you never know what will happen when 16,17 & 18 year-old young men step on the ice. Hopefully it is a good game and everyone skates off without getting hurt.

Debating how the seeding will end up is fun, but as I stated earlier, seeding really doesn't matter in the end. The team playing the best hockey will win the section tourney regardless of where they have to play, particularly after the quaterfinals. To be the best, you must beat the best.

Nope, no way. Even if ER or DE lost most of their last games it wouldn't happen. I said "in the discussion", NOT they SHOULD BE 2 or 1. For Christ's sake. East and Elk River haven't been that impressive at times either. East just lost to Cloquet and got steam-rolled by Blaine and Hill Mur...

And the free fall continues for Rapids. Congrats to Moorhead. Like I stated earlier...At the end of the day the team playing the best hockey makes it out of their section, regardless of where they are seeded. To be the best, you have to beat the best, whether its in the first second, third or final...

Alex Erickson found a great time to score his first goal of the year with 42 seconds left. Good win for Moorhead.

Re: Rapids and 7A

Correct me if I'm wrong but wouldn't Rapids be in the 4-5 seed in 7A with Hermantown being 1, Virginia and Marshall both beat Rapids in there last meetings putting them at 4 and they have to play Denfeld yet. I know there are other games during the year but I'm just using head to head. 7A is very s...

Seems to me that DJ is really grasping at straws pretty much every post he makes to try and somehow help GR get a better seed or prove that they are a top team. Flat out, they just aren't that special this year. They may be able to upset a top team, but they're miles off of what they were last year...

I wouldn't say anyone counted out DE. They are 17-2-1 against GR in the last 20 and have always put a very well coached squad out on the ice. I agree with all of your other comments. The playoffs are a long way off and anything can happen there once the puck drops.

I'm not surprised. I saw a very disciplined DE team and an undisciplined GR team. There is no question regarding the separation of the two teams at this point in the season. Great crowd size.

I'm just hoping that everyone plays the best of their ability and comes off the ice healthy. GR has a tough game against Hermantown tomorrow as well. Interesting article on some of the rationale why Avery Peterson decided to stay for his senior year- http://mnhockeycoach.sportngin.com/news_article/s...

I'm still relatively new to all of this, so perhaps someone could educate me on a point. Is AA that much more important than A for player's future prospects? There was discussion of players leaving Range teams for Duluth. But, the nearest AA team to Hibbing and Greenway is Grand Rapids. Do players ...

Lots of truth in most of these comments. As a parent of a graduated GR hockey player and a grand parent of future Thunderhawks I'll add my 2 cents: -Hockey has turned into a multi season sport that prohibits the players from playing some of the other sports and parents don't like this. Of course Spr...

I just hope all these young men enjoy the experience of HS hockey and take the life lessons they learn on into adulthood.
