Re: 2025-26 Early Departure Watch List

The MSHSL and Minnesota Hockey at this point should just come out and publicly admit that there are no eligibility rules based on where you live or where you played last year (or earlier this year). You can live wherever you want to now and play for whoever you want to. There are zero rules being f...

Re: 2025-26 Early Departure Watch List

First, this particular incident was not a MH event. So not absurd. Second, how many players in district 3? How many paid staff in d3? Third, if you know for a fact this is happening, why are you not reporting it to MH so it can be investigated? As my old boss used to say, if you are not part of the...

Re: 2025-26 Early Departure Watch List

"Returns to Edina" is funny given he played for Moorhead last season. Yeah, leave it to Minnesota Hockey to allow a free for all in youth hockey. This is not a Minesota Hockey controlled event. And MH (at least most directors) work very hard at regulating movement. It is discussed frequen...

Sorry on the multiple same posts. I got a message after posting saying the post didn’t post but then when I looked afterwards it did? My apologies.

Re: Cole Bumgarner

Seems like it would have been fun to stay at Shakopee, play in hockey day MN, go to state tournament with a shot to win it, get all the press and coverage you could possibly want as a player. Be the top dog at walking down halls at the high school hang with all your buddies, play some poker with bo...

Re: Cole Bumgarner

There are some other kids at the youth level giving him a run for his money. Younger Crowley will play at SSM making that his 3rd team in 3 years, the Stewart kid goes from Hastings err Woodbury err Edina err Shako and now I hear SSM too. The Stewart family is just as if not even more bonkers if yo...

Cole Bumgarner

Just saw online today that Cole Bumgarner (and his dad, of course) have officially done it: Bumgarner will play for a fifth team in five seasons in 2025-26—as confirmed by him playing for Rogers High School this past weekend in summer high school festival play. Let’s recap Bumgarner’s last five year...

Re: Official Coaching Openings - 2025-26

There are definitely parents who refuse to see the writing on the wall but to the point of these advisors all having ill intensions, I do not believe that to be the case. Sure they make a living doing this type of work but it could simply be about a kid wanting to extend playing a game he/she loves...

Re: Official Coaching Openings - 2025-26

One thing I think people who say “EP won’t get as many transfers as you think” forget what Lincoln does for a living. Working for an advising group, who more or less shop their unhappy players around to other schools in the offseason (I’ve seen it first hand, not specifically with Hawkeye but advis...

Re: Official Coaching Openings - 2025-26

If you have inside knowledge, then please spill the beans. There are two sides to what seemingly is going on in EP one side destined to bring EP back to its glory days by recognizing kids wanting to transfer in and allowing more say from key knowledgeable community and association members deserves ...

Re: Official Coaching Openings - 2025-26

Yes EP will never go back to its glory years of winning unless this new coach can recruit like a SEC football coach. My thoughts are the AD made a huge mistake with this hiring and the initial reaction will be more abandonment by key families. EP families probably wanted a "higher profile"...

Re: Official Coaching Openings - 2025-26

Spread.... The last time ??? You act like 2021 was 50 years ago.... Yes, I noted that the fall “happened quickly.” It will only get worse. Beginning with last year’s 2nd year peewees, the youth program is completely bottoming out. Crowley’s kid (2nd year peewee last year) “transferred” to Tonka for...

Re: Official Coaching Openings - 2025-26

So I know nothing about him, but I can’t imagine this is how those parents who chased out Twig saw this one playing out like this. The reality is Eden Prairie is a dying program. It’s going the way of other former powerhouses like Burnsville and Bloomington Jefferson. The city is fully developed, t...

Re: Section Changes

The Group of Death I just want to know how they managed to put Rogers *and* Buffalo in that section but not Maple Grove, not that that would’ve been much better. There should not be a possibility let alone a very good chance of top ten teams playing the the section quarterfinal. Rogers and Buffalo ...
