This looks like a pretty good tourney.
Lots of good quality teams.

I don't know much about the "outstate" teams, but would be interested in finding out more.

Please post scores to all the games if you get a chance.
THANK YOU!!!

I know that Fargo is undefeated on the year at 11-0 I know they beat Moorhead this past week 8-1 I agree they have to be the favorite.. Other than that how about Roseau and Brooklyn Park.

[SLP/SW Coach]

Here is some info on the teams that I am aware of......

Brooklyn Park is a solid team. They have size, skill, and speed. Just not too many players that possess all 3 at the same time. From what I know they can play with anybody. Their game should be suitable Vs the northern style of physical play.

Prior Lake seems to be the "tale of two teams." As they have beat some good teams, but has also lost big at couple of times. They have played a tough schedule and should be ready for this tourney.

Wayzata is a very solid team. They don't necessarily have 1-2 superstars, but are very good top to bottom. You'll probably notice 5-6 kids stand out a bit though. They started the season in a bit of a slump, but have really seemed to turn it on as of late.

Lakeville North is a team of goaltending and defense. They don't seem to put a lot of pucks in the net, but they sure don't give you many chances against them. This team is good.

Champlin Park is really a 2 player team. One player a defenseman that does it all and the other is their goaltender who comes up with big save after big save. I'm not saying there is nothing else with this team, but you'll know right away that these 2 carry the team.

Anoka seems to be up and down. If they have learned to stay out of the box, they can play a solid game. They are a team that plays very well on their emotion. They skate hard and "go after it."

What about Grand Forks Wheat Kings?
