How many ND HS seniors are playing jr's instead this year?

You had quite a few underclassmen head to the North Star/Sioux Falls/Shattuck of the world.  The Seniors I know of are Luc Bydal (Red River), and Colton Getzlaff (Bottineau)  in the SJHL, and Max Vig (Century) went to Central Oklahoma of the NAHL.

There are probably ones that I'm forgetting, but those were the main seniors.

Keup from Century left for Fox Motors as well.

Fargo Force Fall Showcase this weekend. Quite a lot of AAA teams from around the country attending.

Team ND 14U through 18U playing in it. Should be some good games to see how Team ND competes against them.

Rumor has it, our old friend the Dasher Dancer has his high school team up from Colorado to play in it...

I thought the 16U hung pretty well with Nashville.  When you consider who that group of kids lost to North Star and Sioux Falls.

That Spiewak kid is fun to watch. ;)

Fargo Davies girls coach resigned this week.  Tough blow for them, especially this time of year.  Pretty damn impressive resume:

 

Issertell served as head coach for the past nine years, including two as the South/Davies co-op head coach. He led the Eagles to a state championship in 2021 and three second-place finishes in 2020, 2022 and 2023. Issertell was named Eastern Dakota Conference Coach of the Year in 2016 and the North Dakota High School Coaches Association Coach of the Year in 2020.

Season starts in two weeks.  Hope the assistants can step in.

Probably my sweetest victory as the coach for the Blue Jay girls hockey team was beating South in the opening round of the state tourney in 13’ by the score of 4-2. Their first line was lethal and the girls held them to one goal. That and my goalie played the game of her life. Great memory for sure

Devils Lake over Jamestown 5-2 to open the boys season.  

Big tilt on the Girls side today.  Mandan travels to Fargo North.  IMO, the 2 favorites going into the season.  

Jays are lacking depth this season after graduating 14 seniors. Making state could be tough

After watching jamboree in Mandan yesterday the west will be a toss up with the sabers, Minot and century. Mandan has a goalie to keep them right there with those teams.  CHS will be really good up front.  Minot will be solid, they brought in some good youth.  Legacy, depends on which team shows up.

Girls side, all in state match ups Tuesday.  After North and Mandan, every game is worth a follow, it's going to be a complete crap shoot.  

DSH-Willy: 2 scrappy teams last year, each only lost 1-2 Seniors.  Should be a battle.

CHS-Minot: Minot lost great SRs after finishing 3rd last year.  They do have Ackerman who may be best goalie.  CHS light up front, good on the back end.

DL-WF: Lotta WF girls bolted town, they have a great tendy who just signed at Concordia.  DL may have best player in the state in Abrahamson, who's always dangerous.

GF-Davis: Lot of unknowns in this one.  2 new coaching staffs.  Should be interesting.

Jamestown-LB: LB lost both goalies to AAA teams, 3 good D to graduation and top F to ACL injury.  Not sure much on Jamestown but they do have Sorlie in net, who is a very good goalie. 

Interesting night ahead.    

 

Tues. 21st:   Dickinson at Williston    7:30 PM  
    Bismarck Century at Minot    7:00 PM  
    Grand Forks at Fargo Davies    7:30 PM  
    Devils Lake at West Fargo United    7:00 PM  
    Jamestown at Legacy/Bismarck    7:00 PM  
   
 
Fri. 24th:   SE U18AA Goldwings at Minot    7:30 PM  
    West Fargo United at Crookston    5:00 PM at Thief River Falls
   
 
Sat. 25th:   West Fargo United at Thief River Falls    12:00 PM at Thief River Falls
    Legacy/Bismarck at East Grand Forks    4:30 PM

Guess I gotta add WF to the radar, 3-2 over FN.  Legacy gets North and WF this weekend, Century will get WF Friday.  A couple good crossover games there. 

Girls: 2 OT (Davies over GF + Jimmy over LB) games and 2 other 1 G (Minot over CHS + Dicky over Willy games last night.  That's the way it'll be this year.
