Top 50 PWA Players (Final Day)

Post by YouthHockeyHub »

Freddie knocks out his final 14 players. There will be a few disappointed kids (and probably a ton more disappointed dads) that they didn't make the list.

Enjoy,

Stay tuned next week, Freddie names his POY.

What a joke

Post by Stratal »

This proves it Freddie (Albert Lea) you have issues with Rochester and he has a vendetta against of them, he posts his spin on his hatred of that Program...NO KIDS in the top 50 from a top 13 team (that is laughable) Its a shame you cant overlook your Hatred and post honest opinions for Quality kids........You have lost all credibility on your knowledge of the Pee wee Hockey......Pleas go back to your hole in Albert Lea......

Real list

Post by FireChoice »

Stratal....right on. You are correct. We saw your team and you easily have a couple top 50 players. We have one that is easily a top 15, and he was left off too. Congrats to the kids on this list. But remember, it's Freddies list. Freddie proves here that his cowboy hat is too tight.

Thanks to Frederick for taking time to recognize some good players. I agree with several players that I'm familiar with, and I found the snippets on others fun to read.

Stratal and Fire-- take the time to list your own top 50. I'd enjoy reading about some other good players to watch.

These lists are just for entertainment. Nothing to get worked up about. 8)

Nice overall list, hard to argue any different only seeing a fraction of what you have seen. Of course some missing but a good list. I think most could guess player of the year = KF.

It's one persons opinion, not a combination of votes like an all-state team or something. Is it possible the kids didn't shine in the particular game Freddy watched? Does a strong team necessarily mean they also have to have a great player, or by not having the great player yet still being highly ranked, does that maybe indicate there is a good deep "team" of "nice" players that is well coached?

The title of the article "Top 50 PWA Players" makes it seem so definitive. Maybe if it were titled "50 PWA players I enjoyed watching in 2011/2012" it wouldn't cause such a stir with high strung parents.

Get a clue..Your missing the point

Post by Stratal »

First off It doesn't have anything to do with My Kid not being on the list (he didn't deserve it)

Congrats to all the kids which did make the list.

What it does have to do with is How someone could be so ARROGANT and Biased (Fredrick) to tout themselves as all knowing and say they are the best 50 players at the Pee Wee level (and people believe it).

The one gentlemen that said Top 50 players that Fredrick liked is more like it

What I have issue with is someone touting they know all and OMIT kids because of a issue with a certain Organization, That not writing.
And for shame for Hockey Hub for giving this person a platform to spew his Biased Agenda way to set yourself apart as a hockey forum and who prided itself in setting the bar at the highest level.....For Shame Tony Scott

He is a Aug 99. W/his age/ grade in school it's up to his folks what they want to do. I believe the board [my wife is on it] has left it up to them.

Freddie does a great job....at the end of the day, yes it is one person's opinion....Until you start putting the time in that Freddie does, yours is just a more uninformed opinion...There are MANY kids that could have been included on this list, that does not mean this is not a great list and take it for what it's worth.... Relax and enjoy... Thanks Freddie for your work and Congrats to all the kids on the list!!!

Congratulations to Stillwater and Centennial for reaching the top 10 and not having a single top player on their respective teams. Must be great coaching and/or great depth. Also among top teams with no mentions from Freddie are STMA, Roch, LVN, Woodbury and Roseau. We still love your passion for youth hockey Freddie. :D

I'll say this as a blanket statement. YHH is honored to have Freddie write for us. He represents what is great about hockey in Minnesota.

Is he perfect? No.

Credibility is something we shoot for in each post and ranking we make. This past year we made 200 posts. Only three caused a stir (Fargo Seedings with the Fargo Selection Committee, a Jack Jablonski editorial we published, and the Top 50 PWAs)...the other 197 got very little feedback.

Our editorial goal is to be the voice of MN Youth Hockey. In other words, say what people are saying at the rink but don't have the time or forum to say it themselves. A day during the season did not pass without someone saying, "Tony, you should write about this topic...."

Ultimately, we try to hit that goal with each post and do it in a way that is both light hearted and positive. We do not want the site to become the Jerry Springer Show.

This is laughable. To have 4 girls on this list. not one of the girls was in the top 8 on there team.

Lets just call it what it is. Top 50 photo's Freddie had.

P.S. Questions for Freddie. What is your hockey backround? Did you play? Where did you play? Did you coach? What Level?

Odds are Freddie won't answer any of these.

Fred,

Will NP dominate girl hockey in D6 for the next a couple of years?

Will FL and AV be top 10 teams in pwa next year?

What does FL being a top ten team have to do w/his list ??? IMHO no fl will not be a top 10 pee-wee.
