's not really a competition, and sure other districts are tough, but you have no clue whos going to come out in 2nd, 3rd, 4th or 5th in district 6.

I would have to say...no matter what the poll turn out...that D6 and D2 are both pretty equal.

I agree! District 6 is very strong with Eden Prarie, Edina, Jefferson, Burnsville, and Minnetonka.

Another measuring tool. How are all the teams in each district ranked? The district with more ranked teams should be the dominant district.

What website has the best most accurate rankings for youth hockey?

What about the IR??????

The toughness in 16 is the fact that they are rough teams and hockey is KING up there.
How about 15???

Moorhead, Alexandria, Fergus Falls, Detroit Lakes, Brainerd, Little Falls etc. Not every team is strong every year, but wasn't that said about 16??? I believe that this district is pretty strong in regionals.....

Enden Prairie is good and so is Endina, it's just that the enducation is better in Endina than it is in Enden Prairie.

I would have to go with Dist. #6. Even though viewing the game scores from the Dist. 6 teams vs. there opponents Dist. 10 would have to follow. Elk River beating Edina twice, Coon Rapids with wins over Jefferson, Eden Prairie, Kennedy and twice to Apple Valley

Be serious, I'm from up "here" and this small district is in no way as competitive or tough as a district such as 6 or 16. The numbers just don't dictate a tough district. Only 3 of the 5 teams have shown themselves to be at all competitive in the last few years. I'm all for defending your turf, but at least be realistic about it.
