Zach is a great kid & had an amazing high school run. Unfortunately, I wonder if his best days are behind him. He was the BMOC at HM and a media darling, but he will now be just another kid playing Junior hockey. It will be interesting to see how he handles it all. I would not be surprised if he...

Thanks BLS!

Where can I go online to hear the game tonight?

What are the numbers of kids that do play AAA that never play college hockey??

FINAL

Was Housley behind the bench or was he with the World Jr's Team?

Body, you just explained why WBL can't beat HM, but why can't they beat Hastings or Moundsview? Are those allstar teams as well?

since 2005: HM 15 wins, WBL 1 So the only time WBL has won since 2005 was to go to STATE two years ago! :twisted: You would think beating an all-star team to go to State would result in success at the State Tourney. But the Bears once again failed to get out of the first round. Let me guess, they f...

Regardless of the outcome of next week's game with HM, those 2 will play for a section title and it will be a 1-2 goal game .

You never know. HM might get one or two..... They have reached out to Edina, Cambridge, and WI for talent in the past.

If you build it, they will come!

Says alot about the impact Coach Hill had on the program and what Guentzel's involement means. The switch of coaches needed to happen and glad Lucia "agreed" to the move.

How many of these AAA summer programs are nothing more than Kool aide Stands?....Kool aide, Kool aide for sale! I know a several hockey families that drink quite a bit of it.

They tried removing checking from the peewee level once before and it didn't last. Won't last this time either. Regardless of whom you blame; USA Hockey, the coaches, the players, the guy driving the Zamboni; like it or not checking is a part of hockey; always has been and always will be. Should be...

Very entertaining game and showed how much fun youth sports can be.

Irish That's the problem. You spend 98% of your time dealing with finances, fundraisers, and scheduling. Have you ever thought that spending more time focusing on development? I mean 2% dealing with the political issues? Why are there political issues? If everything is running smoothly then no one ...

I'm a little bias, but I like to goalie tandom at White Bear Lake Bantam A.

Nice win by the Bears. Two pretty evenly matched teams and appears that the rivalry will continue down the road.

I'm just wondering how many kids are really concerned about this issue. It seems to me that the adults (typical) are the ones having the biggest issue with things. I have spoken to number of youth players & the vast majority could care less what changes are made. They just wanna play. Relax peop...

We will have 2 kids playing at the Pee Wee level next season & both are looking forward to playing....checking or no checking. Kids will make any adjustments that need to be made. Hopefully the adults will follow suit.

I suspect $ played a part in all this (typically does). Rather than 1 site hosting a state Tournament, you will have 2. That means more hotels & restaurants will be making money for the host area. Not a bad idea. also, more kids will receiving awards, which always makes everyone happy.

Jolt,

Great post. Development isn't aimed at the player, it's aimed at the parent's wallet.

I would like to send my congrats to a great Season for the all bantam teams. But, need to acknowlede the special season the EP Team had this year - coming out with a State Title is no easy feat and those boys worked thier tail off every game, every practise. Ending up State Champs with a 51-12-3 re...

Finally someone agrees. FL is doing lots of things wrong. There is no commitment by anyone. We're happy being mediocre. It's who we are. Sounds like sour grapes from a guy who thinks his kid is too good to be a 3rd liner. You should get together with DMom who also seems to think she knows how to cu...
