For your argument you picked East and Greenway. Why greenway and East of all teams. The reality would be SCC or Warroad. The matchup of one of those CE Mahtomedi would be just as awesome. SCC looking for a second c-chip. Warroad always brings a great crowd. And if Hermantown would move up SF Friday...

Since most volunteers who would keep SOG stats are parents I think it is relevant to point out how hard it can get to track the shots while also watching a kid play.

Looked up last four times Hermantown lost in section 7 playoffs 2019 2009 2008 2005. Last time Hermantown lost to class A team in season 2013. Be proud of Hermantown resume. It all points to Hermantown being a class AA school.top of the hill that long time to move! Here is my point again. Top of th...

I just have a hard time believing that not going to state means a program does out. Too many programs who haven't been there AND have little chance of going in near future are chugging along. With the expectation of playing a season, beating this rival or that team, winning a single playoff game. B...

Hermantown fans become confusing. They go off on these tangents and have nonsense statements to stop questions or when they get cornered. Also go for personal attacks. People get frustrated chasing these conversations or just get fed up that is why anti Hermantown people come and go. Just get sick ...

So you pick two weakest teams in tourney and place them on final? How the heck would they even got out of QF. I am telling you there is no way those two would have made final. So question is irrelevant? There were three other very good teams at the tourney besides the hawks!there is talent behind H...

And neither of those teams would have made the c-chip game. Either SCC or Warroad would have played a Mahtomedi. Would have been amazing! Yes! Class A hockey is very good and an even playing field would have brought real fans. Not just those who want to see the Herman(Ely,Virginia,Proctor, Virginia...

Mshsl did adjust their rules years ago in response to kids transferring every year, it worked. If this gets bad enough, something will happen.

Actually you asked in your post would it be as exciting if East or Greenway has been there. And I answered that question. East wouldn’t have made it. It would have been SCC or Warroad.yes that would have been amazing. Yep. That was my question. Not Warroad, not SCC, I asked about Greenway or East a...

Would it have drawn as much interest? As much drama? Would so many people have shown up?

They would have had to beat Warroad or SCC. Did you watch the tourney? How would East have ever made the c-chip game? That wasn't the question. Question was" would it have been as exciting???" Actually you asked in your post would it be as exciting if East or Greenway has been there. And ...

I remind: if I were a Hawks fan, I would love for them to go AA. I am not though. This year's state A tournement, which I do not "love" but enjoy very much never had so much excitement around it. How great was it when Maht won?? Would it have been better if Maht beat Greenway? Or possibly...

But, was that tournament as exciting if they were not there?? As much interest??

Let’s look together at their resume then. Let those numbers sink in! You are a fan of one team being on top of the class A hill 9 out of 11 years in c-chip game. Last losses for team. Come on tell me how they belong in class A. Come to a class AA tourney and dream what it might look like with Herma...

Is hockey dead in the northwest?? How many state tournaments has Roseau been to??? And Moorhead??
Why does anyone else compete?

Nope. Fan of class A hockey. Not Hermantown 's fan. The team I follow closest and care most about, Otters, haven't been good for a long time. Not a Hermantown fan. Not my resume. Not my circus. Actually was hoping Denfeld would have showed up in their championship game, guess they didn't. Let’s loo...

Actually Eveleth as an independent program will be no more in two years. They are coping with Virginia. Can you picture that the home to the hockey hall of fame will not have their own program in a couple years. As the good players leave to go to Hermantown and play at the X what does that do to a ...

I know many don't care, but would've been interesting to have Fergus Falls v Red Wing 2002 state A championship instead of RW v T-G. This was in the era that private schools were taking over, would have been a great game for two similar programs at the time.

I just want to see another Rams run. Or if Moorhead could break their spell.

"defense", actually, not going to state or, more specifically, knowing you literally have no realistic chance at going to state, has a significant long-term effect on the interest level in your program. Trust me, any time a program that hasn't ever been to state or, hasn't been there for ...

I would argue that the cost of playing and recruitment of youngsters in the community to try it are bigger problems than the hs team never went to state.

And that is why class A hockey is dead! They will continue to make C-chips for 10 out of 12, 11 out of 13, 12 out of 14, and 13 out of 15. Kids will continue to hop on this old ugly donkey(hawk) so they can go to the X. And no one will beat them and they will triumph stand on top of that class A hi...
