May be a bit early... and I may be way off, projections as of now.

Plus, a question. I know seedings are not for a few weeks... but is there any talk about using QRF from Mn-Sports like in some other sports... Or will section coaches keep getting together and rank teams (not looking for a debate, just info:) for the seeds.

1. Lourdes
2. West
3. New Prague
4. Northfield
5. Albert Lea
6. Faribault
7. Le Sueur Co-op

There's been a lot of split time between Mankato West's goalies Spiess and Wollenzien. Anyone with any insight on which one should be starting games come section time?

My take right now:

1. Lourdes- Not as strong this year but until someone knocks them off.....
2. West- they have a shot...but next year is really their year
3. New Prague
4. Northfield....by default.
5. Albert Lea...could easily place these guys at 7 or 8. This is a spot that can change
6. LS/SP
7. Red Wing....down but tough schedule
8. Faribault
9 Austin
10. Mankato East
11. Waseca
12. La Crescent

I would put the second seed as a toss up between New Prague and West strictly by Strength of schedule. Too bad they don't play each other again during the regular season, the first game shouldn't be a factor in the seedings IMO.

I guess the second meeting of Lourdes and New Prague can better determine the second seed. I'd have it as this as of today -

1. Lourdes
2. West
3. New Prague
4. Northfield
5. Albert Lea
6. LSP
7. Mankato East
8. Red Wing
9. Austin
10. Faribault
11. Waseca
12. La Crescent

I don't want to put Red Wing so low, but I'd be shocked if they win five games by the end of the regular season... I can't in good conscious seed them higher than half the rest of the group. The best you can say is they tied New Prague, and their wins came over Shakopee and Farmington... :oops:

West 4-1 over Albert Lea. Shots 33-23, West.

West third line scored twice on it's first shift of the game (W Christian Klemme had both goals) but then Albert Lea played West even most of the rest of the game.

Faribault over Austin: 4-2
New Ulm over Waseca: 9-3

West vs. Albert Lea and Lourdes vs. Tartan scores provided in earlier post.

A quick question about Lourdes goaltending though - I see that Jack Burkel has been starting in the "bigger" games this season (St. Thomas, Benilde, Tartan) and has also been playing more frequently as of late. Is this a developmental piece? Or is the Lourdes starting spot open between Ellingston and Burkel?

You really thought Red Wing could beat Northfield. Red Wing is in a down year (rebuilding). I expect Red Wing to be at the top of the section next year and the following year.

I thought Northfield might look past Red Wing--the Wingers were ahead after the 2nd period, so I don't think the pick was that over the top.

Red Wing will be down for a while... The upcoming players aren't that strong. I believe the bantam group has won two games this season, both over the Winona B teams (Red Wing is an A). Goaltending is also a major issue from here on out for the next three to four years.

It definitely wasn't an over the top pick. The past couple seasons Northfield has been the leader of the two teams. I had mentioned earlier in the season that the Wingers have issues closing out games - they were ahead in numerous games and ended up blowing the lead in the third period. Whether it be inexperience, laziness, or just youth, the Wingers have issues finishing the job and that showed with the last game.

I don't know, inexperienced now, but the younger players are getting some good experience which will carry over to next year. I think RW may be in the top 4 in the section next year. We'll just have to see what next year brings.
