Donkey,

I speak the facts, buddy. My knowledge is based on first hand experience.

Sounds like your son is on the '96 team and you've had a good experience. Good for you. But life is different on the younger teams where some coaches are desperate to inflate their stats.

Buyer Beware!

Good advice, Muck. I'll add my two cents. . . Before you write that check, find out whether the AAA program brings in kids to play in a tournament who aren't regulars on the team and who haven't paid to skate. Then, determine whether the coaches sit some of the "tournament" kids (who made ...

Shark, Interesting position--this Board provides folks with the opportunity to share information. You're clearly a pal of the '99 Torpo coach and that's okay. There are two sides to every story, but some stories should be shared. Sometimes the facts or (someone's perception of the facts) are far mor...

Getoveryourself . . . Don't confuse the Raging Bulls with Legacy. The buyer beware warning that applies to the largely unsuccessful and overpriced Legacy teams (any Legacy team other than the 96s and 97s) doesn't apply to the Raging Bulls. Sean Molin is a quality person and a great coach. His Andove...

Hex,

One small correction to your post. Blaine is not winless. Blaine beat D10 rival Anoka in a scrimmage.

Legacy Teams

For the 2010 season, Legacy Hockey will introduce an Academy arrangement for all boy and girl birth year programs. Each birth year team will consist of 25 skaters and up to three goalies. The coaches will select the rosters for each tournament from the team of skaters. The rosters may vary as determ...

mnhcp, This is a great idea. Some folks have been burned badly by certain AAA programs (not all), and I think we should all share info so that we make informed choices. There are some very good AAA programs out there, but there are some bad apples, too. Perhaps if we share our collective knowledge a...

I agree with fastncrash. The "96 Machine does not have a monopoly on the dysfunctional AAA hockey team market. The '96 Blades coach hasn't shown up for recent practices. The '95 Legacy team folded recently. The '97 and '98 Deuce teams have parents who openly and regularly bash those teams' head...
