Mayo Clinic Crossover Flywheel Study

Nice piece in the channel five news about the Crossover Flywheel (same guys as the ones who run the Monopoly).

They haven't been part of an alliance. They just changed their name to the flyers because they use the fly wheel and competitive edge a lot. It was the head coaches idea, hoping it might draw more attention to the training. They are going by the competitive edge flyers and will be playing in all the...

Ok, this is getting off topic. Bottom line, you have shared your perspective. It doesn't match what I have seen with regard to the ccm part.

Monopoly started a year before the capitals and ccm. I don't know the details, but this is how I understand it...

Those guys with showcase are the go to for the ccm sponsorship. The monopoly have an agreement with them to carry the ccm flag in the northwest suburbs.

My advice is to stay clear of any program associated with Easton or Bauer and try and find a quality not for profit program instead. You'll get more bang for your buck. OK Muck, you opened this up.....Give us your list of "quality" non-profit AAA Clubs. Lets not start w/ the Blades becaus...

Don't worry about the over-analyzing - that's what this forum is for! Couple counterpoints - Okay, so I may have over estimated the contribution from the Luverne kid. Fact still remains though that even if he was only 50% of the team's shots, puck time, etc. . . it still equaled zero (in two games)...

I also saw the entire second game and there is no question the Monopoly were the better team. Ummm, I am guessing that you mistyped here or something, because even given my bias toward the Monopoly there is no question that the Machine were better in 2nd game.

Hey ETS - not trying to jam your comment but you must not have seen the second period of that game (3 - 0 Machine). Monopoly may have had the overall edge in shots but 90% of them came from th...

I must be terrible at public relations as I continue to be amazed at the response my post has received. Two things that are apparently not getting through... 1.

First, the Icemen are a non-profit club, unlike some of the other AAA teams - particularly the ones playing in the Easton tournament/Alliance - so therefore none of us can be on their payroll. Hmmm, why then does Fairview, which is a non-profit, pay management 6 and even 7 figures a year? As a matt...

Legacy hockey fiction writers

Just curious who writes on the website for the legacy. It appears they have a bright future working for the Onion or maybe a fiction series. The information in this post was not even close. http://www.minnesotalegacyhockey.com/page/show/68562-1999 In reality shots were about 28 to 25 in their win ag...

I saw the championship game between the 98 Jr Badgers and the Thunder Bay 98's (Thunder Bay won 2-1) and I'd say that the better team definitely won the game. I wasn't routing for either team but by the end of the game I found myself cheering for Thunder Bay because the Badgers coach came across as...

Well if the question is "what is AAA?", then it is totally different...

AAA is Anti Aircraft Artillery. It is a ground to air ordinance that is part of a nation's strategic air defense.
