Additionally, I have sat on the sidelines and simply read this board for the past several weeks to get a feel for what is going on in the AAA world. Some good stuff by some people that are well informed and/or simply have fair opinions. But I would like to respond to the handful of Roddy bashers ou...

[quote="DMom"][quote="TheJet"]Most of the development is practice related, probably why some other country's don't play games until later years. Tournaments are there to go after and win - especially at the invite level - a big reason why teams are allowed to pick up "other&...

Re: Blow up for EGO!

As I recall, didn't the 2000 Blades make it to the finals in Chicago? Not bad if you ask me. As far as last years 2000 coach being the "best coach in youth hockey in Minnesota" :shock: Ask someone how he's doing with a certain other team now. You are right on one point however, it's all ab...

Congratulations Blades! Good game. Top Gun Elite did well, especially against the Icemen! Monopoly could have beaten the Icemen had they showed up to play. What happened to the Icemen? I thought they were supposed to be so good, after winning the Meltdown and all?

I know this is a Peewee Choice topic, however, BM's Choice league is excellent, especially for Mites. Associations really lack development for Mites. When my son was in Mites, he could have played at the Squirt C level but couldn't because of his age. The Mite Choice league put him at the same level...

[quote="hockeyfollower"]After following this forum for the last several months I decided to go out and watch some of the games this past weekend. The Blades won the Championship 9-3 in a very well played game against a very good Top Gun Elite team. I was extremely impressed with the level ...

Re: Shake the Bush cont.

[quote="EXPRO"]O.K. this TTL person sounds like they are very full of them self, and likes to hear him self talk, or rationalize about nothing. Sounds like it 's the coach that keep getting fired. I wonder how many times he has used the players from his old team, on his current team. And i...
