A lot of teams were in action in tournaments this weekend and posting some good results.

Don't let the Mankato Strength of Schedule fool you, they went right into the fire and competed with some of the top teams last weekend.

Minnetonka Black cruises to a nice win at The Gobbler.

Commentary

A YHH ranking rarity...a top-ranked team did not play and they move down a slot in the rankings. Chaska Chan has won 8 including five top-ten wins. OMG has an equally impressive 15 game unbeaten streak. The one catch is the Leafbirds only loss was to CC (10/11/25).

Hastings joins the PWAA top-10 for the first time since MN Hockey went to AA/A in 2013.

A lot of the top teams played each other this week and took swings at each other. Mankato does a good job coming in and taking on some Metro teams only losing in a Shootout to Edina (Green) they are #9.
