I think Hibbing should get the #1 seed for 7A. Here is my case: -Vs common opponents, Hibbing is 12-1-2 and Hermantown is 10-3-2. -In 7A, Hibbing is 4-1, and Hermantown is 2-1. The Proctor loss is more of a negative than the narrow 2-1 win over Hibbing is a positive, IMO. And I don't think Hermanto...

I don’t follow East Grand Forks super closely. Their recent trend seems to be underwhelming regular season results. Obviously last year they turned it on at the right time. What are the reasons for their mediocrity between November and Mid-February? Injuries? Other factors? This year, it's a mix of...

Wow, congrats to the Rails!

Booooo! Hard disagree on Hermantown staying #1 over Hibbing after this week's results. Hibbing outscored its two unranked AA opponents 10-2, not giving up a goal over the last 5 periods of the two games. Hermantown blew a 3 goal lead with 8 minutes left in the game to tie unranked DM, then essentia...

What is the overall sentiment on Proctor? The Bantam team took a bit hit with the freshman moving up, but how have those freshman and sophs looked thus far on varsity. Not much left in the pipeline, so these 2-3 years might be their last chance at putting something together after a few solid Bantam...

7AA is now as weak as 1AA without Andover and the other metro teams the MSHSL has shipped out of the section in recent years. We basically have two meaningless sections now in AA whose teams will get beat in the quarterfinals of state every year. Meanwhile, the metro sections are packed. We’ve gott...

Am I wrong? We’d get a better team from northeast MN playing in AA tourney this year if 7A was 7AA this season. No? We would have had a different champion in AA many times in the last 30 years if we had 1 class. No doubt about it. Warroad and Hermantown would have depleted a few AA trophy cases alo...

I thought Hibbing overall played well vs Shakopee, but they couldn't capitalize on the major power play they had in the 2nd. They moved the puck well and had chances, but the Shakopee goalie was tough to beat. Other than the Cloquet game, Hibbing has looked pretty solid. Still a lot of room to impro...

A couple surprises on Hermantown's roster- -A bantam-eligible player is on the varsity roster (Zhukov). I don't ever recall a bantam moving up there, will this be the new norm? -Three top sophomores have left the program. (Nash and Wise to AAA, Hedley to Rock Ridge.) -Only two goalies on the entire...

YHH reporting Henry Sampair coming back to Mahtomedi for the season. Probably moves them up the rankings some.

Love the previews!

Bold take for 7A:
I-Falls wins 20 games and gets #3 seed. Looking at their schedule, I'd guess they only have one game where they won't be favored.

Below are the Class A Transfers have heard of so far this offseason. Feel free to add more. The season is close~ (Players moving to Class A Schools) RJ Wasilowski (Northfield)- Faribault Forward (29 pts) transferring to Northfield August Hansen (Waseca)- U16 Pittsburgh Defenseman returning home to ...

I think it's weird that since the MSHSL got into the business of deciding who "belongs" in A or AA, why it doesn't go both ways? If a program is too economically disadvantaged and unsuccessful to be in AA, then why can't they decide an A program is too economically advantaged and successfu...

:!: I'll be posting the final ratings tomorrow morning, but having just run the numbers: 1. Stillwater ended up #2, Moorhead #3, a flip from before the tournament (their goal differential of +8 vs +5 for Moorhead may have had something to do with this, but more likely it was a shift in SOS. I'll ex...

Interesting how these two teams don’t get crap for playing single A, with how many championships and appearances they’ve had, why do they get a pass? They get a pass because they are not in the path of Hibbing making it to state. Only Hermantown gets that wonderful distinction. If EGF of SCC were i...

Green Wave just got screwed, big time. No worse than Hibbing did in the semis. And this isn't a complaint, it's a compliment. EGF saw that the refs were gonna swallow the whistles and not call a major unless a player was actually murdered on the ice, so they let rip with the dangerous hits. By the ...

Congrats to EGF. Instead of folding after going down 5-2, they turned it on and took over.

If Hibbing makes mistakes like they have here against a team like Cathedral they will lose. Agreed! They are very casual in their own end even in the next game vs EGF or NL they will need to clean it up Also agreed! Waaaay too much cutesy dangling. Move the puck! That was the Hibbing team of the fi...
