Seems strange that no scores were listed since late January, but it is now showing section seedings.

Doug is a hockey loving rube like most of us that gave a lot of time to the site. Retweets were incredible. A good way to pull off a site like that might be to crowd source it and we all contribute through tweets and score entry. The hub is like that only the HS coaches are the ones in control of their team pages.

I don't think his request for donations is uncalled for considering he has been very upfront that he's entered into this as a passion and requires a small return to keep going.

Absolutely agree. FTP is basically providing a free service. It doesn't hurt if you find value to throw in a couple bucks to make it worthwhile to the provider as a show of support.

What gets me is the people that complain about a service they are not even paying for like they are entitled to it (could be due to a lack of updates, technical difficulties with game video/audio, etc.). Maybe it speaks for the direction of society, but that's whole different tangent.

I was in Cloquet yesterday after filming some youth hockey for the kiddos. There was a guy dressed warm and normal with a sign he was holding asking for money to eat. I watched him from my car as I ate a half pound of flesh, a large French frie, and a 32 ounce coke. I went back to the rink and made a sign asking for money for all the work I do fo the kiddos. - NOT

It must be a metro thing. - begging and all that. 🤔

I didn't realize Cloquet was part of the metro area.

First time I’ve seen that in Cloquet in 12 years. It inspired me to go beg for cash for all I do for nothing.

Unreal. Hard to see people who are down on their luck living in Esko.
