Yes they would then in turn move a kid up from the A team. Some associates don't allow this but typically this is the case there. Take last year for example...they brought up a few players after Kaske and Newhouse left.old goalie85 wrote:This is off subject, but what does Edina do if he leaves?

Jungels, Newhouse and Lawton left, Kaske stayed for the season - switched schools, but never left the Edina Bantam A team.Pinky wrote:Yes they would then in turn move a kid up from the A team.

Yes you are correct...mixed up kaske with Jungles and forgot about LawtonBluewhitefan wrote:Jungels, Newhouse and Lawton left, Kaske stayed for the season - switched schools, but never left the Edina Bantam A team.Pinky wrote:Yes they would then in turn move a kid up from the A team.

Not going to be close. First this is Minnesota, not Tennessee. Second, top Bantam AA teams, like the ones you mentioned are almost entirely 97s, Third, this team from hockey hotbed Nashville has bitten off a little to much playing Shattuck, Wayzata and Rosemount. A better schedule would have been Bantam A teams ranked 20-30. They'll be totally tired out and it won't be pretty. Maybe an ok experience for the country boys but I'll guess 7-1 four times.Wayzata Bantam AA team is going to play an average '98 AAA hockey team this evening, Thunder AAA based out of Nashville, TN. Rosemount going to scrimmage Thunder tomorrow morning. Thunder played SSM last night and lost 7-1 and play them again this morning. Interesting to see how a mixed squad (97 & 9Cool fairs against a real AAA team and not one of those so-called money grab AAA spring/summer teams.

Not seeing the Nashville Thunder in the rankings of 98 AAA teams.

Maybe because they haven't played 5 games yet but some teams have played 20.
Hey Observer how did 98 Thunder do against the mostly 97 all powerful Minnesota AA club, last night? I have no idea but regardless of the outcome you are going to look like a fool for your mindless prediction (7-1 blowouts) because you know nothing about hockey outside Minnesota. Keep your head in the sand fool.observer wrote:Not going to be close. First this is Minnesota, not Tennessee.

There is plenty of discussion here and really all over about youth hockey models in other states and people come to different conclusions than you about them. Because a person likes the MN model does not mean he is against reforms. I'm not high on the aa thing but I give credit to MN hockey for trying something different.
My personal suggestion would be to find ways to widden the base, bring even more kids in, bring back inner-city hockey. I think top enders already have plenty of challenges and opportunities. I'd almost really call that a non-issue. I've got no problem with allowing Tier I here or something similar, just don't think it would make a big impact other than on some pocket books and some parents obsession to keep up with the Joneses.
Drawing any conclusion from scores of a regional all star team against a few MN teams is pointless. I do think it is fun for our kids to face teams from others states though.

Think we can draw some conclusions. I think its great to see how MN teams match up with the AAA teams too. Would like to see a lot more of it! Tennesse and neighboring states don't have a great hockey population OR TRADITION, certainly not with the scale of a Minnesota. If they can put a team of 98s together to dandily compete with some top 97 association teams from MN and even get a win against SSM that says a lot.
It also makes a statement about the level of hockey that our top 98 boys are playing compared to other 98s around the country. You may not see it but hockey has progressed in a big way around the country and we are just starting to see the impact of that system as it relates to producing elite players.
