I heard Edina is going with 2 squirt A teams but they will NOT be balanced (top 15 on one team and 16 thru 30 on a second team)...Maple Grove is going to do 2 squirt A teams but they are looking to balance them with 30 kids - not a good idea in my opinion...the basis for this is development which is...

...plus, NM only received a 6% vote in the survey so it is pretty obvious what people think of merging with NM...you can go over there though.

Ouch...must have hit a nerve...just pointing the dilemma of saying "hey, how about we join NM who has won 5 games in 2007 or should we go with a program that is having success"? Could care less about the trophies but the standings are a direct reflection of the effort that is put into the ...

I got the location part but there is not guarantee that little johnny will be able to play with his buddy anyway. Would you want to align the program with a community that is growing and supporting hockey (MG) or with one that is staying stagnant at best (NM)?

The best part is the North Metro vote - WHAT is that. Basically comes down to the Osseo guys think the MG guys are snobs and wanted to keep the orange and black (my son bleeds orange and black b.s.). Better off to be with North Metro than MG??? Osseo's numbers are crap - squirts thru bantams - squir...

Top Tier AAA Teams

We don't have Tier1 AAA in Minnesota but when association hockey ends we do put some very good teams together that can compete and beat registered Tier1 programs. Here is how I see it - there are becoming more and more AAA programs that are diluting the talent pool which will result in our state not...

Buttend - the interest is there from a number of the top teams across the 96, 97 and 98 levels. In order to firm up the list a invitation will be sent next week to the top teams. Probably not ethical for me to list teams that have an interest until the team submits a deposit. This is a non-profit ev...

Minnesota AAA Cup is a tournament that will be held the second week of September for 96 thru 98 birth years. Only 6 teams will be allowed in per age level - 3 game min and 4 game max. Since the local teams never all end up in the same tournaments the intent is to attract the best local AAA teams to ...

2008 Tier 1 AAA Regional Championship Tournament

Gauging to see what the interest level would be if there was a Tier 1 AAA Regional Championship Tournament. The proposed tournament would be sponsored by a Twin City based Fortune 500 company and be held in the Twin Cities the second week in September. Teams would consist of Tier 1 programs from Min...
