Dissappointed not to see any Breck players on this list. Despite all the rumors that Breck is gonna suck this year the Breck Hockey team is still incredibly strong and has a lot of intriguing players worthy of mention
Wheres Andrew Habel or Cory Lushanko from chisago lakes or A.j Fossin Or Patrick Steinhauser or Christian Horn.
Not seeing Patrick Steinhauser on this list. Just an opinion, but he is probably one of the best all around forwards in the state and deserved mention. Had better stats (26-31-57) than most listed and is way underrated for his defensive zone play and penalty killing. If BSM goes somewhere this year, it will be he and Daly leading the way. Disclaimer - I am neither he or his parents!

surprised that TJ Belisle of St. Francis missed the preseason All Metro team. His 2009-2010 stats (26-34- 60) are better than most listed. Just in case people think those stats are a fluke he started the 2010- 2011 season with 5 pts (4G's-1A) . keep a close eye on this guy.
