...where does the conversation of should these 2 associations step up and do the unthinkable of having 2 A teams? I couldn't agree more, puckfan! When 2 teams from the same association (namely Edina) are beating teams in the state tournament semi-finals by 6 goals? Face it... the talent is there fo...

Woodburry is easily going to take state and is going to walk all over the other teams. We are a machine!!!! I guess your "machine" broke down last night, woodburry. So much for walking all over Roseville. I, for one, am glad to see you didn't make it to the final. Though your team has pla...

Think about the benefits too: That youth team the poor boy didn't make because he slacked all summer now has a better player on the team to contribute. And, now the boy has had a quick kick in his pants he'...

I have to, respectfully, disagree with you, lxhockey and mnhcp. If a girl is believed to be good enough to play on a youth team, then she and her family should make that commitment and see it through, regardless of the team she ends up on. For those associations that have established girls programs,...

I witnessed a similar freak accident in a Jr. Gold game a few years back. An innocent, on-ice collision resulted in a player's throat being slashed by a skate blade, cutting him from just below his ear to the front of his neck, nicking his jugular, carotid and windpipe. While I think neck guards may...
