Coaching. Take a penalty sit your next two shifts. What we've learned the last few years, as the game evolves to become a puck possession game, is that you cannot beat a stronger opponent shorthanded. What does that mean? Zero penalties is the goal. Get one and sit. Sounds like both teams have some...

I believe Mtka had 4-5 freshmen on the Varsity roster last year. All were very deserving, and played a lot of minutes...

This is really great news for the State of MN Girls Hockey! We have knocked on the door a few times, and now we have walked right in... The girls must be very proud of their effort!

Congrats to all!!!

Minnesota teams are a combined 7-1 after one day of games. Nice job!

Does anyone have any updates and/or scores?

Another issue that I see is that there is a stigma attached to the 14U "assignment". Most parents (and players) would choose to play Bantam "A" over playing JV on the boys side. I think that once the numbers are there on the girls side, it will be the same story. We aren't there ...

Royals D, he actually said both, I just thought the first one better describes the view from behind the bench...

You hit it on the head, though, it is all about building the program from the bottom up.

Vince Lombardi was once quoted "Winning isn't everything, AND it's not as easy as it looks"! Very true...

So I can't even get that right?!?
Sorry, had to...

No, Hiptzech, you got it right. I have heard you sing, and I would rather have you meditate, like you say you do

If I was a betting man, I'd put my money on the Knights

Wow, tough schedule. I heard that TBA has a pretty decent lineup this year, but I can't find their roster..... I guess they haven't announced the team yet!

Interesting discussion. Many well thought-out opinions that are fun to read (and read into). This is a trend that was forseeable when the transfer rule was put into effect. Because of this, it is a problem that will not go away soon.... It was only a matter of time before the pressure was put on you...

That is a nice, solid roster! I would guess that the last few picks had to be tough ones. Congrats to all of the players that participated in Mankato!

Has anyone seen the final selections for the Advanced 15 group? I'd like to see if there were any "politically incorrect" choices.....

They may not actually enact any official "rule". When across-the-board changes like this have happened in the past, the levels below college have simply waited for the manufacturers to adjust, knowing that the issue will take care of itself. Once the manufacturers stop making the over-size...

Another factor regarding this issue is that some of these kids are playing spring/summer/fall sports. Some independent teams feel that the kids should play other sports, so they run a "slimmed down" schedule. The team my daughter is on has 1-2 practices leading up to each tourney (they pla...
