Why is Hibbing not ranked?
Hibbing has beaten Moundwestonka, I Falls, should have beaten Warroad(lost 5-3), beat Lakeville north. There loses are to very good teams, except Chaska which shouldn't have been a close game at all.

Re: Why is Hibbing not ranked?
The exact reason's they aren't ranked. Losses to Chaska and Armstrong and a tie to Mounds View. Those are games you need to win if you want to be ranked highly. I 100% agree with them not being ranked. Even with some tough losses against quality opponents 5-6-1 teams normally aren't in the top 20. If Hibbing can get on a streak you'll see them inch there way into the top 20 but as of now their on the outside looking in.ryno44 wrote:Hibbing has beaten Moundwestonka, I Falls, should have beaten Warroad(lost 5-3), beat Lakeville north.

They have SIX losses after 13 games. Unless those six games were to the top AA teams in the state, no one would ever rank them.
The issue isn't that they're not good (which it looks like they may be from margin of losses), the issue is their number of quality wins; zero.
Bring that number up, they will go up. Period.

I think I-Falls and Lakeville North are quality wins but still 2 is not enough. Mound Westonka wasn't anything special even though their ranked and we'll see after their Albert Lea and Mayo games this weekend its pretty much Section 7 and IRC games down the home stretch and we'll see what their made of of.HShockeywatcher wrote:They have SIX losses after 13 games.

ryno44 was obviously joking when he posted. Hook,line and sinker for all who responded.ryno44 wrote:Hibbing has beaten Moundwestonka, I Falls, should have beaten Warroad(lost 5-3), beat Lakeville north. There loses are to very good teams, except Chaska which shouldn't have been a close game at all.

We have banners on our side too and we can see the scoreboard just fine... especially last year when it said 7-1.ryno44 wrote:Why don't you raise the "1st state appearance in school history" sign so we can see the score board.bluedevils wrote:just wait until Jan 16th... then we will see if Hibbing deserved to be ranked or not....

I'm sorry but a 5-6-1 record in class A right now is not good enough to be in the top 20. It just isn't. I think Hibbing has the potential to be a very good team this season and there's plenty of time for them to do that but as of now judging by record, quality of win, and whom they've lost to them being unranked is perfectly fine and right.nickmon3 wrote:I am a hibbing fan and i agree with ryno44 100%. Hibbing should definitely be ranked.

I guess i kinda see ur point but i would like to see hibbing get ranked in the future. There is plenty of time left in the season for them to step it up and get in some more wins.gophers101 wrote:I'm sorry but a 5-6-1 record in class A right now is not good enough to be in the top 20.

Re: Why is Hibbing not ranked?
Why is Hibbing not ranked??? Most likely because the haven't left the impression of being a top 15 or 20 team on anyone who does any ranking.ryno44 wrote:Hibbing has beaten Moundwestonka, I Falls, should have beaten Warroad(lost 5-3), beat Lakeville north.

PS:
Don't worry about the Lets Play Hockey poll, not really geared toward teams from that area....ifyaknowwhatImean.....
i could read the results from your teams preformance at state too. Every game you have ever played down there your team has lost.bluedevils wrote:We have banners on our side too and we can see the scoreboard just fine... especially last year when it said 7-1.ryno44 wrote:Why don't you raise the "1st state appearance in school history" sign so we can see the score board.bluedevils wrote:just wait until Jan 16th... then we will see if Hibbing deserved to be ranked or not....
