I know a few years back if you lived in GFC district they wouldn't let you go to RR. Interesting. Was always told it was open enrollment in GF. Quote

Just a random hockey thought, nothing backing that, just a thought. 1 Quote

Just a random hockey thought, nothing backing that, just a thought. Park boys currently play for South. Has been that way as long as I can recall. Park girls have played for Moorhead the past few seasons. Prior to that it was with WFU. Good idea on MN 6A though. Does have some sizzle to it on face value. Quote

Not exactly the top tier teams from MN in most of those games, but take it for what it's worth. Grafton was 4-1 against MN teams... ND State Runner-Up GFC went 5-0 with wins over Warroad, Providence Academy, Bemidji, and 2 over EGF. Any wins over a KCC team that finished with 2 wins is discredited. They had 11 kids on their roster. And are we really gonna puff our chest about CHS beating Ifalls? Maybe Roseau beating Sheyenne 9-0 and Minot 7-1 is better. But yes, always fun to see the GF teams play EGF, Roseau, Moorhead and Warroad. Quote

My thought: The opportunity to join a relatively weak section in class A hockey and you have a fantastic opportunity to play in the Minnesota State tournament. Alexandria (likely winner) lost to Sheyenne this year. Wahpeton got out of ND with their ties to Breck, you would think that Park Christian would allow Shanley to do the same. I guess a lot would depend on numbers of the Angels program. 1 Quote

ChadR Posted February 27 Posted February 27 Any North Dakota seniors playing Juniors now that the season is over? Quote
Johnny Five Posted February 28 Posted February 28 Maybe there'll be some chatter about that at NIT camp this weekend. Quote
Yote 53 Posted February 29 Posted February 29 BTW - I loved following this thread this season. The Midwest High School League championships start this weekend, Iowa/Nebraska/Kansas. So, programs that many of you come across in the youth ranks from Sioux City, Des Moines, Omaha, Kansas City, Waterloo, etc. The hockey is actually pretty good, though would not challenge the GF schools, much like the rest of NoDak has trouble with that beast. We suffer from the same issues. Most of the top players leave HS for AAA. In most years, close to 20-25 players or more leave for other teams. It hurts the overall quality of HS hockey and if more players stayed home it would be better. Admittedly, when my oldest reached HS age he left for AAA and did not play HS. Bottom line is that if you don't play HS in MN or a few other select areas (like GF and maybe other places in NoDak) you are not seen and any accomplishments are not taken seriously by junior hockey coaches and scouts. You have no chance at playing at the USHL or NAHL levels unless you leave. It's not the fault of the kids or the parents. Trust me, they sacrifice and would love to stay home. It's the fault of the system. Quote

The rink will be packed and we all get to benefit. 2 Quote

petey23 Posted March 1 Posted March 1 So with 7 of the 8 AA Sections complete, I believe 6 teams who were seeded #1 in their section will not be playing in the Excel Quote
