Mark, Then, obviously, if we apply that reasoning, the Lakeville issue should be declined, as I'm quite positive it would be considered (without a plan in place) a "band-aid for every request that comes our way." Perhaps, but I am reserving my vote until the final argument on October 1. In the mean...

Does it make any sense at all that Buffalo is forced to compete with Moorhead, Roseau and others on the High School level and expected to develop players to compete when the majority of their youth schedule is played against the smaller Hockey communities in d5. Roseau's district schedule, Moorhead...

I'm not supporting nor condoning Buffalo's request. I'm just wondering why? Is it strickly to play better competition? To avoid traveling to Willmar, Hutch and LDC? Are they just ticked off at D5 and want out? It started as competition but was obviously travel. Now I think it is all 3. E70- Always ...

Re: Board hockey (aka rod hockey)
Now I am really old with no reflexes, but I am sure I (my team) would not lose. Probably because you're going to let your goons loose ... typical Bemidji tactics :) :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: No goons, just a goonie, me, remember team is teiam. :lol:

Re: Board hockey (aka rod hockey)
Some guys started talking about this in the 'Guilty pleasure movies' thread and it deserves its own. For all us kids who grew up before video games board hockey was king. A relatively simple concept using rods under the board to move the players it was almost as much fun as actually playing hockey....

Longest drive in D16, Bemidji to Hallock, approx. 150 miles - one way. Bemidji's road trips (one way) 25 85 115 85 90 150 131 140 100 Of course they only have to make those trips once a year. So that's only 1850 or so round trip. Bantam A's to round out their VFW schedule add trips of 85, 130 and 13...

Elliot, im puzzled here, if both districts have said NO, and the districts are a functioning part of Mn Hockey, then why did the VP step in and bring this through the back door, seems to me if both said NO , it should be done, PERIOD no questions asked, MN Hockey has opened a can of worms by doing ...

First, look outside what's being done now and make some changes. * Why 8 districts, set districts up using geography not number of teams, if 1 district has 8 teams and 1 16 teams so be it. Slot state tournament berths based on # of teams in each district so the total equals 16 teams at state. * No ...

god forbid you ask them to give a little bit more than they are used to. I know that if you ask for it you might get it. We pretty much roll the lines and if a couple of guys are not playing very well they may miss a shift or two. Otherwise we roll the lines and everyone has been on the PP and PK. ...

Mark, But without a plan, is it the best thing to do? This past meeting was Lakeville, who will present at the next meeting, what about spring? The door will be opened for anyone who believes they deserve to move. That's the idea, develop the plan by next spring. Next meeting is in January, so ther...

Bottom Line If the coach says get off the ice - no matter how it is signaled or directed prior to the game or period... players get off the ice. If players are not given the direction than they need to make smart decisions... two minutes is too, too long, unless this is a squirt game. Good things ra...

gopher one , maybe the board is looking out for the best interest of the district, if they allow one to go, whos next, still sounds like the back door route to me, cant believe if mn hockey allows this why anybody would want to stay on the district board if this is allowed , they have said NO, and ...

Re: A few good men
Elliott, I stand corrected that not all are paid. I too have volunteered for a high up Association level job. I was not paid and would not have accepted any. I also have refereed games in many sports. The pay is OK. The exercise is the main benefit. I have coached and they were the best times I eve...
