You give the 2nd tier teams a chance to play other teams at their level. It will probably help grow their programs as kids are more likely to go out for hockey if they are not getting their a$$ kicked all the time.

I on Ryan Cunningham's show that GFC asked Sheyenne to play 1 game for 4 points to free up a game, but they didn't go for it and their responds was fine but then we are only going to play once in Girls B-Ball and Volleyball.

Minto North? Lol. Minot North, but the idea of North Minto having a team makes me laugh.

MN Class AA Tournament is already the greatest HS State Tournament in the US. They are not changing a darn thing.

I follow plenty of Hockey. The original Question you replied to was regarding Parents sending there kids to play in MN and you were comparing EDC to Class A hockey. The Programs they would be sending their kids to are not playing the bottom barrel Class A schools. Take a look at EGF's, and Warroad's Schedule and tell me they is not a much tougher schedule than any ND school.

You started by comparing the whole MN Class A vs just the EDC, which is Ridiculous. Grand Forks schools are winning the EDC almost every year. If you put them in MN Class A, they are winning a state championship one time out of 10 years.

RR didn't play a single MN AA team this last year. Looks like they went 1-3 vs Class A Teams.

LOL. Section 7A alone is better than EDC. The Look at EGF's Schedule. Look at the Competition they played. ND High School rules don't allow for GFC and RR to Play as many out of conference games as the MN Schools play.

So the school board is having consultants do it. No matter what they will not make everyone happy. Stand by what I said school board needs to figure it out that is what they are elected to do. Make the tough decision and stand by it.

Because the school board is gutless. Just need to draw the new boundary lines and let it be. This public input is ridiculous. They were elected for the position and should do what they were elected for. Can still allow applications to move schools, and approve as needed.

Your honestly complaining about the TV work on the Consolation side of the bracket. Not even MN broadcasts the consolation side of the bracket. IMO you are paying for the Championship side, the rest is just included.

Bubba, took the team from 3 Wins, to 5 Wins, to 7 Wins, than to 9 Wins. I guess the 7 and 9 win teams had Muss Recruits on them, but Bubba and his staff are the ones the got the wins. I can't give Muss credit for what Bubba got done those years. Ironically Muss had very good Offensive players and Bubba got the team to play decent Defense, which resulted in Wins. Toward the end of Bubba time we were praying for a Decent Defense.

I've very interested to see how Central handles him tonight. I know they have played twice and I don't think he did much. Granted I've only seen him play once, but when his team doesn't have the puck he seems to coast around and not do much. No doubt the kid has talent, but sure seems lazy. Maybe that is the game plan as it seems to work for WF.

WF kid should have got an extra minor for hitting the Ref in the Face with his stick, intentional or not he needs to control his stick.

Plenty of Consequences the next 2 weekends. Split this weekend and sweep next we have a decent shot at the 3 seed. As the 3 Seed, if we get out of the 1st round we are more than likely playing ASU in the Semi's. Path to the NCHC tourney Championship much easier with at least a split this weekend.

I'm guessing they would go the route of so many other Private MN Schools and recruit giving the best players in the area the opportunity to compete against MN teams. I would guess the ultimate goal would be MN class AA Hockey. Its something I've always thought Sacred Heart in EGF should do.

Why is it that any time UND has a good weekend its got to be because the other team sucks. I previous weekend UMD beat and tied AZ State. They also split with Denver. Not even close to being on the same level as Miami. The unbalance schedule sucks. All Teams should should play each other 4 times. If that can't happen than we have too many team in the conference. Now it is going to get worse adding St Thomas.

Top 2 Regular season Teams advance to State automatically and get a bye week before state. Remaining teams are split into 4 Divisions hosted in Fargo, GF, Bismarck and Minot. Whatever teams advance from the 4 divisions go to state. This should get better teams at state and puts emphasis on win or go home. This year Central, Red River, Minot and Century advance to state automatically and the Playin's being. Bismarck Play in Legacy vs Mayville Devils Lake vs Williston Winners play to go to state Minot Play in Mandan vs GPR North vs Bismarck Winners play to go to state Fargo Play in WF vs Hazen Beulah Bottineau vs Sheyenne Winners play to go to state Grand Forks Play in Davies vs Dickinson Jamestown vs South/Shanley Winners play to go to state

IMO the way the ND does their Class A Tournaments the 5 Seed and 8 Seeds are the worse Seeds. If you are the 5 Seed you need to go the 4 Seeds home Ice in the first round and if you don't win you are behind the 8 ball as you are going to more that likely need to beat the 2 or 3 seed in the State qualifier. Would much rather be the 6 or 7 as if you can win the loser out game you have a likely match up with the 4 seed on neutral ice to go to state.

Montgomery is the perfect extra Skater. He can play Forward and Defense. Plug him in where needed.

IMO this is the worst day of the whole high school season (regardless of Sport). To me it makes the Hockey State tournament into a fraud. It is nothing but a replay of the EDC tournament.

Please tell me what college has a graduating class of 40K?

My only real problem with the current OT system is that the media acts like the an OT Win and a Regulation Win are the same. Last weekend was not a split. ASU got 4 pts and UND got 2 pts. I'm a fan of something along the lines of this. I doubt 3x3 goes away as I think the majority of Fans actually enjoy it. The ones that have a problem with it are the Hockey purists. The problem I have is when a loss and OT Win are called a split. If you get 2 of 6 points you did not split the weekend. I don't think the average fan at the game realizes that the OT win is not the same as a regulation win. I've had a few conversations with students and they will tell me a win is a win after an OT win. I will tell them not exactly and they have told me they never know that.

It makes we wonder why no one ever puts on asterisk by the 20-21 hockey season. Everything was different at the time, however posters only want to crap on Bubba for the season. IMO anyone not counting the win in the spring season loses all credibility to rip the previous coach as they are ignoring the facts. I have not been supporter of Bubba for a few years now.

This * BS is just a way for the Bubba haters to crap on Bubba more. It was 100% a playoff win and the season 100% counted. It needs to stop.
