As expected, not even any controversy this year. It will be interesting. Will it be vanilla and fall in line according to seeding or will there be a major upset or two. Time will tell. Fun time of year!!

Pretty much what was expected. About as cut and dry of a year as you could have due to so many season series sweeps among teams that were close. The only vote that really made me wonder was Rogers voting St Cloud over Bemidji. Bemidji had 3 section wins and a tie. Included in those wins was a win over St Cloud in the head to head. St Cloud had one section win and one section tie. The kicker is that Bemidji has the higher Pagestat rating so you can't even really say that St Cloud has the better team despite the section record and head to head. I debated posting about it because it doesn't end up affecting seeding but I would like to know the reasoning behind Roger's vote.

Apparently their coach knows as much about voting hockey as he does about coaching hockey.

Ouch, that wasn't nice.

How the hell did Buffalo get a higher seed than Bemidji?. Bemidji beat them.

Exactly! Except Buffalo deserved it. If Bemidji would have won a game or two down the stretch they could have argued about it.

STMA also thumped Roseau, but would you argue they deserve the two seed? You have to at least be in the same vicinity with regard to overall performance for head-to-head to come into play.
