That is correct. A player who made the Bantam A team was kicked off and was replaced by a player who was cut to the Bantam B1 team. The parent of the Bantam B1 player then filed a complaint about the tryout process and was granted his wish. :shock:

Velocity Hockey formally the 92 Icemen and now has two very good squads with 96 & 99 Velocity teams is a great long term program. My son was a 92 Icemen for 4 years and it was the best development experience he ever had with that coaching staff.

I heard a family who is a big time lawyer from District 5 is threatning to sue Mn Hockey if they did not change the rule to equal time as the U14 girls. This family has 4 girls. Do the u14 girls chew up the ice as much as the Bantams? I think NOT

It will be interesting to see what this topic will be like in 2 years when both of there kids will be trying out for the Bantam A team. I have a feeling there will be many opinions then. Will they bring outside graders in that year? Seems to me that Rahn would have been the logical choice here since...
