hah yet....you can make a statement that the blades don't develop players...where are your facts buddy?auld_skool wrote:That's one of the most inane comments I've ever read. You have no facts, no knowledge and obviously no time to know what you're talking about. Have a good weekend.Survey wrote:
Now your post makes sense...Do us all a favor and just state my kid was never looked at as being able to participate with the blades and I think he should have so I'll hold a grudge on them.
If your kid has an opportunity to play on that team I highly doubt you say no....and if you if you say otherwise your lying to yourself.

[quote="The Jackwagon"]Terry that is not true. Jamie McBain and Michael Carman were only with the Blades the first summer of the 88 team in 1997.
Bernie and Irv Singer pull the team out and became the Minnesota Spirit in the summer of 1998. In July of 1998 Bernie And Tom Carman were not happy with Irv and then finished the summer of 1998 as the Minnesota 88s. They played in two tournaments in August of 1998. One in Chicago and and the Stars of tomorrow in Minnesota. The following summer of 1999 was the first full summer of the Minnesota 88s and they were together though 2003.
Terry you had started as the team manager of the 95 team in 2003 so it would be hard for you to know what was going on in 1995 and 96 when the 87 and 88 teams were being put together. Your kids were in diaper or yet unborn.
I helped with the 87 Blades team also pulled out of the Blades after the summer of 1997. John Arko made that an easy decision.
The reason we went to Bernie to coach with Irv Singer is because Bernie had his 87 Pride team which was half filled with 88s. The Pride team was skating the entire summer that year. Kind of a ready made team.
John Arko, Bill Flikeid, Larry Bader Terry Moore never had anything to do with the 87, 88 or the 89 Teams. They never stepped on the ice once.
Terry here is an idea, why not put on those skates of yours on and do some real development. Jump on the ice with the 03 Blades and teach them a thing or two. Please make sure and get some video.[/quote]
Jackwagon...As an outsider with no skin in the blades vs machine debate I find it amussing the venom you have against TM based on your post above. So you still feel the sting after parting ways with the blades in 97....wow!

Jack:
You have your years mixed up.
Jamie and Michael both played for the Blades at the Brick in July, 1988. So did Erik Johnson, Tony Mosey and Peter Mueller.
The Spirit summer was 1999.
I can send you a copy of the old program pages if you want to see them.
I did start out with 1995 team in 2003. However, I also researched the Blades history in 2007. That why I know this trivia.
