So here we go, midway through the RIIL high school boys ice hockey season and the rankings are all shook up.
If you haven’t signed up to watch the action live and rewatch the games here is the link:
We are awaiting some seriously important games to be played in Rhode Island boys ice hockey, but until then this is how
we rank teams and players in all divisions.
Top Teams D1:
La Salle Rams - undefeated in regular season games and beat EG who beat Hendricken
East Greenwich Avengers - beat Hendricken, enough said
Bishop Hendricken Hawks - beat La Salle in a meaningless scrimmage, lost to EG in regular season play. Their game vs the Rams will have a lot of weight in playoff positioning
Burrillville Broncos - hit with the COVID bug, but still undefeated in the regular season
Smithfield Sentinels - sneaky good, great defense and goaltending, look out if their offense gets going
Top Teams DII
Portsmouth Patriots - points leader in DII as of tonight. Top 3 goaltender, high scoring offense - gets the Ws against the tough teams
NK Skippers - high scoring team that can play D
Cranston West Falcons-loss to Portsmouth and NK
PSW Co-Op - small roster, but knows how to grind out tough games
RMR Co-Op
Top Teams in DIII
Coventry Oakers - easily the best team in DIII, great goal scoring from freshman Collin King and Michael Laroche
