At risk of getting blasted here: is Denfeld really a state tournement caliber team this year? Was any of the teams that Hermantown has faced in the playoffs section championship material?? Honestly? All depends on what you mean "State Tournament" Caliber... I would think that Denfeld woul...

I would say that Pine City actually has better top end skill than Monticello, but like many of you have touched on the depth will play a huge roll at Fogerty tomorrow night. Junior forward Parker Sell has been absolutely on fire this postseason, and even if you are able to contain him you will proba...

Official seeding is out...

1. Monticello
2. North Branch
3. Pine City
4. St. Francis
5. Princeton
6. Northern Lakes
7. Chisago Lakes
8. Sauk Rapids
9. Mora
10. Cambridge
11. Becker/Big Lake
12. Moose Lake

Self harm continues... North Branch had 160 penalty minutes ALL of last year and are currently at 268(!!!) this season with a game to play. It makes it all the worse when your best players are the ones off the ice most of the time. This group dominates when they just play their game with clean - in...

I did some heavy analysis by goal differential and figured I could post my findings here for everyone to enjoy. I took the average goal differential between each team in the section when they played another team. I then did an individual ranking for each team, totalled the rankings, removed the 1 hi...

Here is how I think seedings will shake out right now, with remaining games for each squad. I have also added teams they have lost to on the year to help illustrate why I ranked them as such with total Losses in parenthesis 1. Monticello- @Princeton, @Buffalo None so far 2. Pine City- @Duluth Denfel...

Just like that my rankings yesterday go up in flames :lol: Here is my revision FWIW 1. Monti 2. North Branch 3. Pine City 4. Princeton 5. Chisago Lakes 6. Northern Lakes 7. St. Francis 8. Mora 9. Sauk Rapids 10. Cambridge 11. Becker/Big Lake 12. Moose Lake With Chisago Lakes beating both Pine City a...

After a couple of weeks the picture has gotten a little clearer, but there are still some fairly important matchups that need to take place before we can really define where people belong, but here is where I place teams as of right now. 1. Monticello- Undefeated in section play so no further explan...

Just a quick look at the box scores for the Pine City vs Princeton game makes it look like they were pretty much the same rosters. Pine City put up about the same number of shots in both games, but looks like they couldn't capitalize like they did at TRIA. I think it was a case of momentum for both ...

Princeton with a surprise 7-3 win over Pine City North Branch make a showing again 6-3 over Gentry Academy Any additional info on Damon Furuseth's abuse of official penalty early in the first period? Just looked at the box score and noticed it. Hard to lose a top forward for essentially the whole p...

Princeton definitely deserved to win that game, but I think it refocuses the Dragons and will have them better prepared moving forward. The high scoring affairs isn't what has made them successful this season, and I believe it will help them realize where their strengths lie. My rankings as of now 1...

Here is how I see the seeds currently 1. Chisago Lakes- Yes they did just lose to Monticello, but that is their first and only section opponent loss all year. 2. Monticello- If I were a betting man, I would put my money on Monticello winning this section, but they do have 2 section losses to Chisago...

Cathedral's D proves to be to much

SCC 3
Htown 1

Despite Moose Lake Having their best season in recent years, I still see Sauk ending up with the W.

Sauk 6
Moose Lake 2

Any news on this one?

Congratulations to Mora on a solid season but I don't think they will be ready to actually play section paced hockey with a tough Hermantown team.

Hermantown 6
Mora 1

I'll take roseau in this one.

Roseau 5
GR 2

Okay just making sure. I might have had to skip my classes if they were on thursday.

It's going to be a helluva double header in Cloquet next Thursday, I look forward to being there.

Aren't the semis a week from saturday? If they are on thursday i wouldn't be able to make it

I almost had them right but i can see why Cathedral is the top seed and like many people including myself have said, i can see any of the top four teams making it to the X. one thing that jumps out at me is Pine City at the 6 spot. The coaches must have done a really good job at selling their team a...

Sauk Rapids win puts them in a great position for section seedings. With their win i think they will get at least the 2nd seed. I think that the seedings come down to the Hermantown and Cathedral game on tuesday. If Cathedral wins: 1. Sauk Rapids 2. Cathedral 3. Denfeld 4. Hermantown and then the re...

With sections only a couple weeks away what are everyones thoughts on section rankings. Obviously there are several games that still need to be played but here are my rankings. 1. Cathedral- seem to be the best all around, still have to play sauk and H-town. They have already defeated Denfeld 2. Her...
