I have heard that if you don't pay the dues for the ND coach association that you don't get considered and Peluso didn't pay the fees. This was from a Bismarck parent I know. Anyone know more about this?

what you just said pretty much sums up how much of a joke these awards truly are.

How can you say that these awards are a joke...just because your home-town team coach didn't get the award doesn't mean it's a joke. Bina took the youngest team in the state to the state semi-finals after not even making it to state the previous 2 years. How can you blame the state for giving him the award.

Well said, I completely agree! I did hear that Peluso didn't pay his dues though and that is why he wasn't considered.
i dont think his "young team" doing well had much to do with coaching. nothing against bina personally, but central was a very talented team...regardless of age. its no surprise they had success.
i would look to peluso. i mean he did bring a WDA team to the final and that speaks volumes although it is voted on before the tournament. hopefully bismarck's success sparks some momentum for hockey in the WDA. malm could have won it too...red river was not very talented at all this year and he did well with what he had.

Go Sioux wrote:Fact.... Red River was better than South. They proved it when it mattered. To say Red River won in state because of a hot goalie is foolish. The goalie is still a team member and contributed his part to the team winning. South was over-rated this year

You're pretty much a joke.
Game 1
Fargo South - 4 (34)
Red River - 3 (18)
Game 2
Fargo South - 6 (36)
Red River - 3 (33)
Game 3
Fargo South - 1 (36)
Red River - 2 (20)
The closest game Red River had with South was their second game in Fargo, which ended up being a blowout in favor of South. How was South overrated? They lost one game and you figure they're so much worse because of that? They walked through almost their entire lineup of competition all year long, and if you didn't think they were favorites going into state you're mistaken. Did Red River win? Yes of course they did. Were they more talented? No.
Your logic is like saying Moorhead was better than Blaine, Centennial, Bloomington Jefferson, Edina... etc etc. I feel your team should be more than pleased by sneaking away with a trophy this year, don't claim anything else. Mind you this is the same team that nearly got knocked out in the state play-in game by West Fargo...

Go Sioux wrote:Red River was the most talentedest team in the State of North Dakota. To say Fargo South is better is down right foolish. South proved Red River was better when they lost to them when it mattered most. Bottom line, Red River doesn't care about the regular season, as long as they get a big ring on their fingers.
