name your top for 4 east teams and why you chose that.
mine are
1. Red River- They have a lot of returning scoring power even with the lose of Mark the "caveman". Reason I pick them for number one??...they are from Grand Forks. Yes I hate to say it but GF teams just always have something about them and they always find a way to win. This will be the team to take state unless their is a east team that makes a suprise.
2. South- They may have lost a lot of their big time boys that truley deserved that state champ. this year, but we all know...its South, they have a big enough school to reload every year in every sport. Too bad they are also one of the cockiest schools in the state. They will be tough to beat.
3. I say a 3 way tie. Grand Forks Central, Grafton PR, and Devils Lake.
Grand Forks had a slow start but you know what they got 3rd. Thats not so bad if you ask me. They have a couple youngsters that can skate and they will be tough again next year but not good enough for 1st place.
The little town of Grafton. They are a big hockey town and they will have a good year in my view even with the huge loses of kringstad and the campbells. But they will be led by the campbells linemate this year...forget his name at hte moment sorry. They have a lot of promising younger kids also. Grafton will be awesome for hte next 5-6 years. quick fact- Little Grafton has been in the state championship game every 4th year.
Devils Lake had a young team this year that was very hard working. They have a strong sophmore and junior class. Their goalie was 6th in the state as a soph. They may have the most disadvantage since having no experience in the east but it only took them 2 minutes to adj. to East Compition in the state tourny putting south and their heels and earning lots of respect. This year 3-5 place for DL. 07-08 season i would have ot say top 2 in the state.
every practice matters...but every game Counts
