				I was thinking of saying Little Falls but can you?  Even if Ben leaves will they be that bad?  They still probably won't have a bad record.  Where are all the section 6A sucks and the clc sucks people?

				My Hill-Murray team will be hard pressed to defend their title.  I believe they will be very good next year, but not an elite team.  Probably still the favorite in section 4 unless White Bear has some kids coming in from Bantams that I don't know about.  Hill will likely be rotating goaltenders and have one very strong line (Zepeda, Kohls and possibly Widing as a top line) with some unproven kids making up the rest of the forwards.  They will be strong again defensively with 4 returning of the top 6 and Bruchu moving up from JV as a strong player.  Should be a fun year, but I'd guess they'll likely have somewhere around 5 or 6 losses come sections...

No question BSM loses a ton of senior talent, but what should help the cause is that their JV team was very good, losing just one game (by 3-4 to HM) all season.

We respect our elders here.  BIAFP has about 1600 more posts and four more years on this site.  Not cool.  We need a boblee ruling here.

				Don’t forget the State berth team of
Litchfield/Dassel-Cokato Dragons.
Lose 12 seniors to make a repeat.
They still will be able to tell there kids they made it to STATE. Cool

				sta will definantly be down as bad as anyone. they are losing their top 4 forwards (walters, isaacson, saintey, and rooney) along with the big 5 defensemen that got all the playing time this year. they will still be good but will have a extremely difficult time defending their title.

Ok. Once I get my post count up can I do anything, say anything, and act like a complete troll?

I also believe that Roseau will be alright.  They return a nice core of players--assuming everyone stays home--and they have some decent reinforcements coming from the JV and Bantams.  Replacing Ness, Nelson, Moser, and Fabian might be a bit difficult; but if the underclassmen improve their game and the young guns step up, they will come close.  The offense and goal-tending will be decent, the question is: how good will the defense be?  Defense is the key to winning the big games.
