You can't really compare basketball with hockey that way. For a window of
time, Minnesota had a tremendous HS hockey infrastructure combined with a
big-name successful homestate hockey team. I know the East also had a great
infrastructure, but there are a whole bunch of big-name teams in the same
area looking for the same talent - relatively speaking, Minnesota was
isolated. Hence, for a time, they made the idea work. I never liked it
much, but I'm not a Minnesotan. I seriously doubt they could continue to
make it work with all the college programs in Minnesota (and elsewhere)
trying to draw from the same pool. That is, times have changed. Et Vive La
Change, eh?
