The MHR rankings are meaningless at this time, as everyone knows. It's silly to be discussing them. But just as a nod to how this board slants towards girls hockey, the Steel City Selects 16U team is #1 right now in Tier 2 Tournament Bound. Pens Elite Girls 19U is #14 in Tier 1 Tournament Bound, Pens Elite Girls 16U is #3 in Tier 1, Pens Elite 14U are #11 in Tier 1, Again, these rankings are meaningless at this time. I specifically doubt that the Steel City Selects will be anywhere near that high in three weeks. Having said that, as long as we are talking about local teams in the rankings, it seems only fair to mention the local girls teams, too.

Lets hear your thoughts on the first rankings release with our local teams.

Cool, cool. Do that, for sure. But you also seem to have an unrelenting desire to chide people for being negative, by your definition. You don't have anything to add to the conversation other than.....be positive! As nd a bunch of exclamation points.

Danner - Alot of these kids are getting cut by Pitt and IUP and may end up in D3 ACHA...............Time to launcn Slippery Rock in 24

Been saying that for years. Would be a great league of 6-8 teams. Because of egos I don't think it would ever happen. They are all pretty close. Call it the PHF (Pittsburgh Hockey Federation). It will never happen.

If you take out Pens elite in every one of these brackets, and Pens elite and Esmark in 18U, looks like you would have some pretty competitive local hockey. Especially at 16U and 14U. Also in general tiers don't seem to matter. Sorry - had to use my lunch break.

Most accurate, non arguable, post in years.
