TJ Roo 1g 3a against Simley. 14-12-13 25pts

There's no language in the USA Hockey handbook that makes this "illegal", but as Elliot70 said, call your DD and see if he gives this his blessing. Sounds like your real beef is with your association for making this mandatory and forcing you to pay for it, not whether or not it's "le...

That question contains a lot of ifs. Let me take a few of the ifs out and I'll give you a "hypothetical" scenario. A couple of weeks before the season starts the association president and a couple of "A" level coaches decide, on behalf of the association, to commit at least four...

Thanks elliot70!!!

elliot70, Thanks for the info! As a parent/coach/concerned citizen what course of action should be taken if an association requires the use of one of these organizations that is in violation of the MH rules?

"Off ice" and "on ice" are not considered the same when it comes to who is allowed to be included. muckandgrind, I am still not convinced! You haven't explained why there is a difference in that a person who is not certified and not the rostered coach/"guy in charge" i...

muckandgrind, if you go to the USA Hockey web site and pull down the coaching certification rules and requirements tab you will find all of the examples that I had mentioned. I am wondering why these organizations do not comply With USA Hockey and could youth programs be penalized for their lack of ...

Why all the hostility towards FHIT? Are you a former employee or something?

No, I'm a 25 year coach who's smarter then that!
Obviously you can not help me with this post, so is there anyone else who can? Thanks in Advance!

There are many associations across the state that are using off ice training centers during the season and I am wondering if this is actually legal by USA Hockey standards. If an association is using a facility such as Acceleration, Velocity or Fhit would these organizations have to comply with USA ...

Maybe they're at FHIT because they are the best players.

Maybe they're at FHIT because their parents have $1500 burning a hole in their pocket and they think that it might help them get their kid on a USHL scouting list!

Instead of speculating, why don't you go right to the source??? http://www.ushl.com/centralscouting/about.cfm Five of the eight Minnesota scouts on this web site have ties to the FHIT program. (That I know of or can see). Three of them are wearing FHIT hats, One actually says that he works for FHIT...

I heard that those who run the FHIT training centers are a big part of the USHL scouting team and that majority of the players that you see on this list have worked out at their facilities at some point in time. (Individually or with their association). Maybe this is why you see some players on the ...

who is this player your talking about? i didnt know SLP had any good players?

#10 Josh Bevers (Captain) - I believe he had 3 goals and 1 assist. I'm not sure if he is a good player, but it looks to me like he had a good game.

I posted this on the Section 4A??? thread and thought it would be a nice response to the "beat up on Totino" comment. SLP will return several key players, but I do not see any of them stepping in as the leading scorer, which is one player that will not be returning for them next year. I wa...

I watched the SLP/Totino-Grace game and I would say that Totino was out scored by SLP not necessarily out played or pounded by SLP. I give credit to SLP for winning, but the score did not reflect how the game was played. Totino started their back-up goalie, and did play sloppy at times, but they out...

Beaver....You are right and probably have a son that is in this situation???

I'm not sure yet! Let me ask my wife and I will get back to you![/quote]

I'm not sure if there will be many responses to this post during the season. Players who may be leaving might not want their associations to know before the end of the season. Rocking the boat before play-offs and catching flak for leaving may not be a pleasant experience and many players/parents ma...

One rule change that I believe has put the biggest strain on the coach/official relationship is the "Zero Tolerance" rule; I call it the "No Accountability" rule. Officials do not have to explain why they made a certain call and the coaches do not get to question the officials, g...
