This is more accurate.
Okay, I'll bite. What's your beef with North Shore?
No beef, I think that is where they belong. I don't see any quality wins. Against the one decent team they played, the game wasn't even close.

-Apollo showing they are every bit a state title contender by taking Breck to OT.
-Mahtomedi reminding everyone they will be a factor in A by beating STA.
-Hibbing squeaking by an inferior opponent in Virginia. Bad omen, or did they display some mental toughness by winning a game despite the opposing goalie standing on his head?
-Greenway throttling I-Falls. Style points aren't given out, but 10-1 is a thorough destruction.
-Delano also squeaking by a lesser team.
-TRF playing a solid AA team tough (Moorhead) shouldn't hurt their ranking much.

1. Hermantown
2. Breck
3. Apollo
4. Mahtomedi
5. Hibbing
6. SPA
7. Delano
8. EGF
9. Greenway
10. TRF
SPA beat MA 3-0.
Was #5 North Shore(Mn-scores) able to reach double digits in shots tonight vs. that powerful Eveleth team?
Really? You made the above post in response to one that didn't even mention North Shore.

Well, NS had 8 shots on goal for the night vs Greenway. Very unimpressive when you have 10 minutes of power play vs 2. If Greenway is the best team in the state, I might feel differently. I don't think anyone is ready to crown Greenway state champs. I don't even see an impressive win on their schedule. MN scores has no credibility.

I think the real question might be: "Is 7A the deepest section for goaltenders in the state?"

Luke Olson, Hermantown: 10-2, 1.85 GAA, .926 sv%
Ryan Ullan-Hibbing: 15-1, 1.51 GAA, .934 sv%
Niclas Westerholm-Virginia: 3-8-2, 3.23 GAA, .912 sv% (He's had a sv% above .920 in 10/14 games)
Mike LaDoux, Greenway: 8-2, 1.49 GAA, .926 sv%
River Alander, Denfeld: 6-7-1, 2.45 GAA, .917 sv %

All five of these kids are very, very good.
