Obviously to score 90 points, you have a lot of skill. Thanks for the link but when I checked it out they don't even have Lane's numbers on there. <br /><br />Unfortunately the ND-HS hockey website doesn't show who their players score/don't score against. Lane had Alex Phelps who put up big numbers and was invited to the USHL scouting combine so he must have some skill. Also Nate Baker in DL was averaging 2 pts/game.<br /><br />In Fargo, with ND news, we hear a lot more about Grand Forks Central/Luke Johnson than we do about Detroit Lakes/Tanner Lane...<br /><br />I can't wait to see Lane at tryouts (assuming he does come for tryouts). I was big on the thought of having Joey Benik come to Fargo last year as well but he didn't show up so usually the ND kids are more likely to leave than the loyal Minnesotans who like to stick it out in HS. Sometimes there are a few out there who do want to do what's best for their hockey career and make the shift to jr. hockey....hopefully Tanner does that as well.<br /><br />I love that the Force went out and drafted the kid and I hope he puts up big numbers for the Force as well.HockeyTrendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00288709335497320007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204655114770391061.post-12561282990068262372010-05-21T09:49:33.413-05:002010-05-21T09:49:33.413-05:00Tanner Lane was all Detroit Lakes had. He was key ...Tanner Lane was all Detroit Lakes had. He was key on every game. Most of the games I watched he had two guys all over him all the time. He still put up those numbers. If he had Gust and Purpur on his line he might have put up 200 points. Why do you think Johnson moved his kid to GF central? In both games against common opponents you pointed out and against Apple Valley, Luke Johnson had no points. And just as a tip for the future: You need to go to www.minnesotasportsonline.com to get accurate stats as that database is run by the Minneapolis Star and Tribune from completed scoresheets sent in by coaches. mnhockeyhub is not as complete unless the coach is updating them. I have noticed from time to time your stats are not right on here.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204655114770391061.post-68894389305514040962010-05-21T01:32:44.416-05:002010-05-21T01:32:44.416-05:00Hey Force Blogger,

I'll fix it. <br /><br />As for Steve Johnson's kid, he has the genes and he was a top scorer on his team as an 8th grader and improved a ton going into his freshman year. Never said he was the next Gretzky. His dad and his uncle played division one hockey and are head coaches in the USHL. I think GF Central was probably playing better competition than Detroit Lakes most nights. Look at Lane's point totals in games. <br /><br />Detroit Lakes beat Fargo North 4-3 and tied West Fargo 5-5 and lost to Crookston 4-3. GF Central beat Fargo North 5-1 and 8-1, and West Fargo 6-0 and 8-1. GF Central also beat Crookston 7-0 so spare me on the fact that Detroit Lakes was playing top level competition and plays a tougher schedule than GF Central's.<br /><br />Outside of Moorhead HS, I don't follow MN-HS all that closely because I am following 60 games plus playoffs of the Fargo Force... but I do watch the games on FSN and I did watch the state tourney. I thought I remembered Hermantown winning it this year and Breck last year but you're right Breck went back to back and I should've checked on that!HockeyTrendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00288709335497320007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204655114770391061.post-65999022370650017632010-05-20T16:58:13.188-05:002010-05-20T16:58:13.188-05:00We'll see how Johnsons kid does against some M...We'll see how Johnsons kid does against some MN talent next year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204655114770391061.post-85997681419650323992010-05-20T16:57:14.339-05:002010-05-20T16:57:14.339-05:00Is Tanner Kero trying out this season?Is Tanner Kero trying out this season?bladesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204655114770391061.post-54526798697905612382010-05-20T15:20:05.119-05:002010-05-20T15:20:05.119-05:00You obviously do not know much about Minnesota hoc...You obviously do not know much about Minnesota hockey as Breck was #1 all year and won the class A tournament.

Kero chose to stay close to home and play for Marquette in the NAHL last year, and ended up leading the league in goals, which is remarkable for a 17/18 year old. If he fills out physically, he could be a great player, and might be a sleeper for the NHL Draft.[/quote]Mr Ricochethttp://finishyourcheck.com/index.phpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8204655114770391061.post-76605209053319865922010-05-19T19:17:44.947-05:002010-05-19T19:17:44.947-05:00Funny things about Fargo's draft (short) histo...Funny things about Fargo's draft (short) history:<br /><br />Fargo's first ever USHL entry draft was Gavin Hartzog.
