Last year.
Preseason ranking.
And polls mean what?
But I will take your 'math' into consideration, once the season gets underway.

Bemidji PeeWee's really struggled last year. Did they have a powerhouse squirt team last year?

Yes, last year's team was mostly first year kids. They had good speed, no size or strength. Those kids are faster, bigger, stronger. Although size is still not a strength, they do hit.

We will see what happens with EFG, Roso, TRF, Warroad & Crookston.
And then when they get some D15 games.

Several last year squirt A kids have filled in also.

i ignore most of these post but i expect better from you elliot. you should know better lets look at my math. roseau beat duluth (last year) now duluth was almost all 2nd year players. roseau now has their top two forward lines back this year 4 of their top 5 point getters. So what your ranking says is that duluth's last years peewee b's and top squirts are gona beat the same team their peewee a's lost to last year. thats a reach if you ask me. im just trying to get this board intresting alittle spark if you will.

Yes, that is what I am saying.
At least initially.
East comes out of the shoot quicker.
They start earlier make a trip to or invite up quality twin city teams.
They are involved in more off-season events and skating.
They are up to speed quicker than D11, D16.

Yeah Elliot don't you know! I seem to remember the Junk yard dog barking alot early last year only to have his team fade at the end of the year with his tail between his legs. I believe he made a prediction of a state tournament team. From what he says they should be stacked but crazy things can happen.( it is pee-wee hockey). So Watchdog how do you see the season finishing this year? Just a little spark to get it going.

its real simple no one up north will touch roseau this year period. end of story... the only loses we could have will be in the cities. i beleive i did say we would make state last year but not do real well down their. however by shear fluke luck egf scrapes by on 5th game of the year to steal what was rightfully roseaus birth to state. it wont happen this year ill garuntee that right now. oh yeah and elliot we played duluth east in our first game last year.

What do you consider "touch" like 3-4 goals or beat or what! Wow I sure wish I was as confident as you. But be careful
if your mighty rams fall you might get hung up on your choker chain.

ive been wrong befor and im still here. judgeing by ur three posts u must play it safe. more than likely i know you and you know im right... you know the kids you know the math and you know the answer

I may know you! I'm not quite sure. But math was never my strong suit so I can't answer your math problem. I just remember your posts from last year and all you could do was talk about last years team and then the meltdown and you just play the "can't wait till next year card". But you never did answer my question? So do they go undefeated against all northern teams and blow out all those teams? Just want to get your unbiased opinion of things.

Roso's first game and last year.

New year.
New pre-season predictions.
Roseau #3. Last year I think I rated them #1 a few weeks.
They did not finish #1.

I think they are #3, right now.
If they drive to Duluth this weekend and play East & Cloquet, I think they would lose.
That's what ranking means, I think... 1 would beat everybody, 3 would beat most everybody....

Roso has a good team, if I did the whole state (which I won't (at least not yet)) they would be in the top 20, maybe top 10.

[elliott70]

When these kids were squirts, Roso, TRF, EGF, Crookston and Bemidji had decent teams.

But that was squirts, this is peewees.

Last year is over, this is a new year.



And for the next cople of weeks Roso is #3.
But I welcome one and all to post their thoughts.

im not so sure you can do my math lets put it on paper for ya. lets just do egf since you live their. tommy's gone gage is gone anyone that could do anything in egf in the one win in five games is goooooooooooone except poolman. thats the same for every team up north warroad,trf, gr,de ect... so if you could pull off one win last year with your top shelf players what b peewee or superstar squirt is gona win for ya against basically the same team. thats my math its not to hard its abc 123. to answer your questions yes we go unbeaten in the north unless a fluke happens ill leave room for one of those. blowouts 95% of the time. its almost gona get boring.

Wow i'm so glad that you can do math! But your only about 100 miles off on your prediction of where I'm from. I've seen you and your team in action many times last year and was just curious on what kind of team you were going to have. Now I know that your team is going all the way i don't need to go and watch them. See ya at state sister. If you get there.

[watchdog]

well if you seen me or should i say roseau play many times and live within a hundred miles of gf and your not from roseau than you have seen your team beat many times by this team over the years and probley badly. so who sounds stupid here me or you? i was simply calling elliot out on taking a d15 team over his d16 teams when at the very least could give roseau the benifit of the dought simply because he knows whats coming and by the way it sounds like you do too. itll be running time in bemidji while im eating a hot dog waiting for the last two periods to get over and elliot has them at 6.

So did Roseau's Bantam A's "steal" Bemidji's birth to State at Regions (after 4 losses in previous meetings) or was that different? Gotta win the big games to go to the show...

Before you go out and call people "who looks stupid" maybe you should do a bit of spell checking in you posts. Also why do you have to become so negative about other teams in the area? Grow up.

[GoldenBear]

I can do Watchdog's math. I've seen this group of kids play...up north as well as in the cities during the spring/summer. I think Watchdog is correct. Not too humble but I think he is correct. Roseau is a top five team in the state and will be in New Hope come March.

[watchdog]

hey now jig ur the one that jumped on here being all high and mighty. i was just having alittle fun and you came along making things even better. you could'nt just wait to come on here when roseau fades away into the night and i run with my tail tucked between my legs like last year with our 37-9 record and 9 first year players.. also d16 roseau did steal bemidjis right for state i think. anything can happen in one hockey game thats why they have a series in pro sports. i dont think anyone can argue 4 games to 1 unless your just plain stupid. bear u know me i just like to stir the pot alittle

[GoldenBear]

Dog, don't go changing. Would like to have a beer with you sometime and talk northern hockey.

And those D11 teams have had more than a couple of practices. they have played some metro teams and have looked good.
Roseau may be #1 in state come March, but it is not March. It's very early November and I think East & Cloquet would give Roso more than they would get if they played today.

Later in the month, in December, in January etc... I know that will change.
Polls change every week during the season.
