and I apologize for being a bit glib but Hill fans enjoyed putting the game into "running" time for a bit in the 3rd.

I was at the game, BSM totally outplayed Hill in the first period but Hill walked away in the lead. The second period started out well for the Red Knights but their goaltender let in a bunch of weak goals, and the team totally fell apart. Hill got lucky, they didn't look sharp at all and were able ...

Personally, I think it's a family choice but I also think a coach and the association has a right to set the schedule how they see fit. Last time I looked, Deer Opener did not appear on the list of Federal Holidays.... It's a recreational activity, just like fishing, biking, golfing and knitting. I'...

Figure out what the talent level is in your association, then choose your teams accordingly. Year to year adjustments should be normal. Since WBL didn't win State in overwhelming fashion(or in any fashion), then one would have to assume that they were playing at the right level. Problem is ... some...

AA associations with five teams don't compare to those with ten or twelve. If your assoc only has two teams you probably have no business playing A-B. A-C, or more likely, B-C would be a better fit for you. The goal should be to match the kids up against their ideal level of competition. All the la...

What a mess...

MN Hockey is the governing body that creates a pilot program and then claims the Associations can do what they want. So, essentially everyone should have ignored it because they (MN Hockey) has opted out of any oversight responsibility and killed the pilot b4 it gets started absent any clear rules f...

Frankly it amazes me what associations get excused for relative to the behavior of coaches, refs, players and directors routinely. Somehow or other the normal rules of adult behavior in youth environments don't apply to hockey. Frankly, much of the stuff I've witnessed and had relayed to me by kids ...
