Here is how District 6 teams will be seeded for D6 playoffs and how the Minnesota Hockey Regional Seeds will be determined which District 6 teams compete in a Mixed League with other Districts.

Seeding for District 6 Playoffs:

• Upon completion of regular season play, we will remove the non-D6 teams from the league standings. 
• The D6 teams will be seeded according to the D6 Only standings.  Example:  The top D6 team will have the #1 Seed, the 2nd highest D6 team will be #2 Seed, etc....
