 * If you are going to edit it further, please keep the guidelines at WP:NPOV in mind. --Carnildo 18:47, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Every state has a set of high-school sports leagues, and there doesn't seem to be anything that sets this one apart. --Carnildo 18:47, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. This is a list, not an encyclopedia article. Gamaliel 20:18, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep hockey leagues. (Including my local peewee league, if it ever comes up.) -- Un focused 20:23, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Keep, high-school hockey is big in Minnesota. Christopher Parham (talk) 21:28, 2005 Jun 8 (UTC)

 * keep this too please Yuckfoo 23:23, 8 Jun 2005 (UTC)

 * Delete. Neutralitytalk 05:34, Jun 9, 2005 (UTC)
 * Rewritten article - bolstered History; cleaned up article --Schulte 06:18, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Great work! So Herb Brooks, who as team coach took the US Hockey team to a Winter Olympic gold in 1980 in the Miracle on Ice (we've had an article on that for nearly two years), played in the Johnson Senior High School team in this league.  Neal Broten played in the same league and then played under Gophers coach Herb Brooks before going on to play 17 seasons in NHL and be inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.  Another Hall of Famer, Phil Housley, is also a Minnesota Boys alumnus. This is brilliant stuff! --Tony Sidaway|Talk 09:52, 9 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Weak keep although is that table at the end ok copyvio-wise? Proto 11:09, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * The table is pure data, and probably not copyrightable. A &#1080; D &#1103; 01D  TALK  EMAIL  23:35, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. Hockey is a way of life for many in Minnesota, and the HS tournament is very, very important. Article could use some more text (as in the history section) and less table, but it's a great start. A &#1080; D &#1103; 01D  TALK  EMAIL  23:35, Jun 10, 2005 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep. Primary author here...Minnesota loves their boys' high school hockey. A &#1080; D &#1103; 01D beat me to it, but hit the nail on the head with his way of life comment -- I couldn't agree more. --Schulte 05:47, 11 Jun 2005 (UTC)
 * Delete. Maybe someday, the collective users will remember that wikipedia is not a general knowledge base. Indrian 03:44, Jun 13, 2005 (UTC)
