Nice website. Frederick has found a great platform for his wealth of information on the Pee Wee age group.

Well done.

Nice story.

Would hope that their policy of citing kids names on their site changes.

Just curious as to what the big deal is about putting a kid's name on a website story in connection with a game report?

As long as it's done in good taste, what's the problem?

Its to bad the skill level can't truly be tested in a true hockey game with checking rather than an older squirt type of challenge.........as we all know, the game will be Totally differant when these kids hit Bantams. Nothing we can do about this now due to USA Hockey but maybe again start the conversation about the checking challenge. Two great programs with a lot of skilled players.........lets truly give these kids a venue to showcase their talents .......rather than waiting until we see how these kids handle checking..........in Bantams...

I don't know, for argument sake, let's just say its kind of weird talking about a specific little boy and how well he plays the game. There are two school's of thought: who cares, it's in good taste and dude, be careful.

I'm a be careful guy. We are talking about young kids, people can get testy on the topic, that's all. Seeing certain kids listed on the site just makes my skin crawl...I know I'm not in the minority on this one!

Respectfully,

Ben

#'s would be fine IMO, I somewhat agree with the no names, just too young.

Spoken by an Eden Prairie fan/parent.

Summer season is right around the corner and the Peewees will be checking again.

Then we should protest team websites with rosters on them. We should also ban parents about using other kids names when talking about how he / she plays a game, and take names and numbers off the back of the jerseys so no one knows who they are.......... I've googled my kids name and it popped up in multiple websites regarding hockey, and I have no problem with it. I see no problem using a kids name when respectfully talking about hockey. Even if you use the numbers its still as easy to pull up the team roster and see the players name.
