So what happened was Rogers declared Peewee C and the coach of the team and all the parents went to the board and stated they did not want to play C. So they were allowed to opt up to play B2. In turn they did not have a good season. This was all done after tryouts were completed and teams were decl...

/[/quote] but the kid that didn't do anything that has to sit for 5 minutes is missing ice time.[/quote] I would like to make a point on this statement. It is not completely true. It is a calculated risk a coach has to take. If someone has to serve a major penalty for your player you can leave the b...

This is an interesting problem. But here is how I would handle it. PeeWee player are at an age where they are afraid to tell the coach something because they fear the "snitch code". So before the next practice have all the players dressed and ready to go 15 minutes before the ice time. Hav...

Well from what I have seen on this forum sibley must be the the breeding ground for the next NHL all star game. All the players/parents/friends come on here and pump all these kids up. My bet is they don't get out of their region. Which is sad considering all the said above people say they are "...

How bad is this conference? Did I just see Monticello lost to Prairie Center? And I cant imagine Princeton and Cambridge are all that great this season. I heard Buffalo is extremely down, but maybe a couple years away from being okay. Will not argue with you on this. This conference is one of the w...

The only way buffalo has chance on an upset is if half the Rogers team does not show up. 5-1 final score tomorrow night

Couple things I would like to add to this discussion. First, coaches need to do their part in practice of teaching kids what is an acceptable check and how to safely deliver it. Coaches also need to instruct their players on how to protect themselves from other players that are going to hit them. No...

IMO if the kid has not been called already he is not going to get any phone calls. All recruiting starts to take place as a 10th grader. So sorry to the Dad, because his kid will probably only get an offer from the MJ. Curious to know if you can give a hint to the team this father was from? Or at le...

Just an FYI. CDH did not win the Bronze divison this year. Rogers won it again.

Maple Grove has the ultimate equalizer. And it is the man standing behind the players. Collar gets a little tight at the state fair grounds every year.

Hopefully Monticello has their schedule cleared so they can actually show up and play all their games this tournament.

To expect kids to get zero penalties is a little unrealistic in my mind. Even the kids that rarely get a penality is bound to get one sooner or later. There is a difference between a "good" penality and a "bad/lazy/stupid" penality. Now if your team is having 15 penalities called...

Let me go out on the limb here and guess the game in question was a D6 game. The majority of refs in D6 are brutal.

Do you have a valid fishing liscense?

Congrats to him. To bad after next season Mankato is going to be in one of the worst conferences in the country with all the changes that will be taking place with the Big 10 and the NCHC.

Well it sounds like you are taking all the proper steps to make sure your child's future is safe. I would just listen to what the medical professionals say. If they say he can play and not worry about it then let him for for it, but if they shut him down then sounds like he has to listen. It is alwa...

First I guess you need to answer some questions. Is your child getting concussions from hockey or other activities? What level of play is your child going to be in? Is he wearing a helmet when he should be...for example if he is snowboarding, riding a bike, roller blading, etc. does he wear a helmet...

From the information that I heard, Monticello had a scheduling issue where they had not 1 but 2 District 5 games scheduled (one Sat and one Sunday). They tried to see if our team could take their D5 games but our kids were already in a tourny too........you would think that before the tournament th...

The game can go two ways and it all depends on how disciplines Rogers is during the game. If they go to the box like they did against Proctor Hermantown should win by 3 or 4. If they stay out of the box the game will be close. It all comes down to keeping the hawks off the power play.

No I definitely got your point. And you are right you didn't name names but you sure did not leave much to the imagination on who you are talking about. Everyone in the town of Rogers knows who you are calling out. You're an adult and he is a kid, so leave him alone. And you're right he probably won...

Not so sure they are going to killed in sections, yes M8 is down but the Rogers players have found their identity. They may have lost a lot of players, but two of them never played for the program so no loss there. The forward that left is overrated and is playing for some scrub team in Nebraska. H...

Donnybrook at the end of the Buffalo-Rogers game. Royals win 2-1, but both teams will likely be playing their JV at the varsity level next week. I was at the game and what a joke the ending was. It was a great game until the final buzzer went and the Rogers D went lumberjack on a Buffalo kids leg. ...

Yeah a .500 Bantam B1 team...how is their A team...oh wait they don't have one. They have no talent development in that town and I agree they will struggle for years to come. As far as Rogers goes they have lost a lot of talent from the Bantam A team from 2 seasons ago. 1 kid is in the USHL with the...

If a non D6 team such as a D3 or D8 team (where tethered mouthguards aren't required) plays a scrimmage on D6 icew/ D6 refs , will the referee call a penalty on our players as most our team has non-tethered mouthguards? Please advise as we have an upcoming scrimmage scheduled with a D6 team? Does o...

Obviously this is just a preliminary list, and a lot depends on who is going to loose kids to HS. So don't hang me yet, lets revisit this in October. 1 Edina 2 Wayzata 3 Woodbury 4 Eden Prairie 5 Eagan 6 Lakeville South 7 Duluth East 8 Apple Valley 9 Grand Rapids 10 Maple Grove 11 Cloquet 12 Minnet...
