I did not like the old system, but not fond of the coaches doing the seeding either.
Whats this "old system" you are referring to?

Re: Should head-to-head results be only factor in section seeding?

The body of work in section play is what should be used to determine section seedings. If 2 teams seem to be in a tie with section games, then look at their body of work and common opponents. When it comes to the state tournament, I am old school and wish they would go back to the tournament basica...

Re: Coldest Rinks in MN

Minnehaha is the coldest rink in the metro area. Man, did parents bitch when we had games scheduled there! As a player I loved it once you warmed up. Fryberger has always gotten all of the press in the Twin Ports, but the old Proctor Arena was almost as cold. Anything built with sheet metal in the ...

Currently there are 145 boys hockey teams in MN. 4 or 5 classes seems like a bit much. Maybe 3 would work? That would mean about 48 teams per class, which means 6 team sections.

Does anyone know if Dodge County in Class A or AA this season? The MSHSL website lists them as Class A while Minnesota Scores has them still in Class AA, where they played last season.

I don't hate this idea overall of getting a third level (Don't think we would ever need anything more than that). I just think you'd have to have it split up before the season or in some way that wasn't based on the current seasons results. In your example Blaine would go from the favorite in the s...

The reason?
