Anyone know the number of kids out with concussions playing MN Made Super Squirts? I heard they have quite a few. We had FOUR concussions in our association at the MITE level last year. I'd probably attribute that to a lack of control, both in skating and tripping, with lots of head first into the ...

Kind of goes against one of their biggest selling points. Outdoor ice is too unpredictable to be scheduling practices for late November when most citis that flood their parks don't even bother to try until the middle of December and stop maintaining mid February. I'm curious as to which Choice leve...

Next Big Thing? I don't know about that, but thanks for the plug!! If cost isn't an issue, go to all the tryouts you can.

Looking for MAX development!

My first post but I'm really trying to figure out which AAA team would be best for my son's development. I've read a lot about invite vs open level teams and am wondering if it would be better to be on a Top 5 Open Team or play on a less prestigious Invite team? There are a lot of AAA teams out the...
