Well its been a rough week and a half so what are your thoughts today? 1-10 AA and A

Simley is a top 10 A team once they return to full strength - and yes I'm biased. I am running KRACH rankings today, but they won't be of much value I don't think until mid-dec at the earliest as the computer will need more data. Nice part is that hte new site helps me keep track of everything easier and in a more presentable fashion...

Class AA 1. Eden Prairie 2. Stillwater 3. Wayzata 4. Roseville 5. Holy Angels 6. Cloquet 7. North St. Paul 8. Bemidji 9. Anoka 10. Benilde St. Margaret’s Class A 1. Hibbing 2. South St. Paul 3. Warroad 4. New Prague 5. Blake 6. Farmington 7. Alexandria 8. Totino Grace 9. Crookston 10. Simley It's way to early to get to wrapped up in these rankings. I could be way off on a bunch of these. There are teams losing to teams I would have never guessed. From what I've seen, it takes a team deep in talent to do well! That really looks like the case this year. There are many top players, but if they are not on teams with good 2nd and 3rd lines it could really affect their overall team production. What does everyone else think? I haven't watched very many teams yet. Are there teams people are impressed with, or team people are not impressed with?

I think Farmington needs to be rated higher. We will see what they really have tomorrow night versus SSP. We know they can score (32 goals in 3 games) but can their goaltending and defense hold down SSP? SSP 5 Farmington 2

Warroad lost to Henry Sibley 2-1, but Warroad was without Holly Roberts for that game. Not sure if Warroad should of dropped in rankings because of that. I think SSP has to be ranked #1 right now. This will be a true test for Farmington when they play SSP. Will see if they warrant higher ratings after that game?

I think hockeyhead's teams all belong in top 10, I just question order as it's way too soon to tell exactly where everyone belongs. As time goes on it will become more clear obviously, but two good groups of ten for now...

Artificial Ice · Post by **Artificial Ice** » Fri Nov 25, 2005 12:12 pm

I don't get it? Farmington gets beat 9-0 and moves up 3 spots from #6 to #3? Did they vote prior to the results of SSP vs Farmington game?

ghshockeyfan · Post by **ghshockeyfan** » Fri Nov 25, 2005 3:34 pm

I haven't seen the latest LPH rankings, but note that they were done pre-SSP/Farmington game this week (early vote submission due to the holiday I hear... noon/3Pm tue - game wasn't until that night...)

I think Stillwater is one of the best teams in AA. They have really impressed me from what I have seen and heard of them. I know it's early in the season but I think they could be a contender for the state title if they continue to be as sucessful as they are right now.

Class AA 1. Eden Prairie 2. Stillwater 3. Wayzata 4. Roseville 5. Academy Holy Angels 6. North 7. Cloquet 8. Bemidji 9. Benilde St. Margaret’s 10. Henry Sibley 11. Eagan 12. Coon Rapids 13. Anoka 14. Elk River 15. Edina 16. Centennial 17. Chaska 18. Grand Rapids Greenway 19. St. Cloud Tech 20. Chisago Lakes Some new blood here... but these are my thoughts... it is still early yet. There are a handful in the top 10 of Class A that are very good as well.

Nice to finally see Grand Rapids/Greenway on the list. Watch for them to break top 10. They've got a good group of girls with a ton of talent.

ghshockeyfan · Post by **ghshockeyfan** » Wed Nov 30, 2005 8:08 am

Hopkins needs to be on this list.

hockeyhead · Post by **hockeyhead** » Wed Nov 30, 2005 9:14 am

I agree! Hopkins had a big win last night against a great Wayzata team. Hopkins has had a good year so far! Hockeyhead

The new Let's Play Hockey rankings come out today - anybody want to take a stab at the top 10 in Class A. Just for fun here are mine! 1-South St. Paul 2-Hibbing 3-Warroad 4-New Prague 5-Blake 6-Farmington 7-Alexandria 8-Crookston 9-Simley 10-Totino Grace

ghshockeyfan · Post by **ghshockeyfan** » Wed Nov 30, 2005 2:10 pm

I think it's a good list, and I agree with the majority of the order. I think the placement of two of the teams on the list is up for debate due to the fact that they have not done well as of late due to missing players. How much do you penalize a team rankings wise for this? that's what's a tough call. When I look at rankings, I think of which team I would like to play least, and I make them #1. Next least #2, and so on. Then I look at if my choices conflict with recent results, but some of those recent results may need to be taken into consideration in the proper context... Was the team at full strength, etc. I still think it's a good list, and I agree with the majority of the order.

ghs, don't worry about a stupid ratings list, they really don't mean anything as i'm sure you know. the only thing that matters is who is standing at the end.. i believe your team will get what they deserve a little down the road...

ghshockeyfan · Post by **ghshockeyfan** » Wed Nov 30, 2005 2:53 pm

Good point! Blake has been a bit short too I believe as of late, but I could be wrong. And totally off topic, I'm sure some have seen this already, but neat video link that was sent to me recently... <a href="http://www.raleighstreethockey.com/vide ...

Artificial Ice · Post by **Artificial Ice** » Wed Nov 30, 2005 5:58 pm

Here's mine: 1. SSP 2. Hibbing 3. Warroad 4. Blake 5. Crookston 6. Farmington 7. New Prague 8. Alexandria 9. Totino Grace 10. Simley I think SSP could even win AA this year!

The machine took my quart · Wed Nov 30, 2005 6:31 pm

These teams are all solid! I think there is a huge drop in Class A after these teams though. As mentioned before many of these teams would be top 10 in AA but AA has way more depth, big time. I don't get to see LPH very often but am interested in what they say in A, and AA.

LPH (from 11/23): Note that this was voted on before tue 11/22 games due to the holiday... 1 SSP 2 Hibbing 3 Farmington 4 Waroad 5 NP 6 Blake 7 Crookston 8 Alex 9 TG 10 Simley 11 Breck 12 Shakopee 13 St. Louis Park 14 New Ulm 15 Silver Bay/TH 16 Mahtomedi 17 Fergus Falls 18 Andover (This is a Class AA team) 19 St. Paul United 20 Mound-Westonka

I assume this was done before Wayzeta lost to Hopkins and Anoka. How do you think that will change their ranking?

ghshockeyfan · Post by **ghshockeyfan** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 9:04 am

This was done after Way lost to Hopkins, but before they lost to Anoka. Seems they outshot Anoka, but Hopkins the shot count was closer. I look at this too if I didn't see a game, plus always want to know what other factors may have played in - players out/injured/etc., lots of PK/PP time in the game, etc. W/out a detailed boxscore (or better yet seeing the game) it's hard to say exactly what happened. The bottom line is that I think it's early in the year and we're going to see some adjustment to the rankings, and I do think that Way lost to two very underrated teams. Anoka is much better than what most give them credit for, and the same is even more true for the Hopkins squad.

maroonhockey · Post by **maroonhockey** » Thu Dec 01, 2005 10:53 am

Was at the game last night, the first line of each team was well-matched, but Anoka's second line was just better. Lorch for Anoka (2nd line) had a hat-trick. Wayzata's Freshman goaltender struggled. Anoka is underrated and will surprise some teams.

tiffany johnson of wayzata also had a hat trick, had one in the hopkins game to
