2024-25 ND High School Hockey

[Oxbow6]

Great year by the Spuds

remember, you don't want guys that are dominating because they are big or old...you want to see 2009s that can skate and think it...you don't want stationary shooters...you don't want guys who go to soft spots...not yet...you gotta see guys that translate to the next level...D1 is two levels up...can they skate and do they have IQ.  If not, 35 goals translates to 2.  If so 12 translates to 20.

congrats to section 8!!!

Moorhead is the size of Grand Forks and they have one high school. If Grand Forks did the same, they would beat Moorhead 6 out of 10.

Moorhead enrollment 1600

GF 2350

GFC 1100 / GFRR 1250

*numbers should probably be double checked but interesting.

Stillwater using our goal song?

No, they are using the Chicago Blackhawks goal song who started using Chelsea Daggar as their song first before UND copied them.

UND started using it in 2010 I believe.

I think the Chicago Blackhawks started to use it a year or two earlier.

I assume this isn't a serious question?? Moorhead would destroy EGF.

they lost to moorhead 6-3 a couple months ago and they obviously changed/improved since then considering they went from allowing 11 goals to st cloud c to just 1 in the title game?

That game against Moorhead was in EGF. EGF would have no answer for Mason Kraft. He has gotten better throughout the year. Moorhead also has better players and more depth. It would not be that close if they played now.

Serious question to the Forks people......if you have a kids that's a upper tier player in the Forks why wouldn't you put your kid at EGFHS? Play in an empty Ralph or possibly be a part of what we've watch last couple days.

Clown comment.

Because some kids and family's still have pride and commitment to playing for their hometowns. All this transfering and importing has gotten out of hand. It's gross in college and even worse to see it happening so often even in high school now. 

Plus the EDC is the same if not better competition than MN A. Most years it's a long shot for them to make it to state over Warroad etc so I'd say this year is def not the norm. Compare direct scores over the last 5 years if you disagree with that. EGF won the Gambucci for the first time in a decade this year.

Yeah I just wasn't sure if the game was just that far ahead

RR has been scheduling a few top end AA MN games every year now and has typically beaten them. Plus the Bantam AA grand forks team has typically steam rolled the MN AA competition for 5+ years now. I think there's no question a combined GF team would easily be top 10 MN AA year after year and likely top 5 most often. I think a lot of years RR and GFC on their own would do really well, but neither would have this season.

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.

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

I'd say this year yes it was. And I'm not talking non-con games and full schedule comparison. I'm talking EDC vs 7A. Most years EGF goes 1-3 or 0-4 versus GFC+RR, and top dog Warroad is usually on par with them. Then the top 2-3 WF/Fargo schools are most often better than the rest of the 7A. Go look at past season scores and tell me I'm wrong. 

7AA is a different story, but I'll never understand the 7A superiority complex when the direct scores speak for themselves.

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.
