I am sure that there are many kids and parents that are concerned about Covid and the recruiting environment. I know that I had concerns about my kid when she was going thru the process and now am having concerns about another kid in another sport and this at a minimum 13 month dead period from Divi...

I expect Breck to be in the Section Semi again this year and am excited to see how Chisago Lakes does against them this week and again in Sections. My bet would be on Breck continuing its dominance but will be fun to see them challenged... Breck has lost arguably their 2 most significant players the...

My kid vacillates between the old school medical mask and the one that connects in her helmet. Definitely hard at times to see the puck at your feet thru the attached face shield but she sort of got used to it. Bauer also gave the team a bunch of their reversible cloth masks as they are a Bauer scho...

If you are interested in D1 college hockey this year this blog is a great follow for up to date games that will be televised (even if online) and has great recaps with highlights and more. The best spot for one-stop coverage before and after every hockey weekend this season. If your kid has ANY inte...

Might as well revisit this with something I read today. Hope that all are hanging in there... The excerpts below are from this article...I have not found a better writer/blogger for a womens team then Grant Salzano...the dude loves BC and womens hockey...it is too bad he writes almost exclusively ab...

It may have been posted prior to me but it is a combo platter of not so great in JR land. 1. I believe that due to storms 2 USHL teams not playing this season. The Madison Caps are due to Covid and the Waterloo team had their rink destroyed by storms. Both rosters have moved somewhere else which the...

I am interested in knowing what a "cutting edge HS coach" does that makes him/her cutting edge? I would not say that recruiting (as in recruiting players to your program) makes you cutting edge (that seems to be the kids and parents job) and could/should get ugly if the coach is involved a...

Anyone see that Guilday was invited to the USA Womens National Team Evaluation Camp (obv along with many other awesome MNHS alumni)? What an honor...also nice to see some different local kids on the roster than in past years...

To the surprise of probably very few, the out of state teams are really really struggling against the locals. Philly has managed a 2-2 tie against Tradition White (U19). The three games at the U16 level for MSP teams have gone 7-1, 8-1, and 12-1. Thanks for the update 88. Anyone seeing any MN girls...

I hope you don’t mean Randy? My kid would run through a paper sign at the start of a football game for him. He’s truly a cutting edge coach all the promoting on social media, building the program from nothing, calling coaches on our girls behalf. Rumor I keep hearing that he is in line D1 job proba...

same boat...thank you greybeard...plenty of information in the 41 pages for all of us to research when we need it.

Just heard about the recruiting blackout being extended to July 31st. Hope that I am wrong.

Has anyone been watching the Hockey Day MN reruns on FSN the last couple of Saturdays? I record them on DVR and then can fast forward if the games are not that interesting (like one a couple of weeks back with Stillwater & Tonka (I think). Discuss anything you want about these games. I will star...

Heard from a friend that his daughter (and her summer squad) skated last week at Dakotah Ice Arena. They had some rules set up about entering/leaving the arena (zero loitering and home dressing) and no parents were allowed in. A very socially distant/aware practice of mostly individual skills work w...

So dumb i missed that. Good stuff...thanks for your posting the link and then the content for me!

Lifetime Fitness has some pretty awesome FREE virtual classes...from strength to yoga...most hockey players I know (like my kid) would benefit by being more flexible...the yoga could be a great add on to other options 2x/week.

PhunnsieMc I cant figure out what that USA hockey link is...this is what Twitter says about new Blake coach... https://twitter.com/SportsatBlake/status/1254868987369775104 Also heard thru the grapevine that Kelsey Cline is going to be the Associate Head Coach. https://gophersports.com/sports/womens-...

All camps have been outright cancelled or "postponed" but I don't have high hopes that they will proceed at any point. It's worrisome from a recruiting standpoint...She had a very successful HS season but a lot of the east coast coaches don't get the chance to come to MN during the HS sea...

We bought some products from SnipersEdge about 5 years ago. We bought a tarp, tiles, and the passmaster along with 100 pucks and set up in the basement. https://www.snipersedgehockey.com/ The passmaster is the least valuable of the 4 items but has been used some over the years. In order buy the tarp...

Maybe good dryland activities that don't involve needing a net? Great idea! Lets share some things that your kids are doing during this time at home. Feel free to post links, podcasts, workout plans, shooting programs (I know shakes asked about not needing a net but we can expand this some from his...

Thanks for checking in y'all. Keep checking in.

Topic #1 is up...contribute something please...lets help out folks that might need it...

Any other topic ideas for discussion? (other than political stuff please!).

I know that this is a HIGH SCHOOL forum but there are people all over the place that lurk and post here. Here is our (my kid's) story in a nutshell and it will lead to the recruiting conversation.I started my time here when my 2020 HS grad was in 7th grade and asked for help deciding if she should p...

We ought to be able to have some decent discussions during this time. Please check in if/when you check this board (we know that greybeard58 is!!!). I am considering starting a question/thread of the week that could be helpful to others. I am guessing that there are plenty of people checking/lurking...

Any idea how many Visitation girls were playing? As of a year or two ago there was 1 or 2 SPU and the rest were Vis...at least on the varsity squad. There was a fair amount of unhappiness with player and that they were generally forced to play at the "Historic Drake Arena". I absolutely e...

Player in the crease had his stick in the goalie's lap when the shot came in?
