There are risks in life. There are risks in our kid's lives. It doesn't mean we bubble wrap them and protect them everything. I hate to keep coming back to the Romans, but they said the same thing here too. "These Gladiators could get hit by a chariot walking down the street, are we going to ban wa...

The sport of football has weathered this kind of publicity before, in the late 1800's there was calls to abolish it. Nothing really new here and the game is more popular than ever. Of course it's popular. It's a very entertaining game and people love it. If you or your kids aren't the ones out ther...

So.........are there any other teams in 7A? My prediction hasn't changed much since the last update. 1. Hermantown-Loaded up and down the roster. The only question I can even conceive of for this team is chemistry. As long as they get their top six forwards in the right spots, then they will once a...

If Hermantown wants to stay in Class A that doesn't bother me even though it means Greenway has very little chance, if any, of ever going to state again. The point that I would make is that you don't know what you are missing by not getting to state for the AA tournament. I wouldn't exchange Greenw...

If your kid is not in the program it is easy to say. If you are in the program your perspective would likely be much different. Like I said couldn't be happier with the experience my boys have had in the association. Regardless, none of us in the youth program have any say to what the HS program do...

in my opinion the AA / A system is set up for only 1 weekend a year. State Tournament time. To get away from the A teams playing an All AA schedule, until section time, they should make it mandatory that if you claim to be an A team your schedule needs to reflect that. At least half, or more, of th...

Don't forget to mention beautiful downtown Hermantown. With its old world shops on main street. Reminds me of a Rockwell painting from Oldtimers generation. Exactly. What seems to get lost in Plante's "homegrown kids" monologues is that Hermantown is a suburb of Duluth. There are 3 AA schools (East...

All of them realize that they should be in AA and that the program is being held back. One of them even state...

Re: Class A:Top 10
Class A: Hermantown and Breck, with deep and talented teams, will prove to be the best in Class 1A. Their defensemen are as good as any in the state, regardless of Class A or AA. Both teams can survive any injuries that might occur. Their goalies will come along as season progresses, but will rarel...

Re: Go north
Hermantown would be the best environment for a transfer without question. They have more transfers there than any program in the State. So you already have a support group and community within a community. You don't have to worry about the coaches either because a lot of them don't live there eithe...

Re: Go north
Forget Metro. Go North and experience true Minnesota Hockey, where you play association hockey with your classmates, without nearly as much political bs. Moorhead, Roseau, Warroad, Grand Forks, Alexandria... pick one. None of these towns will target your family like you would experience in the Metr...

A talented Greenway player enrolled at Cloquet this year as a 9th grader. He now has transferred back to Greenway as of this week. When is he eligible to play for Greenway? His sophomore year or his junior year? He will be eligible for Varsity next year. Cannot play Varsity this year. Since he is i...

I'll bite, if you want the best schools/hockey programs, the west/southwest metro is the place to look (Edina, Minnetonka, Eden Prairie, Wayzata). You'll hear frequently on this forum about how awful/obnoxious/privelaged these places are, but don't listen to them. They are all excellent communities...
