If Park doesn't win by at least 8 goals then they might be the most overrated team ever because LOW is just awful.

I would word it more like the goaltender took I Falls to overtime... 54 saves can do that... The ice was heavily tilted toward the LOW end for most of the game. The question is: Can it be done again, and will it be enough to win this time? My hunch is no, because they've lost a lot of other lopsided affairs with the same goalie.

FF...... I know you know this novel well. We've been reading it for the better part of two years now but I will analyze the word overrated.

In what poll is PR ranked high?

Overhyped....possibley, but that is the 'glue' of this bored.

Look on the bright side, there's another PR thread. :shock:

What makes an undefeated team overrated at #15? They did play EGF and beat them (whether there were players missing does not go into the fact they beat them). They are playing good hockey, winning games and whether they play an easy schedule or not there are teams who are just not as good as them.

Undefeated has to be ranked at this stage of the season...

PS2 rankings - which are historically very accurate in predicting section game winners has Section 8 teams

1 Warroad #4 single A
2 EGF #15
3 TRF #22
4 Bemidji #26
5 Park Rapids #29 (#82 overall)

I don't put much stock in rankings, but, as stated, historically they have been very accurated in predicting section game winners.

A worse than cupcake schedule.

Yes it does, especially when its all of your best players, goalie included.

Ranked? yes, i think PS2 has it about right.

Pretty sure it wasn't ALL OF EGF'S BEST PLAYERS...Also, don't blame PR for EGF players' stupidity they shoulda been in the game, not watching it...if these 2 play again it's gonna be a helluva game...knowing this, they should be pretty close to each other in the rankings..I personally don't feel PR is top 10, but top 15 isn't giving them more than what they deserve based on past history...


MOREANDMOREBSWITHEVERYPOST wrote:Ranked? yes, i think PS2 has it about right.
PS2 has it wrong. Roseau is the defending champs and should still be #1. Bemidji is ranked too high. I myself see several inaccuracies with it. Like Elliott says, it's a good guide most of the time. However, we might as well make this a bowl system and have 38 champions if you're gonna use this as a meter for rankings...Roseau hasn't lost and has a good chunk of their team back that won a State Title last year, to the best of my knowledge that ISN'T listed anywhere in these rankings...

Not overhyping, just giving credit where its due. Not sure where you would put them (I am sure its no where near where they deserve based on your trolling in other threads) but I am willing to give them top 15 status. I wouldnt put them in the top 10 but I sure wouldnt put them outside of the top 15 with their record and skill.

I have no problem with you bashing in Bagley, they are young and inexperienced as well as missing on cylinders. They will be young for next year as well but they have had some successes:
4 first career goals
Goaltending has improved over the year
2 full lines coming back next season that have improved vastly
gained 2 kids who had left the sport but wanted to return to it


I am not claiming Bagley will be good but improved, yes. Shows class to knock a team with 13 skaters with new coaching staff and only 3 seniors, 2 of which had little to no experience last season.

newsguy...not knocking THE PLAYERS AT ALL...just THE COACH who is on here giving excuses about losses and hyping the other bottom feeders. Like I said before maybe a little more coaching and less posting and you would already have your first head coaching win. :wink:

SHWAG...go pound sand. :wink:

Why am I reminded of the prize fighter who wins the belt without ever fighting the top contenders, and afterwards only fights tomato cans so he can keep it.

PS2 is right. This year is this year.

Roseau has beaten everybody on their schedule...take last year out of the equation it still makes no sense...

I think we've seen several times(BCS) that computers can only detour you from the real truth...
