Elk River seeding
I think Cloquet and Duluth Marshall got a bad deal, I have them both ranked much higher than Elk River yet ER gets seeded over them?? I don't even have ER in my top 20. Any thoughts?

Re: Elk River seeding
My thoughts are that while the QRF has its flaws, I am glad 7AA is not using your rankings to seed.HappyHockeyFan wrote:I think Cloquet and Duluth Marshall got a bad deal, I have them both ranked much higher than Elk River yet ER gets seeded over them??

Well you can say what you want about my rankings but Elk River has earned considerable less points than Cloquet and Duluth Marshall:
Cloquet-Esko - 215.5
Duluth Marshall - 175.5
Elk River - 131
Section wins:
Cloquet-Esko - Duluth East, Duluth Marshall, Grand Rapids and another tie with Duluth East.
Duluth Marshall - Forest Lake, Grand Rapids, tie with Duluth East
Elk River - Andover, Grand Rapids
If you want to argue ER over Duluth Marshall, maybe, but over Cloquet?? No way. I wont be a bit surprised if ER loses to Forest Lake, but hey, you wanna love on ER and the "Other" rankings, go for it. All I can say about ER is ... "Over Rated" said like the tournament chant.
Cloquet-Esko - 215.5
Duluth Marshall - 175.5

But yet 90% of my ranking closely matches the other rankings, you make no sense, please tell what ER has done to deserve a top twenty ranking or a #3 seed. Your quick to criticize but you give me nothing to prove your point.Traxler wrote:You are demonstrating how poorly your ranking formula represents what teams have accomplished.HappyHockeyFan wrote:Well you can say what you want about my rankings but Elk River has earned considerable less points than Cloquet and Duluth Marshall:

I guess your rankings are about 90% correct.HappyHockeyFan wrote:But yet 90% of my ranking closely matches the other rankings, you make no sense, please tell what ER has done to deserve a top twenty ranking or a #3 seed.

You asked for thoughts and I gave you my thoughts. If you can’t handle that, why do you ask?

I would appreciate your thoughts if you would include a valid argument as to why you think I am wrong or whatever instead of doing a drive by. But hey, if that's all ya got then whatever.Traxler wrote:I guess your rankings are about 90% correct.HappyHockeyFan wrote:But yet 90% of my ranking closely matches the other rankings, you make no sense, please tell what ER has done to deserve a top twenty ranking or a #3 seed.

You don’t think they beat Eden Prairie or Hill-Murray. The rest of us recognize OT wins.HappyHockeyFan wrote:I would appreciate your thoughts if you would include a valid argument as to why you think I am wrong or whatever instead of doing a drive by.

Ok, give them the EP win, that still only makes them 2-6 against ranked teams, and Hill isn't ranked. I think coming into the season it was thought that ER was going to be a top team, it hasn't panned out that way but some people don't seem to want to let that idea go. But the proof is in the pudding, results, they are a good team but not a top team.Traxler wrote:You don’t think they beat Eden Prairie or Hill-Murray.

In a more serious note, you should give more context to your numbers. Just tossing out random numbers gives no context if I don't know the value of the number. Maybe list out the numbers for all the teams in section 7AA so I can understand it better

Might want to take another math class and adjust your system.
