Personal problems with the owners and things just went down hill fast for the team. It all started last year.....sad to see it end that way. I know he fought long and hard to have the team.

No wonder I couldn't find anything on them. They are now the Grand Rapids Blaze.

Is it a hidden secret or something.... no one has any info. I'm just really curious what there team will look like this year. I've had fun in the past watching them.

I was looking today for some information on the Minnesota Crunch and their website is down. I had read previously they had some things happen and they were looking for more players. Anyone have any insight?

I know tryouts just ended today for the Thoroughbreds but was wondering if anyone out there knows who made the team?

I hope that everyone who thinks of sending their daughter to the Crunch gives it a thorough look. Behind the scenes has been so much drama. I understand any given team can be that way, but.... please ask for references, or do what you can to find out everything.

I am wondering if anyone has any insight as to why a few of this years current Thoroughbreds jumped shipped and went back to their former teams?

Yes she decided not to play this year, but no I am not looking to get her name out there there from it. I am just curious if it's something that is common or not and what reasons play a part in the girls decision.

I am curious how many teams have had girls quit this year that are pretty good? What do you think those reasons might be? I know there are always the ones that school and thier jobs become more important, but what else? I am wondering if the coaches they had were part of their decision? I know our t...

Ivy Smith, Emma Rucinski, and Kalli Funk

The cost to play for the Throughbreds is unknown... By that I mean they have the fee that you pay upfront. Around 2500-2800 or so. The travel is what can kill ya. They fly for the most part, and things have not been well organized in the past so sometimes your buying your tickets last minute. So you...

I see that 3 of the players that could still play opted to not come back to the Thoroughbreds. Does anyone know how common this is? I know there are a number of circumstances that come in to play at that level such as cost, injuries and such....

By the way you are right Mackenzie Saad is playing for Scholastica. I do know that Shelby Parisian is coming back along with Milner.

From everything that I have heard, Ivy Smith is not returning. There was talk of her playing with Centennial. Things might have changed and that might not be the case though.

I have heard of a few that made it: Stephanie Anderson Kate Beemer Kaitlyn Milner Raelyn Smith Shelby Parisian Kalli Funk Mackenzie Saad Molly Blood Audra Richards Liv Halvorson Lindsey Hibbard Not sure if the goalie from last year Lindsey Brown is coming back. I heard she isn't but... I think Paige...

I am just curious if they have posted who made the Mn Thoroughbreds this year.

We are a U16 AAA team in that practices in Blaine and at Brooklyn Park for the most part. We start mid april. We are in need of a goalie. Let me know if you daughter has some intrest. THANKS

Our AAA is in need of a U16 goalie. We practice for the most part in Blaine and Brooklyn Park area. Let me know if your daughter would like to join our team. We start mid april. THANKS

My son was going to take the spring off from hockey and now regrets his decision. I think most spring/summer leagues have had teir tryouts and signups for the most part. I'm just wondering if there is a team out there that might be looking for a Bantam / 95 goalie. He's got a great attitude and easy...

Our daughter would rather play boys hockey. She is in high school now so it's not really an option but at the youth level thats where she wanted to be. She didn't like all the drama that having that many girls together creates. She liked that it was usually a faster game and she liked the aggressive...

I like that there is options. I think that sometimes kids don't mesh well with the high school coaches for any number of reasons. There are a few options for girls that are a top notch player but you have to be willing to shell out the money for that. I wish I knew some girls that were in the U19 pr...

If you have a daughter that would like to play some spring hockey and is U16AAA eligable I have some openings on my team. We are with United AAA hockey. I am really looking for some good forwards. They are not having tryouts this year for that age range. So far we have some really good girls on and ...

Yes the Crunch did did just tie SSM and are better than what they are given credit for. One of their goalies is just on fire lately ( stephanie boemer ). I think the Thoroughbreds will be surprised when they play on that Friday against the Crunch. The Thoroughbred coaches don't look at the Crunch as...

Just curious without going into slandering them, which teams do you think need a change on the bench?

When you don't agree with the way the coach(es) is coaching your daughter and other girls too do you say anything? If you have, has your daughter suffered any consequences from it?
