East may have to play Cambridge. Remember they went into OT this year
I think Randolph would like to avoid seed 7 and 8. Not surprised at the results. True to form

Amazing, how does that happen? SARS would have been kicking butt!Slammer wrote:I'm still chuckling at the fact that East has the number one seed. Unbelievable
I don't think Randolph or the Hounds are too worried about playing Cambridge this time of year.CB00 wrote:East may have to play Cambridge. Remember they went into OT this year�� I think Randolph would like to avoid seed 7 and 8. Not surprised at the results. True to form
Having seen the Hounds a few times this year and knowing how these things work that is bad thinking for them if he is thinking that way. Attitudes like that have teams sitting home watching the teams who were worried about everybody play the game.Houndhockey wrote:I don't think Randolph or the Hounds are too worried about playing Cambridge this time of year.CB00 wrote:East may have to play Cambridge.

It is pretty confusing..Slammer wrote:I'm still chuckling at the fact that East has the number one seed. Unbelievable
It's not to say that he won't have his team show up and look past this game, but the beginning of the year was awful for the Hounds. They are a much better team now, than they were in November. Maybe they can't say it, or even think it, but as a fan, I'm not worried with Cambridge. Now looking at the possible semi final matchups, that is a different story. Any team 1-5 has a shot on any given day.Winter is Coming wrote:Having seen the Hounds a few times this year and knowing how these things work that is bad thinking for them if he is thinking that way.

The last 2 times Cloquet went to Elk for playoffs, I swear the Lumberjacks had more fans in the stands.alcloseshaver wrote:Elk River doesn't travel with many fans either. Small crowd at home when they played Blaine, was surprised by it considering their girls team played a section game prior.
Where are all those fans from Hockey Day? I think in general the norther teams have better fan bases than down south, though teams like Edina and Hill Murray have a lot show up at state. It is surprising to me given being in a large suburb and the history of Elk River that they don't have more fans. They are really missing out on a great overall experience in Duluth, not just Amsoil Arena, but everything that Duluth has to offer around the arena. I couldn't ask for anything better for the playoffs.alcloseshaver wrote:Elk River doesn't travel with many fans either.

So they will have a crowd then, lot's of good hockey fans up north.TheHockeyDJ wrote:andover v elk river would be after the first game at around 2:30

Man...Grand Rapids has a ton of fans on this forum followed by Duluth East. That's great for your programs !hawkenjonny wrote:Can't really be that surprised by DE selection? I am looking forward to some great 7AA games. Picking GR to come through it. Cmon Thawks.
. Think the elks might be ready for taking it this year. It will be tough east is well coached. Home ice and homer refs help give east that extra edge needed to get to Saint PaulHockeyStorm wrote:CI over St. Francis

I meant elk over East. My bad. Going to be tough for East to potentially play two of the goalie of the year candidates to get to the X. Especially with East's lack of scoring at times.Traxler wrote:I agree, no upsets.TheInsider wrote:1 East

@grhshockey this is absolutely ridiculous. What's the point of sectional play if it hardly affects the outcome? East should not be above 3
