Is AA/A here to stay???
Now that it has been a couple years, is the AA/A experiment here to stay or is there any chance of it going back? Personally, I'd love to see it go back to the way it was before. I'm just assuming a fundamental change in levels of play would have a review period to see if it is working or not. Thoughts?

The only downside is when MVI combine and then go single A. Selfish parents/board members. They must think that Mn hockey passed this rule for them. That way the North Oaks kids can win. Cheaters never win... winners never cheat. I feel bad for the D2 board. they have programs like FL/Highland?Maht/Rose playing AA. Then you got TWO AA high schools combined forming one single A program. Pathetic.
I'm just excited the HP 14s will be playing in Duluth the weekend of April 22nd. I wish more HP festivals would play in Duluth.Section 8 guy wrote:Tell me again what the downside of the AA/A split is again?

Eh, Roseville played A at PeeWee this past year as well.old goalie85 wrote:The only downside is when MVI combine and then go single A. Selfish parents/board members.

No surprise that MVI and Roseville finished 1-2 in the District above every other team with a AA entry.

My question is what is the upside? There was a reason why A teams didn't play B-1 teams before the split. I can't imagine Cloquet would want to play any of the those teams.

it would be great if the hotels in the Duluth area were not $250+ a night...I know there are a lot of groups that would like to do more there but cant afford to.
