Did they try out? How does USA hockey pick this team. Are these the best 96's in Mn? [I don't know this age very well]

Probably from the Advance 15 Camp in NY.

That's awesome. Anyone know if any of the games will be televised anywhere or streamed on any site?

I heard about this today. The first thing that came to my mind was how hell does this happen to a 15 year old.

First game

Here is the link to the winter games. I did look at Team USA Roster and he is no longer listed, they did add a player on 1-13 a Dman. If true that is real sad.

I really hope this isn't the kind of test I'm thinking of.

I'm guessing it was a standard drug test...

Anyone know why there are only 5 nations participating? Seems pretty low.

According to the report I heard...it was HGH. Really a sad thing.

Any MSHSL rules preventing him from rejoining his team?

Great question..If he tested positive for HGH then wouldn't that make him ineligible per MSHSL rules on HGH use?

If true it is sad and, based on the rules, he will be ruled ineligible for the rest of the HS hockey season. I've heard rumors for 4-5 years now of players, probably families, using various products looking for some growth during their youth hockey years.

I hope this isn't true.

But if it is its unfortunate for him that his family would make this decision and basically ruin any athletic opportunity for him.

What kind of fish are you hoping to catch?
I scanned them, it says nothing about sodomy either.

They do have a question about PEDs on the physical form.

:lol: Very sad and ignorant to say the least..... It'll be interesting to see the MSHSL's ruling on this. And also, what are the rules for his future USA hockey participation?

Me or Rudy?
Rudy is trying to say since it doesn't specifically mention HGH in the rule book, and HGH isn't classified as a controlled substance or a steroid. That there shouldn't be any punishment.

My example was probably not a good one, but there are a lot of things that aren't in the rule book that shouldn't be tollerated.
