Re: The Minnetonka Machine, and where they came from

Minnetonka has by itself ruined high school hockey. Did you just don't-hate-the-playa-hate-the-game me? lol Yes, Slap. I read above from one posted about how HS hockey in Minnesota has been ruined. I see an awful lot of it and believe it is awesome. 2024 and the jig is up, a lot of the best kids pr...

Re: What’s going on in Tonka?

Westie, you are right. The rules at MSHSL have to work for a lot more than hockey. I was asked some questions above. Easy. I'm not an advocate for hockey-only MSHSL rules and I don't see where there are problems with the way things are now. So someone has a problem with Minnetonka, yet they just cut...

Re: 2023-24 Season Transfers

Wesside, there's a lot of speculation there. I have a hard time believing he was going to get a lot of starts going forward when he hadn't had any to this point. If he stopped all the pucks, all bets are off and he'd get all of them. That's the nature of higher levels of hockey like Junior and colle...

Re: 2023-24 Season Transfers

I feel like each year the parents attempt to ruin high school sports more and more with the politics and petty games being played. Combined with more kids leaving for juniors (and with it, the high-end talent) as remote schooling becomes a viable option post-pandemic, I'm trying to sustain my passi...

Great work as always, Karl.

Interesting equal split in Top 10 amongst:
  • Metro Catholics (3)
    Lake (3)
    Northwest Suburban (3)
Going a little deeper in each adds some more:
  • Hill & Holy Fam

MINNETONKA & CHANHASSEN are probably #1 & #2 in every AA ranking right now. (Hat tip to Warroad for me having to make that distinction!) EDEN PRAIRIE, SHAKOPEE & HOLY FAMILY are all Top 20 in the PageStat for AA teams. CHASKA has a lousy record, but they're clearly building for the futur...

And Gentry's Berg is now enrolled at BSM.
There was one player I saw this Spring from Providence who is excellent. Can't recall the name but it wouldn't be hard to figure out if I saw their roster.
