SEC 2015/16
Stillwater and then everyone else ?? WBL lost everyone ?? Eastridge recruit anyone
CDH [my pick] Forest Lake returns a goalie/a couple forwards.

Is the FL goalie the son of OldGoalie85? #YoungGoalieold goalie85 wrote:Stillwater and then everyone else ?? WBL lost everyone ?? Eastridge recruit anyoneCDH [my pick] Forest Lake returns a goalie/a couple forwards.

Up north here, Grand Rapids, Duluth East, and Hermantown routinely have 6+ players on the elite squad(s).hockeyfan74 wrote:I am guessing Stillwater may have the best High School team ever - I believe they had 6 players make the Elite League and another 8 make the Elite D League - 14 from Stillwater

If Stillwater HS does not finish top 5 in the state this year, all those in charge of the elite league and elite d league in the last a couple of months should be promoted to do something more important, right MNH?hockeyfan74 wrote:I am guessing Stillwater may have the best High School team ever - I believe they had 6 players make the Elite League and another 8 make the Elite D League - 14 from Stillwater

One would think Stillwater would be very competitive but where they finish in polls, seeding, or in playoffs can e based on many factors besides the number of players participating in any particular league.

Like all the tryouts for these kind of leagues, nine out of ten players that make it deserve it but, then dads connections, friends of dads etc. enter the selection process. And boom!Mnhockeys wrote:If Stillwater HS does not finish top 5 in the state this year, all those in charge of the elite league and elite d league in the last a couple of months should be promoted to do something more important, right MNH?hockeyfan74 wrote:I am guessing Stillwater may have the best High School team ever - I believe they had 6 players make the Elite League and another 8 make the Elite D League - 14 from Stillwater

I don't know but it's not just hockey, the talent is pretty dry in a lot of sports in White Bear nownorthwoods oldtimer wrote:You are incorrect.

Yeah that was odd to me, he is also listed as a sophomore ( that's one heck of a redshirtinthetwine wrote:I see Dylan Gast is on the WBL roster, is this because he might return later in the year?, or is he not injured?

Exactly what happened to Gast?Wblhcky2424 wrote:Yeah that was odd to me, he is also listed as a sophomore ( that's one heck of a redshirtinthetwine wrote:I see Dylan Gast is on the WBL roster, is this because he might return later in the year?, or is he not injured?) He is sill wearing a big brace and wasn't on the roster that was posted at the rink after tryouts but obviously he did not tryout. He said before he was out for the year so I highly doubt he will play but you never know.

Yep and there wasn't much scoring returning this year because the forwards were very senior heavy last year. There is only 2 forwards returning who played varsity last year that scored a goal during the regular season. (Brock Larson, 3 goals in 25 games, Connor Bjornberg, 1 goal in 2 games). Brett Meister played very well when he was called up toward the end of the year when Brady Anderson got hurt including 2 goals in the playoffs. They will need these players to make the next step when it comes to putting pucks in the net. New to the team this year is senior Alec Will who is a talented player who played JGA last year. There is also a couple junior and senior forwards who played most of the year (excluding a few games) on JV that will play varsity this season. By looking at the roster on the MSHSL website, it looks like they will have a lot of sophomore forwards on the team. Will be interesting to see how they develop throughout the seasonwbmd wrote:That's quite a big loss for White Bear.Wblhcky2424 wrote:Took a hit while playing in the elite league and tore his ACLwbmd wrote: Exactly what happened to Gast?
It will be interesting to see what the coaching staff can do with a team with little to no expectations. We all know how successful they were with a team with high expectations!Wblhcky2424 wrote:Yep and there wasn't much scoring returning this year because the forwards were very senior heavy last year.
