Still see Tonka still favored over the other top 4 by about 55/45 or 60/40 . But Chan is capable of an upset in sections . And either Wayzata or Edina capable of an upset over Tonka at State As far as any others threat to the top 4, BSM is capable of an upset in sections HM always capable of an upse...

Roseau , without Gavin Jensen , with a nice 6-3 win over MH .

Two very even teams.

Yup the two games between these squads , 1-1 tie and 5-4 OT win , were about as good as it gets in Minny HS hockey for many many years . And crowds in the range of 2000+- at each , Well done boys !

Some diff topics being discussed above Yes , use 3rd line / DPair during running time As far as movement between schools goes .... According to lists on Loren Nelson's Legacy.Hockey site , there were approx a dozen varsity transfers without sitting out for a year for the 2023-24 season vs a couple d...

Great work on the rankings ! We enjoyed seeing Karl at the Wayzata Edina game Tuesday! And then we finally met Sparlimb who was in town from SoCal at the Hill BSM game Saturday ! You saw Karl? The man, the myth, the legend? Wow. Did you touch the hem of his garment? Yes , he is real!! And yes we di...

Great work on the rankings !

Great job by Karl as usual, Class A guy, and Lee on the PageStat. Much appreciated by all of us! Brods makes a good point on 8-10 However back to the big picture. Good for the Trojans to stay with Tonka stride for stride . That makes two teams that have taken a little bloom off the Skips rose, as Ch...

Any info from our friends at Wayzata or WBL?

Yes , I have talked with Mike several times this fall and he is fine .

Anyone have anything to report ?

Looks / feels about right. except a little surprised the Bears are so low , entirely due to SOS?

Hearing Ryan Kerr will be in goal for Rapids Edina game . Carter Casey Friday night . Both were in HSEL. Either can steal a game

I mean if you just go by last year, Kam and the Storm beat Tonka once and took them to OT in section final . So he probably has at least an even chance of getting to the X in front of 19000 people with his buddies . If he does , he will have a decent chance of winning it . Hard to pass up that lifet...

Spread out , just saying there is no perfect answer As far as Section 2 goes , 3 diff teams went to the X in the last decade , and the dominant one is no longer dominant due in part to competitive forces . During that period , 3 other Section 2 teams just barely missed a trip to the X . A 7th has bi...

Dad or Mom gets transferred from LaCrescent to Twin Cities for work , when kid is a sophomore , you going to punish the kid by keeping him out of post season play?

Where you gonna draw the line? Say a kid moves in from Silicon Valley with different skills , you gonna keep him on jv chess club or keep him out of the state robotics trny for a year? Or just applies to a cross town Minny hockey kids ? Just saying , hard to administer Don't know why more transfers ...

I'll make the point about Tonka I've made earlier - gotta offset the incoming HS move ins with the outgoing association star kids that have gone elsewhere - Beckett Hendrickson , Drew Stewart , and Kam Hendrickson to name a few recent ones Brinks another outgoing one - left Tonka after soph year . H...

When will we see Karl publish his much anticipated rankings?
Tens of thousands are holding their breath!

Noah Urness will report in next Monday !

Breaking - already a change to the November 10 update !
Cooper Simpson will return to Shakopee!

Updated list as of Oct 18, obviously still some uncertainties Added first names and HS Apologize for errors or omissions Poul Anderson BSM - now hearing back at BSM? Ryder Betzold- Blades ,then back with Gentry Cole Bumgarner Lakers , then at Rogers Owen Buesgens Chan USHL Green Bay, assume B and A...

Good report Class A !

Could other people start dropping in final information when kids report back to their Minn HS, or decide to stay with their junior program for the winter

Way to keep on top of things from California ! All good questions ! I think broad consensus on top 6 , and kudus to Brodziak for predicting those way back last spring Karl can figure out the rest. Lots team in the mix 7-10 and 11-15 Incl many you mentioned plus CDH and STA I will say i think 7AA is ...

Heckufa effort ! Rivals ( or exceeds ) Karl's work on the AA side .

(Might Proctor be a little low ?)

Would also add :

Lund - Warroad , returning
Kaiser - Northfield , returning
Roff - TRF , returning (Brimsek finalist ? )

New Chaska HC is Ryan Siiro
