PIHL Alignment 2026-2027
It's essentially enrollment and the past 4 years results weighted by the division those results were in. Add those 5 up and get a total number https://cdn2.sportngin.com/attachments/document/b487-1896709/PIHL2019CompetitionPresentation.pdf?_gl=1*1drmaoc*_ga*Mzk2NDQwOTc3LjE3NTY0NjM4NTY.*_ga_PQ25JN9PJ8*czE3ODI2MDEyNzEkbzcwMiRnMCR0MTc4MjYwMTI3MSRqNjAkbDAkaDA.#_ga=2.10695091.66731282.1782601214-396440977.1756463856

PIHL Alignment 2026-2027
I am not 100% certain, but I believe canon Mac will remain at A and McCort will remain at AA. Unless McCort is done using players from Yuri. Otherwise I think the moves you listed look correct based on the new formula results they posted

Pa Hockey Governor’s Cup Events - 2026 - 2027 Season
I mainly just find it odd that you push all these good local tier 2 youth programs, then you also promote these goofy HS tournaments. I agree the local top end tier 2 is a better option than the faux AAA in many cases, but don't step on their toes by hosting HS tournaments while these tier 2 teams are likely playing games.

Pens and the Flyers
I think the pens had a very over-achieving season. I think their older guys realize where they are at and gave it their all throughout the season to put themselves in a playoff position. The problem is, you can't kick it up another gear when you have already been giving it your all for an entire season. Philly has stepped it up to a "playoff intensity" for the last month or more to get in, and it's showing that they are still playing at that level. The problem for the Flyers is, you can't do it for that long of a period of time and it will come back to bite them in one of the next two rounds.

Let’s talk about the Pittsburgh Vengeance
Ralph is a smart man. The preds non-profit status can offer a massive tax break for ice castle. Nothing illegal, just a smart man who knows how to dance around Uncle Sam.

Tryout Updates
I initially heard that esmark was not going to field u18 this year, but that could have changed once shaha and vengeance fell apart. Have to think a lot of the esmark guys went to preds with the coaching change.

In almost every case, any of the 1A champs would lose to the 3A champ by 10

National Bound
This thread is actually kind of funny. You wish the two teams who made playoffs luck, while secretly (or really not so secretly) hoping that all western PA teams fail so you could further push your agenda.

Pre Tryout Skates and Clinics
I assume nothing will ever happen. As long as they aren't openly evaluating players I'm not sure they can do much in terms of stopping them. Most of these teams are required to buy the ice as part of their contract with the rinks. What should they do with them?

2026 Penguins Cup - Pennsylvania High School Hockey Championships
It certainly shouldn't have been a goal. But at the end of the day the refs called it a goal so you have to play on. Had it actually gone in, but the linesman had missed an offsides on the entry it would have been just as much "not a goal". In a league where there is no video review there are bound to be missed calls that lead to goals. Sucks for TJ, but that's the reality of it.

Mid-Am Tournaments start today!
Anyone have a link to the tier 2 game sheet?

Coach hosting players at his house for "the ultimate private camp experience"?
I agree the link has no place, but the camp in general does seem kind of questionable. A special camp where you stay at his house and the only way in is to personally call him. I'm not saying anything bad is happening, but it does seem like he's opening himself up to more liability than he should. But at 1750 a head maybe it's worth the risk for him

16UAA Allegheny and NP game
I was not. But a number of the other "key words" are common vocabulary for many teenagers.

16UAA Allegheny and NP game
It's not that it's "fine". But if you've been around 14-18 year olds, it's most certainly not uncommon to hear these things said....
