I don't beleive that South has what it takes to beat a very talented GPR team, South relies too much on one line and two defensemen, other than that they have no depth. When it comes down to it the Campbells will capitalize on Souths lack of depth.
I would put Bismarck infront of Minot. I'm not trying to dis the West but they don't have as good of competition as the East. So even with the goaltending Bismarck High will have i think they will be further up in the ranks. I think BIsmarck High will be #1 in the West they have a strong team coming back.
i dont thin kyou know what you're talking about. dump and chase hockey? no south does not play dump and chase hockey obviously you dont pay much attention or you know nothing about hockey. i looked at souths roster last year and only 3 forwards were six feet or taller and 2 of those players didnt get much ice timeexcept one of them got a hat-trick against shanley in the first period last year, i wouldnt call south a big hockey team in any sence.
I agree that Marc Harrie is a talented palyer however South losing him is not much of an impact, after all how many goals did he score lats year?...2.....?
From what I heard on the two webcasts of their games the dakotas played well, but unfortunately Mario Lamoureux was the only Dakota chosen to go to Germany.
i agree south has a very good chance in those 4 years, they will have very strong teams, with very strong goaltending next year from the Senior Ben Mclean and Sean Deichert backing up.
'07...? do you relize who south has right now? saying souths best chance at state is in '07 is crazy, thats like saying whapeton will be the best team in the state next year.
