You believe Roseau would make it through Warroad EGF and TRF every year? Yeah I do, and if you don't you have not watched enough Northern Minnesota hockey. EGF has always been BRUTAL until just recently I played all those teams growing up. I admit Roseau has been in a slump the last couple years. B...

A basement, garage or other open area at home loaded with a net, backstop, stick handling balls, heavy weight pucks, 100-200 regular pucks, stick handling balls and good music!

Relatively cheap, fun and beats video games all day long! :D

okay I HAVE A SOLUTION. Do the thing exactly like NCAA hockey. 16 teams in the tourny. Teams are ranked and selected by a committee by the MSHSL. Teams that are not in the top 16 in the rankings have a chance to make the tourny by winning their section. Pretty sure this system works well in college...

You would not believe how small the town of Williams is. Absolutely amazing to finish runner-up twice. Did that town used to be bigger or what? It shows a current population of 210. Total area of 1.0 sq mi.?? Makes Roseau look huge by comparison. :) Lee Need someone a lot older than me for details ...

1 tourney. 1 class, 16 teams. Section tourneys would be awesome. So many great arenas around the state that would be rocking for a chance to get to the STATE TOURNEY. Bigs, Smalls, and Privates would come together to make the greatest tourney better year after year.
