Not sure why they have Naperville Central up there twice. Either a mistake or Hinsdale Central???

Interesting I don't have much to complain about through the top ten though I think I would have bumped Fenwick up to eight and drop CLS and York one notch.

Naperville Central ranked #12 and #22, Hmmmmm.

I think that GBN is the most overrated team in the state, how are they 3rd? Viator defiantly should not be ranked 4th, and it completely blows my mind that Barrington got 7th. Fenwick 10th; are you joking, easily top 5. Where's Prairie Ridge in the top ten?

since they just lost to Rockford 9-2 on Saturday (their 3rd lost to the river rats), and have a record of 25-18-5, maybe it's because they don't belong in the top ten.....

As usual the system fails again! GBN, Barrington, and Viator all get more than they should. Fenwick, York, Providence and NPC get shorted. Coaches need to start looking at what league teams play in, who they've played, and results. myhockey is probably as close as it gets to correct. There is no perfect formula, but there are many poorly rated teams one way or the other.

And who the he.. has CLS played to get ranked that high???????? Wake Up!

maybe because pr plays the hardest high school schedule in the state. Not like these other teams that play in bull shit metro divisions. In the end it dosent matter anyways you have to beat everyone to get to the uc.

Barrington and CLS play in a shit league.

Not sure how they got the rankings they got.

Fenwick # 10 ? What are these people looking at on deciding rankings?

Typical Northsider Slant.

How can GBN be 3rd? =Second round loss
Viator Be ranked 4th?=Loss to Praire Ridge
Crystal Lake South 8(not even in top 20)? =Second round loss to Providence
Barrington 7? OK they'll Beat MC!but not Fenwick!
NTB 11=(25 maybe)=1st round loss to Npvl Cnt(Idiots have em listed twice).
Benet 17(30 more like it)?=1st round loss to Sandburg
Lyons Twp 14?=Marist will distroy

People need to understand that there is no AHIA "Commitee" that comes out with rankings. Coaches are polled, and from their responses the rankings are created.
This system is bound to be flawed, as you have coaches attempting to rank teams they have never faced. However, the only effect a flawed ranking can have is that some teams might get bounced in the earlier rounds than they would if they were ranked higher. When it comes to the later rounds of playoffs, rankings do not matter. NTG could be ranked 20th in state, and still have to face the same high-end teams later in the tournament to win the championship.

Let's not complain that the rankings are not 'objective' enough. They are not supposed to be! They are based on the collection of SUBJECTIVE opinions of the coaches.

well to prevent the coaches to rank teams they shouldn't use myhockeyrankings.com
The problem is that you have garbage teams playing in easy leagues that beat garbage teams and those coaches rate those teams high. You have quality teams that don't play garbage teams and or in easy leagues so it comes down those 10 coaches rating each other.
Example fenwick plays in cchl and hit very competive schedule then you have crystal lake south and barrington who play in the worst league in the state and beat up on garbage teams. So your garbage votes the the other teams high.

Is this the same poster who predicted PR in Final Four last year, when they were upset by York 4-3 in first round?

I like the PR coach, but unless he has some Herb Brooks magic, PR not likely to make it to Elite 8. But thats why they play the games, so good luck to all!

But Mundelein will walk away with the white division

AHAI made a mistake. Left out Hinsdale central. Switch Hinsdale and Naperville central

Fremd will beat Fenwick by 2-3 goals. Will beat barrignton in OT and then barely lose to LAG.

The rankings are terrible! Northside cooking at it's best.CLS #8?,Barrington #7?NT Blue #11,Sandburg #16 and Benet #17 but marist is #19 are you crazy?Has Benet won a game? GBN #3? this is 2010! Fenwick is not #10 Lake Park is #21? The whole thing is a joke and those in charge should be embarrassed by their effort. If coaches decide then it is their job to look at who each team played.
