I believe EP has has 4 transfers on their team. Which i agree is a lot, but all but one moved to EP. The one that did not transferred prior to his freshman year, had played with the youth program, and his sister graduated from EP. Over the years, EP has lost more to transfers out than they have gained to transfers in. Including a sophomore goalie from last year that left for a private school.Wasilla wrote:If it helps, several of the seven elite "EP" players are fairly recent transfers. One of the largest HS in Minnesota (graduating classes range from 800- 650 students) has to rely on transfers to field their 17 man varsity hockey team?deacon64 wrote:Jimbo99 wrote:- absolutely agree!observer wrote:and most juniors, should be playing Elite D which was designed specifically for them.
STA, EP, Duluth do they all really deserve that many players...

Development problem in the association or is something else amiss?
Nothing amiss.

According to the rule I’m sure.
Here's the deal. Almost all are violating the spirit of the rule if not the rule itself. The coaches and ADs assisting are also violating the rule. There are players that made their school choice in 9th grade as they're supposed to. There are also players that have transferred and played a year on JV as the rule states. Now we have players, parents, coaches, ADs and school and MSHSL officials ignoring their own rules.
Almost all are violations and it's not fair to the families that followed the rules. Some have mentioned the Benilde Coach is in a leadership role in the State Coaches Association but chooses to violate MSHSL rules. That's not funny. It's embarrassing.

You are accusing Pauly of violating the rules which is a very serious charge. Do you know for a fact that the kids' families did not move, or that a proper exemption was not obtained?observer wrote:Almost all are violations and it's not fair to the families that followed the rules.

How come the Blake transfers have to play JV and the EP sophomore goalie transferring to private mentioned by OnFrozenPond gets to play Varsity his first year? Just curious on how the rules are set up. I might transfer my own kid it is really that simpleobserver wrote:Funny.

For me, several don't pass the smell test.
1. Transfer Student
A transfer student is one who discontinues enrollment and attendance in any high school, public or non-public, located in a public school district attendance area and enrolls and attends classes in any high school in Minnesota, or outside of MN. Essentially, a transfer occurs anytime the school of record changes.
2. Residence
For purposes of eligibility, a student may only have one residence. To determine residence for eligibility purposes, the public school district attendance area in which the home last occupied by both parents is located shall be considered as the family’s residence.
3. Change of Residence
A change of residence is the actual physical relocation by the parents or guardians of a student with the intent to reside indefinitely at a new residence in Minnesota and terminate all occupancy of a previous residence. The change in residence must be bona fide, include other minor siblings and involve a transfer from one school district attendance area to another school district attendance area.
For purposes of eligibility determinations, the residence of a student shall be the bona fide location of the residence and must include occupancy by the students’ parents or guardians in the public school attendance area. Both parents, except as otherwise provided herein, must physically reside at the residence on a regular basis for the duration of the student’s enrollment.
If married, residence is determined by the bona fide residence where the student and the student’s spouse actually reside.
In determining whether a change in residence is bona fide, a member school and the League may consider, but will not be limited to:
A. New mailing address of the parents or guardians
B. Voting registration of parents or guardians that coincides with the new residence
C. Driver’s license registration that coincides with the new residence
D. Purchase or rental agreements
E. Any other reliable evidence of residency

I heard that one of the Blake kids parents divorced and his mother moved to St Louis Park. Not sure on the other but I do know they are both following the rules so neither will have to sit. Pauly will follow the rules MSHL requires, unlike some other schools that have accepted transfers and the families have not permanently moved.
The fact that this is being discussed and there is any question about player eligibility is very disappointing in MNHSL. If families and coaches are skirting the rules to make kids eligible calls into questions intergrity of these people.
Simple case of a program being drain by this process in Wayzata, seam to always have strong youth program but come HS age and kids are magically enrolling in other schools.

Nothing magic at all about the process. Many kids have always gone to private schools and they continue continue into HS. At ninth grade, the kids make the decision and most stick with it (some do come back, but they play JV a year). I think things will change with the new HS coach. I predict going forward that less top talented public school kids will go private in Wayzata.Simple case of a program being drain by this process in Wayzata, seam to always have strong youth program but come HS age and kids are magically enrolling in other schools.
Wayzata loses more kids to Providence than any other school, but they are good, not great players who want a chance to play HS vs. Junior Gold. Not hearing a lot of complaints about that.

Hopefully Wayzata will start keeping the better players but that remains to be seen.
I heard young Pitlick went to Shattuck to avoid playing for
Bantam A coach again at the HS level. New coach made a big mistake
by hiring a Bantam coach as his d coach. Why didn't he hire Pitlick's father
(former Gopher and NHL defenseman), instead of lowly Bantam coach who was nothing more than a below average 3rd line high school Hack
Young Pitlick would have really helped the high school program.

The skill set of a good or great hockey player does not necessarily translate into the skill set required of a good or great hockey coach. Otherwise Wayne Gretsky would be the most sought after coach in the NHL today.steviewonder wrote:Hopefully Wayzata will start keeping the better players but that remains to be seen.

What about getting a residence in a new school district but "renting out " the old residence from where they came from?? Kind of fishy!!observer wrote:For me, several don't pass the smell test.

One of my favorite coaches I had back in high school was a guy who got cut from his high school team. Great coach, extremely knowledgeable, and had a State Championship on his resume as head coach of Blaine. Maybe wasn't a great player in high school, but he certainly was a great coach. I'm sure Pitlick would be a good coach, but experience doesn't necessarily translate into a good coach (ie. Housley...)Bluewhitefan wrote:Thats the only coaching candidate we can come up with - the kid's dad?

The best coaches are seldom the best players. Having played the game does not mean qualified to coach. Best coaches have seen in most cases were not good players or players at all, simply "good" coaches.MNpuckBlog wrote:One of my favorite coaches I had back in high school was a guy who got cut from his high school team.

Scotty Bowman could barely skate.... and is viewed as one the best coaches ever in the NHL.deacon64 wrote:The best coaches are seldom the best players.
