Junior Fest is not a Minnesota Hockey event, it is a Minnesota Girls Hockey Coaches Association program and is run totally by the girls high school coaches. Place the blame on the high school coaches for the selection process, not Minnesota Hockey who is the governing body for amateur hockey.

The Women's Hockey Association of Minnesota has added 10% to their numbers almost every year. They had 80 teams this past season and register the most adult women players in the United States. The Minnesota Blue Js won the USA Hockey Women's National Championships at the A level, the Minnesota Blue ...

Jerry DeMeo, the newly elected secretary-treasurer of Minnesota Hockey, rewrote the conflict of interest policy and got it passed through Minnesota Hockey at the September 2008 meeting.

Nothing incriminating intended. As Joe Friday used to say, "Just the facts."

HOFam'r I believe you are absolutely correct in that development should be a choice of the participant and not an automatic charge. But there are individuals in Buffalo Youth Hockey who appear to have been as greedy as the banks, real estate companies and mortgage industry that has created the curre...

The NAHA team is registered with USA Hockey, however, their state does not allow them to participate in the playdowns to advance to the USA Hockey 19 Under National Championships. Minnesota Hockey allows the MN Thoroughbreds to participate in a playdown to advance.

Minnesota Hockey lists all of the tournaments that they sanction on their web site at www.minnesotahockey.org. They update it often as the season gets going, so look back at it frequently.

The Minnesota Thoroughbreds were formed in 1987. Minnesota Hockey was hosting the USA Hockey Girl's and Women's National Championships in 1988 in Bloomington, Minnesota, and we wanted a team that could participate at the 15 and Under and 19 and Under classifications. The Minnesota Thoroughbreds went...

The roster shows only 7 defense and 12 forwards, so I believe they are looking for someone to add to the defense. But, who knows for sure. They usually only travel with a 20 player roster and they have 21 players already listed as members of the under 18 team, so maybe they are planning to take a te...

There are 21 players from Minnesota listed on the National Festival roster list. That doesn't include Krissy Wendell who is getting married in August to Johnny Pohl. Minnesota will be well represented on all of the teams and into the future as well.

I don't know how it could be outsourced. It is a required function of Minnesota Hockey to hold the tryouts for USA Hockey's development camps at all levels, boys and girls. Minnesota Hockey will control and run the event. If you want accurate information, contact Barry Ford. All meetings of the Hock...

Looks like U of M incoming players West, May and Schoullis are doing well.

Minnesota Hockey is trying to add more 19U girl's teams. Contact Dave Margenau on the Minnesota Hockey website at www.minnesotahockey.org. The teams are combined together by Districts and have space for any player not playing high school hockey.

Hilary Knight was probably the only high school player on the U22 team. The other players were in college.

There are new opportunities for females to participate in international events on USA Hockey Women's teams with the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) announcing the inaugural U18 Women's National Championships set for January 5-13, 2008. USA Hockey announced at the Annual Congress in June t...

The guidelines are pretty specific, they cannot evaluate. Minnesota has always chosen not to have them participate, it just seems prudent because we don't want any compliance problems for the coaches. Besides, we want them here to view the players as much as possible, rather than working the event. ...

The evaluation staff was predominately D3 coaches in the past or individuals involved with USA Hockey/Minnesota Hockey coaching programs. In addition, USA Hockey has asked that past or present National Team players participate where available. D1 coaches cannot evaluate because of NCAA compliance is...

In Districts that are multi-state, such as Minnkota which is Minnesota, North and South Dakota, the Distri...
