52cent you must have some pull with the forum! I made a very legit response to your negative MM comment and they didn't post it. Liberals strike again! Orange. No pull I'm aware of. Negative commentary but true. Many would attest to these facts if they weren't worried about their status at MM. On t...

Correct Bulldog District 6 said that any players at MN Made could not also participate in Assoc. Hockey and Bernie sued them saying that was illegal and won. He has recently added Pee Wees and bantams will prob follow and Tier 1 seems to be a reasonable end goal with the pipeline. Pretty sure Berni...

MM Squirt Choice

Another MM thread locked. There was some good advertising in some posts and then when the other side comes out the big lock goes on. In politics and debates you need both sides for a healthy exchange. Must have pushed some buttons so here’s a modified post that should not lock up this thread: New se...

From what I know of the incident from Feb 12 and at the beginning of this thread.. There seems to be a common denominator with these two incidents: two brothers (one of whom is actually Pee Wee aged and doesn't belong in a Squirt league). In my opinion, if a player has multiple penalties for checki...

Heard the same from people that have gone to 1st Athlete. Opinions on the skating treadmill are varied. Some really like it but high end skating coaches I've talked to don't like it at all and say it creates bad habits. Cross fit is great for many types of athletes including hockey players. That ope...

McBain goes to Buffalo

The Sabres made one trade on a day that featured a blockbuster goaltending deal and drama at the top of the draft. Buffalo acquired defensemen Jamie McBain and a second-round pick from Carolina in exchange for defenseman Andrej Sekera. McBain, a 25-year old who's played three full seasons for the Hu...

Coaching Accountability

Someone it seems had an issue with the thumb sucking in the Jail Time for Coach topic and it got locked up. If a coaches style includes berating kids to get them to respond they do it because they think it works. There needs to be accountabililty to the the families of the children they teach. If yo...

Jail time for hockey coach

A Vancouver PW coach received a sentence of 5 days in jail for tripping a player during a postgame handshake. Martin Tremblay swept out the leg of an opposing player during the hand shake ritual after the game. A 10-year-old and a 13-year-old player fell to the ice. This was caught on video and is o...
