"Bitter about something" your table for one is now ready.
They got the top three right, in whatever order.
After that its a clusterfluke anyway...

Maybe you should start your own hockey publication if you know so much more than the folks at Let's Play Hockey.
Preseason rankings mean absolutely nothing anyway.

I think the seperation is after Roseau and Edina, then again after Centennial. But I don't have the green shaded glasses on.
CDH at 20 is a bit surprising.

rbk28 is from Champlin. You know the saying... "Those who can do,
DO. Those who can't, get on a hockey board and rant about those who can".

Preseason polls are always drastically different than they are in March. With that said...the poll doesn't look all that bad.

It's going to be a hard and tough road for LF, we will see how they do without their star player.

I saw them a handful of times last year, and on the surface it sure seems that the little they had, they lost this season. I don't know much about the bantams and who's coming in, but I agree... this is surprising to me as well.

IMO Anoka is better than Blaine and Centennial... they all play eachother twice. Those will be fun games

I would hope they are ranked in the top 20, they just dropped down to A. Hey Elliot, how did they look in GR this morning? I saw a part of the Bemidji/PR scrimmage and it looked like they could hold their own against anyone in that section. Very physical and other than Lehrke and his talented linemate/UMD prospect PR had just about nothing for them.

Didn't Hermantown win the single A tourney and go undefeated last year? was there team full of seniors?
