Posted: Wed Jul 01, 2015 10:08 am
Congratulations to all the girls who move up in age classification today. My daughter is now officially a Pee Wee / U12 according to MN Hockey age rules.

Does that mean they can still play at 12's and still dominate?Mavs wrote:shouldn't have anything to do with AAAzambonidriver wrote:Now it makes sense, The machine orange 02 finally gets to play up according to the rules.

The U12 bracket for summer AAA is 2002 birth years and younger. The 02 Machine can stay in U12 if they wish. It's good that they aren't - they'd be wasting their time if they did.zambonidriver wrote:Does that mean they can still play at 12's and still dominate?Mavs wrote:shouldn't have anything to do with AAAzambonidriver wrote:Now it makes sense, The machine orange 02 finally gets to play up according to the rules.

So they wasted their time all spring? I heard they had to leave the state to get competition worthy of their ability.jg2112 wrote:The U12 bracket for summer AAA is 2002 birth years and younger.

My comment was to recognize that MN Hockey's age up day is July 1. Nothing more.
My opinion? Yes, they did. My daughter's team played them in the Meltdown and it wasn't a game worth playing. 10-0 and they took their foot off the pedal. It was 5-0 after one and I think the shot disparity was 55-3 or something similarly ridiculous.zambonidriver wrote:So they wasted their time all spring?

Will be interesting to see how they do in the OS shootout playing u-16 I think they play the 01 OS team first.jg2112 wrote:My opinion? Yes, they did.

Their pooled approach to training and tournament play (very similar to youth soccer) works well.
I don't think there is much let up on the pedal. In the 3rd period of a 10-0 game, those girls are trying out for a spot at the next tourney. They may be instructed not to shoot as often, but there isn't any coasting.jg2112 wrote:My opinion? Yes, they did.

Yeah, I agree with you. I didn't mean to imply they coasted. They played more system hockey at that point, but they were still swarming and controlling the puck.InigoMontoya wrote:I don't think there is much let up on the pedal.

Again it will be interesting to see coming up at the shootout. Their weakness has been goaltending and reacting to pressure. They went out and got a girl from Chicago to play goal for them in Canada and NY. When they are in close games they tend to play too much as individuals. In the Championship game in Europe this was really evident as they wouldn't pass to any non machine kids and it cost them the game.jg2112 wrote:Yeah, I agree with you.

Ultimately, that game might have benefited my daughter more than their team. Their intensity and skill motivated her to get going on her summer training.

they played at u-12 level and won the tourney's they were in by a large margin. Lost in new york will be interesting to see when they move up. The blades 02 have been playing 14's and so have the Ice cougars and 01/02 OS team all 7th graders which could have played at the 12 level. the 01/02. Os team have won the u14 tournaments they have played in pretty easy....Mavs wrote:Did that Machine team go undefeated this spring/summer?
Nope.01/02 OS team all 7th graders which could have played at the 12 level
Yes they could have they were all within the age determination Just like the 02 machine team.InigoMontoya wrote:Nope.01/02 OS team all 7th graders which could have played at the 12 level
The 02 players from the 01/02 team could play U12 but the 01 players from the 01/02 have to play U14zambonidriver wrote:Yes they could have they were all within the age determination Just like the 02 machine team.InigoMontoya wrote:Nope.01/02 OS team all 7th graders which could have played at the 12 level

U12= 02 and 03
U14= 01 and 00
The O2 Machine and 01/02 OS team are all the same MN hockey age but are not the same AAA ages.

they choose not to.
Half of the team (or whatever the breakdown is) is eligible ot play U12, the other half (the 01's) are NOT eligible to play U12
MN hockey age has ZERO to due with AAA age. AAA is 100% birth year driven and second year 12 has nothing to do with it.zambonidriver wrote:Mavs wrote:THey are eligible because they were all 2nd year u12's last year.
