Dumb question of the day: What is the St. Cloud team called? I'm assuming the Huskies?

No, TRF and EGF will man up and move to AA and Rogers and St Mikes will move to the metro....

Roseau, East Grand, Thief River, Bemidji, Moorhead, Brainerd, Alex and St Cloud.....
8AA as it should be....

Now lets fix 7AA.

Who you trying to kid? Not sure what Roseau has but the drop off is pretty steep after Moorhead & Bemidji.
Roseau is not strong but on home ice will be okay.
Brainerd is better than you give them credit.
St Mikeys will be good.

Top two will be tough to beat in back to back games to go to state.

1. Moorhead
2. Bemidji
3. St Cloud
4. St Mikes
5. Rogers
6. Brainerd
7. Roseau
8. Buffalo
1. St. Mike's
2. Moorhead or Bemidji

St. Cloud's top line has a ton of talent. After that...well...um...depth and goaltending may be an issue

I would put Moorhead at 1.


No snip, just a disagreement, no question about St Mike's being in the mix, but Moorhead is good now and will improve as the year progresses.

From my chair and others, they (Moorhead) are #1 right now.

I would have to say that the St. Cloud team has 2 VERY good forward lines to pair with a decent third group. The back end isn't too great and neither is the goaltender. But if this offense can possess the puck they shouldn't be too bad. I see them figuring in around a 4 or 5 seed.

No official name. They self proclaim themselves the "Teagles".

Not sure about the coaches perch....... But Brainerd takes a 2-0 lead after a PP goal in the first and another early in the second. Moorhead then scores three straight PP goals in the second to take a 3-2 lead with about 5 to go in the second.

Might want to stay out of the box fellas.

In front of them leaning over the boards. If he can keep the voice and stamina for a 25 game season I would be surprised.

I wouldn't say Noah is a very nice goaltender. He didn't even play hockey his freshman year or 8th grade I believe. Solid bloodline, but not quite what his brothers were.
I would just like to inform you Noah Althaus is not the starting goaltender for St. Cloud. It's Sorren Falloon from Tech.
