GFRR is going to have some struggles putting the puck in the net.  GFC clearly the favorite. 

I think GFRR will be fine scoring, they'll have enough depth to be right there.

Top 10 returning points as a team.

1	Minot	215
2	GFC	198
3	West Fargo	175
4	GFRR	147
5	Bottineau	147
6	Jamestown	132
7	Century	127
8	Mandan	109
9	Williston	97
10	Devils Lake	86

Watching EGF and RR.  What happened to Werre for RR?  Thought he'd be the guy this year.

2 entertaining games at the VFW in Bismarck last night.  WF over Century 7-5, North over Legacy 3-2.  Fun night at the rink, people got their money's worth.  There was a nice old school scrum at the end of the North/Legacy with 11 seconds left game too.  Veteran move by the officials...took one guy from each side and called it a day.

EDC may be more open than I thought.  Lets see how Central plays against EGF today.

Couple more good games out west today.  Legacy over WF 4-3 in OT.  Mattern is definitely explosive.  
 

North over Mandan 3-2.  
 

Went to both games, both were basically even on game play.  Mandan showed they outshot North by a bit but I felt North had a slight edge in possession.

Tuesday night will be interesting as Central and WF meet at Purper.  WF can definitely score, but will they be able to hold Central under 5 or 6?

Other games of interest include Davies @ Sheyenne.  Sheyenne was ahead of Roseau in the third period Saturday before the Rams scored three to win it.

That's going to be an interesting game to follow as is North and Red River.  Curious how those turn out after North and WF trips west last weekend.  Also curious to see what kind of run Mandan can give Minot out west.  9 games on the boys side on Tuesday, busy night.

5 games on the girls side that night as well.

What a night of hockey around the state.  With the web cams it's easy to follow it all.

RR beat North 8-7 in OT.  RR has goalie problems I'm told.

Central beat WFHS 9-2.  WFHS looking for a goalie too.

Sheyenne beat Davies 5-4.  Fun game to watch.

Minot beat Mandan 7-0.  The magi have a chance to be playing Saturday night in Grand Forks in February.

Those were the ones I followed.  I saw Williston was ahead of Dickinson and Devils Lake beat Grafton.

Jamestown was tied with Legacy 2-2 with less than 4 to go in third and took a 5 min major, then scored shorthanded, and killed the remaining penalty time to upset the Sabers, who beat WF in OT last Saturday.

I think all 3 Jamestown goals were breakaways as a result of breakdowns/turnovers and they took advantage of it.  

Girls side:

L/B: 1-0 over Minot

Mandan: 4-0 over Williston

GF: 5-0 over DL

Davies: 3-0 over WF

CHS: 6-4 over Jamestown

I wonder when the last time someone ran the table in the WDA if ever.  I understand Mandan had the flu bug ravage their team, but Minot was also out 2 really good players due to injury as well.  It's going to take a fluke for anyone in the WDA to beat Minot.  The wildest stat is I don't think they've won the WDA tournament since like 2008 (can't recall year but it's been a LONG time).

Jamestown has a new coach on the boys side in Jake Stillwell. I coached with his dad Mark when Jake and my daughter played together in mites and squirts. Mark coached the Jays in the late 90's and early 20's. Talked to some of the players about Jake and they absolutely love him

14 goals given up in 2 games yeah RR has some issues there.  The kid that would have been there goalie went to North Star this year.
