Warroad is definitely favored on paper and has probably played the tougher all around schedule, but Hutchinson finished 4th in the Missota, has experience against good opponents, and will be skating as hard as they can. Can the Tigers play the game of their life and upset the Warriors?

Warroad gets the lucky draw for the 2nd year in a row. The only upset will be if it does not go into running time.

It is lucky in that it puts them on the winner's bracket (probably) but it won't prepare them for their next opponent very well. Last year they were only able to beat Litchfield 4-0. Anything is possible.

Warroad's got the only bye game. But it seems to be harder to kill teams at state. So, although Warroad will dominate, I take
Warroad: 5
Hutch: 1

Kevin Garnett did say, "ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!"
It's funny. As I was walking out of the Gardens, a guy said that Warroad was going to be one and done at state. I told him not to worry because they would get Hutchinson in the first round.
Hutch - 1
Warroad - 6

this is why teams should be seeded 1-8, not just top 4...hutch is so weak, yet the number 1 & 2 seed don't get to play them first round, for what its worth i think SCC and Warroad are pretty even so it's a horse a piece who is seeded higher, just wish all teams where seeded

Nice...
Is their running time at state? How about a ten run rule? Warroad may have more goals than Hutch has shots. Hutch is 2 and back to the farm!

Warroad should roll in this one. I think 7-1 over the Tigers.

ON paper, Warroad should win.
But if they go on with the attitude that they got a first-round bye, they will be in trouble.
Hutchinson has not played a lot of top-flight teams this year. Six of their seven losses were in the Missota. They split with New Prague Thanks to a great goaltending performance in the first game, lost twice to Red Wing, including a 2-0 game on Feb. 19, and lost twice to Holy Angels - Those are the only three teams to have beaten them by five goals or more.
A hot goalie can take a team a long way in the tournament.

Warroad 8-0. Great job by Hutchinson to get to state but you will have to be satisfied with getting this far.

Cowger, Bengston, and Swenson will show up and will surprise Warroad.
They can play.
And they'll need to.
I'm doubting this will be the blow-out people are predicting.
Or should I say, I'm
hoping it's not.
Warroad 5 Hutch 4

Now that I have been called a "fv--er" Warroad 10 Hutchinson 0 Hutchinson with its minnhock ranking of 67 beat the powerhouse New Ulm ranked 75, if section 3A was balanced like the rest, they would rarely make it to state, Just like the Lakeville teams block weaker southern teams in 1AA often, Put a team like Orono ranked 47 back in 3A and then listen to the Hutch fans cry because they cant make it to state anymore!

Warroad played awful last year against Litchfield. Considering they routed both of the lesser teams they played in sections this year, I doubt that they will overlook Hutch. This one is gonna be ugly.
Warroad 8
Hutchinson 0
